constant hoisting. It not only takes into account the number of uses and the
cost of expressions in which constants appear, but now also the resulting
integer range of the offsets. Thus, the algorithm maximizes the number of uses
within an integer range that will enable more efficient code generation. On
ARM, for example, this will enable code size optimisations because less
negative offsets will be created. Negative offsets/immediates are not supported
by Thumb1 thus preventing more compact instruction encoding.

Summary:
This fixes bug: https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=28282
Currently the cost model of constant hoisting checks the bit width of the data type of the constants.
However, the actual immediate value is small enough and not need to be hoisted.
This patch checks for the actual bit width needed for the constant.

Divisions by a constant can be converted into multiplies which are usually
cheaper, but this isn't possible if the constant gets separated (particularly
in loops). Fix this by telling ConstantHoisting that the immediate in a DIV is
cheap.
I considered making the check generic, but neither AArch64 (strangely) nor x86
showed any benefit on the tests I had.

At some point, ARM stopped getting any benefit from ConstantHoisting because
the pass called a different variant of getIntImmCost. Reimplementing the
correct variant revealed some problems, however:
+ ConstantHoisting was modifying switch statements. This is simply invalid,
the cases must remain integer constants no matter the notional cost.
+ ConstantHoisting was mangling alloca instructions in the entry block. These
should be handled by FrameLowering, so constants actually have a cost of 0.
Worse, the resulting bitcasts meant they became dynamic allocas.

See r230786 and r230794 for similar changes to gep and load
respectively.
Call is a bit different because it often doesn't have a single explicit
type - usually the type is deduced from the arguments, and just the
return type is explicit. In those cases there's no need to change the
IR.
When that's not the case, the IR usually contains the pointer type of
the first operand - but since typed pointers are going away, that
representation is insufficient so I'm just stripping the "pointerness"
of the explicit type away.
This does make the IR a bit weird - it /sort of/ reads like the type of
the first operand: "call void () %x(" but %x is actually of type "void
()*" and will eventually be just of type "ptr". But this seems not too
bad and I don't think it would benefit from repeating the type
("void (), void () * %x(" and then eventually "void (), ptr %x(") as has
been done with gep and load.
This also has a side benefit: since the explicit type is no longer a
pointer, there's no ambiguity between an explicit type and a function
that returns a function pointer. Previously this case needed an explicit
type (eg: a function returning a void() function was written as
"call void () () * @x(" rather than "call void () * @x(" because of the
ambiguity between a function returning a pointer to a void() function
and a function returning void).
No ambiguity means even function pointer return types can just be
written alone, without writing the whole function's type.
This leaves /only/ the varargs case where the explicit type is required.
Given the special type syntax in call instructions, the regex-fu used
for migration was a bit more involved in its own unique way (as every
one of these is) so here it is. Use it in conjunction with the apply.sh
script and associated find/xargs commands I've provided in rr230786 to
migrate your out of tree tests. Do let me know if any of this doesn't
cover your cases & we can iterate on a more general script/regexes to
help others with out of tree tests.
About 9 test cases couldn't be automatically migrated - half of those
were functions returning function pointers, where I just had to manually
delete the function argument types now that we didn't need an explicit
function type there. The other half were typedefs of function types used
in calls - just had to manually drop the * from those.

Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.

test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)

One of several parallel first steps to remove the target type of pointers,
replacing them with a single opaque pointer type.
This adds an explicit type parameter to the gep instruction so that when the
first parameter becomes an opaque pointer type, the type to gep through is
still available to the instructions.
* This doesn't modify gep operators, only instructions (operators will be
handled separately)
* Textual IR changes only. Bitcode (including upgrade) and changing the
in-memory representation will be in separate changes.
* geps of vectors are transformed as:
getelementptr <4 x float*> %x, ...
->getelementptr float, <4 x float*> %x, ...
Then, once the opaque pointer type is introduced, this will ultimately look
like:
getelementptr float, <4 x ptr> %x
with the unambiguous interpretation that it is a vector of pointers to float.
* address spaces remain on the pointer, not the type:
getelementptr float addrspace(1)* %x
->getelementptr float, float addrspace(1)* %x
Then, eventually:
getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %x
Importantly, the massive amount of test case churn has been automated by
same crappy python code. I had to manually update a few test cases that
wouldn't fit the script's model (r228970,r229196,r229197,r229198). The
python script just massages stdin and writes the result to stdout, I
then wrapped that in a shell script to handle replacing files, then
using the usual find+xargs to migrate all the files.
update.py:
import fileinput
import sys
import re
ibrep = re.compile(r"(^.*?[^%\w]getelementptr inbounds )(((?:<\d* x )?)(.*?)(| addrspace\(\d\)) *\*(|>)(?:$| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$))")
normrep = re.compile( r"(^.*?[^%\w]getelementptr )(((?:<\d* x )?)(.*?)(| addrspace\(\d\)) *\*(|>)(?:$| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$))")
def conv(match, line):
if not match:
return line
line = match.groups()[0]
if len(match.groups()[5]) == 0:
line += match.groups()[2]
line += match.groups()[3]
line += ", "
line += match.groups()[1]
line += "\n"
return line
for line in sys.stdin:
if line.find("getelementptr ") == line.find("getelementptr inbounds"):
if line.find("getelementptr inbounds") != line.find("getelementptr inbounds ("):
line = conv(re.match(ibrep, line), line)
elif line.find("getelementptr ") != line.find("getelementptr ("):
line = conv(re.match(normrep, line), line)
sys.stdout.write(line)
apply.sh:
for name in "$@"
do
python3 `dirname "$0"`/update.py < "$name" > "$name.tmp" && mv "$name.tmp" "$name"
rm -f "$name.tmp"
done
The actual commands:
From llvm/src:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh
From llvm/src/tools/clang:
find test/ -name *.mm -o -name *.m -o -name *.cpp -o -name *.c | xargs -I '{}' ../../apply.sh "{}"
From llvm/src/tools/polly:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh
After that, check-all (with llvm, clang, clang-tools-extra, lld,
compiler-rt, and polly all checked out).
The extra 'rm' in the apply.sh script is due to a few files in clang's test
suite using interesting unicode stuff that my python script was throwing
exceptions on. None of those files needed to be migrated, so it seemed
sufficient to ignore those cases.

