This patch allows SSE4.1 targets to use (V)PINSRB to create 16i8 vectors by inserting i8 scalars directly into a XMM register instead of merging pairs of i8 scalars into a i16 and using the SSE2 PINSRW instruction.
This allows folding of byte loads and reduces scalar register usage as well.

This patch attempts to fold the shuffling of 'scalar source' inputs - BUILD_VECTOR and SCALAR_TO_VECTOR nodes - if the shuffle node is the only user. This folds away a lot of unnecessary shuffle nodes, and allows quite a bit of constant folding that was being missed.

Currently shuffles may only be combined if they are of the same type, despite the fact that bitcasts are often introduced in between shuffle nodes (e.g. x86 shuffle type widening).
This patch allows a single input shuffle to peek through bitcasts and if the input is another shuffle will merge them, shuffling using the smallest sized type, and re-applying the bitcasts at the inputs and output instead.
Dropped old ShuffleToZext test - this patch removes the use of the zext and vector-zext.ll covers these anyhow.

This is the first step toward removing the entire old vector shuffle
lowering. *Much* more code to delete coming up next.

systematic lowering of v8i16.
This required a slight strategy shift to prefer unpack lowerings in more
places. While this isn't a cut-and-dry win in every case, it is in the
overwhelming majority. There are only a few places where the old
lowering would probably be a touch faster, and then only by a small
margin.
In some cases, this is yet another significant improvement.
llvm-svn: 229859
addition to lowering to trees rooted in an unpack.
This saves shuffles and or registers in many various ways, lets us
handle another class of v4i32 shuffles pre SSE4.1 without domain
crosses, etc.

terribly complex partial blend logic.
This code path was one of the more complex and bug prone when it first
went in and it hasn't faired much better. Ultimately, with the simpler
basis for unpack lowering and support bit-math blending, this is
completely obsolete. In the worst case without this we generate
different but equivalent instructions. However, in many cases we
generate much better code. This is especially true when blends or pshufb
is available.
This does expose one (minor) weakness of the unpack lowering that I'll
try to address.
In case you were wondering, this is actually a big part of what I've
been trying to pull off in the recent string of commits.
llvm-svn: 229853
needed, and significantly improve the SSSE3 path.
This makes the new strategy much more clear. If we can blend, we just go
with that. If we can't blend, we try to permute into an unpack so
that we handle cases where the unpack doing the blend also simplifies
the shuffle. If that fails and we've got SSSE3, we now call into
factored-out pshufb lowering code so that we leverage the fact that
pshufb can set up a blend for us while shuffling. This generates great
code, especially because we *know* we don't have a fast blend at this
point. Finally, we fall back on decomposing into permutes and blends
because we do at least have a bit-math-based blend if we need to use
that.
This pretty significantly improves some of the v8i16 code paths. We
never need to form pshufb for the single-input shuffles because we have
effective target-specific combines to form it there, but we were missing
its effectiveness in the blends.
llvm-svn: 229851
them into permutes and a blend with the generic decomposition logic.
This works really well in almost every case and lets the code only
manage the expansion of a single input into two v8i16 vectors to perform
the actual shuffle. The blend-based merging is often much nicer than the
pack based merging that this replaces. The only place where it isn't we
end up blending between two packs when we could do a single pack. To
handle that case, just teach the v2i64 lowering to handle these blends
by digging out the operands.
With this we're down to only really random permutations that cause an
explosion of instructions.
llvm-svn: 229849
v16i8 shuffles, and replace it with new facilities.
This uses precise patterns to match exact unpacks, and the new
generalized unpack lowering only when we detect a case where we will
have to shuffle both inputs anyways and they terminate in exactly
a blend.
This fixes all of the blend horrors that I uncovered by always lowering
blends through the vector shuffle lowering. It also removes *sooooo*
much of the crazy instruction sequences required for v16i8 lowering
previously. Much cleaner now.
The only "meh" aspect is that we sometimes use pshufb+pshufb+unpck when
it would be marginally nicer to use pshufb+pshufb+por. However, the
difference there is *tiny*. In many cases its a win because we re-use
the pshufb mask. In others, we get to avoid the pshufb entirely. I've
left a FIXME, but I'm dubious we can really do better than this. I'm
actually pretty happy with this lowering now.
For SSE2 this exposes some horrors that were really already there. Those
will have to fixed by changing a different path through the v16i8
lowering.
llvm-svn: 229846
lowering paths. I'm going to be leveraging this to simplify a lot of the
overly complex lowering of v8 and v16 shuffles in pre-SSSE3 modes.
Sadly, this isn't profitable on v4i32 and v2i64. There, the float and
double blending instructions for pre-SSE4.1 are actually pretty good,
and we can't beat them with bit math. And once SSE4.1 comes around we
have direct blending support and this ceases to be relevant.
Also, some of the test cases look odd because the domain fixer
canonicalizes these to floating point domain. That's OK, it'll use the
integer domain when it matters and some day I may be able to update
enough of LLVM to canonicalize the other way.
This restores almost all of the regressions from teaching x86's vselect
lowering to always use vector shuffle lowering for blends. The remaining
problems are because the v16 lowering path is still doing crazy things.
I'll be re-arranging that strategy in more detail in subsequent commits
to finish recovering the performance here.
llvm-svn: 229836
code.
While this didn't have the miscompile (it used MatchLeft consistently)
it missed some cases where it could use right shifts. I've added a test
case Craig Topper came up with to exercise the right shift matching.
This code is really identical between the two. I'm going to merge them
next so that we don't keep two copies of all of this logic.
llvm-svn: 229655
to generically lower blends and is particularly nice because it is
available frome SSE2 onward. This removes a lot of the remaining domain
crossing blends in SSE2 code.
I'm hoping to replace some of the "interleaved" lowering hacks with
something closer to this which should be more principled. First, this
needs to learn how to detect and use other interleavings besides that of
the natural type provided. That will be a follow-up patch though.
llvm-svn: 229378
This blend instruction is ... really lame. The register usage is insane.
As a consequence this is probably only *barely* better than 2 pshufbs
followed by a por, and that mostly because it only has to read from
a single memory location.
However, this doesn't fix as much as I kind of expected, so more to go.
Pretty sure that the ordering and delegation of v16i8 is just really,
really bad.

