This change adds a new hook for estimating the cost of vector extracts followed
by zero- and sign-extensions. The motivating example for this change is the
SMOV and UMOV instructions on AArch64. These instructions move data from vector
to general purpose registers while performing the corresponding extension
(sign-extend for SMOV and zero-extend for UMOV) at the same time. For these
operations, TargetTransformInfo can assume the extensions are free and only
report the cost of the vector extract. The SLP vectorizer has been updated to
make use of the new hook.

InlineCost's threshold is multiplied by this value. This lets us adjust

we might want to increase the threshold on targets where calls are

Some SIMD implementations are not IEEE-754 compliant, for example ARM's NEON.
This patch teaches the loop vectorizer to only allow transformations of loops
that either contain no floating-point operations or have enough allowance
flags supporting lack of precision (ex. -ffast-math, Darwin).
For that, the target description now has a method which tells us if the
vectorizer is allowed to handle FP math without falling into unsafe
representations, plus a check on every FP instruction in the candidate loop
to check for the safety flags.
This commit makes LLVM behave like GCC with respect to ARM NEON support, but
it stops short of fixing the underlying problem: sub-normals. Neither GCC
nor LLVM have a flag for allowing sub-normal operations. Before this patch,
GCC only allows it using unsafe-math flags and LLVM allows it by default with
no way to turn it off (short of not using NEON at all).
As a first step, we push this change to make it safe and in sync with GCC.
The second step is to discuss a new sub-normal's flag on both communitues
and come up with a common solution. The third step is to improve the FastMath
flags in LLVM to encode sub-normals and use those flags to restrict NEON FP.
Fixes PR16275.

The behavior of {MIN,MAX}NAN differs from that of {MIN,MAX}NUM when only
one of the inputs is NaN: -NUM will return the non-NaN argument while
-NAN would return NaN.
It is desirable to lower to @llvm.{min,max}num to -NAN if they don't
have a native instruction for -NUM. Notably, ARMv7 NEON's vmin has the
-NAN semantics.
N.B. Of course, it is only safe to do this if the intrinsic call is
marked nnan.

This requires passes that use the AnalysisBase mixin provide a static

private and befriended the CRTP base class (which is the common

I've added documentation to AnalysisBase for why this is necessary and
at what point we can go back to the much simpler system.
This is clearly a better pattern than the extern template as it caught

rather than 'unsigned' for their costs.
For something like costs in particular there is a natural "negative"
value, that of savings or saved cost. As a consequence, there is a lot
of code that subtracts or creates negative values based on cost, all of
which is prone to awkwardness or bugs when dealing with an unsigned
type. Similarly, we *never* want these values to wrap, as that would
cause Very Bad code generation (likely percieved as an infinite loop as
we try to emit over 2^32 instructions or some such insanity).
All around 'int' seems a much better fit for these basic metrics. I've
added asserts to ensure that at least the TTI interface never returns
negative numbers here. If we ever have a use case for negative numbers,
we can remove this, but this way a bug where someone used '-1' to
produce a 'very large' cost will be caught by the assert.
This passes all tests, and is also UBSan clean.
No functional change intended.

Interleaved memory accesses are grouped and vectorized into vector load/store and shufflevector.
E.g. for (i = 0; i < N; i+=2) {
a = A[i]; // load of even element
b = A[i+1]; // load of odd element
... // operations on a, b, c, d
A[i] = c; // store of even element
A[i+1] = d; // store of odd element
}
The loads of even and odd elements are identified as an interleave load group, which will be transfered into vectorized IRs like:
%wide.vec = load <8 x i32>, <8 x i32>* %ptr
%vec.even = shufflevector <8 x i32> %wide.vec, <8 x i32> undef, <4 x i32> <i32 0, i32 2, i32 4, i32 6>
%vec.odd = shufflevector <8 x i32> %wide.vec, <8 x i32> undef, <4 x i32> <i32 1, i32 3, i32 5, i32 7>
The stores of even and odd elements are identified as an interleave store group, which will be transfered into vectorized IRs like:
%interleaved.vec = shufflevector <4 x i32> %vec.even, %vec.odd, <8 x i32> <i32 0, i32 4, i32 1, i32 5, i32 2, i32 6, i32 3, i32 7>

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
rename separately anyways, but let me know what you think.
llvm-svn: 227731
produce it.
This adds a function to the TargetMachine that produces this analysis
via a callback for each function. This in turn faves the way to produce
a *different* TTI per-function with the correct subtarget cached.
I've also done the necessary wiring in the opt tool to thread the target
machine down and make it available to the pass registry so that we can
construct this analysis from a target machine when available.
llvm-svn: 227721
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.
llvm-svn: 227685
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.

Masked Vector Load and Store Intrinsics.
Introduced new target-independent intrinsics in order to support masked vector loads and stores. The loop vectorizer optimizes loops containing conditional memory accesses by generating these intrinsics for existing targets AVX2 and AVX-512. The vectorizer asks the target about availability of masked vector loads and stores.

The statepoint intrinsics are intended to enable precise root tracking through the compiler as to support garbage collectors of all types. The addition of the statepoint intrinsics to LLVM should have no impact on the compilation of any program which does not contain them. There are no side tables created, no extra metadata, and no inhibited optimizations.
A statepoint works by transforming a call site (or safepoint poll site) into an explicit relocation operation. It is the frontend's responsibility (or eventually the safepoint insertion pass we've developed, but that's not part of this patch series) to ensure that any live pointer to a GC object is correctly added to the statepoint and explicitly relocated. The relocated value is just a normal SSA value (as seen by the optimizer), so merges of relocated and unrelocated values are just normal phis. The explicit relocation operation, the fact the statepoint is assumed to clobber all memory, and the optimizers standard semantics ensure that the relocations flow through IR optimizations correctly.
This is the first patch in a small series. This patch contains only the IR parts; the documentation and backend support will be following separately. The entire series can be seen as one combined whole in http://reviews.llvm.org/D5683.
