In `PPCGCodeGeneration`, we try to take the references of every `Value`
that is used within a Scop to offload to the kernel. This occurs in
`GPUNodeBuilder::createLaunchParameters`.
This breaks if one of the values is a function pointer, since one of
these cases will trigger:
1. We try to to take the references of an intrinsic function, and this
breaks at `verifyModule`, since it is illegal to take the reference of
an intrinsic.
2. We manage to take the reference to a function, but this fails at
`verifyModule` since the function will not be present in the module that
is created in the kernel.
3. Even if `verifyModule` succeeds (which should not occur), we would
then try to call a *host function* from the *device*, which is
illegal runtime behaviour.
So, we disable this entire range of possibilities by simply not allowing
function references within a `Scop` which corresponds to a kernel.
However, note that this is too conservative. We *can* allow intrinsics
within kernels if the backend can lower the intrinsic correctly. For
example, an intrinsic like `llvm.powi.*` can actually be lowered by the `NVPTX`
backend.
We will now gradually whitelist intrinsics which are known to be safe.

Summary: PPCGCodeGeneration now attaches the size of the kernel launch parameters at the end of the parameter list. For the existing CUDA Runtime, this gets ignored, but the OpenCL Runtime knows to check for kernel-argument size at the end of the parameter list. (The resulting parameters list is twice as long. This has been accounted for in the corresponding test cases).

Summary:
When compiling for GPU, one can now choose to compile for OpenCL or CUDA,
with the corresponding polly-gpu-runtime flag (libopencl / libcudart). The
GPURuntime library (GPUJIT) has been extended with the OpenCL Runtime library
for that purpose, correctly choosing the corresponding library calls to the
option chosen when compiling (via different initialization calls).
Additionally, a specific GPU Target architecture can now be chosen with -polly-gpu-arch (only nvptx64 implemented thus far).

This needs changes to GPURuntime to expose synchronization between host
and device.
1. Needs better function naming, I want a better name than
"getOrCreateManagedDeviceArray"
2. DeviceAllocations is used by both the managed memory and the
non-managed memory path. This exploits the fact that the two code paths
are never run together. I'm not sure if this is the best design decision

Added a small change to the way pointer arguments are set in the kernel
code generation. The way the pointer is retrieved now, specifically requests
global address space to be annotated. This is necessary, if the IR should be
run through NVPTX to generate OpenCL compatible PTX.
The changes do not affect the PTX Strings generated for the CUDA target
(nvptx64-nvidia-cuda), but are necessary for OpenCL (nvptx64-nvidia-nvcl).
Additionally, the data layout has been updated to what the NVPTX Backend requests/recommends.

There is no point in optimizing unreachable code, hence our test cases should
always return.
This commit is part of a series that makes Polly more robust on the presence of
unreachables.
llvm-svn: 297147
Some Polly ACC test cases fail without a working NVPTX backend. We explicitly
specify this dependence in REQUIRES. Alternatively, we could have only marked
polly-acc as supported in case the NVPTX backend is available, but as we might
use other backends in the future, this does not seem to be the best choice.
For this to work, we also need to make the 'targets_to_build' information
available.

