On ELF and COFF an alias is just another name for a position in the file.
There is no way to refer to a position in another file, so an alias to
undefined is meaningless.
MachO currently doesn't support aliases. The spec has a N_INDR, which when
implemented will have a different set of restrictions. Adding support for
it shouldn't be harder than any other IR extension.
For now, having the IR represent what is actually possible with current
tools makes it easier to fix the design of GlobalAlias.

'OK_NonUniformConstValue' to identify operands which are constants but
not constant splats.
The cost model now allows returning 'OK_NonUniformConstValue'
for non splat operands that are instances of ConstantVector or
ConstantDataVector.
With this change, targets are now able to compute different costs
for instructions with non-uniform constant operands.
For example, On X86 the cost of a vector shift may vary depending on whether
the second operand is a uniform or non-uniform constant.
This patch applies the following changes:
- The cost model computation now takes into account non-uniform constants;
- The cost of vector shift instructions has been improved in
X86TargetTransformInfo analysis pass;
- BBVectorize, SLPVectorizer and LoopVectorize now know how to distinguish
between non-uniform and uniform constant operands.
Added a new test to verify that the output of opt
'-cost-model -analyze' is valid in the following configurations: SSE2,
SSE4.1, AVX, AVX2.

The most important part of this is probably adding any cost at all for
operations like zext <8 x i8> to <8 x i32>. Before they were being
recorded as extremely costly (24, I believe) which made LLVM fall back
on a 4-wide vectorisation of a loop.
It also rebalances the values for sext, zext and trunc. Lacking any
other sane metric that might work across CPU microarchitectures I went
for instructions. This seems to be in reasonable accord with the rest
of the table (sitofp, ...) though no doubt at least one value is
sub-optimal for some bizarre reason.
Finally, separate AVX and AVX2 values are provided where appropriate.
The CodeGen is quite different in many cases.

The primary motivation for this pass is to separate the call graph
analysis used by the new pass manager's CGSCC pass management from the
existing call graph analysis pass. That analysis pass is (somewhat
unfortunately) over-constrained by the existing CallGraphSCCPassManager
requirements. Those requirements make it *really* hard to cleanly layer
the needed functionality for the new pass manager on top of the existing
analysis.
However, there are also a bunch of things that the pass manager would
specifically benefit from doing differently from the existing call graph
analysis, and this new implementation tries to address several of them:
- Be lazy about scanning function definitions. The existing pass eagerly
scans the entire module to build the initial graph. This new pass is
significantly more lazy, and I plan to push this even further to
maximize locality during CGSCC walks.
- Don't use a single synthetic node to partition functions with an
indirect call from functions whose address is taken. This node creates
a huge choke-point which would preclude good parallelization across
the fanout of the SCC graph when we got to the point of looking at
such changes to LLVM.
- Use a memory dense and lightweight representation of the call graph
rather than value handles and tracking call instructions. This will
require explicit update calls instead of some updates working
transparently, but should end up being significantly more efficient.
The explicit update calls ended up being needed in many cases for the
existing call graph so we don't really lose anything.
- Doesn't explicitly model SCCs and thus doesn't provide an "identity"
for an SCC which is stable across updates. This is essential for the
new pass manager to work correctly.
- Only form the graph necessary for traversing all of the functions in
an SCC friendly order. This is a much simpler graph structure and
should be more memory dense. It does limit the ways in which it is
appropriate to use this analysis. I wish I had a better name than
"call graph". I've commented extensively this aspect.
This is still very much a WIP, in fact it is really just the initial
bits. But it is about the fourth version of the initial bits that I've
implemented with each of the others running into really frustrating
problms. This looks like it will actually work and I'd like to split the
actual complexity across commits for the sake of my reviewers. =] The
rest of the implementation along with lots of wiring will follow
somewhat more rapidly now that there is a good path forward.
Naturally, this doesn't impact any of the existing optimizer. This code
is specific to the new pass manager.
A bunch of thanks are deserved for the various folks that have helped
with the design of this, especially Nick Lewycky who actually sat with
me to go through the fundamentals of the final version here.

