One potential way to make InstCombine (very slightly?) faster is to recycle instructions
when possible instead of creating new ones. It's not explicitly stated AFAIK, but we don't
consider this an "InstSimplify". We could, however, make a new layer to house transforms
like this if that makes InstCombine more manageable (just throwing out an idea; not sure
how much opportunity is actually here).

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%
MultiSource/Benchmarks/Olden/perimeter/perimeter -10.43%
and a couple of smaller changes. For perimeter it also results 2.6%
a smaller binary.

This is a short term solution to the problem that many passes currently fail
to update the assumption cache. In the long term the verifier should not
be controllable with a flag. We should either fix all passes to correctly
update the assumption cache and enable the verifier unconditionally or
somehow arrange for the assumption list to be updated automatically by passes.

Summary: Along with https://reviews.llvm.org/D27804, debug locations need to be merged when hoisting store instructions as well. Not sure if just dropping debug locations would make more sense for this case, but as the branch instruction will have at least different discriminator with the hoisted store instruction, I think there will be no difference in practice.

Conservatively disable sinking and merging inline-asm instructions as doing so
can potentially create arguments that cannot satisfy the inline-asm constraints.
For example, SimplifyCFG used to do the following transformation:
(before)
if.then:
%0 = call i32 asm "rorl $2, $0", "=&r,0,n"(i32 %r6, i32 8)
br label %if.end
if.else:
%1 = call i32 asm "rorl $2, $0", "=&r,0,n"(i32 %r6, i32 6)
br label %if.end
(after)
%.sink = select i1 %tobool, i32 6, i32 8
%0 = call i32 asm "rorl $2, $0", "=&r,0,n"(i32 %r6, i32 %.sink)
This would result in a crash in the backend since only immediate integer operands
are permitted for constraint "n".

This patch implements PR31013 by introducing a

DIExpression.
Currently, DIGlobalVariables holds a DIExpression. This is not the
best way to model this:
(1) The DIGlobalVariable should describe the source level variable,
not how to get to its location.
(2) It makes it unsafe/hard to update the expressions when we call
replaceExpression on the DIGLobalVariable.
(3) It makes it impossible to represent a global variable that is in
more than one location (e.g., a variable with multiple
DW_OP_LLVM_fragment-s). We also moved away from attaching the
DIExpression to DILocalVariable for the same reasons.
This reapplies r289902 with additional testcase upgrades and a change
to the Bitcode record for DIGlobalVariable, that makes upgrading the
old format unambiguous also for variables without DIExpressions.

I forgot to implement a Bitcode upgrade for the case where a DIGlobalVariable

This way we only need one Bitcode upgrade for both changes (with a

There was an efficiency problem with how we processed @llvm.assume in
ValueTracking (and other places). The AssumptionCache tracked all of the
assumptions in a given function. In order to find assumptions relevant to
computing known bits, etc. we searched every assumption in the function. For
ValueTracking, that means that we did O(#assumes * #values) work in InstCombine
and other passes (with a constant factor that can be quite large because we'd
repeat this search at every level of recursion of the analysis).
Several of us discussed this situation at the last developers' meeting, and
this implements the discussed solution: Make the values that an assume might
affect operands of the assume itself. To avoid exposing this detail to
frontends and passes that need not worry about it, I've used the new
operand-bundle feature to add these extra call "operands" in a way that does
not affect the intrinsic's signature. I think this solution is relatively
clean. InstCombine adds these extra operands based on what ValueTracking, LVI,
etc. will need and then those passes need only search the users of the values
under consideration. This should fix the computational-complexity problem.
At this point, no passes depend on the AssumptionCache, and so I'll remove
that as a follow-up change.

Summary:
This change adds some verification in the IR verifier around struct path
TBAA metadata.
Other than some basic sanity checks (e.g. we get constant integers where
we expect constant integers), this checks:
- That by the time an struct access tuple `(base-type, offset)` is
"reduced" to a scalar base type, the offset is `0`. For instance, in
C++ you can't start from, say `("struct-a", 16)`, and end up with
`("int", 4)` -- by the time the base type is `"int"`, the offset
better be zero. In particular, a variant of this invariant is needed
for `llvm::getMostGenericTBAA` to be correct.
- That there are no cycles in a struct path.
- That struct type nodes have their offsets listed in an ascending
order.
- That when generating the struct access path, you eventually reach the
access type listed in the tbaa tag node.

Summary:
Constant bundle operands may need to retain their constant-ness for

SimplifyCFG already does this for things like @llvm.frameaddress and
@llvm.stackmap, so I suppose adding one more case is not a big deal.
It is possible to add a mechanism to denote bundle operands that need to
remain constants, but that's probably too complicated for the time
being.

