Logic of widenWithVariantUse is split into check and transform
part, unlike any other transform in IndVars. We want to pass some
extra flags from analysis to transform part and standartize
the code at once, so merging them together.
Variable ExtendOperExpr only exists to check whether it is a SCEV ext.
We create it as SCEV ext right here, so semantically this check is
trivially true. In theory, it may fail if SCEV is smart enough and can
simplify the expression. However, no matter whether it is an ext or not,
we never use this fact for further reasoning. So this code is currently
useless and in theory may become harmful with SCEV's development.
We do not expect any behavior changes with removing it. If it caused
negative changes, the patch should be reverted.
Some facts have already been checked in widenWithVariantUse and then
checked again in widenWithVariantUseCodegen. The latter is redundant,
we can replace it with asserts.
IV widening is sometimes a strictly harmful transform (some examples
of this are shown in tests 11, 12 in widen-loop-comp.ll). One of the
reasons of this is that sometimes SCEV fails to prove some facts after
part of guards has been widened.
Though each single such case looks like a bug that can be addressed,
it seems that disabling of IV widening may be profitable in some cases.
We want to have an option to do so. By default, existing behavior is
preserved and IV widening is on.
From preconditions it is known that either A dominates B or
B dominates A. If A does not dominate B, we do not really need
to check it. Assert should be enough. Should save some compile
time.
When removing exiting loop conditions, we only consider checks for
which we know the exact exit count. We could also eliminate checks for
which the condition is always true/false.

Summary:
This is RFC for fixes in poison-related functions of ValueTracking.
These functions assume that a value can be poison bitwisely, but the semantics
of bitwise poison is not clear at the moment.
Allowing a value to have bitwise poison adds complexity to reasoning about
correctness of optimizations.
This patch makes the analysis functions simply assume that a value is
either fully poison or not, which has been used to understand the correctness
of a few previous optimizations.
The bitwise poison semantics seems to be only used by these functions as well.
In terms of implementation, using value-wise poison concept makes existing

Summary:
The widenIVUse avoids generating trunc by evaluating the use as AddRec, this
will not work when:
1) SCEV traces back to an instruction inside the loop that SCEV can not
expand, eg. add %indvar, (load %addr)
2) SCEV finds a loop variant, eg. add %indvar, %loopvariant
While SCEV fails to avoid trunc, we can still try to use instruction
combining approach to prove trunc is not required. This can be further
extended with other instruction combining checks, but for now we handle the
following case (sub can be "add" and "mul", "nsw + sext" can be "nus + zext")
```
Src:
%c = sub nsw %b, %indvar
%d = sext %c to i64
Dst:
%indvar.ext1 = sext %indvar to i64
%m = sext %b to i64
%d = sub nsw i64 %m, %indvar.ext1
```
Therefore, as long as the result of add/sub/mul is extended to wide type with
right extension and overflow wrap combination, no
trunc is required regardless of how %b is generated. This pattern is common
when calculating address in 64 bit architecture.
Note that this patch reuse almost all the code from D49151 by @az:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D49151
It extends it by providing proof of why trunc is unnecessary in more general case,
it should also resolve some of the concerns from the following discussion with @reames.

In builds with assertions enabled (!NDEBUG), IndVarSimplify does an
additional query to ScalarEvolution which may change future SCEV queries
since it fills the internal cache differently. The result is actually
only used with the -verify-indvars command line option. We fix the issue
by only calling SE->getBackedgeTakenCount(L) if -verify-indvars is
enabled such that only -verify-indvars shows the behavior, but not debug
builds themselves. Also add a remark to the description of
-verify-indvars about this behavior.

This moves `rewriteLoopExitValues()` from IndVarSimplify to LoopUtils thus
making it a generic loop utility function. This allows to rewrite loop exit

We use this in D72714 to rematerialise the iteration count in exit blocks, so
that we can clean-up loop update expressions inside the hardware-loops later.

