We're already using TTI in SimplifyCFG, so remove the hard-baked "cheapness"
heuristic and use TTI directly. Generally NFC intended, but we're using a slightly
different heuristic now so there is a slight test churn.
Test changes:
* combine-comparisons-by-cse.ll: Removed unneeded branch check.
* 2014-08-04-muls-it.ll: Test now doesn't branch but emits muleq.
* coalesce-subregs.ll: Superfluous block check.
* 2008-01-02-hoist-fp-add.ll: fadd is safe to speculate. Change to udiv.
* PhiBlockMerge.ll: Superfluous CFG checking code. Main checks still present.
* select-gep.ll: A variable GEP is not expensive, just TCC_Basic, according to the TTI.

An unreachable default destination can be exploited by other optimizations and
allows for more efficient lowering. Both the SDag switch lowering and
LowerSwitch can exploit unreachable defaults.
Also make TurnSwitchRangeICmp handle switches with unreachable default.
This is kind of separate change, but it cannot be tested without the change
above, and I don't want to land the change above without this since that would
regress other tests.

This commit moves `MDLocation`, finishing off PR21433. There's an
accompanying clang commit for frontend testcases. I'll attach the
testcase upgrade script I used to PR21433 to help out-of-tree
frontends/backends.
This changes the schema for `DebugLoc` and `DILocation` from:
!{i32 3, i32 7, !7, !8}
to:
!MDLocation(line: 3, column: 7, scope: !7, inlinedAt: !8)
Note that empty fields (line/column: 0 and inlinedAt: null) don't get
printed by the assembly writer.

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.

- Fix the case where more than 1 common instructions derived from the same
operand cannot be sunk. When a pair of value has more than 1 derived values
in both branches, only 1 derived value could be sunk.
- Replace BB1 -> (BB2, PN) map with joint value map, i.e.
map of (BB1, BB2) -> PN, which is more accurate to track common ops.

Now that `Metadata` is typeless, reflect that in the assembly. These
are the matching assembly changes for the metadata/value split in
r223802.
- Only use the `metadata` type when referencing metadata from a call
intrinsic -- i.e., only when it's used as a `Value`.
- Stop pretending that `ValueAsMetadata` is wrapped in an `MDNode`
when referencing it from call intrinsics.
So, assembly like this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 %v}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 7}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !1, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{metadata !3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = metadata !{metadata !2}
!1 = metadata !{i32* @global}
!2 = metadata !{metadata !3}
!3 = metadata !{}
turns into this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 %v, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 7, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32* @global, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{!3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = !{!2}
!1 = !{i32* @global}
!2 = !{!3}
!3 = !{}
I wrote an upgrade script that handled almost all of the tests in llvm

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

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:

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

%ptr.2 = select i1 %cond, i8* null, i8* %ptr
store i8 2, i8* %ptr.2, align 8
ret void

because the simplifycfg transformation into selects would happen to happen
before the simplifycfg transformation that removes unreachable control flow
(We have 'unreachable control flow' due to the store to null which is undefined
behavior).
The existing transformation that removes unreachable control flow in simplifycfg
is:
/// If BB has an incoming value that will always trigger undefined behavior
/// (eg. null pointer dereference), remove the branch leading here.

Now we generate:

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.

argument of the llvm.dbg.declare/llvm.dbg.value intrinsics.
Previously, DIVariable was a variable-length field that has an optional
reference to a Metadata array consisting of a variable number of
complex address expressions. In the case of OpPiece expressions this is
wasting a lot of storage in IR, because when an aggregate type is, e.g.,
SROA'd into all of its n individual members, the IR will contain n copies
of the DIVariable, all alike, only differing in the complex address
reference at the end.
By making the complex address into an extra argument of the
dbg.value/dbg.declare intrinsics, all of the pieces can reference the
same variable and the complex address expressions can be uniqued across
the CU, too.
Down the road, this will allow us to move other flags, such as
"indirection" out of the DIVariable, too.
The new intrinsics look like this:
declare void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata %storage, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
declare void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata %storage, i64 %offset, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
This patch adds a new LLVM-local tag to DIExpressions, so we can detect
and pretty-print DIExpression metadata nodes.
What this patch doesn't do:
This patch does not touch the "Indirect" field in DIVariable; but moving

