Split `Metadata` away from the `Value` class hierarchy, as part of
PR21532. Assembly and bitcode changes are in the wings, but this is the
bulk of the change for the IR C++ API.
I have a follow-up patch prepared for `clang`. If this breaks other
sub-projects, I apologize in advance :(. Help me compile it on Darwin
I'll try to fix it. FWIW, the errors should be easy to fix, so it may
be simpler to just fix it yourself.
This breaks the build for all metadata-related code that's out-of-tree.
Rest assured the transition is mechanical and the compiler should catch
almost all of the problems.
Here's a quick guide for updating your code:
- `Metadata` is the root of a class hierarchy with three main classes:
`MDNode`, `MDString`, and `ValueAsMetadata`. It is distinct from
the `Value` class hierarchy. It is typeless -- i.e., instances do
*not* have a `Type`.
- `MDNode`'s operands are all `Metadata *` (instead of `Value *`).
- `TrackingVH<MDNode>` and `WeakVH` referring to metadata can be
replaced with `TrackingMDNodeRef` and `TrackingMDRef`, respectively.
If you're referring solely to resolved `MDNode`s -- post graph
construction -- just use `MDNode*`.
- `MDNode` (and the rest of `Metadata`) have only limited support for
`replaceAllUsesWith()`.
As long as an `MDNode` is pointing at a forward declaration -- the
result of `MDNode::getTemporary()` -- it maintains a side map of its
uses and can RAUW itself. Once the forward declarations are fully
resolved RAUW support is dropped on the ground. This means that
uniquing collisions on changing operands cause nodes to become
"distinct". (This already happened fairly commonly, whenever an
operand went to null.)
If you're constructing complex (non self-reference) `MDNode` cycles,
you need to call `MDNode::resolveCycles()` on each node (or on a
top-level node that somehow references all of the nodes). Also,
don't do that. Metadata cycles (and the RAUW machinery needed to
construct them) are expensive.
- An `MDNode` can only refer to a `Constant` through a bridge called
`ConstantAsMetadata` (one of the subclasses of `ValueAsMetadata`).
As a side effect, accessing an operand of an `MDNode` that is known
to be, e.g., `ConstantInt`, takes three steps: first, cast from
`Metadata` to `ConstantAsMetadata`; second, extract the `Constant`;
third, cast down to `ConstantInt`.
The eventual goal is to introduce `MDInt`/`MDFloat`/etc. and have
metadata schema owners transition away from using `Constant`s when
the type isn't important (and they don't care about referring to
`GlobalValue`s).
In the meantime, I've added transitional API to the `mdconst`
namespace that matches semantics with the old code, in order to
avoid adding the error-prone three-step equivalent to every call
site. If your old code was:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
you can trivially match its semantics with:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(mdconst::hasa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(mdconst::extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(mdconst::extract_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(mdconst::dyn_extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(mdconst::dyn_extract_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
and when you transition your metadata schema to `MDInt`:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <MDInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <MDInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<MDInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
- A `CallInst` -- specifically, intrinsic instructions -- can refer to
metadata through a bridge called `MetadataAsValue`. This is a
subclass of `Value` where `getType()->isMetadataTy()`.
`MetadataAsValue` is the *only* class that can legally refer to a
`LocalAsMetadata`, which is a bridged form of non-`Constant` values
like `Argument` and `Instruction`. It can also refer to any other
`Metadata` subclass.
(I'll break all your testcases in a follow-up commit, when I propagate
this change to assembly.)

replaceDbgDeclareForAlloca() replaces an alloca by a value storing the
address of what was the alloca. If there is a dbg.declare corresponding
to that alloca, we need to lower it to a dbg.value describing the additional
dereference operation to be performed to get to the underlying variable.
This is done by adding a DW_OP_deref to the complex location part of the
location description. This deref was added to the end of the operation list,
which is wrong. The expression applies to what is described by the
dbg.{declare,value}, and as we are changing this, we need to apply the
DW_OP_deref as the first operation in the list.

