We just set PreserveLCSSA to always true since we don't have an
analogous method `mustPreserveAnalysisID(LCSSA)`.
Also port LoopInfo verifier pass to test LoopUnrollPass.
llvm-svn: 276063
Summary:
The direct motivation for the port is to ensure that the OptRemarkEmitter
tests work with the new PM.
This remains a function pass because we not only create multiple loops
but could also version the original loop.
In the test I need to invoke opt
with -passes='require<aa>,loop-distribute'. LoopDistribute does not
directly depend on AA however LAA does. LAA uses getCachedResult so
I *think* we need manually pull in 'aa'.

Summary:
The main goal is to able to start using the new OptRemarkEmitter
analysis from the LoopVectorizer. Since the vectorizer was recently
converted to the new PM, it makes sense to convert this analysis as
well.
This pass is currently tested through the LoopDistribution pass, so I am
also porting LoopDistribution to get coverage for this analysis with the
new PM.

StratifiedSets (as implemented) is very fast, but its accuracy is also
limited. If we take a more aggressive andersens-like approach, we can be
way more accurate, but we'll also end up being slower.
So, we've decided to split CFLAA into CFLSteensAA and CFLAndersAA.
Long-term, we want to end up in a place where CFLSteens is queried
first; if it can provide an answer, great (since queries are basically
map lookups). Otherwise, we'll fall back to CFLAnders, BasicAA, etc.
This patch splits everything out so we can try to do something like
that when we get a reasonable CFLAnders implementation.

This uses the "runImpl" approach to share code with the old PM.
Porting to the new PM meant abandoning the anonymous namespace enclosing
most of SLPVectorizer.cpp which is a bit of a bummer (but not a big deal
compared to having to pull the pass class into a header which the new PM
requires since it calls the constructor directly).
llvm-svn: 272766
The need for all these Lookup* functions is just because of calls to
getAnalysis inside methods (i.e. not at the top level) of the

Big thanks to Davide for pointing me at r216244 which gives some insight

constructor. So the fix here is to add one explicitly to the
JumpThreadingPass class.
llvm-svn: 272607
This follows the approach in r263208 (for GVN) pretty closely:
- move the bulk of the body of the function to the new PM class.
- expose a runImpl method on the new-PM class that takes the IRUnitT and
pointers/references to any analyses and use that to implement the
old-PM class.
- use a private namespace in the header for stuff that used to be file
scope

This is a bit gnarly since LVI is maintaining its own cache.
I think this port could be somewhat cleaner, but I'd rather not spend
too much time on it while we still have the old pass hanging around and
limiting how much we can clean things up.
Once the old pass is gone it will be easier (less time spent) to clean
it up anyway.
This is the last dependency needed for porting JumpThreading which I'll
do in a follow-up commit (there's no printer pass for LVI or anything to
test it, so porting a pass that depends on it seems best).
I've been mostly following:
r269370 / D18834 which ported Dependence Analysis