llvm-svn: 218778
Summary:
This patch adds a threshold that controls the number of bonus instructions
allowed for folding branches with common destination. The original code allows
at most one bonus instruction. With this patch, users can customize the
threshold to allow multiple bonus instructions. The default threshold is still
1, so that the code behaves the same as before when users do not specify this
threshold.
The motivation of this change is that tuning this threshold significantly (up
to 25%) improves the performance of some CUDA programs in our internal code
base. In general, branch instructions are very expensive for GPU programs.
Therefore, it is sometimes worth trading more arithmetic computation for a more
straightened control flow. Here's a reduced example:
__global__ void foo(int a, int b, int c, int d, int e, int n,
const int *input, int *output) {
int sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
sum += (((i ^ a) > b) && (((i | c ) ^ d) > e)) ? 0 : input[i];
*output = sum;
}
The select statement in the loop body translates to two branch instructions "if
((i ^ a) > b)" and "if (((i | c) ^ d) > e)" which share a common destination.
With the default threshold, SimplifyCFG is unable to fold them, because
computing the condition of the second branch "(i | c) ^ d > e" requires two
bonus instructions. With the threshold increased, SimplifyCFG can fold the two
branches so that the loop body contains only one branch, making the code
conceptually look like:
sum += (((i ^ a) > b) & (((i | c ) ^ d) > e)) ? 0 : input[i];
Increasing the threshold significantly improves the performance of this
particular example. In the configuration where both conditions are guaranteed
to be true, increasing the threshold from 1 to 2 improves the performance by
18.24%. Even in the configuration where the first condition is false and the
second condition is true, which favors shortcuts, increasing the threshold from
1 to 2 still improves the performance by 4.35%.
We are still looking for a good threshold and maybe a better cost model than
just counting the number of bonus instructions. However, according to the above
numbers, we think it is at least worth adding a threshold to enable more
experiments and tuning. Let me know what you think. Thanks!
Test Plan: Added one test case to check the threshold is in effect

The lifetime intrinsics need some work in order to make it clear which

For now dropping this optimization avoids a miscompilation.
Patch by Björn Steinbrink.
llvm-svn: 214336
This is the first commit in a series that add an @llvm.assume intrinsic which
can be used to provide the optimizer with a condition it may assume to be true
(when the control flow would hit the intrinsic call). Some basic properties are added here:
- llvm.invariant(true) is dead.
- llvm.invariant(false) is unreachable (this directly corresponds to the
documented behavior of MSVC's __assume(0)), so is llvm.invariant(undef).
The intrinsic is tagged as writing arbitrarily, in order to maintain control
dependencies. BasicAA has been updated, however, to return NoModRef for any
particular location-based query so that we don't unnecessarily block code
motion.

We use gep to access the global array "switch.table", and the table index
should be treated as unsigned. When the highest bit is 1, this commit
zero-extends the index to an integer type with larger size.
For a switch on i2, we used to generate:
%switch.tableidx = sub i2 %0, -2
getelementptr inbounds [4 x i64]* @switch.table, i32 0, i2 %switch.tableidx
It is incorrect when %switch.tableidx is 2 or 3. The fix is to generate
%switch.tableidx = sub i2 %0, -2
%switch.tableidx.zext = zext i2 %switch.tableidx to i3
getelementptr inbounds [4 x i64]* @switch.table, i32 0, i3 %switch.tableidx.zext

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.

