There are cases of AVX-512 instructions that have two possible encodings. This is the case with instructions that use vector registers with low indexes of 0 - 15 and do not use the zmm registers or the mask k registers.
The EVEX encoding prefix requires 4 bytes whereas the VEX prefix can take only up to 3 bytes. Consequently, using the VEX encoding for these instructions results in a code size reduction of ~2 bytes even though it is compiled with the AVX-512 features enabled.

Includes adding more general support for the pattern: VZEXT_MOVL(VZEXT_LOAD(ptr)) -> VZEXT_LOAD(ptr)
This has unearthed a couple of latent poor codegen issues (MINSS/MAXSS scalar load folding and MOVDDUP/BROADCAST load folding patterns), which will be fixed shortly.
Its also reduced a couple of tests so that they no longer reach the instruction threshold necessary to be combined to PSHUFB (see PR26183).

xor/and/or (bitcast(A), bitcast(B)) -> bitcast(op (A,B)) was only being combined at the AfterLegalizeTypes stage, this patch permits the combine to occur anytime before then as well.
The main aim with this to improve the ability to recognise bitmasks that can be converted to shuffles.
I had to modify a number of AVX512 mask tests as the basic bitcast to/from scalar pattern was being stripped out, preventing testing of the mmask bitops. By replacing the bitcasts with loads we can get almost the same result.

Better handling of the annoying pshuflw/pshufhw ops which only shuffle lower/upper halves of a vector.
Added vXi16 unary shuffle support for cases where i16 elements (from the same half of the source) are being splatted to the whole of one of the halves. This avoids the general lowering case which must shuffle the 32-bit elements first - meaning that we used to end up with unnecessary duplicate pshuflw/pshufhw shuffles.
Note this has the side effect of a lot of SSSE3 test cases no longer needing to use PSHUFB, as it falls below the 3 op combine threshold for when PSHUFB is typically worth it. I've raised PR26183 to discuss if the threshold should be changed and whether we need to make it more specific to the target CPU.

When matching non-LSB-extracting truncating broadcasts, we now insert
the necessary SRL. If the scalar resulted from a load, the SRL will be
folded into it, creating a narrower, offset, load.
However, i16 loads aren't Desirable, so we get i16->i32 zextloads.
We already catch i16 aextloads; catch these as well.
llvm-svn: 252363
Now that we recognize this, we can support it instead of bailing out.
That is, we can fold:
(v8i16 (shufflevector
(v8i16 (bitcast (v4i32 (build_vector X, Y, ...)))),
<1,1,...,1>))
into:
(v8i16 (vbroadcast (i16 (trunc (srl Y, 16)))))
llvm-svn: 252362
We used to incorrectly assume that the offset we're extracting from
was a multiple of the element size. So, we'd fold:
(v8i16 (shufflevector
(v8i16 (bitcast (v4i32 (build_vector X, Y, ...)))),
<1,1,...,1>))
into:
(v8i16 (vbroadcast (i16 (trunc Y))))
whereas we should have extracted the higher bits from X.
Instead, bail out if the assumption doesn't hold.

Fixes PR23464: one way to use the broadcast intrinsics is:
_mm256_broadcastw_epi16(_mm_cvtsi32_si128(*(int*)src));
We don't currently fold this, but now that we use native IR for
the intrinsics (r245605), we can look through one bitcast to find
the broadcast scalar.

This patch attempts to fold the shuffling of 'scalar source' inputs - BUILD_VECTOR and SCALAR_TO_VECTOR nodes - if the shuffle node is the only user. This folds away a lot of unnecessary shuffle nodes, and allows quite a bit of constant folding that was being missed.

systematic lowering of v8i16.
This required a slight strategy shift to prefer unpack lowerings in more
places. While this isn't a cut-and-dry win in every case, it is in the
overwhelming majority. There are only a few places where the old
lowering would probably be a touch faster, and then only by a small
margin.
In some cases, this is yet another significant improvement.

addition to lowering to trees rooted in an unpack.
This saves shuffles and or registers in many various ways, lets us