llvm-svn: 272593
Below are my super rough notes when porting. They can probably serve as
a basic guide for porting other passes to the new PM. As I port more
passes I'll expand and generalize this and make a proper
docs/HowToPortToNewPassManager.rst document. There is also missing
documentation for general concepts and API's in the new PM which will
require some documentation.
Once there is proper documentation in place we can put up a list of
passes that have to be ported and game-ify/crowdsource the rest of the
porting (at least of the middle end; the backend is still unclear).
I will however be taking personal responsibility for ensuring that the
LLD/ELF LTO pipeline is ported in a timely fashion. The remaining passes
to be ported are (do something like
`git grep "<the string in the bullet point below>"` to find the pass):
General Scalar:
[ ] Simplify the CFG
[ ] Jump Threading
[ ] MemCpy Optimization
[ ] Promote Memory to Register
[ ] MergedLoadStoreMotion
[ ] Lazy Value Information Analysis
General IPO:
[ ] Dead Argument Elimination
[ ] Deduce function attributes in RPO
Loop stuff / vectorization stuff:
[ ] Alignment from assumptions
[ ] Canonicalize natural loops
[ ] Delete dead loops
[ ] Loop Access Analysis
[ ] Loop Invariant Code Motion
[ ] Loop Vectorization
[ ] SLP Vectorizer
[ ] Unroll loops
Devirtualization / CFI:
[ ] Cross-DSO CFI
[ ] Whole program devirtualization
[ ] Lower bitset metadata
CGSCC passes:
[ ] Function Integration/Inlining
[ ] Remove unused exception handling info
[ ] Promote 'by reference' arguments to scalars
Please let me know if you are interested in working on any of the passes
in the above list (e.g. reply to the post-commit thread for this patch).
I'll probably be tackling "General Scalar" and "General IPO" first FWIW.
Steps as I port "Deduce function attributes in RPO"
---------------------------------------------------
(note: if you are doing any work based on these notes, please leave a
note in the post-commit review thread for this commit with any
improvements / suggestions / incompleteness you ran into!)
Note: "Deduce function attributes in RPO" is a module pass.
1. Do preparatory refactoring.
Do preparatory factoring. In this case all I had to do was to pull out a static helper (r272503).
(TODO: give more advice here e.g. if pass holds state or something)
2. Rename the old pass class.
llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.cpp
Rename class ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrs -> ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsLegacyPass
in preparation for adding a class ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrs as the pass in the new PM.
(edit: actually wait what? The new class name will be
ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass, so it doesn't conflict. So this step is
sort of useless churn).
llvm/include/llvm/InitializePasses.h
llvm/lib/LTO/LTOCodeGenerator.cpp
llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/IPO.cpp
llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.cpp
Rename initializeReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass -> initializeReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsLegacyPassPass
(note that the "PassPass" thing falls out of `s/ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrs/ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsLegacyPass/`)
Note that the INITIALIZE_PASS macro is what creates this identifier name, so renaming the class requires this renaming too.
Note that createReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass does not need to be
renamed since its name is not generated from the class name.
3. Add the new PM pass class.
In the new PM all passes need to have their
declaration in a header somewhere, so you will often need to add a header.
In this case
llvm/include/llvm/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.h is already there because
PostOrderFunctionAttrsPass was already ported.
The file-level comment from the .cpp file can be used as the file-level
comment for the new header. You may want to tweak the wording slightly
from "this file implements" to "this file provides" or similar.
Add declaration for the new PM pass in this header:
class ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass
: public PassInfoMixin<ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass> {
public:
PreservedAnalyses run(Module &M, AnalysisManager<Module> &AM);
};
Its name should end with `Pass` for consistency (note that this doesn't
collide with the names of most old PM passes). E.g. call it
`<name of the old PM pass>Pass`.
Also, move the doxygen comment from the old PM pass to the declaration of
this class in the header.
Also, include the declaration for the new PM class
`llvm/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.h` at the top of the file (in this case,
it was already done when the other pass in this file was ported).
Now define the `run` method for the new class.
The main things here are:
a) Use AM.getResult<...>(M) to get results instead of `getAnalysis<...>()`
b) If the old PM pass would have returned "false" (i.e. `Changed ==
false`), then you should return PreservedAnalyses::all();
c) In the old PM getAnalysisUsage method, observe the calls
`AU.addPreserved<...>();`.
In the case `Changed == true`, for each preserved analysis you should do
call `PA.preserve<...>()` on a PreservedAnalyses object and return it.
E.g.:
PreservedAnalyses PA;
PA.preserve<CallGraphAnalysis>();
return PA;
Note that calls to skipModule/skipFunction are not supported in the new PM
currently, so optnone and optimization bisect support do not work. You can
just drop those calls for now.
4. Add the pass to the new PM pass registry to make it available in opt.
In llvm/lib/Passes/PassBuilder.cpp add a #include for your header.
`#include "llvm/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.h"`
In this case there is already an include (from when
PostOrderFunctionAttrsPass was ported).
Add your pass to llvm/lib/Passes/PassRegistry.def
In this case, I added
`MODULE_PASS("rpo-functionattrs", ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass())`
The string is from the `INITIALIZE_PASS*` macros used in the old pass
manager.
Then choose a test that uses the pass and use the new PM `-passes=...` to
run it.
E.g. in this case there is a test that does:
; RUN: opt < %s -basicaa -functionattrs -rpo-functionattrs -S | FileCheck %s
I have added the line:
; RUN: opt < %s -aa-pipeline=basic-aa -passes='require<targetlibinfo>,cgscc(function-attrs),rpo-functionattrs' -S | FileCheck %s
The `-aa-pipeline=basic-aa` and
`require<targetlibinfo>,cgscc(function-attrs)` are what is needed to run
functionattrs in the new PM (note that in the new PM "functionattrs"
becomes "function-attrs" for some reason). This is just pulled from
`readattrs.ll` which contains the change from when functionattrs was ported
to the new PM.
Adding rpo-functionattrs causes the pass that was just ported to run.