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.
llvm-svn: 199025

One optimization simplify-cfg performs is the converting of switches to
lookup tables if the switch has > 4 cases. This is done by:
1. Finding the max/min case value and calculating the switch case range.
2. Create a lookup table basic block.
3. Perform a check in the switch's BB to see if the input value is in
the switch's case range. If the input value satisfies said predicate
branch to the lookup table BB, otherwise branch to the switch's default
destination BB using the default value as the result.
The conditional check consists of subtracting the min case value of the
table from any input iN value and then ensuring that said value is
unsigned less than the size of the lookup table represented as an iN
value.
If the lookup table is a covered lookup table, the size of the table will be N
which is 0 as an iN value. Thus the comparison will be an `icmp ult` of an iN
value against 0 which is always false yielding the incorrect result.
This patch fixes this problem by recognizing if we have a covered lookup table
and if we do, unconditionally jumps to the lookup table BB since the covering
property of the lookup table implies no input values could not be handled by
said BB.

to be speculated. That is not true, the phi's are semantically in the edges, so
if the A->B->C path is taken, any code needed for A->C is not executed and we
have to consider it too when deciding to speculate B.

PR16069 is an interesting case where an incoming value to a PHI is a
trap value while also being a 'ConstantExpr'.
We do not consider this case when performing the 'HoistThenElseCodeToIf'
optimization.
Instead, make our modifications more conservative if we detect that we
cannot transform the PHI to a select.

This resurrects r179957, but adds code that makes sure we don't touch
atomic/volatile stores:
This transformation will transform a conditional store with a preceeding
uncondtional store to the same location:
a[i] =
may-alias with a[i] load
if (cond)
a[i] = Y
into an unconditional store.
a[i] = X
may-alias with a[i] load
tmp = cond ? Y : X;
a[i] = tmp
We assume that on average the cost of a mispredicted branch is going to be
higher than the cost of a second store to the same location, and that the
secondary benefits of creating a bigger basic block for other optimizations to
work on outway the potential case where the branch would be correctly predicted
and the cost of the executing the second store would be noticably reflected in
performance.
hmmer's execution time improves by 30% on an imac12,2 on ref data sets. With
this change we are on par with gcc's performance (gcc also performs this
transformation). There was a 1.2 % performance improvement on a ARM swift chip.
Other tests in the test-suite+external seem to be mostly uninfluenced in my
experiments:
This optimization was triggered on 41 tests such that the executable was
different before/after the patch. Only 1 out of the 40 tests (dealII) was
reproducable below 100% (by about .4%). Given that hmmer benefits so much I
believe this to be a fair trade off.
llvm-svn: 180731
There is the temptation to make this tranform dependent on target information as
it is not going to be beneficial on all (sub)targets. Therefore, we should
probably do this in MI Early-Ifconversion.

If a switch instruction has a case for every possible value of its type,
with the same successor, SimplifyCFG would replace it with an icmp ult,
but the computation of the bound overflows in that case, which inverts
the test.
Patch by Jed Davis!
llvm-svn: 179587
Fixes rdar:13349374.
Volatile loads and stores need to be preserved even if the language
standard says they are undefined. "volatile" in this context means "get
out of the way compiler, let my platform handle it".
Additionally, this is the only way I know of with llvm to write to the
first page (when hardware allows) without dropping to assembly.
llvm-svn: 176599
Listing all of the attributes for the callee of a call/invoke instruction is way
too much and makes the IR unreadable. Use references to attributes instead.
llvm-svn: 175877
loops over instructions in the basic block or the use-def list of the
value, neither of which are really efficient when repeatedly querying
about values in the same basic block.
What's more, we already know that the CondBB is small, and so we can do
a much more efficient test by counting the uses in CondBB, and seeing if
those account for all of the uses.
Finally, we shouldn't blanket fail on any such instruction, instead we
should conservatively assume that those instructions are part of the
cost.
Note that this actually fixes a bug in the pass because
isUsedInBasicBlock has a really terrible bug in it. I'll fix that in my
next commit, but the fix for it would make this code suddenly take the
compile time hit I thought it already was taking, so I wanted to go
ahead and migrate this code to a faster & better pattern.
The bug in isUsedInBasicBlock was also causing other tests to test the
wrong thing entirely: for example we weren't actually disabling
speculation for floating point operations as intended (and tested), but
the test passed because we failed to speculate them due to the
isUsedInBasicBlock failure.

