Sanjay Patel e08783e2f5 [EarlyCSE] detect equivalence of selects with inverse conditions and commuted operands (PR41101)
This is 1 of the problems discussed in the post-commit thread for:
rL355741 / http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20190311/635516.html
and filed as:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41101

Instcombine tries to canonicalize some of these cases (and there's room for improvement
there independently of this patch), but it can't always do that because of extra uses.
So we need to recognize these commuted operand patterns here in EarlyCSE. This is similar
to how we detect commuted compares and commuted min/max/abs.

Alina Sbirlea a782a70ad9 [EarlyCSEwMemorySSA] Add MSSA verification and tests to make EarlyCSE failures easier to track.
Summary:
EarlyCSE can make IR changes that will leave MemorySSA with accesses claiming to be optimized, but for which a subsequent MemorySSA run will yield a different optimized result.
Due to relying on AA queries, we can't fix this in general, unless we recompute MemorySSA.
Adding some tests to track this and a basic verify for future potential failures.

Tim Renouf 904343f879 [AMDGPU] Add support for multi-dword s.buffer.load intrinsic
Summary:
Patch by Marek Olsak and David Stuttard, both of AMD.

This adds a new amdgcn intrinsic supporting s.buffer.load, in particular
multiple dword variants. These are convenient to use from some front-end
implementations.

Also modified the existing llvm.SI.load.const intrinsic to common up the
underlying implementation.

This modification also requires that we can lower to non-uniform loads correctly
by splitting larger dword variants into sizes supported by the non-uniform
versions of the load.

V2: Addressed minor review comments.
V3: i1 glc is now i32 cachepolicy for consistency with buffer and
    tbuffer intrinsics, plus fixed formatting issue.
V4: Added glc test.

George Burgess IV ff08c80efc [MemorySSA] "Fix" lifetime intrinsic handling
MemorySSA currently creates MemoryAccesses for lifetime intrinsics, and
sometimes treats them as clobbers. This may/may not be the best way
forward, but while we're doing it, we should consider
MayAlias/PartialAlias to be clobbers.

The ideal fix here is probably to remove all of this reasoning about
lifetimes from MemorySSA + put it into the passes that need to care. But
that's a wayyy broader fix that needs some consensus, and we have
miscompiles + a release branch today, and this should solve the
miscompiles just as well.

differential revision is D43269. Landing without an explicit LGTM (and
without using the special please-autoclose-this syntax) so we can still
use that revision as a place to decide what the right fix here is.

Craig Topper f14e62c9a5 [EarlyCSE] Improve EarlyCSE of some absolute value cases.
Change matchSelectPattern to return X and -X for ABS/NABS in a well defined order. Adjust EarlyCSE to account for this. Ensure the SPF result is some kind of min/max and not abs/nabs in one place in InstCombine that made me nervous.

Prevously we returned the two operands of the compare part of the abs pattern. The RHS is always going to be a 0i, 1 or -1 constant. This isn't a very meaningful thing to return for any one. There's also some freedom in the abs pattern as to what happens when the value is equal to 0. This freedom led to early cse failing to match when different constants were used in otherwise equivalent operations. By returning the input and its negation in a defined order we can ensure an exact match. This also makes sure both patterns use the exact same subtract instruction for the negation. I believe CSE should evebntually make this happen and properly merge the nsw/nuw flags. But I'm not familiar with CSE and what order it does things in so it seemed like it might be good to really enforce that they were the same.

Shiva Chen 2c864551df [DebugInfo] Add DILabel metadata and intrinsic llvm.dbg.label.
In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is

!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)

We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is

llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)

It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.

We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.

Philip Reames 422024a1b7 [EarlyCSE] Don't hide earler invariant.scopes
If we've already established an invariant scope with an earlier generation, we don't want to hide it in the scoped hash table with one with a later generation.  I noticed this when working on the invariant-load handling, but it also applies to the invariant.start case as well.

Without this change, my previous patch for invariant-load regresses some cases, so I'm pushing this without waiting for review.  This is why you don't make last minute tweaks to patches to catch "obvious cases" after it's already been reviewed.  Bad Philip!

Philip Reames ca587fe0b4 [EarlyCSE] Reuse invariant scopes for invariant load
This is a follow up to https://reviews.llvm.org/D43716 which rewrites the invariant load handling using the new infrastructure. It's slightly more powerful, but only in somewhat minor ways for the moment. It's not clear that DSE of stores to invariant locations is actually interesting since why would your IR have such a construct to start with?

Note: The submitted version is slightly different than the reviewed one.  I realized the scope could start for an invariant load which was proven redundant and removed.  Added a test case to illustrate that as well.