Summary:
There are some rough corners, since the new pass manager doesn't have
(as far as I can tell) LoopSimplify and LCSSA, so I've updated the
tests to run them separately in the old pass manager in the lit tests.
We also don't have an equivalent for AU.setPreservesCFG() in the new
pass manager, so I've left a FIXME.

Summary:
Implement guard widening in LLVM. Description from GuardWidening.cpp:
The semantics of the `@llvm.experimental.guard` intrinsic lets LLVM
transform it so that it fails more often that it did before the
transform. This optimization is called "widening" and can be used hoist
and common runtime checks in situations like these:
```
%cmp0 = 7 u< Length
call @llvm.experimental.guard(i1 %cmp0) [ "deopt"(...) ]
call @unknown_side_effects()
%cmp1 = 9 u< Length
call @llvm.experimental.guard(i1 %cmp1) [ "deopt"(...) ]
...
```
to
```
%cmp0 = 9 u< Length
call @llvm.experimental.guard(i1 %cmp0) [ "deopt"(...) ]
call @unknown_side_effects()
...
```
If `%cmp0` is false, `@llvm.experimental.guard` will "deoptimize" back
to a generic implementation of the same function, which will have the
correct semantics from that point onward. It is always _legal_ to
deoptimize (so replacing `%cmp0` with false is "correct"), though it may
not always be profitable to do so.
NB! This pass is a work in progress. It hasn't been tuned to be
"production ready" yet. It is known to have quadriatic running time and
will not scale to large numbers of guards

tests to run GVN in both modes.
This is mostly the boring refactoring just like SROA and other complex
transformation passes. There is some trickiness in that GVN's
ValueNumber class requires hand holding to get to compile cleanly. I'm
open to suggestions about a better pattern there, but I tried several
before settling on this. I was trying to balance my desire to sink as
much implementation detail into the source file as possible without
introducing overly many layers of abstraction.
Much like with SROA, the design of this system is made somewhat more
cumbersome by the need to support both pass managers without duplicating
the significant state and logic of the pass. The same compromise is
struck here.
I've also left a FIXME in a doxygen comment as the GVN pass seems to
have pretty woeful documentation within it. I'd like to submit this with
the FIXME and let those more deeply familiar backfill the information
here now that we have a nice place in an interface to put that kind of