Original commit message:
Plug TTI into the speculation logic, giving it a real cost interface
that can be specialized by targets.
The goal here is not to be more aggressive, but to just be more accurate
with very obvious cases. There are instructions which are known to be
truly free and which were not being modeled as such in this code -- see
the regression test which is distilled from an inner loop of zlib.
Everywhere the TTI cost model is insufficiently conservative I've added
explicit checks with FIXME comments to go add proper modelling of these
cost factors.
If this causes regressions, the likely solution is to make TTI even more
conservative in its cost estimates, but test cases will help here.

a cost fuction that seems both a bit ad-hoc and also poorly suited to
evaluating constant expressions.
Notably, it is missing any support for trivial expressions such as
'inttoptr'. I could fix this routine, but it isn't clear to me all of
the constraints its other users are operating under.
The core protection that seems relevant here is avoiding the formation
of a select instruction wich a further chain of select operations in
a constant expression operand. Just explicitly encode that constraint.
Also, update the comments and organization here to make it clear where
this needs to go -- this should be driven off of real cost measurements
which take into account the number of constants expressions and the
depth of the constant expression tree.
llvm-svn: 173340
By propagating the value for the switch condition, LLVM can now build
lookup tables for code such as:
switch (x) {
case 1: return 5;
case 2: return 42;
case 3: case 4: case 5:
return x - 123;
default:
return 123;
}
Given that x is known for each case, "x - 123" becomes a constant for
cases 3, 4, and 5.
llvm-svn: 167115
When the switch-to-lookup tables transform landed in SimplifyCFG, it
was pointed out that this could be inappropriate for some targets.
Since there was no way at the time for the pass to know anything about
the target, an awkward reverse-transform was added in CodeGenPrepare
that turned lookup tables back into switches for some targets.
This patch uses the new TargetTransformInfo to determine if a
switch should be transformed, and removes
CodeGenPrepare::ConvertLoadToSwitch.
llvm-svn: 167011
The isValueEqualityComparison() guard at the top of SimplifySwitch()
only applies to some of the possible transformations.
The newer transformations work just fine on large switches, and the
check on predecessor count is nonsensical.
llvm-svn: 166710
We conservatively only check the first use to avoid walking long use chains.
This catches the common case of having both a load and a store to a pointer
supplied by a PHI node.

If the width is very large it gets truncated from uint64_t to uint32_t when
passed to TD->fitsInLegalInteger. The truncated value can fit in a register.
This manifested in massive memory usage or crashes (PR13946).

tables in bitmaps when they fit in a target-legal register.
This saves some space, and it also allows for building tables that would
otherwise be deemed too sparse.
One interesting case that this hits is example 7 from
http://blog.regehr.org/archives/320. We currently generate good code
for this when lowering the switch to the selection DAG: we build a
bitmask to decide whether to jump to one block or the other. My patch
will result in the same bitmask, but it removes the need for the jump,
as the return value can just be retrieved from the mask.
llvm-svn: 164684
We already have HoistThenElseCodeToIf, this patch implements
SinkThenElseCodeToEnd. When END block has only two predecessors and each
predecessor terminates with unconditional branches, we compare instructions in
IF and ELSE blocks backwards and check whether we can sink the common
instructions down.

two variables where the first variable is returned and the second
ignored.

destination.
Updated previous implementation to fix a case not covered:
// PBI: br i1 %x, TrueDest, BB
// BI: br i1 %y, TrueDest, FalseDest
The other case was handled correctly.
// PBI: br i1 %x, BB, FalseDest
// BI: br i1 %y, TrueDest, FalseDest
Also tried to use 64-bit arithmetic instead of APInt with scale to simplify the
computation. Let me know if you have other opinions about this.