The basic idea of the transform is to convert variant loop exit conditions into invariant exit conditions by changing the iteration on which the exit is taken when we know that the trip count is unobservable. See the original patch which introduced the code for a more complete explanation.
The individual parts of this have been reviewed, the result has been fuzzed, and then further analyzed by hand, but despite all of that, I will not be suprised to see breakage here. If you see problems, please don't hesitate to revert - though please do provide a test case. The most likely class of issues are latent SCEV bugs and without a reduced test case, I'll be essentially stuck on reducing them.
(Note: A bunch of tests were opted out of the new transform to preserve coverage. That landed in a previous commit to simplify revert cycles if they turn out to be needed.)
This patch fixes two issues noticed by inspection when going to enable the loop predication code in IndVarSimplify.
Issue 1 - Both the LoopPredication transform, and the already on by default optimizeLoopExits transform, modify the exit count of the exits they modify. (either to 0 or Infinity) Looking at the code more closely, this was not reflected into SCEV and we were instead running later transforms with incorrect SCEVs. Fixing this requires forgetting the loop, weakening a too strong assert, and updating SCEV to not pessimize results when a loop is provable untaken. I haven't been able to find a test case to demonstrate the miscompile.
Issue 2 - For modules without a data layout, we can end up with unsized pointer typed exit counts. Just bail out of this case.
I think these are the last two issues which need addressed before we enable this by default. The code has already survived a decent amount of fuzzing without revealing either of the above.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D69695
We were already going to all of the trouble of computing maximum constant exit counts for each loop exit, we might as well expose them through the API. The change in IndVars is mostly to demonstrate that the wired up code works, but it als very slightly strengthens the transform. The strengthened case is rather narrow though: it requires one exactly analyzeable exit, one imprecisely analyzeable exit (with the upper bound less than the precise one), and one unanalyzeable exit. I coudn't construct a reasonably stable test case.
This does increase the memory usage of the BackedgeTakenCount by a factor of 2 in the worst case.
I also noticed the loop in IndVars is O(#Exits ^ 2). This doesn't change with this patch. A future patch will cache this result inside of SCEV to avoid requering.
The static analyzer is warning about a potential null dereference, but we should be able to use cast<> directly and if not assert will fire for us.
llvm-svn: 375426
We can end up with two loop exits whose exit counts are equivalent, but whose textual representation is different and non-obvious. For the sub-case where we have a series of exits which dominate one another (common), eliminate any exits which would iterate *after* a previous exit on the exiting iteration.
As noted in the TODO being removed, I'd always thought this was a good idea, but I've now seen this in a real workload as well.
Interestingly, in review, Nikita pointed out there's let another oppurtunity to leverage SCEV's reasoning. If we kept track of the min of dominanting exits so far, we could discharge exits with EC >= MDE. This is less powerful than the existing transform (since later exits aren't considered), but potentially more powerful for any case where SCEV can prove a >= b, but neither a == b or a > b. I don't have an example to illustrate that oppurtunity, but won't be suprised if we find one and return to handle that case as well.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D69009
llvm-svn: 375379
In the process of writing D69009, I realized we have two distinct sets of invariants within this single function, and basically no shared logic. The optimize loop exit transforms (including the new one in D69009) only care about *analyzeable* exits. Loop predication, on the other hand, has to reason about *all* exits. At the moment, we have the property (due to the requirement for an exact btc) that all exits are analyzeable, but that will likely change in the future as we add widenable condition support.
llvm-svn: 375138
The problem is that we can have two loop exits, 'a' and 'b', where 'a' and 'b' would exit at the same iteration, 'a' precedes 'b' along some path, and 'b' is predicated while 'a' is not. In this case (see the previously submitted test case), we causing the loop to exit through 'b' whereas it should have exited through 'a'.
This only applies to loop exits where the exit counts are not provably inequal, but that isn't as much of a restriction as it appears. If we could order the exit counts, we'd have already removed one of the two exits. In theory, we might be able to prove inequality w/o ordering, but I didn't really explore that piece. Instead, I went for the obvious restriction and ensured we didn't predicate exits following non-predicateable exits.
Credit goes to Evgeny Brevnov for figuring out the problematic case. Fuzzing probably also found it (failures seen), but due to some silly infrastructure problems I hadn't gotten to the results before Evgeny hand reduced it from a benchmark (he manually enabled the transform). Once this is fixed, I'll try to filter through the fuzzer failures to see if there's anything additional lurking.

Doing this makes MSVC complain that `empty(someRange)` could refer to
either C++17's std::empty or LLVM's llvm::empty, which previously we
avoided via SFINAE because std::empty is defined in terms of an empty

method as it is added.

This patch implements a variation of a well known techniques for JIT compilers - we have an implementation in tree as LoopPredication - but with an interesting twist. This version does not assume the ability to execute a path which wasn't taken in the original program (such as a guard or widenable.condition intrinsic). The benefit is that this works for arbitrary IR from any frontend (including C/C++/Fortran). The tradeoff is that it's restricted to read only loops without implicit exits.
This builds on SCEV, and can thus eliminate the loop varying portion of the any early exit where all exits are understandable by SCEV. A key advantage is that fixing deficiency exposed in SCEV - already found one while writing test cases - will also benefit all of full redundancy elimination (and most other loop transforms).
I haven't seen anything in the literature which quite matches this. Given that, I'm not entirely sure that keeping the name "loop predication" is helpful. Anyone have suggestions for a better name? This is analogous to partial redundancy elimination - since we remove the condition flowing around the backedge - and has some parallels to our existing transforms which try to make conditions invariant in loops.
Factoring wise, I chose to put this in IndVarSimplify since it's a generally applicable to all workloads. I could split this off into it's own pass, but we'd then probably want to add that new pass every place we use IndVars. One solid argument for splitting it off into it's own pass is that this transform is "too good". It breaks a huge number of existing IndVars test cases as they tend to be simple read only loops. At the moment, I've opted it off by default, but if we add this to IndVars and enable, we'll have to update around 20 test files to add side effects or disable this transform.
Near term plan is to fuzz this extensively while off by default, reflect and discuss on the factoring issue mentioned just above, and then enable by default. I also need to give some though to supporting widenable conditions in this framing.

Summary:
This is the first change to enable the TLI to be built per-function so
that -fno-builtin* handling can be migrated to use function attributes.
See discussion on D61634 for background. This is an enabler for fixing
handling of these options for LTO, for example.
This change should not affect behavior, as the provided function is not
yet used to build a specifically per-function TLI, but rather enables
that migration.
Most of the changes were very mechanical, e.g. passing a Function to the
legacy analysis pass's getTLI interface, or in Module level cases,
adding a callback. This is similar to the way the per-function TTI
analysis works.
There was one place where we were looking for builtins but not in the
context of a specific function. See FindCXAAtExit in
lib/Transforms/IPO/GlobalOpt.cpp. I'm somewhat concerned my workaround
could provide the wrong behavior in some corner cases. Suggestions
welcome.
