Cong Hou 1e3109066e Detecte vector reduction operations just before instruction selection. ... This patch detects vector reductions before instruction selection. Vector reductions are vectorized reduction operations, and for such operations we have freedom to reorganize the elements of the result as long as the reduction of them stay unchanged. This will enable some reduction pattern recognition during instruction combine such as SAD/dot-product on X86. A flag is added to SDNodeFlags to mark those vector reduction nodes to be checked during instruction combine. To detect those vector reductions, we search def-use chains starting from the given instruction, and check if all uses fall into two categories: 1. Reduction with another vector. 2. Reduction on all elements. in which 2 is detected by recognizing the pattern that the loop vectorizer generates to reduce all elements in the vector outside of the loop, which includes several ShuffleVector and one ExtractElement instructions.
