While looking at a heap profile of a clang LTO bootstrap with -g, I
noticed that 2.2% of memory in an `llvm-lto` of clang is from calling
`DebugLoc::get()` in `collectVariableInfo()` (accounting for ~40% of
memory used for `MDLocation`s).
I suspect this was introduced by r226736, whose goal was to prevent
uniquing of `DebugLoc`s (goal achieved, if so).
There's no reason we need a `DebugLoc` here at all -- it was just being
used for (in)convenient API -- so the fix is to pass the scope and
inlined-at directly to `LexicalScopes::findInlinedScope()`.

This adds a safe interface to the machine independent InputArg struct
for accessing the index of the original (IR-level) argument. When a
non-native return type is lowered, we generate the hidden
machine-level sret argument on-the-fly. Before this fix, we were
representing this argument as OrigArgIndex == 0, which is an outright
lie. In particular this crashed in the AArch64 backend where we
actually try to access the type of the original argument.
Now we use a sentinel value for machine arguments that have no
original argument index. AArch64, ARM, Mips, and PPC now check for this
case before accessing the original argument.

The NodeMetadata are maintained in an incremental way. When an edge between
2 nodes has its cost updated, in the course of graph reduction for example,
the NodeMetadata need first to have the old edge cost removed, then the new

becomes safe to consider promoting the nodes to the
ConservativelyAllocatable or OptimallyReducible sets. Previously, this
promotion was occuring right after the removing the old cost, and this was
breaking the assumption that a ConservativelyAllocatable should not be

llvm-svn: 228764
Background: When handling underlying objects for a store, the vector
of previous mem uses, mapped to the same Value, is afterwards cleared
(regardless of ThisMayAlias). This means that during handling of the
next store using the same Value, adjustChainDeps() must be called,
otherwise a dependency might be missed.
For example, three spill/reload (NonAliasing) memory accesses using
the same Value 'a', with different offsets:
SU(2): store @a
SU(1): store @a, Offset:1
SU(0): load @a
In this case we have:
* SU(1) does not need a dep against SU(0). Therefore,SU(0) ends up in
RejectMemNodes and is removed from the mem-uses list (AliasMemUses
or NonAliasMemUses), as this list is cleared.
* SU(2) needs a dep against SU(0). Therefore, SU(2) must check
RejectMemNodes by calling adjustChainDeps().
Previously, for store SUs, adjustChainDeps() was only called if
MayAlias was true, missing the S(2) to S(0) dependency in the case
above. The fix is to always call adjustChainDeps(), regardless of
MayAlias, since this applies both for AliasMemUses and
NonAliasMemUses.

nodes when folding bitcasts of constants.
We can't fold things and then check after-the-fact whether it was legal.
Once we have formed the DAG node, arbitrary other nodes may have been
collapsed to it. There is no easy way to go back. Instead, we need to
test for the specific folding cases we're interested in and ensure those
are legal first.
This could in theory make this less powerful for bitcasting from an
integer to some vector type, but AFAICT, that can't actually happen in
the SDAG so its fine. Now, we *only* whitelist specific int->fp and
fp->int bitcasts for post-legalization folding. I've added the test case
from the PR.

by using a segment set.
The patch addresses a compile-time performance regression in the LiveIntervals
analysis pass (see http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=18580). This regression
is especially critical when compiling long functions. Our analysis had shown
that the most of time is taken for generation of live intervals for physical
registers. Insertions in the middle of the array of live ranges cause quadratic
algorithmic complexity, which is apparently the main reason for the slow-down.
Overview of changes:
- The patch introduces an additional std::set<Segment>* member in LiveRange for
storing segments in the phase of initial creation. The set is used if this
member is not NULL, otherwise everything works the old way.
- The set of operations on LiveRange used during initial creation (i.e. used by
createDeadDefs and extendToUses) have been reimplemented to use the segment
set if it is available.
- After a live range is created the contents of the set are flushed to the
segment vector, because the set is not as efficient as the vector for the
later uses of the live range. After the flushing, the set is deleted and
cannot be used again.
- The set is only for live ranges computed in
LiveIntervalAnalysis::computeLiveInRegUnits() and getRegUnit() but not in
computeVirtRegs(), because I did not bring any performance benefits to
computeVirtRegs() and for some examples even brought a slow down.