Currently LoopUnroll generates a prologue loop before the main loop
body to execute first N%UnrollFactor iterations. Also, this loop is
used if trip-count can overflow - it's determined by a runtime check.
However, we've been mistakenly optimizing this loop to a linear code for
UnrollFactor = 2, not taking into account that it also serves as a safe
version of the loop if its trip-count overflows.

When converting a switch to a lookup table we might have to generate a bitmaks
to encode and check for holes in the original switch statement.
The type of this mask depends on the number of switch statements, which can
result in illegal types for pretty much all architectures.

the size of the bitmask to next power-of-2 value when necessary.

Switch statements may have more than one incoming edge into the same BB if they
all have the same value. When the switch statement is converted these incoming
edges are now coming from multiple BBs. Updating all incoming values to be from
a single BB is incorrect and would generate invalid LLVM IR.
The fix is to only update the first occurrence of an incoming value. Switch
lowering will perform subsequent calls to this helper function for each incoming
edge with a new basic block - updating all edges in the process.

This introduces the symbol rewriter. This is an IR->IR transformation that is

It provides a clean, simple, elegant solution for symbol inter-positioning. This
technique is often used, such as in the various sanitizers and performance
analysis.
The control of this is via a custom YAML syntax map file that indicates source
to destination mapping, so as to avoid having the compiler to know the exact

This restores the commit from SVN r219899 with an additional change to ensure
that the CodeGen is correct for the case that was identified as being incorrect
(originally PR7272).
In the case that during inlining we need to synthesize a value on the stack
(i.e. for passing a value byval), then any function involving that alloca must
be stripped of its tailness as the restriction that it does not access the
parent's stack no longer holds. Unfortunately, a single alloca can cause a
rippling effect through out the inlining as the value may be aliased or may be
mutated through an escaped external call. As such, we simply track if an alloca
has been introduced in the frame during inlining, and strip any tail calls.

This patch removes a chunk of special case logic for folding

that's the existing behavior.

combineMetadata is used when merging two instructions into one. This change teaches it how to merge 'nonnull' - i.e. only preserve it on the new instruction if it's set on both sources.

When functions are inlined, instructions without debug information are
attributed to the call site's DebugLoc. After inlining, inlined static
allocas are moved to the caller's entry block, adjacent to the caller's
original static alloca instructions. By retaining the call site's
DebugLoc, these instructions could cause instructions that were
subsequently inserted at the entry block to pick up the same DebugLoc.

If a square root call has an FP multiplication argument that can be reassociated,
then we can hoist a repeated factor out of the square root call and into a fabs().
In the simplest case, this:
y = sqrt(x * x);
becomes this:
y = fabs(x);
This patch relies on an earlier optimization in instcombine or reassociate to put the
multiplication tree into a canonical form, so we don't have to search over
every permutation of the multiplication tree.
Because there are no IR-level FastMathFlags for intrinsics (PR21290), we have to
use function-level attributes to do this optimization. This needs to be fixed
for both the intrinsics and in the backend.

because the simplifycfg transformation into selects would happen to happen
before the simplifycfg transformation that removes unreachable control flow
(We have 'unreachable control flow' due to the store to null which is undefined
behavior).
The existing transformation that removes unreachable control flow in simplifycfg
is:
/// If BB has an incoming value that will always trigger undefined behavior

This optimization tries to convert switch instructions that are used to select a value with only 2 unique cases + default block
to a select or a couple of selects (depending if the default block is reachable or not).
The typical case this optimization wants to be able to optimize is this one:
Example:
switch (a) {
case 10: %0 = icmp eq i32 %a, 10
return 10; %1 = select i1 %0, i32 10, i32 4
case 20: ----> %2 = icmp eq i32 %a, 20
return 2; %3 = select i1 %2, i32 2, i32 %1
default:
return 4;

Previously, DIVariable was a variable-length field that has an optional

SROA'd into all of its n individual members, the IR will contain n copies
of the DIVariable, all alike, only differing in the complex address

By making the complex address into an extra argument of the

same variable and the complex address expressions can be uniqued across
the CU, too.
Down the road, this will allow us to move other flags, such as
"indirection" out of the DIVariable, too.