In case sequential kernels are found deeper in the loop tree than any parallel
kernel, the overall scop is probably mostly sequential. Hence, run it on the
CPU.
llvm-svn: 281849
Offloading to a GPU is only beneficial if there is a sufficient amount of
compute that can be accelerated. Many kernels just have a very small number
of dynamic compute, which means GPU acceleration is not beneficial. We
compute at run-time an approximation of how many dynamic instructions will be
executed and fall back to CPU code in case this number is not sufficiently
large. To keep the run-time checking code simple, we over-approximate the
number of instructions executed in each statement by computing the volume of
the rectangular hull of its iteration space.
llvm-svn: 281848
We may generate GPU kernels that store into scalars in case we run some
sequential code on the GPU because the remaining data is expected to already be
on the GPU. For these kernels it is important to not keep the scalar values
in thread-local registers, but to store them back to the corresponding device
memory objects that backs them up.
We currently only store scalars back at the end of a kernel. This is only
correct if precisely one thread is executed. In case more than one thread may
be run, we currently invalidate the scop. To support such cases correctly,
we would need to always load and store back from a corresponding global
memory slot instead of a thread-local alloca slot.
llvm-svn: 281838
Our alias checks precisely check that the minimal and maximal accessed elements
do not overlap in a kernel. Hence, we must ensure that our host <-> device
transfers do not touch additional memory locations that are not covered in
the alias check. To ensure this, we make sure that the data we copy for a
given array is only the data from the smallest element accessed to the largest
element accessed.
We also adjust the size of the array according to the offset at which the array
is actually accessed.
An interesting result of this is: In case array are accessed with negative
subscripts ,e.g., A[-100], we automatically allocate and transfer _more_ data to
cover the full array. This is important as such code indeed exists in the wild.
llvm-svn: 281611
Instead of aborting, we now bail out gracefully in case the kernel IR we
generate is invalid. This can currently happen in case the SCoP stores
pointer values, which we model as arrays, as data values into other arrays. In
this case, the original pointer value is not available on the device and can
consequently not be stored. As detecting this ahead of time is not so easy, we
detect these situations after the invalid IR has been generated and bail out.
llvm-svn: 281193
If these arrays have never been accessed we failed to derive an upper bound
of the accesses and consequently a size for the outermost dimension. We
now explicitly check for empty access sets and then just use zero as size
for the outermost dimension.
llvm-svn: 281165
To do so we change the way array exents are computed. Instead of the precise
set of memory locations accessed, we now compute the extent as the range between
minimal and maximal address in the first dimension and the full extent defined
by the sizes of the inner array dimensions.
We also move the computation of the may_persist region after the construction
of the arrays, as it relies on array information. Without arrays being
constructed no useful information is computed at all.
llvm-svn: 278212
Ensure the right scalar allocations are used as the host location of data
transfers. For the device code, we clear the allocation cache before device
code generation to be able to generate new device-specific allocation and
we need to make sure to add back the old host allocations as soon as the
device code generation is finished.
llvm-svn: 278126
This increases the readability of the IR and also clarifies that the GPU
inititialization is executed _after_ the scalar initialization which needs
to before the code of the transformed scop is executed.
Besides increased readability, the IR should not change. Specifically, I
do not expect any changes in program semantics due to this patch.

After having generated the code for a ScopStmt, we run a simple dead-code
elimination that drops all instructions that are known to be and remain unused.
Until this change, we only considered instructions for dead-code elimination, if
they have a corresponding instruction in the original BB that belongs to
ScopStmt. However, when generating code we do not only copy code from the BB
belonging to a ScopStmt, but also generate code for operands referenced from BB.
After this change, we now also considers code for dead code elimination, which
does not have a corresponding instruction in BB.
This fixes a bug in Polly-ACC where such dead-code referenced CPU code from
within a GPU kernel, which is possible as we do not guarantee that all variables
that are used in known-dead-code are moved to the GPU.
llvm-svn: 278103
When adding code that avoids to pass values used in isl expressions and
LLVM instructions twice, we forgot to make single variable passed to the
kernel available in the ValueMap that makes it usable for instructions that
are not replaced with isl ast expressions. This change adds the variable
that is passed to the kernel to the ValueMap to ensure it is available
for such use cases as well.
llvm-svn: 278039
Before this commit we generated the array type in reverse order and we also
added the outermost dimension size to the new array declaration, which is
incorrect as Polly additionally assumed an additional unsized outermost
dimension, such that we had an off-by-one error in the linearization of access
expressions.
llvm-svn: 277802
These annotations ensure that the NVIDIA PTX assembler limits the number of
registers used such that we can be certain the resulting kernel can be executed

Pass the content of scalar array references to the alloca on the kernel side
and do not pass them additional as normal LLVM scalar value.
llvm-svn: 277699
Otherwise, we would try to re-optimize them with Polly-ACC and possibly even
generate kernels that try to offload themselves, which does not work as the
GPURuntime is not available on the accelerator and also does not make any
sense.
llvm-svn: 277589
Before this change we used the array index, which would result in us accessing
the parameter array out-of-bounds. This bug was visible for test cases where not
all arrays in a scop are passed to a given kernel.
