This has shown better results for 2mm, 3mm and a couple of other benchmarks.
After this we show consistenly better results as PoCC with maxfuse. We need
to see if PoCC can also give better results with another fusion strategy.

maximise_band_depth does not seem to have any effect for now, but it may help to
increase the amount of tileable loops. We expose the flag to be able to analyze
its effects when looking into individual benchmarks.

This speeds up the scheduler by orders of magnitude and in addition yields often
to a better schedule.
With this we can compile all polybench kernels with less than 5x compile time
overhead. In general the overhead is even less than 2-3x. This is still with
running a lot of redundant passes and no compile time tuning at all. There are
several obvious areas where we can improve here further.
There are also two test cases where we cannot find a schedule any more (cholesky
and another). I will look into them later on.
With this we have a very solid base line from which we can start to optimize
further.
llvm-svn: 149263
In case we can not analyze an access function, we do not discard the SCoP, but
assume conservatively that all memory accesses that can be derived from our base
pointer may be accessed.

To extract a preoptimized LLVM-IR file from a C-file run:
clang -Xclang -load -Xclang LLVMPolly.so -O0 -mllvm -polly file.c -S -emit-llvm
On the generated file you can directly run passes such as:
'opt -view-scops file.s'

Previously the scheduler was splitting bands at the level at which it detected
that the splitting of the band is necessary. This may introduce an additional
level of bands, that can be avoided by backtracking and splitting on a higher
level. Additional splits reduce the number of loops that can be tiled, such that
avoiding splits and maximizing the band depth seems preferable.
As a first data point we looked at 2mm and 3mm from the polybench test suite.
For both maximizing the tilable bands results in a significant (5-10x)
performance improvement.
This patch enables the isl scheduler option to maximize the band depth.
llvm-svn: 146557
If larger coefficients appear as part of the input dependences, the schedule
calculation can take a very long time. We observed that the main overhead in
this calculation is due to optimizing the constant coefficients. They are
misused to increase locality by merging several unrelated dimensions into a
single dimension. This unwanted optimization increases the complexity of the
generated code and furthermore slows it down.
We use a new isl scheduler option to bound the values in the constant dimension
by a user defined value (20 in our case). If the right value is choosen, costly
overoptimization is prevented.
This solution works, but requires a specific (here almost randomly choosen)
value by which the constants are bound. For the moment, this is our best
solution, but we hope to to find a more generic one later on.
After these patch the extremly long compile time for simple kernels like 2mm or
3mm is reduced to a reasonable amount of time (Not more than a couple of seconds
even in debug mode).
llvm-svn: 146556
We forgot to include the unistd.h header file that defines the
functions mentioned above. This was not a problem with gnu C++ library,
however it did not work for libc++.
llvm-svn: 145790
We disable Polly by default and add a new option '-polly' that enables Polly.
This allows us to create an the alias
$ alias clang clang -Xclang -load -Xclang LLVMPolly.so
which loads Polly always into clang. It can now be enabled by running:
$ clang -O3 -mllvm -polly file.c
To enable it by default an alias pollycc can be create
$ alias pollycc clang -O3 -mllvm -polly

- Use uppercase letters according to the LLVM coding style
- Rename functions to not include 'tiledSchedule', but just Schedule. This
is more correct as tiling might be disabled.

The new isl_id support for parmeters created problems when importing new
access functions. Even though the parameters had the same names,
they were mapped to different ids and where therefore incompatible.
We copy the ids now from the old parameter dimensions. This fixes the
problem.
llvm-svn: 144642
Parameters can be complex SCEV expressions, but they can also be single scalar
values. If a parameters is such a simple scalar value and the value is named,
use this name to name the isl parameter dimensions.

This does not work reliable and is probably not needed. I accidentally changed
this in this recent commit:

ScopDetect: Use INVALID macro to fail in case of aliasing
This simplifies the code and also makes the error message available to the
graphviz scop viewer.

