LLVM's targets need to know if stack pointer adjustments occur after the
prologue. This is needed to correctly determine if the red-zone is
appropriate to use or if a frame pointer is required.
Normally, LLVM can figure this out very precisely by reasoning about the
contents of the MachineFunction. There is an interesting corner case:
inline assembly.
The vast majority of inline assembly which will perform a push or pop is
done so to pair up with pushf or popf as appropriate. Unfortunately,
this inline assembly doesn't mark the stack pointer as clobbered
because, well, it isn't. The stack pointer is decremented and then
immediately incremented. Because of this, LLVM was changed in r256456
to conservatively assume that inline assembly contain a sequence of
stack operations. This is unfortunate because the vast majority of
inline assembly will not end up manipulating the stack pointer in any
way at all.
Instead, let's provide a more principled solution: an intrinsic.
FWIW, other compilers (MSVC and GCC among them) also provide this
functionality as an intrinsic.

A frame pointer must be used if stack pointer is modified after the
prologue. LLVM will emit pushf/popf if we need to save/restore the
FLAGS register, requiring us to have a frame pointer for the function.
There is a small twist: this sequence might exist in user code via
inline-assembly. For now, conservatively assume that such functions
require a frame pointer. For real world justification, please see
clang's implementation of __readeflags.
This fixes PR25945.

We can set additional bits in a mask given that we know the other
operand of an AND already has some bits set to zero. This can be more
efficient if doing so allows us to use an instruction which implicitly
sign extends the immediate.
This fixes PR24085.

If our two inputs have known top-zero bit counts M and N, we trivially
know that the output cannot have any bits set in the top (min(M, N)-1)
bits, since nothing could carry past that point.

One of several parallel first steps to remove the target type of pointers,
replacing them with a single opaque pointer type.
This adds an explicit type parameter to the gep instruction so that when the
first parameter becomes an opaque pointer type, the type to gep through is
still available to the instructions.
* This doesn't modify gep operators, only instructions (operators will be
handled separately)
* Textual IR changes only. Bitcode (including upgrade) and changing the
in-memory representation will be in separate changes.
* geps of vectors are transformed as:
getelementptr <4 x float*> %x, ...
->getelementptr float, <4 x float*> %x, ...
Then, once the opaque pointer type is introduced, this will ultimately look
like:
getelementptr float, <4 x ptr> %x
with the unambiguous interpretation that it is a vector of pointers to float.
* address spaces remain on the pointer, not the type:
getelementptr float addrspace(1)* %x
->getelementptr float, float addrspace(1)* %x
Then, eventually:
getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %x
Importantly, the massive amount of test case churn has been automated by
same crappy python code. I had to manually update a few test cases that
wouldn't fit the script's model (r228970,r229196,r229197,r229198). The
python script just massages stdin and writes the result to stdout, I
then wrapped that in a shell script to handle replacing files, then
using the usual find+xargs to migrate all the files.
update.py:
import fileinput
import sys
import re
ibrep = re.compile(r"(^.*?[^%\w]getelementptr inbounds )(((?:<\d* x )?)(.*?)(| addrspace\(\d\)) *\*(|>)(?:$| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$))")
normrep = re.compile( r"(^.*?[^%\w]getelementptr )(((?:<\d* x )?)(.*?)(| addrspace\(\d\)) *\*(|>)(?:$| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$))")
def conv(match, line):
if not match:
return line
line = match.groups()[0]
if len(match.groups()[5]) == 0:
line += match.groups()[2]
line += match.groups()[3]
line += ", "
line += match.groups()[1]
line += "\n"
return line
for line in sys.stdin:
if line.find("getelementptr ") == line.find("getelementptr inbounds"):
if line.find("getelementptr inbounds") != line.find("getelementptr inbounds ("):
line = conv(re.match(ibrep, line), line)
elif line.find("getelementptr ") != line.find("getelementptr ("):
line = conv(re.match(normrep, line), line)
sys.stdout.write(line)
apply.sh:
for name in "$@"
do
python3 `dirname "$0"`/update.py < "$name" > "$name.tmp" && mv "$name.tmp" "$name"
rm -f "$name.tmp"
done
The actual commands:
From llvm/src:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh
From llvm/src/tools/clang:
find test/ -name *.mm -o -name *.m -o -name *.cpp -o -name *.c | xargs -I '{}' ../../apply.sh "{}"
From llvm/src/tools/polly:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh
After that, check-all (with llvm, clang, clang-tools-extra, lld,
compiler-rt, and polly all checked out).
The extra 'rm' in the apply.sh script is due to a few files in clang's test
suite using interesting unicode stuff that my python script was throwing
exceptions on. None of those files needed to be migrated, so it seemed
sufficient to ignore those cases.

Stack realignment occurs after the prolog, not during, for Win64.
Because of this, don't factor in the maximum stack alignment when
establishing a frame pointer.
This fixes PR22572.
llvm-svn: 230113
Win64 has specific contraints on what valid prologues and epilogues look
like. This constraint is born from the flexibility and descriptiveness
of Win64's unwind opcodes.
Prologues previously emitted by LLVM could not be represented by the
unwind opcodes, preventing operations powered by stack unwinding to
successfully work.
