Serguei Katkov ecebc3db72 [BPI] Refactor post domination calculation and simple fix for ColdCall
Collection of PostDominatedByUnreachable and PostDominatedByColdCall have been
split out of heuristics itself. Update of the data happens now for each basic
block (before update for PostDominatedByColdCall might be skipped if
unreachable or matadata heuristic handled this basic block).

This separation allows re-ordering of heuristics without loosing
the post-domination information.

Jun Bum Lim 3822939ba7 Enhance calcColdCallHeuristics for InvokeInst
Summary: When identifying cold blocks, consider only the edge to the normal destination if the terminator is InvokeInst and let calcInvokeHeuristics() decide edge weights for the InvokeInst.

Adam Nemet aa3506c5f0 [BPI] Add new LazyBPI analysis
Summary:
The motivation is the same as in D22141: In order to add the hotness
attribute to optimization remarks we need BFI to be available in all
passes that emit optimization remarks.  BFI depends on BPI so unless we
make this lazy as well we would still compute BPI unconditionally.

The solution is to use the new LazyBPI pass in LazyBFI and only compute
BPI when computation of BFI is requested by the client.

I extended the laziness test using a LoopDistribute test to also cover
BPI.

Cong Hou 15ea016346 Use fixed-point representation for BranchProbability.
BranchProbability now is represented by its numerator and denominator in uint32_t type. This patch changes this representation into a fixed point that is represented by the numerator in uint32_t type and a constant denominator 1<<31. This is quite similar to the representation of BlockMass in BlockFrequencyInfoImpl.h. There are several pros and cons of this change:

Pros:

1. It uses only a half space of the current one.
2. Some operations are much faster like plus, subtraction, comparison, and scaling by an integer.

Cons:

1. Constructing a probability using arbitrary numerator and denominator needs additional calculations.
2. It is a little less precise than before as we use a fixed denominator. For example, 1 - 1/3 may not be exactly identical to 1 / 3 (this will lead to many BranchProbability unit test failures). This should not matter when we only use it for branch probability. If we use it like a rational value for some precise calculations we may need another construct like ValueRatio.

One important reason for this change is that we propose to store branch probabilities instead of edge weights in MachineBasicBlock. We also want clients to use probability instead of weight when adding successors to a MBB. The current BranchProbability has more space which may be a concern.

Daniel Jasper a73f3d51ac Re-apply r234898 and fix tests.
This commit makes LLVM not estimate branch probabilities when doing a
single bit bitmask tests.

The code that originally made me discover this is:

  if ((a & 0x1) == 0x1) {
    ..
  }

In this case we don't actually have any branch probability information
and should not assume to have any. LLVM transforms this into:

  %and = and i32 %a, 1
  %tobool = icmp eq i32 %and, 0

So, in this case, the result of a bitwise and is compared against 0,
but nevertheless, we should not assume to have probability
information.

CodeGen/ARM/2013-10-11-select-stalls.ll started failing because the
changed probabilities changed the results of
ARMBaseInstrInfo::isProfitableToIfCvt() and led to an Ifcvt of the
diamond in the test. AFAICT, the test was never meant to test this and
thus changing the test input slightly to not change the probabilities
seems like the best way to preserve the meaning of the test.

David Blaikie a79ac14fa6 [opaque pointer type] Add textual IR support for explicit type parameter to load instruction
Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.

A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)

import fileinput
import sys
import re

pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")

for line in sys.stdin:
  sys.stdout.write(re.sub(pat, r"\1, \2\3*\4", line))

David Blaikie 79e6c74981 [opaque pointer type] Add textual IR support for explicit type parameter to getelementptr instruction
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.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith be7ea19b58 IR: Make metadata typeless in assembly
Now that `Metadata` is typeless, reflect that in the assembly.  These
are the matching assembly changes for the metadata/value split in
r223802.

  - Only use the `metadata` type when referencing metadata from a call
    intrinsic -- i.e., only when it's used as a `Value`.

  - Stop pretending that `ValueAsMetadata` is wrapped in an `MDNode`
    when referencing it from call intrinsics.

So, assembly like this:

    define @foo(i32 %v) {
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 %v}, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 7}, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !1, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{metadata !3}, metadata !0)
      ret void, !bar !2
    }
    !0 = metadata !{metadata !2}
    !1 = metadata !{i32* @global}
    !2 = metadata !{metadata !3}
    !3 = metadata !{}

turns into this:

    define @foo(i32 %v) {
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 %v, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 7, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32* @global, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{!3}, metadata !0)
      ret void, !bar !2
    }
    !0 = !{!2}
    !1 = !{i32* @global}
    !2 = !{!3}
    !3 = !{}

I wrote an upgrade script that handled almost all of the tests in llvm
and many of the tests in cfe (even handling many `CHECK` lines).  I've
attached it (or will attach it in a moment if you're speedy) to PR21532
to help everyone update their out-of-tree testcases.

This is part of PR21532.

Hal Finkel 4d94930bcb Consider (x == -1) unlikely in BranchProbabilityInfo
This adds another heuristic to BPI, similar to the existing heuristic that
considers (x == 0) unlikely to be true. As suggested in the PACT'98 paper by
Deitrich, Cheng, and Hwu, -1 is often used to indicate an invalid index, and
equality comparisons with -1 are also unlikely to succeed. Local
experimentation supports this hypothesis: This yields a 1-2% speedup in the
test-suite sqlite benchmark on the PPC A2 core, with no significant
regressions.

Diego Novillo c63995394d Add a new function attribute 'cold' to functions.
Other than recognizing the attribute, the patch does little else.
It changes the branch probability analyzer so that edges into
blocks postdominated by a cold function are given low weight.

Added analysis and code generation tests.  Added documentation for the
new attribute.

Manman Ren cf10446ffa BranchProb: modify the definition of an edge in BranchProbabilityInfo to handle
the case of multiple edges from one block to another.

A simple example is a switch statement with multiple values to the same
destination. The definition of an edge is modified from a pair of blocks to
a pair of PredBlock and an index into the successors.

Also set the weight correctly when building SelectionDAG from LLVM IR,
especially when converting a Switch.
IntegersSubsetMapping is updated to calculate the weight for each cluster.

Chandler Carruth 1c8ace0e89 Teach the BranchProbabilityInfo pass to print its results, and use that
to bring it under direct test instead of merely indirectly testing it in
the BlockFrequencyInfo pass.

The next step is to start adding tests for the various heuristics
employed, and to start fixing those heuristics once they're under test.
