* Correct stale documentation in a few places
* Re-order the file to better associate things and reduce line count
* Make the pass thread safe by caching the Function* objects needed by the
optimizers in the pass object instead of globally.
* Provide the SimplifyLibCalls pass object to the optimizer classes so they
can access cached Function* objects and TargetData info
* Make sure the pass resets its cache if the Module passed to runOnModule
changes
* Rename CallOptimizer LibCallOptimization. All the classes are named
*Optimization while the objects are *Optimizer.
* Don't cache Function* in the optimizer objects because they could be used
by multiple PassManager's running in multiple threads
* Add an optimization for strcpy which is similar to strcat
* Add a "TODO" list at the end of the file for ideas on additional libcall
optimizations that could be added (get ideas from other compilers).
Sorry for the huge diff. Its mostly reorganization of code. That won't
happen again as I believe the design and infrastructure for this pass is
now done or close to it.

* MemCpyOptimization can only be optimized if the 3rd and 4th arguments are
constants and we weren't checking for that.
* The result of llvm.memcpy (and llvm.memmove) is void* not sbyte*, put in
a cast.
llvm-svn: 21570
* Have the SimplifyLibCalls pass acquire the TargetData and pass it down to
the optimization classes so they can use it to make better choices for
the signatures of functions, etc.
* Rearrange the code a little so the utility functions are closer to their
usage and keep the core of the pass near the top of the files.
* Adjust the StrLen pass to get/use the correct prototype depending on the
TargetData::getIntPtrType() result. The result of strlen is size_t which
could be either uint or ulong depending on the platform.
* Clean up some coding nits (cast vs. dyn_cast, remove redundant items from
a switch, etc.)
* Implement the MemMoveOptimization as a twin of MemCpyOptimization (they
only differ in name).
llvm-svn: 21569
named getConstantStringLength. This is the common part of StrCpy and
StrLen optimizations and probably several others, yet to be written. It
performs all the validity checks for looking at constant arrays that are
supposed to be null-terminated strings and then computes the actual
length of the string.
* Implement the MemCpyOptimization class. This just turns memcpy of 1, 2, 4
and 8 byte data blocks that are properly aligned on those boundaries into
a load and a store. Much more could be done here but alignment
restrictions and lack of knowledge of the target instruction set prevent
use from doing significantly more. That will have to be delegated to the
code generators as they lower llvm.memcpy calls.
llvm-svn: 21562
* Change signatures of OptimizeCall and ValidateCalledFunction so they are
non-const, allowing the optimization object to be modified. This is in
support of caching things used across multiple calls.
* Provide two functions for constructing and caching function types
* Modify the StrCatOptimization to cache Function objects for strlen and
llvm.memcpy so it doesn't regenerate them on each call site. Make sure
these are invalidated each time we start the pass.
* Handle both a GEP Instruction and a GEP ConstantExpr
* Add additional checks to make sure we really are dealing with an arary of
sbyte and that all the element initializers are ConstantInt or
ConstantExpr that reduce to ConstantInt.
* Make sure the GlobalVariable is constant!
* Don't use ConstantArray::getString as it can fail and it doesn't give us
the right thing. We must check for null bytes in the middle of the array.
* Use llvm.memcpy instead of memcpy so we can factor alignment into it.
* Don't use void* types in signatures, replace with sbyte* instead.
llvm-svn: 21555
* Don't use std::string for the function names, const char* will suffice
* Allow each CallOptimizer to validate the function signature before
doing anything
* Repeatedly loop over the functions until an iteration produces
no more optimizations. This allows one optimization to insert a
call that is optimized by another optimization.
* Implement the ConstantArray portion of the StrCatOptimization
* Provide a template for the MemCpyOptimization
* Make ExitInMainOptimization split the block, not delete everything
after the return instruction.
(This covers revision 1.3 and 1.4, as the 1.3 comments were botched)
llvm-svn: 21548
* Fix comments at top of file
* Change algorithm for running the call optimizations from n*n to something
closer to n.
* Use a hash_map to store and lookup the optimizations since there will
eventually (or potentially) be a large number of them. This gets lookup
based on the name of the function to O(1). Each CallOptimizer now has a
std::string member named func_name that tracks the name of the function
that it applies to. It is this string that is entered into the hash_map
for fast comparison against the function names encountered in the module.
* Cleanup some style issues pertaining to iterator invalidation
* Don't pass the Function pointer to the OptimizeCall function because if
the optimization needs it, it can get it from the CallInst passed in.
* Add the skeleton for a new CallOptimizer, StrCatOptimizer which will
eventually replace strcat's of constant strings with direct copies.
llvm-svn: 21526
calls. The pass visits all external functions in the module and determines
if such function calls can be optimized. The optimizations are specific to
the library calls involved. This initial version only optimizes calls to
exit(3) when they occur in main(): it changes them to ret instructions.
llvm-svn: 21522
in SPEC, the subsequent optimziations that we are after don't play with
with FP values, so disable this xform for them. Really we just don't want
stuff like:
double G; (always 0 or 412312.312)
= G;
turning into:
bool G_b;
= G_b ? 412312.312 : 0;
We'd rather just do the load.