terribly complex partial blend logic.
This code path was one of the more complex and bug prone when it first
went in and it hasn't faired much better. Ultimately, with the simpler
basis for unpack lowering and support bit-math blending, this is
completely obsolete. In the worst case without this we generate
different but equivalent instructions. However, in many cases we
generate much better code. This is especially true when blends or pshufb
is available.
This does expose one (minor) weakness of the unpack lowering that I'll
try to address.
In case you were wondering, this is actually a big part of what I've
been trying to pull off in the recent string of commits.
llvm-svn: 229853
needed, and significantly improve the SSSE3 path.
This makes the new strategy much more clear. If we can blend, we just go
with that. If we can't blend, we try to permute into an unpack so
that we handle cases where the unpack doing the blend also simplifies
the shuffle. If that fails and we've got SSSE3, we now call into
factored-out pshufb lowering code so that we leverage the fact that
pshufb can set up a blend for us while shuffling. This generates great
code, especially because we *know* we don't have a fast blend at this
point. Finally, we fall back on decomposing into permutes and blends
because we do at least have a bit-math-based blend if we need to use
that.
This pretty significantly improves some of the v8i16 code paths. We
never need to form pshufb for the single-input shuffles because we have
effective target-specific combines to form it there, but we were missing
its effectiveness in the blends.
llvm-svn: 229851
lowering paths. I'm going to be leveraging this to simplify a lot of the
overly complex lowering of v8 and v16 shuffles in pre-SSSE3 modes.
Sadly, this isn't profitable on v4i32 and v2i64. There, the float and
double blending instructions for pre-SSE4.1 are actually pretty good,
and we can't beat them with bit math. And once SSE4.1 comes around we
have direct blending support and this ceases to be relevant.
Also, some of the test cases look odd because the domain fixer
canonicalizes these to floating point domain. That's OK, it'll use the
integer domain when it matters and some day I may be able to update
enough of LLVM to canonicalize the other way.
This restores almost all of the regressions from teaching x86's vselect
lowering to always use vector shuffle lowering for blends. The remaining
problems are because the v16 lowering path is still doing crazy things.
I'll be re-arranging that strategy in more detail in subsequent commits
to finish recovering the performance here.

track state.
I didn't like this in the code review because the pattern tends to be
error prone, but I didn't see a clear way to rewrite it. Turns out that
there were bugs here, I found them when fuzz testing our shuffle
lowering for correctness on x86.
The core of the problem is that we need to consistently test all our
preconditions for the same directionality of shift and the same input
vector. Instead, formulate this as two predicates (one doesn't depend on
the input in any way), pass things like the directionality and input
vector as inputs, and loop over the alternatives.
This fixes a pattern of very rare miscompiles coming out of this code.
Turned up roughly 4 out of every 1 million v8 shuffles in my fuzz
testing. The new code is over half a million test runs with no failures
yet. I've also fuzzed every other function in the lowering code with
over 3.5 million test cases and not discovered any other miscompiles.
llvm-svn: 229642
This allows it to match still more places where previously we would have
to fall back on floating point shuffles or other more complex lowering
strategies.
I'm hoping to replace some of the hand-rolled unpack matching with this
routine is it gets more and more clever.
llvm-svn: 229463
advantage of the existence of a reasonable blend instruction.
The 256-bit vector shuffle lowering has leveraged the general technique
of decomposed shuffles and blends for quite some time, but this never
made it back into the 128-bit code, and there are a large number of
patterns where this is substantially better. For example, this removes
almost all domain crossing in vector shuffles that involve some blend
and some permutation with SSE4.1 and later. See the massive reduction
in 'shufps' for integer test cases in this commit.
This isn't perfect yet for a few reasons:
1) The v8i16 shuffle lowering continues to plague me. We don't always
form an unpack-based blend when that would be better. But the wins
pretty drastically outstrip the losses here.
2) The v16i8 shuffle lowering is just a disaster here. I never went and
implemented blend support here for some terrible reason. I'll do
that next probably. I've not updated it for now.
More variations on this technique are coming as well -- we don't
shuffle-into-unpack or shuffle-into-palignr, both of which would also be
profitable.
Note that some test cases grow significantly in the number of
instructions, but I expect to actually be faster. We use
pshufd+pshufd+blendw instead of a single shufps, but the pshufd's are
very likely to pipeline well (two ports on most modern intel chips) and
the blend is a *very* fast instruction. The domain switch penalty will
essentially always be more than a blend instruction, which is the only
increase in tree height.
llvm-svn: 229350
directly into blends of the splats.
These patterns show up even very late in the vector shuffle lowering
where we don't have any chance for DAG combining to kick in, and
blending is a tremendously simpler operation to model. By coercing the
shuffle into a blend we can much more easily match and lower shuffles of
splats.
Immediately with this change there are significantly more blends being
matched in the x86 vector shuffle lowering.

I'm planning to make this the default shortly, but I'd like to fix
a collection of the bugs it exposes first, and this will let me easily
test them. It also showcases both the improvements and a few of the
regressions triggered by the change. The biggest improvements by far are
the significantly reduced shuffling and domain crossing in the combining
test case. The biggest regressions are missing some clever blending
patterns.

updating script so that they are more thorough and consistent.
Specific fixes here include:
- Actually test VEX-encoded AVX mnemonics.
- Actually use an SSE 4.1 run to test SSE 4.1 features!
- Correctly check instructions sequences from the start of the function.
- Elide the shuffle operands and comment designator in a consistent way.
- Test all of the architectures instead of just the ones I was motivated
to manually author.
I've gone back through and fixed up any egregious issues I spotted. Let
me know if I missed something you really dislike.
One downside to this is that we're now not as diligently using FileCheck
variables for registers. I would be much more concerned with this if we
had larger register usage, but there just aren't that interesting of
register choices here and most of the registers are constrained by the
ABI. Ultimately, I don't think this is likely to be the maintenance
burden for these tests and updating them again should be staright
forward.

