Tobias Grosser 2d3d4ec860 executeScopConditionally: Introduce special exiting block
When introducing separate control flow for the original and optimized code we
introduce now a special 'ExitingBlock':

      \   /
    EnteringBB
        |
    SplitBlock---------\
   _____|_____         |
  /  EntryBB  \    StartBlock
  |  (region) |        |
  \_ExitingBB_/   ExitingBlock
        |              |
    MergeBlock---------/
        |
      ExitBB
      /    \

This 'ExitingBlock' contains code such as the final_reloads for scalars, which
previously were just added to whichever statement/loop_exit/branch-merge block
had been generated last. Having an explicit basic block makes it easier to
find these constructs when looking at the CFG.

Michael Kruse 225f0d1ee2 Load/Store scalar accesses before/after the statement itself
Instead of generating implicit loads within basic blocks, put them 
before the instructions of the statment itself, including non-affine 
subregions. The region's entry node is dominating all blocks in the 
region and therefore the loaded value will be available there.

Implicit writes in block-stmts were already stored back at the end of 
the block. Now, also generate the stores of non-affine subregions when 
leaving the statement, i.e. in the exiting block.

This change is required for array-mapped implicits ("De-LICM") to 
ensure that there are no dependencies of demoted scalars within 
statments. Statement load all required values, operator on copied in 
registers, and then write back the changed value to the demoted memory. 
Lifetimes analysis within statements becomes unecessary.

Tobias Grosser f4ee371e60 tests: Drop -polly-detect-unprofitable and -polly-no-early-exit
These flags are now always passed to all tests and need to be disabled if
not needed. Disabling these flags, rather than passing them to almost all
tests, significantly simplfies our RUN: lines.

Johannes Doerfert fb19dd694c Create parallel code in a separate block
This commit basically reverts r246427 but still solves the issue
  tackled by that commit. Instead of emitting initialization code in the
  beginning of the start block we now generate parallel code in its own
  block and thereby guarantee separation. This is necessary as we cannot
  generate code for hoisted loads prior to the start block but it still
  needs to be placed prior to everything else.

Johannes Doerfert ca1e38fa43 Propagate exit conditions as described in the PET paper
At some point we build loop trip counts using this method. It was replaced by
  a simpler trick that works only for affine (e.g., not modulo) constraints and
  relies on the removal of unbounded parts. In order to allow modulo constrains
  again we go back to the former, more accurate method.

Michael Kruse 22370884c4 Revise the simplification of regions
The previous code had several problems:

For newly created BasicBlocks it did not (always) call RegionInfo::setRegionFor in order to update its analysis. At the moment RegionInfo does not verify its BBMap, but will in the future. This is fixed by determining the region new BBs belong to and set it accordingly. The new executeScopConditionally() requires accurate getRegionFor information. 

Which block is created by SplitEdge depends on the incoming and outgoing edges of the blocks it connects, which makes handling its output more difficult than it needs to be. Especially for finding which block has been created an to assign a region to it for the setRegionFor problem above. This patch uses an implementation for splitEdge that always creates a block between the predecessor and successor. simplifyRegion has also been simplified by using SplitBlockPredecessors instead of SplitEdge. Isolating the entries and exits have been refectored into individual functions.

Previously simplifyRegion did more than just ensuring that there is only one entering and one exiting edge. It ensured that the entering block had no other outgoing edge which was necessary for executeScopConditionally(). Now the latter uses the alternative splitEdge implementation which can handle this situation so simplifyRegion really only needs to simplify the region.

Also, executeScopConditionally assumed that there can be no PHI nodes in blocks with one incoming edge. This is wrong and LCSSA deliberately produces such edges. However, previous passes ensured that there can be no such PHIs in exit nodes, but which will no longer hold in the future.

The new code that the property that it preserves the identity of region block (the property that the memory address of the BasicBlock containing the instructions remains the same; new blocks only contain PHI nodes and a terminator), especially the entry block. As a result, there is no need to update the reference to the BasicBlock of ScopStmt that contain its instructions because they have been moved to other basic blocks.

Tobias Grosser af4e809ca6 Remove code for scalar and PHI to array translation
This removes old code that has been disabled since several weeks and was hidden
behind the flags -disable-polly-intra-scop-scalar-to-array=false and
-polly-model-phi-nodes=false. Earlier, Polly used to translate scalars and
PHI nodes to single element arrays, as this avoided the need for their special
handling in Polly. With Johannes' patches adding native support for such scalar
references to Polly, this code is not needed any more. After this commit both
-polly-prepare and -polly-independent are now mostly no-ops. Only a couple of
simple transformations still remain, but they are scheduled for removal too.

Thanks again to Johannes Doerfert for his nice work in making all this code
obsolete.

Johannes Doerfert ecff11dcfb Add scalar and phi code generation
To reduce compile time and to allow more and better quality SCoPs in
  the long run we introduced scalar dependences and PHI-modeling. This
  patch will now allow us to generate code if one or both of those
  options are set. While the principle of demoting scalars as well as
  PHIs to memory in order to communicate their value stays the same,
  this allows to delay the demotion till the very end (the actual code
  generation). Consequently:
    - We __almost__ do not modify the code if we do not generate code
      for an optimized SCoP in the end. Thus, the early exit as well as
      the unprofitable option will now actually preven us from
      introducing regressions in case we will probably not get better
      code.
    - Polly can be used as a "pure" analyzer tool as long as the code
      generator is set to none.
    - The original SCoP is almost not touched when the optimized version
      is placed next to it. Runtime regressions if the runtime checks
      chooses the original are not to be expected and later
      optimizations do not need to revert the demotion for that part.
    - We will generate direct accesses to the demoted values, thus there
      are no "trivial GEPs" that select the first element of a scalar we
      demoted and treated as an array.
