X86 target does not provide any target specific cost calculation for interleave patterns.It uses the common target-independent calculation, which gives very high numbers. As a result, the scalar version is chosen in many cases. The situation on AVX-512 is even worse, since we have 3-src shuffles that significantly reduce the cost.
In this patch I calculate the cost on AVX-512. It will allow to compare interleave pattern with gather/scatter and choose a better solution (PR31426).
* Shiffle-broadcast cost will be changed in Simon's upcoming patch.

After r289755, the AssumptionCache is no longer needed. Variables affected by
assumptions are now found by using the new operand-bundle-based scheme. This
new scheme is more computationally efficient, and also we need much less
code...
llvm-svn: 289756
There was an efficiency problem with how we processed @llvm.assume in
ValueTracking (and other places). The AssumptionCache tracked all of the
assumptions in a given function. In order to find assumptions relevant to
computing known bits, etc. we searched every assumption in the function. For
ValueTracking, that means that we did O(#assumes * #values) work in InstCombine
and other passes (with a constant factor that can be quite large because we'd
repeat this search at every level of recursion of the analysis).
Several of us discussed this situation at the last developers' meeting, and
this implements the discussed solution: Make the values that an assume might
affect operands of the assume itself. To avoid exposing this detail to
frontends and passes that need not worry about it, I've used the new
operand-bundle feature to add these extra call "operands" in a way that does
not affect the intrinsic's signature. I think this solution is relatively
clean. InstCombine adds these extra operands based on what ValueTracking, LVI,
etc. will need and then those passes need only search the users of the values
under consideration. This should fix the computational-complexity problem.
At this point, no passes depend on the AssumptionCache, and so I'll remove
that as a follow-up change.

Summary:
This change adds some verification in the IR verifier around struct path
TBAA metadata.
Other than some basic sanity checks (e.g. we get constant integers where
we expect constant integers), this checks:
- That by the time an struct access tuple `(base-type, offset)` is
"reduced" to a scalar base type, the offset is `0`. For instance, in
C++ you can't start from, say `("struct-a", 16)`, and end up with
`("int", 4)` -- by the time the base type is `"int"`, the offset
better be zero. In particular, a variant of this invariant is needed
for `llvm::getMostGenericTBAA` to be correct.
- That there are no cycles in a struct path.
- That struct type nodes have their offsets listed in an ascending
order.
- That when generating the struct access path, you eventually reach the
access type listed in the tbaa tag node.

for LHS < RHS if RHS-(LHS of first comparison) is a constant then the loop will
iterate either 0 or that constant number of times.
This allows for more loop unrolling with the recent upper bound loop unrolling
changes, and I'm working on a patch that will let loop unrolling additionally
make use of the loop being executed either 0 or k times (we need to retain the

Repeated inserts into AliasSetTracker have quadratic behavior - inserting a

and when that number exceeds a threshold, declare the tracker "saturated".
This lumps all pointers into a single "may" set that aliases every other

The fix for PR28705 will be committed consecutively.
In D12090, the ExprValueMap was added to reuse existing value during SCEV expansion.
However, const folding and sext/zext distribution can make the reuse still difficult.
A simplified case is: suppose we know S1 expands to V1 in ExprValueMap, and
S1 = S2 + C_a
S3 = S2 + C_b
where C_a and C_b are different SCEVConstants. Then we'd like to expand S3 as
V1 - C_a + C_b instead of expanding S2 literally. It is helpful when S2 is a
complex SCEV expr and S2 has no entry in ExprValueMap, which is usually caused
by the fact that S3 is generated from S1 after const folding.
In order to do that, we represent ExprValueMap as a mapping from SCEV to
ValueOffsetPair. We will save both S1->{V1, 0} and S2->{V1, C_a} into the
ExprValueMap when we create SCEV for V1. When S3 is expanded, it will first
expand S2 to V1 - C_a because of S2->{V1, C_a} in the map, then expand S3 to
V1 - C_a + C_b.

Shifts with a uniform but non-constant count were considered very expensive to
vectorize, because the splat of the uniform count and the shift would tend to
appear in different blocks. That made the splat invisible to ISel, and we'd
scalarize the shift at codegen time.
Since r201655, CodeGenPrepare sinks those splats to be next to their use, and we
are able to select the appropriate vector shifts. This updates the cost model to
to take this into account by making shifts by a uniform cheap again.

As it turns out, modref queries are broken with CFLAA. Specifically,
the data source we were using for determining modref behaviors
explicitly ignores operations on non-pointer values. So, it wouldn't
note e.g. storing an i32 to an i32* (or loading an i64 from an i64*).
It also ignores external function calls, rather than acting
conservatively for them.
(N.B. These operations, where necessary, *are* tracked by CFLAA; we just
use a different mechanism to do so. Said mechanism is relatively

The cost model should not assume vector casts get completely scalarized, since
on targets that have vector support, the common case is a partial split up to
the legal vector size. So, when a vector cast gets split, the resulting casts
end up legal and cheap.
Instead of pessimistically assuming scalarization, base TTI can use the costs
the concrete TTI provides for the split vector, plus a fudge factor to account
for the cost of the split itself. This fudge factor is currently 1 by default,
except on AMDGPU where inserts and extracts are considered free.

It changes the legalization strategy for illegal vector types from integer
promotion to widening. This only applies for vectors with elements of width
that is a multiple of a byte since we have hardware support for vectors with
1, 2, 3, 8 and 16 byte elements.
Integer promotion for vectors is quite expensive on PPC due to the sequence
of breaking apart the vector, extending the elements and reconstituting the
vector. Two of these operations are expensive.
This patch causes between minor and major improvements in performance on most
benchmarks. There are very few benchmarks whose performance regresses. These
regressions can be handled in a subsequent patch with a DAG combine (similar
to how this patch handles int -> fp conversions of illegal vector types).

Summary:
This complements the earlier addition of IntrWriteMem and IntrWriteArgMem
LLVM intrinsic properties, see D18291.
Also start using the attribute for memset, memcpy, and memmove intrinsics,
and remove their special-casing in BasicAliasAnalysis.