Summary:
This patch adds a threshold that controls the number of bonus instructions
allowed for folding branches with common destination. The original code allows
at most one bonus instruction. With this patch, users can customize the
threshold to allow multiple bonus instructions. The default threshold is still
1, so that the code behaves the same as before when users do not specify this
threshold.
The motivation of this change is that tuning this threshold significantly (up
to 25%) improves the performance of some CUDA programs in our internal code
base. In general, branch instructions are very expensive for GPU programs.
Therefore, it is sometimes worth trading more arithmetic computation for a more
straightened control flow. Here's a reduced example:
__global__ void foo(int a, int b, int c, int d, int e, int n,
const int *input, int *output) {
int sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
sum += (((i ^ a) > b) && (((i | c ) ^ d) > e)) ? 0 : input[i];
*output = sum;
}
The select statement in the loop body translates to two branch instructions "if
((i ^ a) > b)" and "if (((i | c) ^ d) > e)" which share a common destination.
With the default threshold, SimplifyCFG is unable to fold them, because
computing the condition of the second branch "(i | c) ^ d > e" requires two
bonus instructions. With the threshold increased, SimplifyCFG can fold the two
branches so that the loop body contains only one branch, making the code
conceptually look like:
sum += (((i ^ a) > b) & (((i | c ) ^ d) > e)) ? 0 : input[i];
Increasing the threshold significantly improves the performance of this
particular example. In the configuration where both conditions are guaranteed
to be true, increasing the threshold from 1 to 2 improves the performance by
18.24%. Even in the configuration where the first condition is false and the
second condition is true, which favors shortcuts, increasing the threshold from
1 to 2 still improves the performance by 4.35%.
We are still looking for a good threshold and maybe a better cost model than
just counting the number of bonus instructions. However, according to the above
numbers, we think it is at least worth adding a threshold to enable more
experiments and tuning. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Runtime unrolling will create a prologue to execute the extra
iterations which is can't divided by the unroll factor. It
generates an if-then-else sequence to jump into a factor -1
times unrolled loop body, like
extraiters = tripcount % loopfactor
if (extraiters == 0) jump Loop:
if (extraiters == loopfactor) jump L1
if (extraiters == loopfactor-1) jump L2
...
L1: LoopBody;
L2: LoopBody;
...
if tripcount < loopfactor jump End
Loop:
...
End:
It means if the unroll factor is 4, the loop body will be 7
times unrolled, 3 are in loop prologue, and 4 are in the loop.
This commit is to use a loop to execute the extra iterations
in prologue, like
extraiters = tripcount % loopfactor
if (extraiters == 0) jump Loop:
else jump Prol
Prol: LoopBody;
extraiters -= 1 // Omitted if unroll factor is 2.
if (extraiters != 0) jump Prol: // Omitted if unroll factor is 2.
if (tripcount < loopfactor) jump End
Loop:
...
End:
Then when unroll factor is 4, the loop body will be copied by
only 5 times, 1 in the prologue loop, 4 in the original loop.
And if the unroll factor is 2, new loop won't be created, just
as the original solution.