Unfortunately, this in turn led to some lower quality SCEVs due to some different paths through expression simplification, so add getUDivExactExpr and use it. This fixes all instances of the problems that I found, but we can make that function smarter as necessary.
Merge test "xor-and.ll" into "and-xor.ll" since I needed to update it anyways. Test 'nsw-offset.ll' analyzes a little deeper, %n now gets a scev in terms of %no instead of a SCEVUnknown.

cycles
This allows the value equality check to work even if we don't have a dominator
tree. Also add some more comments.
I was worried about compile time impacts and did not implement reachability but
used the dominance check in the initial patch. The trade-off was that the
dominator tree was required.
The llvm utility function isPotentiallyReachable cuts off the recursive search
after 32 visits. Testing did not show any compile time regressions showing my
worries unjustfied.
No compile time or performance regressions at O3 -flto -mavx on test-suite +
externals.
Addresses review comments from r198290.

When there are cycles in the value graph we have to be careful interpreting
"Value*" identity as "value" equivalence. We interpret the value of a phi node
as the value of its operands.
When we check for value equivalence now we make sure that the "Value*" dominates
all cycles (phis).
%0 = phi [%noaliasval, %addr2]
%l = load %ptr
%addr1 = gep @a, 0, %l
%addr2 = gep @a, 0, (%l + 1)
store %ptr ...
Before this patch we would return NoAlias for (%0, %addr1) which is wrong
because the value of the load is from different iterations of the loop.
Tested on x86_64 -mavx at O3 and O3 -flto with no performance or compile time
regressions.

The tests just hit this with a different sized

to use this to break it.

Patch by Michele Scandale!
Rewrite of the functions used to compute the backedge taken count of a
loop on LT and GT comparisons.
I decided to split the handling of LT and GT cases becasue the trick
"a > b == -a < -b" in some cases prevents the trip count computation
due to the multiplication by -1 on the two operands of the
comparison. This issue comes from the conservative computation of
value range of SCEVs: taking the negative SCEV of an expression that
have a small positive range (e.g. [0,31]), we would have a SCEV with a
fullset as value range.
Indeed, in the new rewritten function I tried to better handle the
maximum backedge taken count computation when MAX/MIN expression are
used to handle the cases where no entry guard is found.
Some test have been modified in order to check the new value correctly
(I manually check them and reasoning on possible overflow the new
values seem correct).
I finally added a new test case related to the multiplication by -1
issue on GT comparisons.

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.

We can't do this for the general case as saying a GEP with a negative index
doesn't have unsigned wrap isn't valid for negative indices.
%gep = getelementptr inbounds i32* %p, i64 -1
But an inbounds GEP cannot run past the end of address space. So we check for
the very common case of a positive index and make GEPs derived from that NUW.
Together with Andy's recent non-unit stride work this lets us analyze loops
like
void foo3(int *a, int *b) {
for (; a < b; a++) {}
}

Major steps include:
1). introduces a not-addr-taken bit-field in GlobalVariable
2). GlobalOpt pass sets "not-address-taken" if it proves a global varirable
dosen't have its address taken.
3). AA use this info for disambiguation.

We can have a struct type with a single field and the field does not start
with 0. In that case, we should correctly update the offset.

The test before wasn't successfully testing this
since it was missing the datalayout piece to change
the size of the second address space.

SCEV currently fails to compute loop counts for nonunit stride
loops. This comes up frequently. It prevents loop optimization and
forces vectorization to insert extra loop checks.
For example:
void foo(int n, int *x) {
for (int i = 0; i < n; i += 3) {
x[i] = i;
x[i+1] = i+1;
x[i+2] = i+2;
}
}
We need to properly handle the case in which limit > INT_MAX-stride. In
the above case: n > INT_MAX-3. In this case the loop counter will step
beyond the limit and overflow at the same time. However, knowing that
signed integer overlow in undefined, we can assume the loop test
behavior is arbitrary after overflow. This obeys both C undefined
behavior rules, and the more strict LLVM poison value rules.
I'm finally fixing this in response to Hal Finkel's persistence.
The most probable reason that we never optimized this before is that
we were being careful to handle case where the developer expected a
side-effect free infinite loop relying on overflow:
for (int i = 0; i < n; i += s) {
++j;
}
return j;
If INT_MAX+1 is a multiple of s and n > INT_MAX-s, then we might
expect an infinite loop. However there are plenty of ways to achieve
this effect without relying on undefined behavior of signed overflow.