The combine that forms extloads used to be disabled on vector types,
because "None of the supported targets knows how to perform load and
sign extend on vectors in one instruction."
That's not entirely true, since at least SSE4.1 X86 knows how to do
those sextloads/zextloads (with PMOVS/ZX).
But there are several aspects to getting this right.
First, vector extloads are controlled by a profitability callback.
For instance, on ARM, several instructions have folded extload forms,
so it's not always beneficial to create an extload node (and trying to
match extloads is a whole 'nother can of worms).
The interesting optimization enables folding of s/zextloads to illegal
(splittable) vector types, expanding them into smaller legal extloads.
It's not ideal (it introduces some legalization-like behavior in the
combine) but it's better than the obvious alternative: form illegal
extloads, and later try to split them up. If you do that, you might
generate extloads that can't be split up, but have a valid ext+load
expansion. At vector-op legalization time, it's too late to generate
this kind of code, so you end up forced to scalarize. It's better to
just avoid creating egregiously illegal nodes.
This optimization is enabled unconditionally on X86.
Note that the splitting combine is happy with "custom" extloads. As
is, this bypasses the actual custom lowering, and just unrolls the
extload. But from what I've seen, this is still much better than the
current custom lowering, which does some kind of unrolling at the end
anyway (see for instance load_sext_4i8_to_4i64 on SSE2, and the added
FIXME).
Also note that the existing combine that forms extloads is now also
enabled on legal vectors. This doesn't have a big effect on X86
(because sext+load is usually combined to sext_inreg+aextload).
On ARM it fires on some rare occasions; that's for a separate commit.

Also, finish providing a cached per-function subtarget in the core
LLVMTargetMachine -- that layer hadn't switched over yet.
The only use of the TargetMachine was to re-lookup a subtarget for
a particular function to work around the fact that TTI was immutable.
Now that it is per-function and we haved a cached subtarget, use it.

Most of the derived types had a TLI cached already and there is no need

This will in turn make it much cleaner to look up the TLI via
a per-function subtarget instead of the generic subtarget, and it will
pave the way toward pulling the subtarget used for unroll preferences
into the same form once we are *always* using the function to look up
the correct subtarget.

TargetIRAnalysis access path directly rather than implementing getTTI.
This even removes getTTI from the interface. It's more efficient for
each target to just register a precise callback that creates their

As part of this, all of the targets which are building their subtargets
individually per-function now build their TTI instance with the function
and thus look up the correct subtarget and cache it. NVPTX, R600, and
XCore currently don't leverage this functionality, but its trivial for
them to add it now.

terms of the new pass manager's TargetIRAnalysis.
Yep, this is one of the nicer bits of the new pass manager's design.
Passes can in many cases operate in a vacuum and so we can just nest
things when convenient. This is particularly convenient here as I can
now consolidate all of the TargetMachine logic on this analysis.
The most important change here is that this pushes the function we need
TTI for all the way into the TargetMachine, and re-creates the TTI
object for each function rather than re-using it for each function.
We're now prepared to teach the targets to produce function-specific TTI
objects with specific subtargets cached, etc.
One piece of feedback I'd love here is whether its worth renaming any of
this stuff. None of the names really seem that awesome to me at this
point, but TargetTransformInfoWrapperPass is particularly ... odd.
TargetIRAnalysisWrapper might make more sense. I would want to do that

base which it adds a single analysis pass to, to instead return the type
erased TargetTransformInfo object constructed for that TargetMachine.
This removes all of the pass variants for TTI. There is now a single TTI
*pass* in the Analysis layer. All of the Analysis <-> Target
communication is through the TTI's type erased interface itself. While
the diff is large here, it is nothing more that code motion to make
types available in a header file for use in a different source file
within each target.
I've tried to keep all the doxygen comments and file boilerplate in line
with this move, but let me know if I missed anything.
With this in place, the next step to making TTI work with the new pass
manager is to introduce a really simple new-style analysis that produces
a TTI object via a callback into this routine on the target machine.
Once we have that, we'll have the building blocks necessary to accept
a function argument as well.