lowering to support both anyext and zext and to custom lower for many

Using this allows us to get *exactly* the right code for zext and anyext

to the new vector shuffle lowering code.
This allows us to emit PMOVZX variants consistently for patterns where
it is a viable lowering. This instruction is both fast and allows us to
fold loads into it. This only hooks the new lowering up for i16 and i8
element widths, mostly so I could manage the change to the tests. I'll
add the i32 one next, although it is significantly less interesting.
One thing to note is that we already had some tests for these patterns
but those tests had far less horrible instructions. The problem is that
those tests weren't checking the strict start and end of the instruction
sequence. =[ As a consequence something changed in the lowering making
us generate *TERRIBLE* code for these patterns in SSE2 through SSSE3.
I've consolidated all of the tests and spelled out the madness that we
currently emit for these shuffles. I'm going to try to figure out what
has gone wrong here.

There is no purpose in using it for single-input shuffles as
pshufd is just as fast and doesn't tie the two operands. This removes
a substantial amount of wrong-domain blend operations in SSSE3 mode. It
also completes the usage of PALIGNR for integer shuffles and addresses
one of the test cases Quentin hit with the new vector shuffle lowering.
There is still the question of whether and when to use this for floating
point shuffles. It is faster than shufps or shufpd but in the integer
domain. I don't yet really have a good heuristic here for when to use
this instruction for floating point vectors.
llvm-svn: 218038
PALIGNR. This just adds it to the v8i16 and v16i8 lowering steps where
it is completely unmatched. It also introduces the logic for detecting
rotation shuffle masks even in the presence of single input or blend
masks and arbitrarily undef lanes.
I've added fairly comprehensive tests for the matching logic in v8i16
because the tests at that size are much easier to write and manage.
I've not checked the SSE2 code generated for these tests because the
code is *horrible*. It is absolute madness. Testing it will just make
the test brittle without giving any interesting improvements in the
correctness confidence.

AVX is available, and generally tidy up things surrounding UNPCK
formation.
Originally, I was thinking that the only advantage of PSHUFD over UNPCK
instruction variants was its free copy, and otherwise we should use the
shorter encoding UNPCK instructions. This isn't right though, there is
a larger advantage of being able to fold a load into the operand of
a PSHUFD. For UNPCK, the operand *must* be in a register so it can be
the second input.
This removes the UNPCK formation in the target-specific DAG combine for
v4i32 shuffles. It also lifts the v8 and v16 cases out of the
AVX-specific check as they are potentially replacing multiple
instructions with a single instruction and so should always be valuable.
The floating point checks are simplified accordingly.
This also adjusts the formation of PSHUFD instructions to attempt to
match the shuffle mask to one which would fit an UNPCK instruction
variant. This was originally motivated to allow it to match the UNPCK
instructions in the combiner, but clearly won't now.
Eventually, we should add a MachineCombiner pass that can form UNPCK
instructions post-RA when the operand is known to be in a register and
thus there is no loss.
llvm-svn: 217755
'punpckhwd' instructions when suitable rather than falling back to the
generic algorithm.
While we could canonicalize to these patterns late in the process, that
wouldn't help when the freedom to use them is only visible during
initial lowering when undef lanes are well understood. This, it turns
out, is very important for matching the shuffle patterns that are used
to lower sign extension. Fixes a small but relevant regression in
gcc-loops with the new lowering.
When I changed this I noticed that several 'pshufd' lowerings became
unpck variants. This is bad because it removes the ability to freely
copy in the same instruction. I've adjusted the widening test to handle
undef lanes correctly and now those will correctly continue to use
'pshufd' to lower. However, this caused a bunch of churn in the test
cases. No functional change, just churn.
Both of these changes are part of addressing a general weakness in the
new lowering -- it doesn't sufficiently leverage undef lanes. I've at
least a couple of patches that will help there at least in an academic
sense.

one pesky test case correctly.
This test case caused the old code to infloop occilating between solving
the low-half and the high-half. The 'side balancing' part of
single-input v8 shuffle lowering didn't handle the one pattern which can
cause it to occilate. Fortunately the fuzz testing found this case.
Unfortuately it was *terrible* to handle. I'm really sorry for the
amount and density of the code here, I'd love suggestions on how to
simplify it. I feel like there *must* be a simpler form here, but after
a lot of days I've not found it. This is the only one I've found that
even works. I've added the one pesky test case along with some nice
comments explaining the core problem that we have to solve here.
So far this has survived approximately 32k test cases. More strenuous
fuzzing commencing.