This patch implements GlobalOpt/load-store-global.llx.

to:

Which isn't bad at all!

argument pointers. This is only valid to do if the function already
unconditionally loaded an argument or if the pointer passed in is known

This allows to elimination of a bunch of global pool descriptor args from
programs being pool allocated (and is also generally useful!)
llvm-svn: 17657
First, it allows SRA of globals that have embedded arrays, implementing
GlobalOpt/globalsra-partial.llx. This comes up infrequently, but does allow,
for example, deleting several stores to dead parts of globals in dhrystone.
Second, this implements GlobalOpt/malloc-promote-*.llx, which is the
following nifty transformation:
Basically if a global pointer is initialized with malloc, and we can tell
that the program won't notice, we transform this:
struct foo *FooPtr;
...
FooPtr = malloc(sizeof(struct foo));
...
FooPtr->A FooPtr->B
Into:
struct foo FooPtrBody;
...
FooPtrBody.A FooPtrBody.B
This comes up occasionally, for example, the 'disp' global in 183.equake (where
the xform speeds the CBE version of the program up from 56.16s to 52.40s (7%)
on apoc), and the 'desired_accept', 'fixLRBT', 'macroArray', & 'key_queue'
globals in 300.twolf (speeding it up from 22.29s to 21.55s (3.4%)).
The nice thing about this xform is that it exposes the resulting global to
global variable optimization and makes alias analysis easier in addition to
eliminating a few loads.
llvm-svn: 16916
still optimize away all of the indirect calls and loads, etc from it.
This turns code like this:

G();

making changes as we do so.
This patch has no functionlity changes.
llvm-svn: 16874
we know that all uses of the global will trap if the pointer contained is
null. In this case, we forward substitute the stored value to any uses.
This has the effect of devirtualizing trivial globals in trivial cases. For
example, 164.gzip contains this:
gzip.h:extern int (*read_buf) OF((char *buf, unsigned size));
bits.c: read_buf = file_read;
deflate.c: lookahead = read_buf((char*)window,
deflate.c: n = read_buf((char*)window+strstart+lookahead, more);
Since read_buf has to point to file_read at every use, we just replace
the calls through read_buf with a direct call to file_read.
This occurs in several benchmarks, including 176.gcc and 164.gzip. Direct
calls are good and stuff.
llvm-svn: 16871
* Do not lead dangling dead constants prevent optimization
* Iterate global optimization while we're making progress.
These changes allow us to be more aggressive, handling cases like
GlobalOpt/iterate.llx without a problem (turning it into 'ret int 0').
llvm-svn: 16857
optimizations to trigger much more often. This allows the elimination of
several dozen more global variables in Programs/External. Note that we only
do this for non-constant globals: constant globals will already be optimized
out if the accesses to them permit it.
This implements Transforms/GlobalOpt/globalsra.llx
llvm-svn: 16842
* Instead of handling dead functions specially, just nuke them.
* Be more aggressive about cleaning up after constification, in
particular, handle getelementptr instructions and constantexprs.
* Be a little bit more structured about how we process globals.
*** Delete globals that are only stored to, and never read. These are
clearly not useful, so they should go. This implements deadglobal.llx
This last one triggers quite a few times. In particular, 2208 in the
external tests, 1865 of which are in 252.eon. This shrinks eon from
1995094 to 1732341 bytes of bytecode.
llvm-svn: 16802
simplifications of the resultant program to avoid making later passes
do it all.
This allows us to constify globals that just have the same constant that
they are initialized stored into them.
Suprisingly this comes up ALL of the freaking time, dozens of times in
SPEC, 30 times in vortex alone.
For example, on 256.bzip2, it allows us to constify these two globals:
%smallMode = internal global ubyte 0 ; <ubyte*> [#uses=8]
%verbosity = internal global int 0 ; <int*> [#uses=49]
Which (with later optimizations) results in the bytecode file shrinking
from 82286 to 69686 bytes! Lets hear it for IPO :)
For the record, it's nuking lots of "if (verbosity > 2) { do lots of stuff }"
code.
llvm-svn: 16793