This improves the X86 cost model for small constants with large types. Before
this commit we would even hoist trivial constants such as i96 2.
This is related to <rdar://problem/17070936>

This commit starts with a "git mv ARM64 AArch64" and continues out
from there, renaming the C++ classes, intrinsics, and other
target-local objects for consistency.
"ARM64" test directories are also moved, and tests that began their
life in ARM64 use an arm64 triple, those from AArch64 use an aarch64
triple. Both should be equivalent though.
This finishes the AArch64 merge, and everyone should feel free to
continue committing as normal now.

Currently the X86 backend doesn't support types larger than i128 very well. For
example an i192 multiply will assert in codegen when the 2nd argument is a constant and the constant got hoisted.
This fix changes the cost model to never hoist constants for types larger than
i128. Once the codegen issues have been resolved, the cost model can be updated
to allow also larger types.

There is no need to check if we want to hoist the immediate value of an
shift instruction. Simply return TCC_Free right away.

In the case where the constant comes from a cloned cast instruction, the

Implements the various TTI functions to enable constant hoisting on PPC. The
only significant test-suite change is this:
MultiSource/Benchmarks/VersaBench/bmm/bmm - 20% speedup
(which essentially reverses the slowdown from r206120).
llvm-svn: 206141
Originally the cost model would give up for large constants and just return the
maximum cost. This is not what we want for constant hoisting, because some of
these constants are large in bitwidth, but are still cheap to materialize.
This commit fixes the cost model to either return TCC_Free if the cost cannot be
determined, or accurately calculate the cost even for large constants
(bitwidth > 128).
This fixes <rdar://problem/16591573>.
llvm-svn: 206100
The immediate cost calculation code was hitting an assertion in the included
test case, because APInt was still internally 128-bits. Truncating it to 64-bits
fixed the issue.

This implements the target-hooks for ARM64 to enable constant hoisting.
This fixes <rdar://problem/14774662> and <rdar://problem/16381500>.
llvm-svn: 205791
A PHI node usually has only one value/basic block pair per incoming basic block.
In the case of a switch statement it is possible that a following PHI node may
have more than one such pair per incoming basic block. E.g.:
%0 = phi i64 [ 123456, %case2 ], [ 654321, %Entry ], [ 654321, %Entry ]
This is valid and the verfier doesn't complain, because both values are the
same.
Constant hoisting materializes the constant for each operand separately and the
value is still the same, but the variable names have changed. As a result the
verfier can't recognize anymore that they are the same value and complains.
This fix adds special update code for PHI node in constant hoisting to prevent
this corner case.
This fixes <rdar://problem/16394449>

Extend the target hook to take also the operand index into account when
calculating the cost of the constant materialization.

Originally the algorithm would search for expensive constants and track their
users, which could be instructions and constant expressions. This change only
tracks the constants for instructions, but constant expressions are indirectly
covered too. If an operand is an constant expression, then we look through the
expression to find anny expensive constants.
The algorithm keep now track of the instruction and the operand index where the
constant is used. This allows more precise hoisting of constant materialization
code for PHI instructions, because we only hoist to the basic block of the
incoming operand. Before we had to find the idom of all PHI operands and hoist
the materialization code there.
This also makes updating of instructions easier. Before we had to keep track of
the original constant, find it in the instructions, and then replace it. Now we
can just simply update the operand.