a pair of switch/branch where both depend on the value of the same variable and
the default case of the first switch/branch goes to the second switch/branch.
Code clean up and fixed a few issues:
1> handling the case where some cases of the 2nd switch are invalidated
2> correctly calculate the weight for the 2nd switch when it is a conditional eq
Testing case is modified from Alastair's original patch.
llvm-svn: 163635
The lookup tables did not get built in a deterministic order.
This makes them get built in the order that the corresponding phi nodes
were found.
llvm-svn: 163305
This adds a transformation to SimplifyCFG that attemps to turn switch
instructions into loads from lookup tables. It works on switches that
are only used to initialize one or more phi nodes in a common successor
basic block, for example:
int f(int x) {
switch (x) {
case 0: return 5;
case 1: return 4;
case 2: return -2;
case 5: return 7;
case 6: return 9;
default: return 42;
}
This speeds up the code by removing the hard-to-predict jump, and
reduces code size by removing the code for the jump targets.
llvm-svn: 163302
another mechanical change accomplished though the power of terrible Perl
scripts.
I have manually switched some "s to 's to make escaping simpler.
While I started this to fix tests that aren't run in all configurations,
the massive number of tests is due to a really frustrating fragility of
our testing infrastructure: things like 'grep -v', 'not grep', and
'expected failures' can mask broken tests all too easily.
Essentially, I'm deeply disturbed that I can change the testsuite so
radically without causing any change in results for most platforms. =/
llvm-svn: 159547
This was done through the aid of a terrible Perl creation. I will not
paste any of the horrors here. Suffice to say, it require multiple
staged rounds of replacements, state carried between, and a few
nested-construct-parsing hacks that I'm not proud of. It happens, by
luck, to be able to deal with all the TCL-quoting patterns in evidence
in the LLVM test suite.
If anyone is maintaining large out-of-tree test trees, feel free to poke
me and I'll send you the steps I used to convert things, as well as
answer any painful questions etc. IRC works best for this type of thing
I find.
Once converted, switch the LLVM lit config to use ShTests the same as
Clang. In addition to being able to delete large amounts of Python code
from 'lit', this will also simplify the entire test suite and some of
lit's architecture.
Finally, the test suite runs 33% faster on Linux now. ;]

code can incorrectly move the load across a store. This never

llvm-svn: 147623
In theory this could be extended to other instructions, eg. division by zero, but it's likely that it will "miscompile" some code because people depend on div by zero not trapping. NULL pointer dereference usually leads to a crash so we should be on the safe side.

In cases such as the attached test, where the case value for a switch
destination is used in a phi node that follows the destination, it
might be better to replace that value with the condition value of the
switch, so that more blocks can be folded away with
TryToSimplifyUncondBranchFromEmptyBlock because there are less
conflicts in the phi node.
llvm-svn: 133344
then we don't want to set the destination in the indirect branch to the
destination. This is because the indirect branch needs its destinations to have
had their block addresses taken. This isn't so of the new critical edge that's
split during this process. If it turns out that the destination block has only
one predecessor, and that being a BB with an indirect branch, then it won't be
marked as 'used' and may be removed.

I also changed -simplifycfg, -jump-threading and -codegenprepare to use this to produce slightly better code without any extra cleanup passes (AFAICT this was the only place in -simplifycfg where now-dead conditions of replaced terminators weren't being cleaned up).

unfoldable references to a PHI node in the block being folded, and disable
the transformation in that case. The correct transformation of such PHI
nodes depends on whether BB dominates Succ, and dominance is expensive

uses are live, but that's also essentially a dominance calculation.
Another alternative is to use reg2mem, but it probably isn't a good idea to
use that in simplifycfg.)