Philip Reames 0adbb19409 [EarlyCSE] Exploit open ended invariant.start scopes
If we have an invariant.start with no corresponding invariant.end, then the memory location becomes invariant indefinitely after the invariant.start. As a result, anything dominated by the start is guaranteed to see the value the memory location had when the invariant.start executed.

This patch adds an AvailableInvariants table which tracks the generation a particular memory location became invariant and then uses that information to allow value forwarding that would otherwise be disallowed by potentially aliasing stores. (Reminder: In EarlyCSE everything clobbers everything by default.)

This should be compatible with the MemorySSA variant, but design is generational. We can and should add first class support for invariant.start within MemorySSA at a later time.  I took a quick look at doing so, but probably need some input from a MemorySSA expert.

Dan Gohman 2c74fe977d Add an @llvm.sideeffect intrinsic
This patch implements Chandler's idea [0] for supporting languages that
require support for infinite loops with side effects, such as Rust, providing
part of a solution to bug 965 [1].

Specifically, it adds an `llvm.sideeffect()` intrinsic, which has no actual
effect, but which appears to optimization passes to have obscure side effects,
such that they don't optimize away loops containing it. It also teaches
several optimization passes to ignore this intrinsic, so that it doesn't
significantly impact optimization in most cases.

As discussed on llvm-dev [2], this patch is the first of two major parts.
The second part, to change LLVM's semantics to have defined behavior
on infinite loops by default, with a function attribute for opting into
potential-undefined-behavior, will be implemented and posted for review in
a separate patch.

Philip Reames 15145fb7b1 [EarlyCSE] DSE of atomic unordered stores
The rules for removing trivially dead stores are a lot less complicated than loads. Since we know the later store post dominates the former and the former dominates the later, unless the former has side effects other than the actual store, we can remove it. One slightly surprising thing is that we can freely remove atomic stores, even if the later one isn't atomic. There's no guarantee the atomic one was every visible.

For the moment, we don't handle DSE of ordered atomic stores. We could extend the same chain of reasoning to them, but the catch is we'd then have to model the ordering effect without a store instruction. Since our fences are a stronger than our operation orderings, simple using a fence isn't an obvious win. This arguable calls for a refinement in our fence specification, but that's (much) later work.

Philip Reames 8fc2cbf933 [EarlyCSE] Value forwarding for unordered atomics
This patch teaches the fully redundant load part of EarlyCSE how to forward from atomic and volatile loads and stores, and how to eliminate unordered atomics (only). This patch does not include dead store elimination support for unordered atomics, that will follow in the near future.

The basic idea is that we allow all loads and stores to be tracked by the AvailableLoad table. We store a bit in the table which tracks whether load/store was atomic, and then only replace atomic loads with ones which were also atomic.

No attempt is made to refine our handling of ordered loads or stores. Those are still treated as full fences. We could pretty easily extend the release fence handling to release stores, but that should be a separate patch.

Philip Reames dfd890dd3a Allow value forwarding past release fences in EarlyCSE
A release fence acts as a publication barrier for stores within the current thread to become visible to other threads which might observe the release fence. It does not require the current thread to observe stores performed on other threads. As a result, we can allow store-load and load-store forwarding across a release fence.

We do need to make sure that stores before the fence can't be eliminated even if there's another store to the same location after the fence. In theory, we could reorder the second store above the fence and *then* eliminate the former, but we can't do this if the stores are on opposite sides of the fence.

Note: While more aggressive then what's there, this patch is still implementing a really conservative ordering.  In particular, I'm not trying to exploit undefined behavior via races, or the fact that the LangRef says only 'atomic' accesses are ordered w.r.t. fences.

Philip Reames 7c78ef7dd9 Extend EarlyCSE to handle basic cases from JumpThreading and CVP
This patch extends EarlyCSE to take advantage of the information that a controlling branch gives us about the value of a Value within this and dominated basic blocks. If the current block has a single predecessor with a controlling branch, we can infer what the branch condition must have been to execute this block. The actual change to support this is downright simple because EarlyCSE's existing scoped hash table logic deals with most of the complexity around merging.

The patch actually implements two optimizations.
1) The first is analogous to JumpThreading in that it enables EarlyCSE's CSE handling to fold branches which are exactly redundant due to a previous branch to branches on constants. (It doesn't actually replace the branch or change the CFG.) This is pretty clearly a win since it enables substantial CFG simplification before we start trying to inline.
2) The second is analogous to CVP in that it exploits the knowledge gained to replace dominated *uses* of the original value. EarlyCSE does not otherwise reason about specific uses, so this is the more arguable one. It does enable further simplication and constant folding within the rest of the visit by EarlyCSE.

In both cases, the added code only handles the easy dominance based case of each optimization. The general case is deferred to the existing passes.
