We give a bonus for every argument because the argument setup is not needed
anymore when the function is inlined. With this patch we interpret byval
arguments as a compact representation of many arguments. The byval argument
setup is implemented in the backend as an inline memcpy, so to model the
cost as accurately as possible we take the number of pointer-sized elements
in the byval argument and give a bonus of 2 instructions for every one of
those. The bonus is capped at 8 elements, which is the number of stores
at which the x86 backend switches from an expanded inline memcpy to a real
memcpy. It would be better to use the real memcpy threshold from the backend,
but it's not available via TargetData.
This change brings the performance of c-ray in line with gcc 4.7. The included
test case tries to reproduce the c-ray problem to catch regressions for this
benchmark early, its performance is dominated by the inline decision of a
specific call.
This only has a small impact on most code, more on x86 and arm than on x86_64
due to the way the ABI works. When building LLVM for x86 it gives a small
inline cost boost to virtually any function using StringRef or STL allocators,
but only a 0.01% increase in overall binary size. The size of gcc compiled by
clang actually shrunk by a couple bytes with this patch applied, but not
significantly.

instsimplify+inline strategy.
The crux of the problem is that instsimplify was reasonably relying on
an invariant that is true within any single function, but is no longer
true mid-inline the way we use it. This invariant is that an argument
pointer != a local (alloca) pointer.
The fix is really light weight though, and allows instsimplify to be
resiliant to these situations: when checking the relation ships to
function arguments, ensure that the argumets come from the same
function. If they come from different functions, then none of these
assumptions hold. All credit to Benjamin Kramer for coming up with this
clever solution to the problem.

Previously, MBP essentially aligned every branch target it could. This
bloats code quite a bit, especially non-looping code which has no real
reason to prefer aligned branch targets so heavily.
As Andy said in review, it's still a bit odd to do this without a real
cost model, but this at least has much more plausible heuristics.
Fixes PR13265.

of an array element (rather than at the beginning of the element) and extended
into the next element, then the load from the second element was being handled
wrong due to incorrect updating of the notion of which byte to load next. This

might be deliberate "one time" leaks, so that leak checkers can find them.
This is a reapply of r160602 with the fix that this time I'm committing the
code I thought I was committing last time; the I->eraseFromParent() goes
*after* the break out of the loop.

GV->eraseFromParent() right before the caller does the same. The existing
testcases already caught this bug if run under valgrind.

GetBestDestForJumpOnUndef() assumes there is at least 1 successor, which isn't
true if the block ends in an indirect branch with no successors. Fix this by
bailing out earlier in this case.

Fixes PR13371: indvars pass incorrectly substitutes 'undef' values.
I do not like this fix. It's needed until/unless the meaning of undef
changes. It attempts to be complete according to the IR spec, but I
don't have much confidence in the implementation given the difficulty
testing undefined behavior. Worse, this invalidates some of my
hard-fought work on indvars and LSR to optimize pointer induction
variables. It results benchmark regressions, which I'll track
internally. On x86_64 no LTO I see:
-3% huffbench
-3% 400.perlbench
-8% fhourstones
My only suggestion for recovering is to change the meaning of
undef. If we could trust an arbitrary instruction to produce a some
real value that can be manipulated (e.g. incremented) according to
non-undef rules, then this case could be easily handled with SCEV.
llvm-svn: 160421
All SCEV expressions used by LSR formulae must be safe to
expand. i.e. they may not contain UDiv unless we can prove nonzero
denominator.
Fixes PR11356: LSR hoists UDiv.

The demanded bit optimization is actually a pessimization because add -1 would
be codegen'ed as a sub 1. Teach the demanded constant shrinking optimization
to check for negated constant to make sure it is actually reducing the width
of the constant.

This patch removes ~70 lines in InstCombineLoadStoreAlloca.cpp and makes both functions a bit more aggressive than before :)
In theory, we can be more aggressive when removing an alloca than a malloc, because an alloca pointer should never escape, but we are not taking advantage of this anyway
llvm-svn: 159952
This means we can do cheap DSE for heap memory.
Nothing is done if the pointer excapes or has a load.
The churn in the tests is mostly due to objectsize, since we want to make sure we
don't delete the malloc call before evaluating the objectsize (otherwise it becomes -1/0)

another mechanical change accomplished though the power of terrible Perl
scripts.
I have manually switched some "s to 's to make escaping simpler.
While I started this to fix tests that aren't run in all configurations,
the massive number of tests is due to a really frustrating fragility of
our testing infrastructure: things like 'grep -v', 'not grep', and
'expected failures' can mask broken tests all too easily.
Essentially, I'm deeply disturbed that I can change the testsuite so
radically without causing any change in results for most platforms. =/

built-in shell test runner to support this.
This should fix the majority of fallout on Darwin, but I suspect there
will be a few straggling issues.

