Instead, expose whether the current type is an array or a struct, if an array
what the upper bound is, and if a struct the struct type itself. This is
in preparation for a later change which will make PointerType derive from
Type rather than SequentialType.

Summary:
Previously, CGP would unconditionally sink addrspacecast instructions,
even going so far as to sink them into a loop.
Now we check that the cast is "cheap", as defined by TLI.
We introduce a new "is-cheap" function to TLI rather than using
isNopAddrSpaceCast because some GPU platforms want the ability to ask
for non-nop casts to be sunk.

Summary: Merging an empty case block into the header block of switch could cause
ISel to add COPY instructions in the header of switch, instead of the case
block, if the case block is used as an incoming block of a PHI. This could
potentially increase dynamic instructions, especially when the switch is in a
loop. I added a test case which was reduced from the benchmark I was targetting.

of which that is hidden inside a separate function call) and helpfully
before building expensive transaction infrastructure. This will avoid
crashing when running CGP in a generic mode if we ever managed to hit
this case.
Note that I spent some time looking at alternatives. CGP is actually
used without a TM or TLI in order to do some target-independent testing.
Further, all of the neighboring optimization techniques actually have
some paths that are effective even in the absence of TLI so this seemed
the correct scope at which to check and bypass logic. It still isn't
clear that long-term support for missing TM/TLI is the right
cost/benefit tradeoff for CGP -- we seem to get relatively little for it
and the code is just littered with checks (and assumptions which
I suspect are still missing some checks).
This at least fixes the potential bug in this code spotted by
PVS-Studio, so we've got that going for us. ;]

Summary:
The original implementation is in r261607, which was reverted in r269726 to accomendate the ProfileSummaryInfo analysis pass. The new implementation:
1. add a new metadata for function section prefix
2. query against ProfileSummaryInfo in CGP to set the correct section prefix for each function
3. output the section prefix set by CGP

CodeGenPrepare knows how to move a zext of a load into the same basic block
where the load lives. The goal is to help ISel match a zero-extending load
instead of two separated instructions.
CGP attempts to move a zext computation even if it lives in a basic block that
does not post-dominate the load's basic block. That means, the hoisted zext may
be speculated. Preserving the zext location would hurt the debugging experience
and the quality of sample pgo.
With this patch, when moving a zext near to its associated load, CGP no longer
propagates the zext's debug location. Instead, CGP conservatively reuses the
same debug location for the load and the zext.
An alternative approach would be to assign an artificial line-0 location to the
zext. However we don't want to over-use the 'line-0' for this particular case
because it would have a size cost in the line-table section for no additional
benefit.

CGP tail-duplicates rets into blocks that end with a call that feed the ret.
This puts the call in tail position, potentially allowing the DAG builder to
lower it as a tail call. To avoid tail duplication in cases where we won't
form the tail call, CGP tried to predict whether this is going to be possible,
and avoids doing it when lowering as a tail call will definitely fail.
However, it was being too conservative by always throwing away calls to
functions with a signext/zeroext attribute on the return type.
Instead, we can use the same logic the builder uses to determine whether the
attributes work out.

This is part of solving PR27344:

CGP should undo the SimplifyCFG transform for the same reason that earlier patches have used this
same mechanism: it's possible that passes between SimplifyCFG and CGP may be able to optimize the
IR further with a select in place.
For the TLI hook default, >99% taken or not taken is chosen as the default threshold for a highly
predictable branch. Even the most limited HW branch predictors will be correct on this branch almost
all the time, so even a massive mispredict penalty perf loss would be overcome by the win from all
the times the branch was predicted correctly.
As a follow-up, we could make the default target hook less conservative by using the SchedMachineModel's
MispredictPenalty. Or we could just let targets override the default by implementing the hook with that
and other target-specific options. Note that trying to statically determine mispredict rates for
close-to-balanced profile weight data is generally impossible if the HW is sufficiently advanced. Ie,
50/50 taken/not-taken might still be 100% predictable.
Finally, note that this patch as-is will not solve PR27344 because the current __builtin_unpredictable()
branch weight default values are 4 and 64. A proposal to change that is in D19435.