address is part of the access function. Also remove unused special cases that
were necessery when the base address was still contained in the access function
llvm-svn: 144280
Previously we allowed in access functions only a single SCEVUnknown, which later
became the base address. We now use getPointerBase() to derive the base address
and all remaining unknowns are handled as parameters. This allows us to handle
cases like A[b+c];
llvm-svn: 144278
This check was necessary because of the use AffineSCEVIterator in TempScopInfo.
As we removed this use recently it is not necessary any more.
llvm-svn: 144228
Instead of using TempScop to find parameters, we detect them directly
on the SCEV. This allows us to remove the TempScop parameter detection
in a subsequent commit.
This fixes a bug reported by Marcello Maggioni <hayarms@gmail.com>
llvm-svn: 144087
Previously we built a context that contained already all parameter dimensions
from the start. We now build a context without any parameter dimensions and
extend the context as needed. All parameter dimensions are added during final
realignment.
llvm-svn: 144085
We currently run the old memory access checker in parallel, as we would
otherwise fail in TempScop because of currently unsupported functions. We will
remove the old memory access checker as soon as TempScop is fixed.
llvm-svn: 143654
The SCEV Validator is used to check if the bound of a loop can be translated
into a polyhedral constraint. The new validator is more general as the check
used previously and e.g. allows bounds like 'smax 1, %a'. At the moment, we
only allow signed comparisons. Also, the new validator is only used to verify
loop bounds. Memory accesses are still handled by the old validator.
llvm-svn: 143576
These are remainders of the switch to the newer isl version. At the point of
switching I did not test with PoCC support. I should have done. ;-)

- Use __isl_give and __isl_take
- Convert variables to start with Uppercase letter
- Only assign the 'domain' after it is fully constructed
- Only name it after it is fully constructed
llvm-svn: 141361
Also take the chance and rename access functions to access relations. This is
because we do not only allow plain functions to describe an access, but we
can have any access relation that can be described with linear constraints.

Polly should now be compiled with CLooG 0c252c88946b27b7b61a1a8d8fd7f94d2461dbfd
and isl 56b7d238929980e62218525b4b3be121af386edf. The most convenient way to
update is utils/checkout_cloog.sh.

It may happen that we generate the code of a basic block from the original
scop is code generated several times. The new naming scheme reduces confusing
that earlier appeared as the version numbers of the new basic blocks could
have been interpreted as part of the name of the original basic block.

Due to the recent introduction of isl_id, parameters need now always to be
aligned. This was not yet taken care of in the code path of vectorization and
dependence analysis.

Polly adds, after it is loaded into opt or clang, its passes to the default set
of -O3 passes. This means optimizing a program with clang and Polly becomes as
simple as executing.
clang -Xclang -load -Xclang lib/LLVMPolly.so -O3 program.c
The same should work for dragonegg powered gfortran, g++, ... or any other tool
that uses the PassManagerBuilder.
Warning: Even though using Polly became with this commit extremly easy, Polly
is still Pre-Alpha Quality. This means in most cases it will rather
destroy the world than doing anything positive. ;-)

I am planning to eliminate the TempScopInfo pass. To simplify this I remove
some features that may later be added to the ScopInfo pass.
The interchange pass is currently strongly tested and furthermore ment to be
replaced by the general scheduling optimizer. Reductions itself can later
be added easily.
llvm-svn: 138219
Because of me not understanding the LLVM pass structure well, I did not find a
good way to allocate isl_ctx and to free it later without getting issues with
reference counting. I now found this place, such that we can free isl_ctx. This
patch also fixes the memory leaks that were ignored beforehand.
llvm-svn: 138204
Until today, we compared two affine expressions by defining two maps describing
them, creating an union of those maps, adding constraints that do the comparison
and projecting out unneeded dimensions.
This was simplified to using the isl_pw_aff representation of the affine
expressions and using the relevant isl functions to compare them.
llvm-svn: 137932
At the moment, we still remove the ids after all data structures are created,
as later passes do not yet support ids. This limitation will be removed later.
llvm-svn: 137931
Do not use AffFunc to derive the affine expressions, but use isl_pw_aff to
analyze the original SCEV directly. This will allow several simplifications in
follow up patches, with the final goal of removing AffFunc completely.
llvm-svn: 137930
Code is generated for a simple access function change imported
from JSCOP file. An access of A[i] is changed to A[0]. The code
for A[0] is generated directly without refering to isl function calls.

We just strip-mine the innermost dimension by the vector width. This does not
take into account if this dimension is parallel nor if it is constant.
llvm-svn: 134186
isl introduced a new representation for the schedules it calculates. The new
representation uses a forest of bands and is closer to the structure of the
data as the old interface. Switch to the new interface, as it is nicer to use
and as the old interface will soon be removed from isl.
WARNING: This commit needs a version of isl that is more recent that the one
included in CLooG. See:

Instead of deleting the old code, keep it on the side in an if-branch. It will
either be deleted by the dead code elimination or we can use it as fallback.
llvm-svn: 131352
Instead of returning a pointer to the domain, we return a new copy of it. This
is safer, as we do not give access to internal objects. It is also not
expensive, as isl will just increment a reference counter.