This was done through the aid of a terrible Perl creation. I will not
paste any of the horrors here. Suffice to say, it require multiple
staged rounds of replacements, state carried between, and a few
nested-construct-parsing hacks that I'm not proud of. It happens, by
luck, to be able to deal with all the TCL-quoting patterns in evidence
in the LLVM test suite.
If anyone is maintaining large out-of-tree test trees, feel free to poke
me and I'll send you the steps I used to convert things, as well as
answer any painful questions etc. IRC works best for this type of thing
I find.
Once converted, switch the LLVM lit config to use ShTests the same as
Clang. In addition to being able to delete large amounts of Python code
from 'lit', this will also simplify the entire test suite and some of
lit's architecture.
Finally, the test suite runs 33% faster on Linux now. ;]

The original algorithm only used recursive pair fusion of equal-length
types. This is now extended to allow pairing of any types that share
the same underlying scalar type. Because we would still generally
prefer the 2^n-length types, those are formed first. Then a second
set of iterations form the non-2^n-length types.
Also, a call to SimplifyInstructionsInBlock has been added after each
pairing iteration. This takes care of DCE (and a few other things)
that make the following iterations execute somewhat faster. For the
same reason, some of the simple shuffle-combination cases are now
handled internally.
There is some additional refactoring work to be done, but I've had
many requests for this feature, so additional refactoring will come
soon in future commits (as will additional test cases).

Original commit message:
If a constant or a function has linkonce_odr linkage and unnamed_addr, mark it
hidden. Being linkonce_odr guarantees that it is available in every dso that
needs it. Being a constant/function with unnamed_addr guarantees that the
copies don't have to be merged.

before the expression root. Any existing operators that are changed to use one
of them needs to be moved between it and the expression root, and recursively
for the operators using that one. When I rewrote RewriteExprTree I accidentally
inverted the logic, resulting in the compacting going down from operators to
operands rather than up from operands to the operators using them, oops. Fix
this, resolving PR12963.

This ends up forming sext i1 instructions that codegen to terrible code. e.g.
int blah(_Bool x, _Bool y) {
return (x - y) + 1;
}
=>
movzbl %dil, %eax
movzbl %sil, %ecx
shll $31, %ecx
sarl $31, %ecx
leal 1(%rax,%rcx), %eax
ret
Without the rule, llvm now generates:
movzbl %sil, %ecx
movzbl %dil, %eax
incl %eax
subl %ecx, %eax
ret
It also helps with ARM (and pretty much any target that doesn't have a sext i1 :-).
The transformation was done as part of Eli's r75531. He has given the ok to
remove it.

merge all zero-sized alloca's into one, fixing c43204g from the Ada ACATS
conformance testsuite. What happened there was that a variable sized object
was being allocated on the stack, "alloca i8, i32 %size". It was then being
passed to another function, which tested that the address was not null (raising
an exception if it was) then manipulated %size bytes in it (load and/or store).
The optimizers cleverly managed to deduce that %size was zero (congratulations
to them, as it isn't at all obvious), which made the alloca zero size, causing
the optimizers to replace it with null, which then caused the check mentioned
above to fail, and the exception to be raised, wrongly. Note that no loads
and stores were actually being done to the alloca (the loop that does them is
executed %size times, i.e. is not executed), only the not-null address check.

The primary advantage is that loop optimizations will be applied in a
stable order. This helps debugging and unit test creation. It is also
a better overall implementation without pathologically bad performance
on deep functions.
On large functions (llvm-stress --size=200000 | opt -loops)
Before: 0.1263s
After: 0.0225s
On deep functions (after tweaking llvm-stress, thanks Nadav):
Before: 0.2281s
After: 0.0227s
See r158790 for more comments.
The loop tree is now consistently generated in forward order, but loop
passes are applied in reverse order over the program. If we have a
loop optimization that prefers forward order, that can easily be
achieved by adding a different type of LoopPassManager.