actually finish wiring up the old call graph.
There were bugs in the old call graph that hadn't been caught because it
wasn't being tested. It wasn't being tested because it wasn't in the
pipeline system and we didn't have a printing pass to run in tests. This
fixes all of that.
As for why I'm still keeping the old call graph alive its so that I can
port GlobalsAA to the new pass manager with out forking it to work with
the lazy call graph. That's clearly the right eventual design, but it
seems pragmatic to defer that until its necessary. The old call graph
works just fine for GlobalsAA.
llvm-svn: 263104
This is a fairly straightforward port to the new pass manager with one
exception. It removes a very questionable use of releaseMemory() in
the old pass to invalidate its caches between runs on a function.
I don't think this is really guaranteed to be safe. I've just used the
more direct port to the new PM to address this by nuking the results
object each time the pass runs. While this could cause some minor malloc
traffic increase, I don't expect the compile time performance hit to be
noticable, and it makes the correctness and other aspects of the pass
much easier to reason about. In some cases, it may make things faster by
making the sets and maps smaller with better locality. Indeed, the
measurements collected by Bruno (thanks!!!) show mostly compile time
improvements.
There is sadly very limited testing at this point as there are only two
tests of memdep, and both rely on GVN. I'll be porting GVN next and that
will exercise this heavily though.

convert one test to use this.
This is a particularly significant milestone because it required
a working per-function AA framework which can be queried over each
function from within a CGSCC transform pass (and additionally a module
analysis to be accessible). This is essentially *the* point of the
entire pass manager rewrite. A CGSCC transform is able to query for
multiple different function's analysis results. It works. The whole
thing appears to actually work and accomplish the original goal. While
we were able to hack function attrs and basic-aa to "work" in the old
pass manager, this port doesn't use any of that, it directly leverages
the new fundamental functionality.
For this to work, the CGSCC framework also has to support SCC-based
behavior analysis, etc. The only part of the CGSCC pass infrastructure
not sorted out at this point are the updates in the face of inlining and
running function passes that mutate the call graph.
The changes are pretty boring and boiler-plate. Most of the work was
factored into more focused preperatory patches. But this is what wires
it all together.

With this its possible to configure the particular alias analysis

basic-aa as part of it.
My big question for reviewers are around the APIs that are used to
expose this functionality. Are folks happy with pass-by-lambda to do
pass registration? Are folks happy with pre-registering analyses as
a way to inject customized instances of an analysis while still using
the registry for the general case?
Other thoughts of course welcome. The next round of patches will be to

a standalone pass.
There is no call graph or even interesting analysis for this part of
function attributes -- it is literally inferring attributes based on the
target library identification. As such, we can do it using a much
simpler module pass that just walks the declarations. This can also
happen much earlier in the pass pipeline which has benefits for any
number of other passes.
In the process, I've cleaned up one particular aspect of the logic which
was necessary in order to separate the two passes cleanly. It now counts
inferred attributes independently rather than just counting all the
inferred attributes as one, and the counts are more clearly explained.
The two test cases we had for this code path are both ... woefully
inadequate and copies of each other. I've kept the superset test and
updated it. We need more testing here, but I had to pick somewhere to
stop fixing everything broken I saw here.

In some ways this is a very boring port to the new pass manager as there
are no interesting analyses or dependencies or other oddities.
However, this does introduce the first good example of a transformation
pass with non-trivial state porting to the new pass manager. I've tried
to carve out patterns here to replicate elsewhere, and would appreciate
comments on whether folks like these patterns:
- A common need in the new pass manager is to effectively lift the pass
class and some of its state into a public header file. Prior to this,
LLVM used anonymous namespaces to provide "module private" types and
utilities, but that doesn't scale to cases where a public header file
is needed and the new pass manager will exacerbate that. The pattern
I've adopted here is to use the namespace-cased-name of the core pass
(what would be a module if we had them) as a module-private namespace.
Then utility and other code can be declared and defined in this
namespace. At some point in the future, we could even have
(conditionally compiled) code that used modules features when
available to do the same basic thing.
- I've split the actual pass run method in two in order to expose
a private method usable by the old pass manager to wrap the new class
with a minimum of duplicated code. I actually looked at a bunch of
ways to automate or generate these, but they are all quite terrible
IMO. The fundamental need is to extract the set of analyses which need
to cross this interface boundary, and that will end up being too
unpredictable to effectively encapsulate IMO. This is also
a relatively small amount of boiler plate that will live a relatively
short time, so I'm not too worried about the fact that it is boiler
plate.
The rest of the patch is totally boring but results in a massive diff
(sorry). It just moves code around and removes or adds qualifiers to
reflect the new name and nesting structure.