The original commit was reverted because of a buildbot problem with LazyCallGraph::SCC handling (not related to the OptBisect handling).
Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D19172
llvm-svn: 267231
This patch implements a optimization bisect feature, which will allow optimizations to be selectively disabled at compile time in order to track down test failures that are caused by incorrect optimizations.
The bisection is enabled using a new command line option (-opt-bisect-limit). Individual passes that may be skipped call the OptBisect object (via an LLVMContext) to see if they should be skipped based on the bisect limit. A finer level of control (disabling individual transformations) can be managed through an addition OptBisect method, but this is not yet used.
The skip checking in this implementation is based on (and replaces) the skipOptnoneFunction check. Where that check was being called, a new call has been inserted in its place which checks the bisect limit and the optnone attribute. A new function call has been added for module and SCC passes that behaves in a similar way.

This patch fixes calculating of builtin_object_size if it depends on a
condition. Before this patch compiler did not know how to calculate the
object size when it finds a condition that cannot be eliminated.
This patch enables calculating of builtin_object_size even in case when
condition cannot be eliminated by choosing minimum or maximum value as a
result from condition. Choosing minimum or maximum value from condition
is based on the second argument of __builtin_object_size function.

Presently, CodeGenPrepare deletes all nearly empty (only phi and branch)
basic blocks. This pass can delete loop preheaders which frequently creates
critical edges. A preheader can be a convenient place to spill registers to
the stack. If the entrance to a loop body is a critical edge, then spills
may occur in the loop body rather than immediately before it. This patch
protects loop preheaders from deletion in CodeGenPrepare even if they are
nearly empty.
Since the patch alters the CFG, it affects a large number of test cases.
In most cases, the changes are merely cosmetic (basic blocks have different
names or instruction orders change slightly). I am somewhat concerned about
the test/CodeGen/Mips/brdelayslot.ll test case. If the loop preheader is not
deleted, then the MIPS backend does not take advantage of a branch delay
slot. Consequently, I would like some close review by a MIPS expert.
The patch also partially subsumes D16893 from George Burgess IV. George
correctly notes that CodeGenPrepare does not actually preserve the dominator
tree. I think the dominator tree was usually not valid when CodeGenPrepare
ran, but I am using LoopInfo to mark preheaders, so the dominator tree is
now always valid before CodeGenPrepare.

Sinking comparisons in CGP can undo the job of hoisting them done
earlier by LICM, and soft-FP makes this an expensive mistake.
A common pattern that produces floating point comparisons uniform
over a loop is an explicit check for division by zero. If the divisor
is hoisted out of the loop, the comparison can also be, but hoisting
the function that unwinds is never legal, since it may cause side
effects in the loop body prior to the unwinding to not be executed.

This patch teaches CGP to duplicate addressing mode computations into cold paths (detected via explicit cold attribute on calls) if required to let addressing mode be safely sunk into the basic block containing each load and store.
In general, duplicating code into cold blocks may result in code growth, but should not effect performance. In this case, it's better to duplicate some code than to put extra pressure on the register allocator by making it keep the address through the entirely of the fast path.
This patch only handles addressing computations, but in principal, we could implement a more general cold cold scheduling heuristic which tries to reduce register pressure in the fast path by duplicating code into the cold path. Getting the profitability of the general case right seemed likely to be challenging, so I stuck to the existing case (addressing computation) we already had.

Stop using `getNodePtrUnchecked()` when building IR. Eventually a
dereference will be required to get at the downcast node, since the
iterator will only store an `ilist_node_base` of some sort.
This should have no functionality change for now, but is a path towards
removing some more UB from ilist.
llvm-svn: 261495
`ilist_iterator<NodeTy>::getNodePtrUnchecked()` is documented as being
for internal use only, but CodeGenPrepare was using it anyway. This
code relies on pulling out the `Value*` pointer even after the lifetime
of the iterator is over. But having this pointer available in
ilist_iterator depends on UB in the first place.
Instead, safely pull out the `Value*` when the iterator is alive and
stop using the internal-only API.
There should be no functionality change here.

accesss the variable. So, it's not possible to implicitly increase

There are several requirements that ended up with this design;
1. Matching bitreversals is too heavyweight for InstCombine and doesn't really need to be done so early.
2. Bitreversals and byteswaps are very related in their matching logic.
3. We want to implement support for matching more advanced bswap/bitreverse patterns like partial bswaps/bitreverses.
4. Bswaps are best matched early in InstCombine.
The result of these is that a new utility function is created in Transforms/Utils/Local.h that can be configured to search for bswaps, bitreverses or both. InstCombine uses it to find only bswaps, CGP uses it to find only bitreversals.
We can then extend the matching logic in one place only.