legality test (essentially, everything is legal).
I'm planning to make this the default shortly, but I'd like to fix
a collection of the bugs it exposes first, and this will let me easily
test them. It also showcases both the improvements and a few of the
regressions triggered by the change. The biggest improvements by far are
the significantly reduced shuffling and domain crossing in the combining
test case. The biggest regressions are missing some clever blending
patterns.

Changes include:
- Using the VEX prefix
- Skipping more detail when we have useful shuffle comments to match
- Matching more shuffle comments that have been added to the printer
(yay!)
- Matching the destination registers of some AVX instructions
- Stripping trailing whitespace that crept in
- Fixing indentation issues
Nothing interesting going on here. I'm just trying really hard to ensure
these changes don't show up in the diffs with actual changes to the

This patch builds on http://reviews.llvm.org/D5598 to perform byte rotation shuffles (lowerVectorShuffleAsByteRotate) on pre-SSSE3 (palignr) targets - pre-SSSE3 is only enabled on i8 and i16 vector targets where it is a more definite performance gain.
I've also added a separate byte shift shuffle (lowerVectorShuffleAsByteShift) that makes use of the ability of the SLLDQ/SRLDQ instructions to implicitly shift in zero bytes to avoid the need to create a zero register if we had used palignr.

getTargetConstant should only be used when you can guarantee the instruction
selected will be able to cope with the raw value. BUILD_VECTOR is rather too
generic for this so we should use getConstant instead. In that case, an
instruction can still consume the constant, but if it doesn't it'll be
materialised through its own round of ISel.
Should fix PR21352.

new vector shuffle lowering.
This is loosely based on a patch by Marius Wachtler to the PR (thanks!).
I refactored it a bi to use std::count_if and a mutable array ref but
the core idea was exactly right. I also added some direct testing of
this case.
I believe PR21137 is now the only remaining regression.

and MOVSD nodes for single element vector inserts.
This is particularly important because a number of patterns in the
backend detect these patterns and leverage them to simplify things. It
also fixes quite a few of the insertion bad code examples. However, it
regresses a specific area: when available, blendps and blendpd are
*dramatically* faster than movss and movsd respectively. But it doesn't
really work to form the blend logic first because the blends *aren't* as
crazy efficient when the data is coming from memory anyways, and thus
will have a movss or movsd regardless. Also, doing that would block
a bunch of the patterns that this is designed to hit.
So my plan is to go into the patterns for lowering MOVSS and MOVSD and
lower them via blends when available. However that's a pretty invasive
restructuring so it will need to be a follow-up patch.
I have already gone into the patterns to lower MOVSS and MOVSD from
memory using MOVLPD, etc. Without that, several of the test cases
I already have regress.

cases.
While clearly we don't need the AVX vector width, these ISA extensions
often cause us to select different instructions and we should cover them
even with the narrow vector width.
Also, while here, nuke the stress_test2 contents. There is no reason to
try to FileCheck this entire body when it is mostly a test for
successfully surviving the code generator.

updating script so that they are more thorough and consistent.
Specific fixes here include:
- Actually test VEX-encoded AVX mnemonics.
- Actually use an SSE 4.1 run to test SSE 4.1 features!
- Correctly check instructions sequences from the start of the function.
- Elide the shuffle operands and comment designator in a consistent way.
- Test all of the architectures instead of just the ones I was motivated
to manually author.
I've gone back through and fixed up any egregious issues I spotted. Let
me know if I missed something you really dislike.
One downside to this is that we're now not as diligently using FileCheck
variables for registers. I would be much more concerned with this if we
had larger register usage, but there just aren't that interesting of
register choices here and most of the registers are constrained by the
ABI. Ultimately, I don't think this is likely to be the maintenance
burden for these tests and updating them again should be staright
forward.