This change makes ScalarEvolution a stand-alone object and just produces
one from a pass as needed. Making this work well requires making the
object movable, using references instead of overwritten pointers in
a number of places, and other refactorings.
I've also wired it up to the new pass manager and added a RUN line to
a test to exercise it under the new pass manager. This includes basic
printing support much like with other analyses.
But there is a big and somewhat scary change here. Prior to this patch
ScalarEvolution was never *actually* invalidated!!! Re-running the pass
just re-wired up the various other analyses and didn't remove any of the
existing entries in the SCEV caches or clear out anything at all. This
might seem OK as everything in SCEV that can uses ValueHandles to track
updates to the values that serve as SCEV keys. However, this still means
that as we ran SCEV over each function in the module, we kept
accumulating more and more SCEVs into the cache. At the end, we would
have a SCEV cache with every value that we ever needed a SCEV for in the
entire module!!! Yowzers. The releaseMemory routine would dump all of
this, but that isn't realy called during normal runs of the pipeline as
far as I can see.
To make matters worse, there *is* actually a key that we don't update
with value handles -- there is a map keyed off of Loop*s. Because
LoopInfo *does* release its memory from run to run, it is entirely
possible to run SCEV over one function, then over another function, and
then lookup a Loop* from the second function but find an entry inserted
for the first function! Ouch.
To make matters still worse, there are plenty of updates that *don't*
trip a value handle. It seems incredibly unlikely that today GVN or
another pass that invalidates SCEV can update values in *just* such
a way that a subsequent run of SCEV will incorrectly find lookups in
a cache, but it is theoretically possible and would be a nightmare to
debug.
With this refactoring, I've fixed all this by actually destroying and
recreating the ScalarEvolution object from run to run. Technically, this
could increase the amount of malloc traffic we see, but then again it is
also technically correct. ;] I don't actually think we're suffering from
tons of malloc traffic from SCEV because if we were, the fact that we
never clear the memory would seem more likely to have come up as an
actual problem before now. So, I've made the simple fix here. If in fact
there are serious issues with too much allocation and deallocation,
I can work on a clever fix that preserves the allocations (while
clearing the data) between each run, but I'd prefer to do that kind of
optimization with a test case / benchmark that shows why we need such
cleverness (and that can test that we actually make it faster). It's
possible that this will make some things faster by making the SCEV
caches have higher locality (due to being significantly smaller) so
until there is a clear benchmark, I think the simple change is best.

This will provide the analogous replacements for the PassManagerBuilder
and other code long term. This code is extracted from the opt tool
currently, and I plan to extend it as I build up support for using the
new pass manager in Clang and other places.
Mailing this out for review in part to let folks comment on the terrible names
here. A brief word about why I chose the names I did.
The library is called "Passes" to try and make it clear that it is a high-level
utility and where *all* of the passes come together and are registered in
a common library. I didn't want it to be *limited* to a registry though, the
registry is just one component.
The class is a "PassBuilder" but this name I'm less happy with. It doesn't
build passes in any traditional sense and isn't a Builder-style API at all. The
class is a PassRegisterer or PassAdder, but neither of those really make a lot
of sense. This class is responsible for constructing passes for registry in an
analysis manager or for population of a pass pipeline. If anyone has a better
name, I would love to hear it. The other candidate I looked at was
PassRegistrar, but that doesn't really fit either. There is no register of all
the passes in use, and so I think continuing the "registry" analog outside of
the registry of pass *names* and *types* is a mistake. The objects themselves
are just objects with the new pass manager.
