If after if-conversion, most of the instructions in this new BB construct a long and slow dependence chain, it may be slower than cmp/branch, even if the branch has a high miss rate, because the control dependence is transformed into data dependence, and control dependence can be speculated, and thus, the second part can execute in parallel with the first part on modern OOO processor.
This patch checks for the long dependence chain, and give up if-conversion if find one.

This is no-functional-change-intended.
This is repackaging the functionality of D30333 (defer switch-to-lookup-tables) and
D35411 (defer folding unconditional branches) with pass parameters rather than a named
"latesimplifycfg" pass. Now that we have individual options to control the functionality,
we could decouple when these fire (but that's an independent patch if desired).
The next planned step would be to add another option bit to disable the sinking transform
mentioned in D38566. This should also make it clear that the new pass manager needs to
be updated to limit simplifycfg in the same way as the old pass manager.

This was intended to be no-functional-change, but it's not - there's a test diff.
So I thought I should stop here and post it as-is to see if this looks like what was expected
based on the discussion in PR34603:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34603
Notes:
1. The test improvement occurs because the existing 'LateSimplifyCFG' marker is not carried
through the recursive calls to 'SimplifyCFG()->SimplifyCFGOpt().run()->SimplifyCFG()'.
The parameter isn't passed down, so we pick up the default value from the function signature
after the first level. I assumed that was a bug, so I've passed 'Options' down in all of the
'SimplifyCFG' calls.
2. I split 'LateSimplifyCFG' into 2 bits: ConvertSwitchToLookupTable and KeepCanonicalLoops.
This would theoretically allow us to differentiate the transforms controlled by those params
independently.
3. We could stash the optional AssumptionCache pointer and 'LoopHeaders' pointer in the struct too.
I just stopped here to minimize the diffs.
4. Similarly, I stopped short of messing with the pass manager layer. I have another question that
could wait for the follow-up: why is the new pass manager creating the pass with LateSimplifyCFG
set to true no matter where in the pipeline it's creating SimplifyCFG passes?
// Create an early function pass manager to cleanup the output of the
// frontend.
EarlyFPM.addPass(SimplifyCFGPass());
-->
/// \brief Construct a pass with the default thresholds
/// and switch optimizations.
SimplifyCFGPass::SimplifyCFGPass()
: BonusInstThreshold(UserBonusInstThreshold),
LateSimplifyCFG(true) {} <-- switches get converted to lookup tables and loops may not be in canonical form
If this is unintended, then it's possible that the current behavior of dropping the 'LateSimplifyCFG'
setting via recursion was masking this bug.

I noticed this inefficiency while investigating PR34603:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34603
This fix will likely push another bug (we don't maintain state of 'LateSimplifyCFG')
into hiding, but I'll try to clean that up with a follow-up patch anyway.

move test/Transforms/SimplifyCFG/disable-lookup-table.ll into test/Transforms/SimplifyCFG/X86/disable-lookup-table.ll to avoid test failure when X86 backend is not enabled
llvm-svn: 309487
Summary:
When simplifying unconditional branches from empty blocks, we pre-test if the
BB belongs to a set of loop headers and keep the block to prevent passes from
destroying canonical loop structure. However, the current algorithm fails if
the destination of the branch is a loop header. Especially when such a loop's
latch block is folded into loop header it results in additional backedges and
LoopSimplify turns it into a nested loop which prevent later optimizations
from being applied (e.g., loop unrolling and loop interleaving).
This patch augments the existing algorithm by further checking if the
destination of the branch belongs to a set of loop headers and defer
eliminating it if yes to LateSimplifyCFG.

The first variant contains all current transformations except
transforming switches into lookup tables. The second variant
contains all current transformations.
The switch-to-lookup-table conversion results in code that is more
difficult to analyze and optimize by other passes. Most importantly,
it can inhibit Dead Code Elimination. As such it is often beneficial to
only apply this transformation very late. A common example is inlining,
which can often result in range restrictions for the switch expression.
Changes in execution time according to LNT:
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/fp-convert +3.03%
MultiSource/Benchmarks/ASC_Sequoia/CrystalMk/CrystalMk -11.20%

GetCaseResults assumed that a terminator with one successor was an

llvm-svn: 283517
When eliminating or merging almost empty basic blocks, the existence of non-trivial PHI nodes
is currently used to recognize potential loops of which the block is the header and keep the block.
However, the current algorithm fails if the loops' exit condition is evaluated only with volatile
values hence no PHI nodes in the header. Especially when such a loop is an outer loop of a nested
loop, the loop is collapsed into a single loop which prevent later optimizations from being
applied (e.g., transforming nested loops into simplified forms and loop vectorization).
The patch augments the existing PHI node-based check by adding a pre-test if the BB actually
belongs to a set of loop headers and not eliminating it if yes.

This is a fix for:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=26308
With the switch to using the TTI cost model in:
http://reviews.llvm.org/rL228826
...it became possible to hit a zero-cost cycle of instructions (gep -> phi -> gep...),
so we need a cap for the recursion in DominatesMergePoint().
A recursion depth parameter was already added for a different reason in:
http://reviews.llvm.org/rL255660
...so we can just set a limit for it.
I pulled "10" out of the air and made it an independent parameter that we can play with.
It might be higher than it needs to be given the currently low default value of
PHINodeFoldingThreshold (2). That's the starting cost value that we enter the recursion
with, and most instructions have cost set to TCC_Basic (1), so I don't think we're going
to speculate more than 2 instructions with the current parameters.
As noted in the review and the TODO comment, we can do better than just limiting recursion
depth.