infrastructure.
This was essentially work toward PGO based on a design that had several
flaws, partially dating from a time when LLVM had a different
architecture, and with an effort to modernize it abandoned without being
completed. Since then, it has bitrotted for several years further. The
result is nearly unusable, and isn't helping any of the modern PGO
efforts. Instead, it is getting in the way, adding confusion about PGO
in LLVM and distracting everyone with maintenance on essentially dead
code. Removing it paves the way for modern efforts around PGO.
Among other effects, this removes the last of the runtime libraries from
LLVM. Those are being developed in the separate 'compiler-rt' project
now, with somewhat different licensing specifically more approriate for
runtimes.
llvm-svn: 191835
Remove the command line argument "struct-path-tbaa" since we should not depend
on command line argument to decide which format the IR file is using. Instead,
we check the first operand of the tbaa tag node, if it is a MDNode, we treat
it as struct-path aware TBAA format, otherwise, we treat it as scalar TBAA
format.
When clang starts to use struct-path aware TBAA format no matter whether
struct-path-tbaa is no, and we can auto-upgrade existing bc files, the support
for scalar TBAA format can be dropped.
Existing testing cases are updated to use the struct-path aware TBAA format.

Upcoming SLP vectorization improvements will want to be able to estimate costs
of horizontal reductions. Add infrastructure to support this.
We model reductions as a series of (shufflevector,add) tuples ultimately
followed by an extractelement. For example, for an add-reduction of <4 x float>
we could generate the following sequence:
(v0, v1, v2, v3)
\ \ / /
\ \ /
+ +
(v0+v2, v1+v3, undef, undef)
\ /
((v0+v2) + (v1+v3), undef, undef)
%rdx.shuf = shufflevector <4 x float> %rdx, <4 x float> undef,
<4 x i32> <i32 2, i32 3, i32 undef, i32 undef>
%bin.rdx = fadd <4 x float> %rdx, %rdx.shuf
%rdx.shuf7 = shufflevector <4 x float> %bin.rdx, <4 x float> undef,
<4 x i32> <i32 1, i32 undef, i32 undef, i32 undef>
%bin.rdx8 = fadd <4 x float> %bin.rdx, %rdx.shuf7
%r = extractelement <4 x float> %bin.rdx8, i32 0
This commit adds a cost model interface "getReductionCost(Opcode, Ty, Pairwise)"
that will allow clients to ask for the cost of such a reduction (as backends
might generate more efficient code than the cost of the individual instructions
summed up). This interface is excercised by the CostModel analysis pass which
looks for reduction patterns like the one above - starting at extractelements -
and if it sees a matching sequence will call the cost model interface.
We will also support a second form of pairwise reduction that is well supported
on common architectures (haddps, vpadd, faddp).

- Instead of setting the suffixes in a bunch of places, just set one master
list in the top-level config. We now only modify the suffix list in a few
suites that have one particular unique suffix (.ml, .mc, .yaml, .td, .py).
- Aside from removing the need for a bunch of lit.local.cfg files, this enables
4 tests that were inadvertently being skipped (one in
Transforms/BranchFolding, a .s file each in DebugInfo/AArch64 and
CodeGen/PowerPC, and one in CodeGen/SI which is now failing and has been
XFAILED).
- This commit also fixes a bunch of config files to use config.root instead of
older copy-pasted code.

This patch fixes the multiple breakages on ARM test-suite after the SLP
vectorizer was introduced by default on O3. The problem was an illegal
vector type on ARMTTI::getCmpSelInstrCost() <3 x i1> which is not simple.
The guard protects this code from breaking (cause of the problems) but
doesn't fix the issue that is generating the odd vector in the first
place, which also needs to be investigated.
