Implemented CaseIterator and it solves almost all described issues: we don't need to mix operand/case/successor indexing anymore. Base iterator class is implemented as a template since it may be initialized either from "const SwitchInst*" or from "SwitchInst*".
ConstCaseIt is just a read-only iterator.
CaseIt is read-write iterator; it allows to change case successor and case value.
Usage of iterator allows totally remove resolveXXXX methods. All indexing convertions done automatically inside the iterator's getters.
Main way of iterator usage looks like this:
SwitchInst *SI = ... // intialize it somehow
for (SwitchInst::CaseIt i = SI->caseBegin(), e = SI->caseEnd(); i != e; ++i) {
BasicBlock *BB = i.getCaseSuccessor();
ConstantInt *V = i.getCaseValue();
// Do something.
}
If you want to convert case number to TerminatorInst successor index, just use getSuccessorIndex iterator's method.
If you want initialize iterator from TerminatorInst successor index, use CaseIt::fromSuccessorIndex(...) method.
There are also related changes in llvm-clients: klee and clang.

The purpose of refactoring is to hide operand roles from SwitchInst user (programmer). If you want to play with operands directly, probably you will need lower level methods than SwitchInst ones (TerminatorInst or may be User). After this patch we can reorganize SwitchInst operands and successors as we want.
What was done:
1. Changed semantics of index inside the getCaseValue method:
getCaseValue(0) means "get first case", not a condition. Use getCondition() if you want to resolve the condition. I propose don't mix SwitchInst case indexing with low level indexing (TI successors indexing, User's operands indexing), since it may be dangerous.
2. By the same reason findCaseValue(ConstantInt*) returns actual number of case value. 0 means first case, not default. If there is no case with given value, ErrorIndex will returned.
3. Added getCaseSuccessor method. I propose to avoid usage of TerminatorInst::getSuccessor if you want to resolve case successor BB. Use getCaseSuccessor instead, since internal SwitchInst organization of operands/successors is hidden and may be changed in any moment.
4. Added resolveSuccessorIndex and resolveCaseIndex. The main purpose of these methods is to see how case successors are really mapped in TerminatorInst.
4.1 "resolveSuccessorIndex" was created if you need to level down from SwitchInst to TerminatorInst. It returns TerminatorInst's successor index for given case successor.
4.2 "resolveCaseIndex" converts low level successors index to case index that curresponds to the given successor.
Note: There are also related compatability fix patches for dragonegg, klee, llvm-gcc-4.0, llvm-gcc-4.2, safecode, clang.

present in the bottom of the CFG triangle, as the transformation isn't
ever valuable if the branch can't be eliminated.
Also, unify some heuristics between SimplifyCFG's multiple
if-converters, for consistency.
This fixes rdar://10627242.

code can incorrectly move the load across a store. This never
happens in practice today, but only because the current
heuristics accidentally preclude it.

into Analysis as a standalone function, since there's no need for
it to be in VMCore. Also, update it to use isKnownNonZero and
other goodies available in Analysis, making it more precise,
enabling more aggressive optimization.

In theory this could be extended to other instructions, eg. division by zero, but it's likely that it will "miscompile" some code because people depend on div by zero not trapping. NULL pointer dereference usually leads to a crash so we should be on the safe side.
This shrinks the size of a Release clang by 16k on x86_64.

This commit includes a mention of the landingpad instruction, but it's not
changing the behavior around it. I think the current behavior is correct,
though. Bill, can you double-check that?
llvm-svn: 137691
In cases such as the attached test, where the case value for a switch
destination is used in a phi node that follows the destination, it
might be better to replace that value with the condition value of the
switch, so that more blocks can be folded away with
TryToSimplifyUncondBranchFromEmptyBlock because there are less
conflicts in the phi node.
llvm-svn: 133344
then we don't want to set the destination in the indirect branch to the
destination. This is because the indirect branch needs its destinations to have
had their block addresses taken. This isn't so of the new critical edge that's
split during this process. If it turns out that the destination block has only
one predecessor, and that being a BB with an indirect branch, then it won't be
marked as 'used' and may be removed.

I also changed -simplifycfg, -jump-threading and -codegenprepare to use this to produce slightly better code without any extra cleanup passes (AFAICT this was the only place in -simplifycfg where now-dead conditions of replaced terminators weren't being cleaned up). The only other user of this function is -sccp, but I didn't read that thoroughly enough to figure out whether it might be holding pointers to instructions that could be deleted by this.

instruction around, reducing work.
Greatly simplify handling of debug instructions. There is no need to
build up a vector of them and then move them into the one predecessor
if we're processing a block. Instead just rescan the block and *copy*
them into the pred. If a block gets merged into multiple preds, this
will retain more debug info.
llvm-svn: 129502
reachable uses, but there still might be uses in dead blocks. Use the
standard solution of replacing all the uses with undef. This is
a rare case because it's very sensitive to phase ordering in SimplifyCFG.
llvm-svn: 127299
Yes, there are other types than i8* and GEPs on them can produce an add+multiply.
We don't consider that cheap enough to be speculatively executed.

This makes the job of the later optzn passes easier, allowing the vast amount of
icmp transforms to chew on it.
We transform 840 switches in gcc.c, leading to a 16k byte shrink of the resulting
binary on i386-linux.
The testcase from README.txt now compiles into

sbbl %eax, %eax

which is simpler than finding a place to insert in BB.
- Don't perform the 'if condition hoisting' xform on certain
i1 PHIs, as it interferes with switch formation.
This re-fixes "example 7", without breaking the world hopefully.

first, it can kick in on blocks whose conditions have been
folded to a constant, even though one of the edges will be
trivially folded.
second, it doesn't clean up the "if diamond" that it just
eliminated away. This is a problem because other simplifycfg
xforms kick in depending on the order of block visitation,
causing pointless work.

when simplifying, allowing them to be eagerly turned into switches. This
is the last step required to get "Example 7" from this blog post:

On X86, we now generate this machine code, which (to my eye) seems better
than the ICC generated code:
_crud: ## @crud
## BB#0: ## %entry
cmpb $33, %dil
jb LBB0_4
## BB#1: ## %switch.early.test
addb $-34, %dil
cmpb $58, %dil
ja LBB0_3
## BB#2: ## %switch.early.test
movzbl %dil, %eax
movabsq $288230376537592865, %rcx ## imm = 0x400000017001421
btq %rax, %rcx

LBB0_3: ## %lor.rhs
xorl %eax, %eax

LBB0_4: ## %lor.end
