The Loop Vectorizer generates redundant operations when manipulating masks:
AND with true, OR with false, compare equal to true. Instead of relying on
a subsequent pass to clean them up, this patch avoids generating them.
Use null (no-mask) to represent all-one full masks, instead of a constant
all-one vector, following the convention of masked gathers and scatters.
Preparing for a follow-up VPlan patch in which these mask manipulating
operations are modeled using recipes.

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.

Generate a single test to decide if there are enough iterations to jump to the
vectorized loop, or else go to the scalar remainder loop. This test compares the
Scalar Trip Count: if STC < VF * UF go to the scalar loop. If
requiresScalarEpilogue() holds, at-least one iteration must remain scalar; the
rest can be used to form vector iterations. So in this case the test checks
instead if (STC - 1) < VF * UF by comparing STC <= VF * UF, and going to the
scalar loop if so. Otherwise the vector loop is entered for at-least one vector
iteration.
This test covers the case where incrementing the backedge-taken count will
overflow leading to an incorrect trip count of zero. In this (rare) case we will
also avoid the vector loop and jump to the scalar loop.
This patch simplifies the existing tests and effectively removes the basic-block
originally named "min.iters.checked", leaving the single test in block
"vector.ph".

It may be detrimental to vectorize loops with very small trip count, as various
costs of the vectorized loop body as well as enclosing overheads including
runtime tests and scalar iterations may outweigh the gains of vectorizing. The
current cost model measures the cost of the vectorized loop body only, expecting
it will amortize other costs, and loops with known or expected very small trip
counts are not vectorized at all. This patch allows loops with very small trip
counts to be vectorized, but under OptForSize constraints, which ensure the cost
of the loop body is dominant, having no runtime guards nor scalar iterations.

This canonicalization was suggested in D33172 as a way to make InstCombine behavior more uniform.
We have this transform for icmp+br, so unless there's some reason that icmp+select should be
treated differently, we should do the same thing here.
The benefit comes from increasing the chances of creating identical instructions. This is shown in
the tests in logical-select.ll (PR32791). InstCombine doesn't fold those directly, but EarlyCSE
can simplify the identical cmps, and then InstCombine can fold the selects together.
The possible regression for the tests in select.ll raises questions about poison/undef:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-May/113261.html
...but that transform is just as likely to be triggered by this canonicalization as it is to be
missed, so we're just pointing out a commutation deficiency in the pattern matching:

Summary:
Existing heuristic uses the ratio between the function entry
frequency and the loop invocation frequency to find cold loops. However,
even if the loop executes frequently, if it has a small trip count per
each invocation, vectorization is not beneficial. On the other hand,
even if the loop invocation frequency is much smaller than the function
invocation frequency, if the trip count is high it is still beneficial
to vectorize the loop.
This patch uses estimated trip count computed from the profile metadata
as a primary metric to determine coldness of the loop. If the estimated
trip count cannot be computed, it falls back to the original heuristics.

If we're shrinking a binary operation, it may be the case that the new
operations wraps where the old didn't. If this happens, the behavior
should be well-defined. So, we can't always carry wrapping flags with us
when we shrink operations.
If we do, we get incorrect optimizations in cases like:
void foo(const unsigned char *from, unsigned char *to, int n) {
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
to[i] = from[i] - 128;
}
which gets optimized to:
void foo(const unsigned char *from, unsigned char *to, int n) {
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
to[i] = from[i] | 128;
}
Because:
- InstCombine turned `sub i32 %from.i, 128` into
`add nuw nsw i32 %from.i, 128`.
- LoopVectorize vectorized the add to be `add nuw nsw <16 x i8>` with a
vector full of `i8 128`s
- InstCombine took advantage of the fact that the newly-shrunken add
"couldn't wrap", and changed the `add` to an `or`.
InstCombine seems happy to figure out whether we can add nuw/nsw on its
own, so I just decided to drop the flags. There are already a number of
places in LoopVectorize where we rely on InstCombine to clean up.

r303763 caused build failures in some out-of-tree tests due to an assertion in
TTI. The original patch updated cost estimates for induction variable update
instructions marked for scalarization. However, it didn't consider that the

This caused queries for cast instruction costs with a mix of vector and scalar
types. This patch includes a fix for cast instructions and the test case from

For non-uniform instructions marked for scalarization, we should update
`VectorTy` when computing instruction costs to reflect the scalar type. In
addition to determining instruction costs, this type is also used to signal
that all instructions in the loop will be scalarized. This currently affects
memory instructions and non-pointer induction variables and their updates. (We
also mark GEPs scalar after vectorization, but their cost is computed together
with memory instructions.) For scalarized induction updates, this patch also
scales the scalar cost by the vectorization factor, corresponding to each
induction step.
llvm-svn: 303763
The loop vectorizer usually vectorizes any instruction it can and then
extracts the elements for a scalarized use. On SystemZ, all elements
containing addresses must be extracted into address registers (GRs). Since
this extraction is not free, it is better to have the address in a suitable
register to begin with. By forcing address arithmetic instructions and loads
of addresses to be scalar after vectorization, two benefits result:
* No need to extract the register
* LSR optimizations trigger (LSR isn't handling vector addresses currently)
Benchmarking show improvements on SystemZ with this new behaviour.
Any other target could try this by returning false in the new hook
prefersVectorizedAddressing().

The default behavior of -Rpass-analysis=loop-vectorizer is to report only the

for not vectorizing to be identified and reported, at the potential expense of
additional compile-time, under allowExtraAnalysis which can currently be turned
on by Clang's -fsave-optimization-record and opt's -pass-remarks-missed.
Removed from LoopVectorizationLegality::canVectorize() the redundant checking
and reporting if we CantComputeNumberOfIterations, as LAI::canAnalyzeLoop() also