This change, which allows @llvm.assume to be used from within computeKnownBits

control-flow dependencies). This means that, when we ask if bits are known in a
value, we might get different answers for different uses.
The significant changes are all in ValueTracking. Two main changes: First, as
with the rest of the code, new parameters need to be passed around. To make
this easier, I grouped them into a structure, and I made internal static
versions of the relevant functions that take this structure as a parameter. The
new code does as you might expect, it looks for @llvm.assume calls that make
use of the value we're trying to learn something about (often indirectly),
attempts to pattern match that expression, and uses the result if successful.
By making use of the AssumptionTracker, the process of finding @llvm.assume
calls is not expensive.
Part of the structure being passed around inside ValueTracking is a set of
already-considered @llvm.assume calls. This is to prevent a query using, for
example, the assume(a == b), to recurse on itself. The context and DT params
are used to find applicable assumptions. An assumption needs to dominate the
context instruction, or come after it deterministically. In this latter case we
only handle the specific case where both the assumption and the context
instruction are in the same block, and we need to exclude assumptions from
being used to simplify their own ephemeral values (those which contribute only
to the assumption) because otherwise the assumption would prove its feeding
comparison trivial and would be removed.
This commit adds the plumbing and the logic for a simple masked-bit propagation
(just enough to write a regression test). Future commits add more patterns
(and, correspondingly, more regression tests).
llvm-svn: 217342
This adds an immutable pass, AssumptionTracker, which keeps a cache of
@llvm.assume call instructions within a module. It uses callback value handles
to keep stale functions and intrinsics out of the map, and it relies on any
code that creates new @llvm.assume calls to notify it of the new instructions.
The benefit is that code needing to find @llvm.assume intrinsics can do so
directly, without scanning the function, thus allowing the cost of @llvm.assume
handling to be negligible when none are present.
The current design is intended to be lightweight. We don't keep track of
anything until we need a list of assumptions in some function. The first time
this happens, we scan the function. After that, we add/remove @llvm.assume
calls from the cache in response to registration calls and ValueHandle
callbacks.
There are no new direct test cases for this pass, but because it calls it
validation function upon module finalization, we'll pick up detectable
inconsistencies from the other tests that touch @llvm.assume calls.
This pass will be used by follow-up commits that make use of @llvm.assume.

This feeds AA through the IFI structure into the inliner so that
AddAliasScopeMetadata can use AA->getModRefBehavior to figure out which
functions only access their arguments (instead of just hard-coding some
knowledge of memory intrinsics). Most of the information is only available from
BasicAA; this is important for preserving alias scoping information for
target-specific intrinsics when doing the noalias parameter attribute to
metadata conversion.
llvm-svn: 216866
I thought that I had fixed this problem in r216818, but I did not do a very
good job. The underlying issue is that when we add alias.scope metadata we are
asserting that this metadata completely describes the aliasing relationships
within the current aliasing scope domain, and so in the context of translating
noalias argument attributes, the pointers must all be based on noalias
arguments (as underlying objects) and have no other kind of underlying object.
In r216818 excluding appropriate accesses from getting alias.scope metadata is
done by looking for underlying objects that are not identified function-local
objects -- but that's wrong because allocas, etc. are also function-local
objects and we need to explicitly check that all underlying objects are the
noalias arguments for which we're adding metadata aliasing scopes.
This fixes the underlying-object check for adding alias.scope metadata, and
does some refactoring of the related capture-checking eligibility logic (and
adds more comments; hopefully making everything a bit clearer).
Fixes self-hosting on x86_64 with -mllvm -enable-noalias-to-md-conversion (the
feature is still disabled by default).
llvm-svn: 216863
The previous implementation of AddAliasScopeMetadata, which adds noalias
metadata to preserve noalias parameter attribute information when inlining had
a flaw: it would add alias.scope metadata to accesses which might have been
derived from pointers other than noalias function parameters. This was
incorrect because even some access known not to alias with all noalias function
parameters could easily alias with an access derived from some other pointer.
Instead, when deriving from some unknown pointer, we cannot add alias.scope
metadata at all. This fixes a miscompile of the test-suite's tramp3d-v4.
Furthermore, we cannot add alias.scope to functions unless we know they
access only argument-derived pointers (currently, we know this only for
memory intrinsics).
Also, we fix a theoretical problem with using the NoCapture attribute to skip
the capture check. This is incorrect (as explained in the comment added), but
would not matter in any code generated by Clang because we get only inferred
nocapture attributes in Clang-generated IR.
This functionality is not yet enabled by default.

Somewhat unnoticed in the original implementation of discriminators, but
it could cause instructions to end up in new, small,
DW_TAG_lexical_blocks due to the use of DILexicalBlock to track
discriminator changes.
Instead, use DILexicalBlockFile which we already use to track file
changes without introducing new scopes, so it works well to track
discriminator changes in the same way.