This is the last general step to allow more IR-level speculation with a safety harness in place in CodeGenPrepare.
The intent is to restore the behavior enabled by:
http://reviews.llvm.org/rL228826
but prevent bad performance such as:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=24818
Earlier patches in this sequence:
D12882 (disable SimplifyCFG speculation for expensive instructions)
D13297 (have CGP despeculate expensive ops)
D14630 (have CGP despeculate special versions of cttz/ctlz)
As shown in the test cases, we only have two instructions currently affected: ctz for some x86 and fdiv generally.
Allowing exactly one expensive instruction is a bit of a hack, but it lines up with what is currently implemented
in CGP. If we make the despeculation more general in CGP, we can make the speculation here more liberal.
A follow-up patch will adjust the cost for sqrt and possibly other typically expensive math intrinsics (currently
everything is cheap by default). GPU targets would likely want to override those expensive default costs (just as
they probably should already override the cost of div/rem) because just about any math is cheaper than control-flow
on those targets.

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.

After that, check-all (with llvm, clang, clang-tools-extra, lld,

The extra 'rm' in the apply.sh script is due to a few files in clang's test

Now that SimplifyCFG uses TTI for the cost heuristic, we can teach BasicTTIImpl
how to query TLI in order to get a more accurate cost for truncates and
zero-extends.
Before this patch, the basic cost heuristic in TargetTransformInfoImplCRTPBase
would have conservatively returned a 'default' TCC_Basic for all zero-extends,
and TCC_Free for truncates on native types.
This patch improves the heuristic so that we query TLI (if available) to get
more accurate answers. If TLI is available, then methods 'isZExtFree' and
'isTruncateFree' can be used to check if a zext/trunc is free for the target.
Added more test cases to SimplifyCFG/X86/speculate-cttz-ctlz.ll.
With this change, SimplifyCFG is now able to speculate a 'cheap' cttz/ctlz
immediately followed by a free zext/trunc.

Now that SimplifyCFG uses TargetTransformInfo for cost analysis, we

Added test cases in Transforms/SimplifyCFG/X86 to verify that on x86,
SimplifyCFG only speculates a call to cttz/ctlz if it is cheap.

An unreachable default destination can be exploited by other optimizations and

The previous code assumed that such instructions could not have any uses
outside CaseDest, with the motivation that the instruction could not
dominate CommonDest because CommonDest has phi nodes in it. That simply
isn't true; e.g., CommonDest could have an edge back to itself.
llvm-svn: 225552
An unreachable default destination can be exploited by other optimizations, and
SDag lowering is now prepared to handle them efficiently.
For example, branches to the unreachable destination will be optimized away,
such as in the case of range checks for switch lookup tables.
On 64-bit Linux, this reduces the size of a clang bootstrap by 80 kB (and
Chromium by 30 kB).

if (r != default_value)
...
Is optimized to:
cond = idx < tablesize;

Jump threading will then eliminate the second if(cond).

When converting a switch to a lookup table we might have to generate a bitmaks
to encode and check for holes in the original switch statement.
The type of this mask depends on the number of switch statements, which can
result in illegal types for pretty much all architectures.
To avoid unnecessary type legalization and help FastISel this commit increases
the size of the bitmask to next power-of-2 value when necessary.
This fixes rdar://problem/18984639.

This is a simple optimization for switch table lookup:
It computes the output value directly with an (optional) mul and add if there is a linear mapping between index and output.
Example:
int f1(int x) {
switch (x) {
case 0: return 10;
case 1: return 11;
case 2: return 12;
case 3: return 13;
}
return 0;
}
generates:
define i32 @f1(i32 %x) #0 {
entry:
%0 = icmp ult i32 %x, 4
br i1 %0, label %switch.lookup, label %return
switch.lookup:
%switch.offset = add i32 %x, 10
ret i32 %switch.offset
return:

This is the same optimization of r219233 with modifications to support PHIs with multiple incoming edges from the same block
and a test to check that this condition is handled.
llvm-svn: 219656
This optimization tries to convert switch instructions that are used to select a value with only 2 unique cases + default block
to a select or a couple of selects (depending if the default block is reachable or not).
The typical case this optimization wants to be able to optimize is this one:
Example:
switch (a) {
case 10: %0 = icmp eq i32 %a, 10
return 10; %1 = select i1 %0, i32 10, i32 4
case 20: ----> %2 = icmp eq i32 %a, 20
return 2; %3 = select i1 %2, i32 2, i32 %1
default:
return 4;
}
It also sets the base for further optimizations that are planned and being reviewed.

We would previously put dllimport variables in switch lookup tables, which
doesn't work because the address cannot be used in a constant initializer.

This allows us to generate table lookups for code such as:
unsigned test(unsigned x) {

case 101: return 1;
case 103: return 2;
case 105: return 3;
case 107: return 4;
case 109: return 5;
case 110: return 6;
default: return f(x);
}
}
Since cases 102, 104, etc. are not constants, the lookup table has holes
in those positions. We therefore guard the table lookup with a bitmask check.

There has been an old FIXME to find the right cut-off for when it's worth
analyzing and potentially transforming a switch to a lookup table.
The switches always have two or more cases. I could not measure any speed-up
by transforming a switch with two cases. A switch with three cases gets a nice
speed-up, and I couldn't measure any compile-time regression, so I think this
is the right threshold.
In a Clang self-host, this causes 480 new switches to be transformed,
and reduces the final binary size with 8 KB.
llvm-svn: 199294
case when the lookup table doesn't have any holes.
This means we can build a lookup table for switches like this:
switch (x) {
case 0: return 1;
case 1: return 2;
case 2: return 3;
case 3: return 4;
default: exit(1);
}
The default case doesn't yield a constant result here, but that doesn't matter,
since a default result is only necessary for filling holes in the lookup table,
and this table doesn't have any holes.
This makes us transform 505 more switches in a clang bootstrap, and shaves 164 KB
off the resulting clang binary.