This should *actually* fix PR30244. This cranks up the workaround for PR30188 so that we never sink loads or stores of allocas.
The idea is that these should be removed by SROA/Mem2Reg, and any movement of them may well confuse SROA or just cause unwanted code churn. It's not ideal that the midend should be crippled like this, but that unwanted churn can really cause significant regressions in important workloads (tsan).
llvm-svn: 281162
Exposed by PR30244, we will split a block currently if we think we can sink at least one instruction. However this isn't right - the reason we split predecessors is so that we can sink instructions that otherwise couldn't be sunk because it isn't safe to do so - stores, for example.
So, change the heuristic to only split if it thinks it can sink at least one non-speculatable instruction.
Should fix PR30244.

We can't create metadata-valued PHIs; don't try to do so when sinking.
I created a test case for this using the @llvm.type.test intrinsic, because it
takes a metadata parameter and does not have severe side effects (thus
SimplifyCFG is willing to otherwise sink it).
Previously, running the test case would crash with:
Invalid use of metadata!
%.sink = select i1 %flag, metadata <...>, metadata <0x4e45dc0>
LLVM ERROR: Broken function found, compilation aborted!
llvm-svn: 280866
I should have realised this the first time around, but if we're avoiding sinking stores where the operands come from allocas so they don't create selects, we also have to do the same for loads because SROA will be just as defective looking at loads of selected addresses as stores.
Fixes PR30188 (again).
llvm-svn: 280792
PR30292 showed a case where our PHI checking wasn't correct. We were checking that all values were used by the same PHI before deciding to sink, but we weren't checking that the incoming values for that PHI were what we expected. As a result, we had to bail out after block splitting which caused us to never reach a steady state in SimplifyCFG.
Fixes PR30292.
llvm-svn: 280790
This test code previously caused a failure in the module verifier,
because SimplifyCFG created this invalid instruction, which tries to
take the address of inline asm:
%.sink = select i1 %1, i64 ()* asm "mov $0, #1", "=r", i64 ()* asm %"mov $0, #2", "=r"
This has been fixed recently, presumably by James Molloy's patches that
re-wrote and changed parts of SimplifyCFG, so this patch just adds a
regression test for it.

This was a real restriction in the original version of SinkIfThenCodeToEnd. Now it's been rewritten, the restriction can be lifted.
As part of this, we handle a very common and useful case where one of the incoming branches is actually conditional. Consider:
if (a)
x(1);
else if (b)
x(2);
This produces the following CFG:
[if]
/ \
[x(1)] [if]
| | \
| | \
| [x(2)] |
\ | /
[ end ]
[end] has two unconditional predecessor arcs and one conditional. The conditional refers to the implicit empty 'else' arc. This same pattern can also be caused by an empty default block in a switch.
We can't sink the call to x() down to end because no call to x() happens on the third incoming arc (assume that x() has sideeffects for the sake of argument; if something is safe to speculate we could indeed sink nevertheless but this cannot happen in the general case and causes many extra selects).
We are now able to detect this case and split off the unconditional arcs to a common successor:
[if]
/ \
[x(1)] [if]
| | \
| | \
| [x(2)] |
\ / |
[sink.split] |
\ /
[ end ]
Now we can sink the call to x() into %sink.split. This can cause significant code simplification in many testcases.
llvm-svn: 280364
r279460 rewrote this function to be able to handle more than two incoming edges and took pains to ensure this didn't regress anything.
This time we change the logic for determining if an instruction should be sunk. Previously we used a single pass greedy algorithm - sink instructions until one requires more than one PHI node or we run out of instructions to sink.
This had the problem that sinking instructions that had non-identical but trivially the same operands needed extra logic so we sunk them aggressively. For example:
%a = load i32* %b %d = load i32* %b
%c = gep i32* %a, i32 0 %e = gep i32* %d, i32 1
Sinking %c and %e would naively require two PHI merges as %a != %d. But the loads are obviously equivalent (and maybe can't be hoisted because there is no common predecessor).
This is why we implemented the fairly complex function areValuesTriviallySame(), to look through trivial differences like this. However it's just not clever enough.
Instead, throw areValuesTriviallySame away, use pointer equality to check equivalence of operands and switch to a two-stage algorithm.
In the "scan" stage, we look at every sinkable instruction in isolation from end of block to front. If it's sinkable, we keep track of all operands that required PHI merging.
In the "sink" stage, we iteratively sink the last non-terminator in the source blocks. But when calculating how many PHIs are actually required to be inserted (to work out if we should stop or not) we remove any values that have already been sunk from the set of PHI-merges required, which allows us to be more aggressive.
This turns an algorithm with potentially recursive lookahead (looking through GEPs, casts, loads and any other instruction potentially not CSE'd) to two linear scans.
llvm-svn: 280351
We check that a sinking candidate is used by only one PHI node during our legality checks. However for instructions that are used by other sinking candidates our heuristic is less conservative. This can result in a candidate actually being illegal when we come to sink it because of how we sunk a predecessor. Do the used-by-only-one-PHI checks again during sinking to ensure we don't crash.
llvm-svn: 280228