type erased interface and a single analysis pass rather than an
extremely complex analysis group.
The end result is that the TTI analysis can contain a type erased
implementation that supports the polymorphic TTI interface. We can build
one from a target-specific implementation or from a dummy one in the IR.
I've also factored all of the code into "mix-in"-able base classes,
including CRTP base classes to facilitate calling back up to the most
specialized form when delegating horizontally across the surface. These
aren't as clean as I would like and I'm planning to work on cleaning
some of this up, but I wanted to start by putting into the right form.
There are a number of reasons for this change, and this particular
design. The first and foremost reason is that an analysis group is
complete overkill, and the chaining delegation strategy was so opaque,
confusing, and high overhead that TTI was suffering greatly for it.
Several of the TTI functions had failed to be implemented in all places
because of the chaining-based delegation making there be no checking of
this. A few other functions were implemented with incorrect delegation.
The message to me was very clear working on this -- the delegation and
analysis group structure was too confusing to be useful here.
The other reason of course is that this is *much* more natural fit for
the new pass manager. This will lay the ground work for a type-erased
per-function info object that can look up the correct subtarget and even
cache it.
Yet another benefit is that this will significantly simplify the
interaction of the pass managers and the TargetMachine. See the future
work below.
The downside of this change is that it is very, very verbose. I'm going
to work to improve that, but it is somewhat an implementation necessity
in C++ to do type erasure. =/ I discussed this design really extensively
with Eric and Hal prior to going down this path, and afterward showed
them the result. No one was really thrilled with it, but there doesn't
seem to be a substantially better alternative. Using a base class and
virtual method dispatch would make the code much shorter, but as
discussed in the update to the programmer's manual and elsewhere,
a polymorphic interface feels like the more principled approach even if
this is perhaps the least compelling example of it. ;]
Ultimately, there is still a lot more to be done here, but this was the
huge chunk that I couldn't really split things out of because this was
the interface change to TTI. I've tried to minimize all the other parts
of this. The follow up work should include at least:
1) Improving the TargetMachine interface by having it directly return
a TTI object. Because we have a non-pass object with value semantics
and an internal type erasure mechanism, we can narrow the interface
of the TargetMachine to *just* do what we need: build and return
a TTI object that we can then insert into the pass pipeline.
2) Make the TTI object be fully specialized for a particular function.
This will include splitting off a minimal form of it which is
sufficient for the inliner and the old pass manager.
3) Add a new pass manager analysis which produces TTI objects from the
target machine for each function. This may actually be done as part
of #2 in order to use the new analysis to implement #2.
4) Work on narrowing the API between TTI and the targets so that it is
easier to understand and less verbose to type erase.
5) Work on narrowing the API between TTI and its clients so that it is
easier to understand and less verbose to forward.
6) Try to improve the CRTP-based delegation. I feel like this code is
just a bit messy and exacerbating the complexity of implementing
the TTI in each target.
Many thanks to Eric and Hal for their help here. I ended up blocked on
this somewhat more abruptly than I expected, and so I appreciate getting
it sorted out very quickly.

This is a refactoring to restructure the single user of performCustomLowering as a specific lowering pass and remove the custom lowering hook entirely.
Before this change, the LowerIntrinsics pass (note to self: rename!) was essentially acting as a pass manager, but without being structured in terms of passes. Instead, it proxied calls to a set of GCStrategies internally. This adds a lot of conceptual complexity (i.e. GCStrategies are stateful!) for very little benefit. Since there's been interest in keeping the ShadowStackGC working, I extracting it's custom lowering pass into a dedicated pass and just added that to the pass order. It will only run for functions which opt-in to that gc.
I wasn't able to find an easy way to preserve the runtime registration of custom lowering functionality. Given that no user of this exists that I'm aware of, I made the choice to just remove that. If someone really cares, we can look at restoring it via dynamic pass registration in the future.
Note that despite the large diff, none of the lowering code actual changes. I added the framing needed to make it a pass and rename the class, but that's it.

abomination.
For starters, this API is incredibly slow. In order to lookup the name
of a pass it must take a memory fence to acquire a pointer to the
managed static pass registry, and then potentially acquire locks while
it consults this registry for information about what passes exist by
that name. This stops the world of LLVMs in your process no matter
how little they cared about the result.
To make this more joyful, you'll note that we are preserving many passes
which *do not exist* any more, or are not even analyses which one might
wish to have be preserved. This means we do all the work only to say
"nope" with no error to the user.
String-based APIs are a *bad idea*. String-based APIs that cannot
produce any meaningful error are an even worse idea. =/
I have a patch that simply removes this API completely, but I'm hesitant
to commit it as I don't really want to perniciously break out-of-tree
users of the old pass manager. I'd rather they just have to migrate to
the new one at some point. If others disagree and would like me to kill
it with fire, just say the word. =]
