and positive: positive, because it could be directly computed to be positive;
negative, because the nsw flags means it is either negative or undefined (the
multiplication always overflowed).

The loop tree's inclusive block lists are painful and expensive to
update. (I have no idea why they're inclusive). The design was
supposed to handle this case but the implementation missed it and my
unit tests weren't thorough enough.
Fixes PR11335: loop unroll update.

whether to continue looking.
Use this inside memdep to do an analysis that basicaa won't do. This lets us
solve another devirtualization case, fixing PR8908!

The expression icmp eq (select (icmp eq x, 0), 1, x), 0 folds to false.
Spotted by my super-optimizer in 186.crafty and 450.soplex. We really
need a proper infrastructure for handling generalizations of this kind
of thing (which occur a lot), however this case is so simple that I decided
to go ahead and implement it directly.

been a cast to OverflowingBinaryOperator (which also works for constants).
While there, correct a few other dubious looking uses of BinaryOperator.
Thanks to Chad Rosier for the testcase. Original commit message:
My super-optimizer noticed that we weren't folding this expression to
true: (x *nsw x) sgt 0, where x = (y | 1). This occurs in 464.h264ref.

Enhance SCEV's brute force loop analysis to handle multiple PHI nodes in the
loop header when computing the trip count.
With this, we now constant evaluate:
struct ListNode { const struct ListNode *next; int i; };
static const struct ListNode node1 = {0, 1};
static const struct ListNode node2 = {&node1, 2};
static const struct ListNode node3 = {&node2, 3};
int test() {
int sum = 0;
for (const struct ListNode *n = &node3; n != 0; n = n->next)
sum += n->i;
return sum;
}

classifying many edges as exiting which were in fact not. These mainly
formed edges into sub-loops. It was also not correctly classifying all
returning edges out of loops as leaving the loop. With this match most
of the loop heuristics are more rational.
Several serious regressions on loop-intesive benchmarks like perlbench's
loop tests when built with -enable-block-placement are fixed by these
updated heuristics. Unfortunately they in turn uncover some other
regressions. There are still several improvemenst that should be made to
loop heuristics including trip-count, and early back-edge management.

introduce no-return or unreachable heuristics.
The return heuristics from the Ball and Larus paper don't work well in
practice as they pessimize early return paths. The only good hitrate
return heuristics are those for:
- NULL return
- Constant return
- negative integer return
Only the last of these three can possibly require significant code for
the returning block, and even the last is fairly rare and usually also
a constant. As a consequence, even for the cold return paths, there is
little code on that return path, and so little code density to be gained
by sinking it. The places where sinking these blocks is valuable (inner
loops) will already be weighted appropriately as the edge is a loop-exit
branch.
All of this aside, early returns are nearly as common as all three of
these return categories, and should actually be predicted as taken!
Rather than muddy the waters of the static predictions, just remain
silent on returns and let the CFG itself dictate any layout or other
issues.
However, the return heuristic was flagging one very important case:
unreachable. Unfortunately it still gave a 1/4 chance of the
branch-to-unreachable occuring. It also didn't do a rigorous job of
finding those blocks which post-dominate an unreachable block.
This patch builds a more powerful analysis that should flag all branches
to blocks known to then reach unreachable. It also has better worst-case
runtime complexity by not looping through successors for each block. The
previous code would perform an N^2 walk in the event of a single entry
block branching to N successors with a switch where each successor falls
through to the next and they finally fall through to a return.
Test case added for noreturn heuristics. Also doxygen comments improved
along the way.

a single class. Previously it was split between two classes, one
internal and one external. The concern seemed to center around exposing
the weights used, but those can remain confined to the implementation
file.
Having a single class to maintain the state and analyses in use will
also simplify several of the enhancements I want to make to our static
heuristics.

to bring it under direct test instead of merely indirectly testing it in
the BlockFrequencyInfo pass.
The next step is to start adding tests for the various heuristics
employed, and to start fixing those heuristics once they're under test.

able to constant fold load instructions where the argument is a constant.
Second, we should be able to watch multiple PHI nodes through the loop; this
patch only supports PHIs in loop headers, more can be done here.
With this patch, we now constant evaluate:
static const int arr[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
int test() {
int sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 5; ++i) sum += arr[i];
return sum;

the common case of 2 successors for a conditional branch.
Add a test case for switch metadata showing up in the BlockFrequencyInfo pass.

encoding of probabilities. In the absense of metadata, it continues to
fall back on static heuristics.
This allows __builtin_expect, after lowering through llvm.expect
a branch instruction's metadata, to actually enter the branch
probability model. This is one component of resolving PR2577.
