CGP tail-duplicates rets into blocks that end with a call that feed the ret.
This puts the call in tail position, potentially allowing the DAG builder to
lower it as a tail call. To avoid tail duplication in cases where we won't
form the tail call, CGP tried to predict whether this is going to be possible,
and avoids doing it when lowering as a tail call will definitely fail.
However, it was being too conservative by always throwing away calls to
functions with a signext/zeroext attribute on the return type.
Instead, we can use the same logic the builder uses to determine whether the
attributes work out.

This update was done with the following bash script:
find test/CodeGen -name "*.ll" | \
while read NAME; do
echo "$NAME"
if ! grep -q "^; *RUN: *llc.*debug" $NAME; then
TEMP=`mktemp -t temp`
cp $NAME $TEMP
sed -n "s/^define [^@]*@\([A-Za-z0-9_]*\)(.*$/\1/p" < $NAME | \
while read FUNC; do
sed -i '' "s/;\(.*\)\([A-Za-z0-9_-]*\):\( *\)$FUNC: *\$/;\1\2-LABEL:\3$FUNC:/g" $TEMP
done
sed -i '' "s/;\(.*\)-LABEL-LABEL:/;\1-LABEL:/" $TEMP
sed -i '' "s/;\(.*\)-NEXT-LABEL:/;\1-NEXT:/" $TEMP
sed -i '' "s/;\(.*\)-NOT-LABEL:/;\1-NOT:/" $TEMP
sed -i '' "s/;\(.*\)-DAG-LABEL:/;\1-DAG:/" $TEMP
mv $TEMP $NAME

to have single return block (at least getting there) for optimizations. This
is general goodness but it would prevent some tailcall optimizations.
One specific case is code like this:
int f1(void);
int f2(void);
int f3(void);
int f4(void);
int f5(void);
int f6(void);
int foo(int x) {
switch(x) {
case 1: return f1();
case 2: return f2();
case 3: return f3();
case 4: return f4();
case 5: return f5();
case 6: return f6();
}
}
=>
LBB0_2: ## %sw.bb
callq _f1
popq %rbp
ret
LBB0_3: ## %sw.bb1
callq _f2
popq %rbp
ret
LBB0_4: ## %sw.bb3
callq _f3
popq %rbp
ret
This patch teaches codegenprep to duplicate returns when the return value
is a phi and where the phi operands are produced by tail calls followed by
an unconditional branch:
sw.bb7: ; preds = %entry
%call8 = tail call i32 @f5() nounwind
br label %return
sw.bb9: ; preds = %entry
%call10 = tail call i32 @f6() nounwind
br label %return
return:
%retval.0 = phi i32 [ %call10, %sw.bb9 ], [ %call8, %sw.bb7 ], ... [ 0, %entry ]
ret i32 %retval.0
This allows codegen to generate better code like this:
LBB0_2: ## %sw.bb
jmp _f1 ## TAILCALL
LBB0_3: ## %sw.bb1
jmp _f2 ## TAILCALL
LBB0_4: ## %sw.bb3
jmp _f3 ## TAILCALL