test/Programs/SingleSource/Regression/C/2004-08-12-InlinerAndAllocas.c

This should obviously be pulled into 1.3.
llvm-svn: 15684
dangling constant users were removed from a function, causing it to be dead,
we never removed the call graph edge from the external node to the function.
In most cases, this didn't cause a problem (by luck). This should definitely
go into 1.3

Eventually it would be nice if CallGraph maintained an ilist of CallGraphNode's instead

Now we collect all of the call sites we are interested in inlining, then inline
them. This entirely avoids issues with trying to inline a call site we got by
inlining another call site. This also eliminates iterator invalidation issues.

llvm-svn: 12403
* Be a lot more accurate about what the effects will be when inlining a call
to a function when an argument is an alloca.
* Dramatically reduce the penalty for inlining a call in a large function.
This heuristic made it almost impossible to inline a function into a large
function, no matter how small the callee is.
llvm-svn: 12363
This allows pointers to aggregate objects, whose elements are only read, to
be promoted and passed in by element instead of by reference. This can
enable a LOT of subsequent optimizations in the caller function.
It's worth pointing out that this stuff happens a LOT of C++ programs, because
objects in templates are generally passed around by reference. When these
templates are instantiated on small aggregate or scalar types, however, it is
more efficient to pass them in by value than by reference.
This transformation triggers most on C++ codes (e.g. 334 times on eon), but
does happen on C codes as well. For example, on mesa it triggers 72 times,
and on gcc it triggers 35 times. this is amazingly good considering that
we are using 'basicaa' so far.
llvm-svn: 12202
assume that if they don't intend to write to a global variable, that they
would mark it as constant. However, there are people that don't understand
that the compiler can do nice things for them if they give it the information
it needs.
This pass looks for blatently obvious globals that are only ever read from.
Though it uses a trivially simple "alias analysis" of sorts, it is still able
to do amazing things to important benchmarks. 253.perlbmk, for example,
contains several ***GIANT*** function pointer tables that are not marked
constant and should be. Marking them constant allows the optimizer to turn
a whole bunch of indirect calls into direct calls. Note that only a link-time
optimizer can do this transformation, but perlbmk does have several strings
and other minor globals that can be marked constant by this pass when run
from GCCAS.
176.gcc has a ton of strings and large tables that are marked constant, both
at compile time (38 of them) and at link time (48 more). Other benchmarks
give similar results, though it seems like big ones have disproportionally
more than small ones.
This pass is extremely quick and does good things. I'm going to enable it
in gccas & gccld. Not bad for 50 SLOC.

llvm-svn: 9828
as well as arguments. Now it can delete arguments and return values which are
only passed into other arguments or are returned, if they are dead. This causes
it to delete several hundred extra args/retvals from the C++ hello world program,
shrinking it by about 2K.
llvm-svn: 9398
Only transform call sites in a setjmp'ing function which are reachable from
the setjmp. If the call dominates the setjmp (for example), the called
function cannot longjmp to the setjmp.
This dramatically reduces the number of invoke instructions created in some
large testcases.

of callees between executions.
On eon, in release mode, this changes the inliner from taking 11.5712s
to taking 2.2066s. In debug mode, it went from taking 14.4148s to
taking 7.0745s. In release mode, this is a 24.7% speedup of gccas, in
debug mode, it's a total speedup of 11.7%.
This also makes it slightly more aggressive. This could be because we
are not judging the size of the functions quite as accurately as before.
When we start looking at the performance of the generated code, this can
be investigated further.
llvm-svn: 8893
in it being both shorter and more effective. It no longer depends on the
callgraph, so one FIXME has been fixed.
Additionally, this pass was not able to delete recursive (but dead) functions
if they were pointed to by global variables which were also dead. In fact
this pass had a lot of problems deleting functions which were only pointed
to by dead globals and other stuff.
Fixing this means that the entire EH library should be stripped away now from
programs that don't use sjlj or exceptions.
llvm-svn: 8567
This makes it more efficient: it doesn't have to scan the whole program, so
it performs work proportional to the number of malloc/free calls in the