When a call site with noalias metadata is inlined, that metadata can be
propagated directly to the inlined instructions (only those that might access
memory because it is not useful on the others). Prior to inlining, the noalias
metadata could express that a call would not alias with some other memory
access, which implies that no instruction within that called function would
alias. By propagating the metadata to the inlined instructions, we preserve
that knowledge.
This should complete the enhancements requested in PR20500.
llvm-svn: 215676
When preserving noalias function parameter attributes by adding noalias
metadata in the inliner, we should do this for general function calls (not just
memory intrinsics). The logic is very similar to what already existed (except
that we want to add this metadata even for functions taking no relevant
parameters). This metadata can be used by ModRef queries in the caller after
inlining.
This addresses the first part of PR20500. Adding noalias metadata during
inlining is still turned off by default.

The lifetime intrinsics need some work in order to make it clear which

For now dropping this optimization avoids a miscompilation.
Patch by Björn Steinbrink.
llvm-svn: 214336
This is the first commit in a series that add an @llvm.assume intrinsic which
can be used to provide the optimizer with a condition it may assume to be true
(when the control flow would hit the intrinsic call). Some basic properties are added here:
- llvm.invariant(true) is dead.
- llvm.invariant(false) is unreachable (this directly corresponds to the
documented behavior of MSVC's __assume(0)), so is llvm.invariant(undef).
The intrinsic is tagged as writing arbitrarily, in order to maintain control
dependencies. BasicAA has been updated, however, to return NoModRef for any
particular location-based query so that we don't unnecessarily block code
motion.

This functionality is currently turned off by default.
Part of the motivation for introducing scoped-noalias metadata is to enable the
preservation of noalias parameter attribute information after inlining.
Sometimes this can be inferred from the code in the caller after inlining, but
often we simply lose valuable information.
The overall process if fairly simple:
1. Create a new unqiue scope domain.
2. For each (used) noalias parameter, create a new alias scope.
3. For each pointer, collect the underlying objects. Add a noalias scope for
each noalias parameter from which we're not derived (and has not been
captured prior to that point).
4. Add an alias.scope for each noalias parameter from which we might be
derived (or has been captured before that point).
Note that the capture checks apply only if one of the underlying objects is not
an identified function-local object.
llvm-svn: 213949
This commit adds scoped noalias metadata. The primary motivations for this
feature are:
1. To preserve noalias function attribute information when inlining
2. To provide the ability to model block-scope C99 restrict pointers
Neither of these two abilities are added here, only the necessary
infrastructure. In fact, there should be no change to existing functionality,
only the addition of new features. The logic that converts noalias function
parameters into this metadata during inlining will come in a follow-up commit.
What is added here is the ability to generally specify noalias memory-access
sets. Regarding the metadata, alias-analysis scopes are defined similar to TBAA
nodes:
!scope0 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope of foo()" }
!scope1 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 1", metadata !scope0 }
!scope2 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2", metadata !scope0 }
!scope3 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2.1", metadata !scope2 }
!scope4 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2.2", metadata !scope2 }
Loads and stores can be tagged with an alias-analysis scope, and also, with a
noalias tag for a specific scope:
... = load %ptr1, !alias.scope !{ !scope1 }
... = load %ptr2, !alias.scope !{ !scope1, !scope2 }, !noalias !{ !scope1 }
When evaluating an aliasing query, if one of the instructions is associated
with an alias.scope id that is identical to the noalias scope associated with
the other instruction, or is a descendant (in the scope hierarchy) of the
noalias scope associated with the other instruction, then the two memory
accesses are assumed not to alias.
Note that is the first element of the scope metadata is a string, then it can
be combined accross functions and translation units. The string can be replaced
by a self-reference to create globally unqiue scope identifiers.
[Note: This overview is slightly stylized, since the metadata nodes really need
to just be numbers (!0 instead of !scope0), and the scope lists are also global
unnamed metadata.]
Existing noalias metadata in a callee is "cloned" for use by the inlined code.
This is necessary because the aliasing scopes are unique to each call site
(because of possible control dependencies on the aliasing properties). For
example, consider a function: foo(noalias a, noalias b) { *a = *b; } that gets
inlined into bar() { ... if (...) foo(a1, b1); ... if (...) foo(a2, b2); } --
now just because we know that a1 does not alias with b1 at the first call site,
and a2 does not alias with b2 at the second call site, we cannot let inlining
these functons have the metadata imply that a1 does not alias with b2.

string_ostream is a safe and efficient string builder that combines opaque
stack storage with a built-in ostream interface.
small_string_ostream<bytes> additionally permits an explicit stack storage size

transferred to the heap.
This convenient class can be used in most places an

without byte truncation.
The patch also converts much of LLVM to use the new facility. These changes
include several probable bug fixes for truncated output, a programming error
that's no longer possible with the new interface.