of widening masks.
We can't widen a zeroing mask unless both elements that would be merged
are either zeroed or undef. This is the only way to widen a mask if it
has a zeroed element.
Also clean up the code here by ordering the checks in a more logical way
and by using the symoblic values for undef and zero. I'm actually torn
on using the symbolic values because the existing code is littered with
the assumption that -1 is undef, and moreover that entries '< 0' are the
special entries. While that works with the values given to these
constants, using the symbolic constants actually makes it a bit more
opaque why this is the case.

that managed to elude all of my fuzz testing historically. =/
Something changed to allow this code path to actually be exercised and
it was doing bad things. It is especially heavily exercised by the
patterns that emerge when doing AVX shuffles that end up lowered through
the 128-bit code path.

undef in the shuffle mask. This shows up when we're printing comments
during lowering and we still have an IR-level constant hanging around
that models undef.
A nice consequence of this is *much* prettier test cases where the undef
lanes actually show up as undef rather than as a particular set of
values. This also allows us to print shuffle comments in cases that use
undef such as the recently added variable VPERMILPS lowering. Now those
test cases have nice shuffle comments attached with their details.
The shuffle lowering for PSHUFB has been augmented to use undef, and the
shuffle combining has been augmented to comprehend it.

lowering to support both anyext and zext and to custom lower for many
different microarchitectures.
Using this allows us to get *exactly* the right code for zext and anyext

The new SSE2 test case added I refused to add before this because it was
sooooo muny instructions.

to the new vector shuffle lowering code.
This allows us to emit PMOVZX variants consistently for patterns where
it is a viable lowering. This instruction is both fast and allows us to
fold loads into it. This only hooks the new lowering up for i16 and i8
element widths, mostly so I could manage the change to the tests. I'll
add the i32 one next, although it is significantly less interesting.
One thing to note is that we already had some tests for these patterns
but those tests had far less horrible instructions. The problem is that
those tests weren't checking the strict start and end of the instruction
sequence. =[ As a consequence something changed in the lowering making
us generate *TERRIBLE* code for these patterns in SSE2 through SSSE3.
I've consolidated all of the tests and spelled out the madness that we
currently emit for these shuffles. I'm going to try to figure out what
has gone wrong here.

PALIGNR. This just adds it to the v8i16 and v16i8 lowering steps where
it is completely unmatched. It also introduces the logic for detecting
rotation shuffle masks even in the presence of single input or blend
masks and arbitrarily undef lanes.
I've added fairly comprehensive tests for the matching logic in v8i16
because the tests at that size are much easier to write and manage.
I've not checked the SSE2 code generated for these tests because the
code is *horrible*. It is absolute madness. Testing it will just make
the test brittle without giving any interesting improvements in the
correctness confidence.

This combine is essentially combining target-specific nodes back into target
independent nodes that it "knows" will be combined yet again by a target
independent DAG combine into a different set of target-independent nodes that
are legal (not custom though!) and thus "ok". This seems... deeply flawed. The
crux of the problem is that we don't combine un-legalized shuffles that are
introduced by legalizing other operations, and thus we don't see a very
profitable combine opportunity. So the backend just forces the input to that
combine to re-appear.
However, for this to work, the conditions detected to re-form the unlegalized
nodes must be *exactly* right. Previously, failing this would have caused poor
code (if you're lucky) or a crasher when we failed to select instructions.
After r215611 we would fall back into the legalizer. In some cases, this just
"fixed" the crasher by produces bad code. But in the test case added it caused
the legalizer and the dag combiner to iterate forever.
The fix is to make the alignment checking in the x86 side of things match the
alignment checking in the generic DAG combine exactly. This isn't really a
satisfying or principled fix, but it at least make the code work as intended.
It also highlights that it would be nice to detect the availability of under
aligned loads for a given type rather than bailing on this optimization. I've
left a FIXME to document this.
Original commit message for r215611 which covers the rest of the chang:
[SDAG] Fix a case where we would iteratively legalize a node during
combining by replacing it with something else but not re-process the
node afterward to remove it.
In a truly remarkable stroke of bad luck, this would (in the test case
attached) end up getting some other node combined into it without ever
getting re-processed. By adding it back on to the worklist, in addition
to deleting the dead nodes more quickly we also ensure that if it
*stops* being dead for any reason it makes it back through the
legalizer. Without this, the test case will end up failing during
instruction selection due to an and node with a type we don't have an
instruction pattern for.
It took many million runs of the shuffle fuzz tester to find this.