When LowerSwitch transforms a switch instruction into a tree of ifs it
is actually performing a binary search into the various case ranges, to
see if the current value falls into one cases range of values.
So, if we have a program with something like this:
switch (a) {
case 0:
do0();
break;
case 1:
do1();
break;
case 2:
do2();
break;
default:
break;
}
the code produced is something like this:
if (a < 1) {
if (a == 0) {
do0();
}
} else {
if (a < 2) {
if (a == 1) {
do1();
}
} else {
if (a == 2) {
do2();
}
}
}
This code is inefficient because the check (a == 1) to execute do1() is
not needed.
The reason is that because we already checked that (a >= 1) initially by
checking that also (a < 2) we basically already inferred that (a == 1)
without the need of an extra basic block spawned to check if actually (a
== 1).
The patch addresses this problem by keeping track of already
checked bounds in the LowerSwitch algorithm, so that when the time
arrives to produce a Leaf Block that checks the equality with the case
value / range the algorithm can decide if that block is really needed
depending on the already checked bounds .
For example, the above with "a = 1" would work like this:
the bounds start as LB: NONE , UB: NONE
as (a < 1) is emitted the bounds for the else path become LB: 1 UB:
NONE. This happens because by failing the test (a < 1) we know that the
value "a" cannot be smaller than 1 if we enter the else branch.
After the emitting the check (a < 2) the bounds in the if branch become
LB: 1 UB: 1. This is because by checking that "a" is smaller than 2 then
the upper bound becomes 2 - 1 = 1.
When it is time to emit the leaf block for "case 1:" we notice that 1
can be squeezed exactly in between the LB and UB, which means that if we
arrived to that block there is no need to emit a block that checks if (a
== 1).

This patch changes GlobalAlias to point to an arbitrary ConstantExpr and it is
up to MC (or the system assembler) to decide if that expression is valid or not.
This reduces our ability to diagnose invalid uses and how early we can spot
them, but it also lets us do things like
@test5 = alias inttoptr(i32 sub (i32 ptrtoint (i32* @test2 to i32),
i32 ptrtoint (i32* @bar to i32)) to i32*)
An important implication of this patch is that the notion of aliased global
doesn't exist any more. The alias has to encode the information needed to
access it in its metadata (linkage, visibility, type, etc).
Another consequence to notice is that getSection has to return a "const char *".
It could return a NullTerminatedStringRef if there was such a thing, but when
that was proposed the decision was to just uses "const char*" for that.

This patch changes the design of GlobalAlias so that it doesn't take a
ConstantExpr anymore. It now points directly to a GlobalObject, but its type is
independent of the aliasee type.
To avoid changing all alias related tests in this patches, I kept the common
syntax
@foo = alias i32* @bar
to mean the same as now. The cases that used to use cast now use the more
general syntax
@foo = alias i16, i32* @bar.
Note that GlobalAlias now behaves a bit more like GlobalVariable. We
know that its type is always a pointer, so we omit the '*'.
For the bitcode, a nice surprise is that we were writing both identical types
already, so the format change is minimal. Auto upgrade is handled by looking
through the casts and no new fields are needed for now. New bitcode will
simply have different types for Alias and Aliasee.
One last interesting point in the patch is that replaceAllUsesWith becomes
smart enough to avoid putting a ConstantExpr in the aliasee. This seems better
than checking and updating every caller.
A followup patch will delete getAliasedGlobal now that it is redundant. Another
patch will add support for an explicit offset.
