Even when we don't create a remainder loop (that is, when we unroll by 2), we
may duplicate nested loops into the remainder. This is complicated by the fact
the remainder may itself be either inserted into an outer loop, or at the top
level. In the latter case, we may need to create new top-level loops.

We do this by reconstructing the newly added loops after the unroll

of the unrolling infrastructure.
I've enabled some extra assertions in the LPM to try and catch issues

the latter to the Transforms library.
While the loop PM uses an analysis to form the IR units, the current
plan is to have the PM itself establish and enforce both loop simplified
form and LCSSA. This would be a layering violation in the analysis
library.
Fundamentally, the idea behind the loop PM is to *transform* loops in
addition to running passes over them, so it really seemed like the most
natural place to sink this was into the transforms library.
We can't just move *everything* because we also have loop analyses that
rely on a subset of the invariants. So this patch splits the the loop
infrastructure into the analysis management that has to be part of the
analysis library, and the transform-aware pass manager.
This also required splitting the loop analyses' printer passes out to
the transforms library, which makes sense to me as running these will
transform the code into LCSSA in theory.
I haven't split the unittest though because testing one component
without the other seems nearly intractable.

arguments much like the CGSCC pass manager.
This is a major redesign following the pattern establish for the CGSCC layer to
support updates to the set of loops during the traversal of the loop nest and
to support invalidation of analyses.
An additional significant burden in the loop PM is that so many passes require
access to a large number of function analyses. Manually ensuring these are
cached, available, and preserved has been a long-standing burden in LLVM even
with the help of the automatic scheduling in the old pass manager. And it made
the new pass manager extremely unweildy. With this design, we can package the
common analyses up while in a function pass and make them immediately available
to all the loop passes. While in some cases this is unnecessary, I think the
simplicity afforded is worth it.
This does not (yet) address loop simplified form or LCSSA form, but those are
the next things on my radar and I have a clear plan for them.
While the patch is very large, most of it is either mechanically updating loop
passes to the new API or the new testing for the loop PM. The code for it is
reasonably compact.
I have not yet updated all of the loop passes to correctly leverage the update
mechanisms demonstrated in the unittests. I'll do that in follow-up patches
along with improved FileCheck tests for those passes that ensure things work in
more realistic scenarios. In many cases, there isn't much we can do with these
until the loop simplified form and LCSSA form are in place.

Summary:
The current loop complete unroll algorithm checks if unrolling complete will reduce the runtime by a certain percentage. If yes, it will apply a fixed boosting factor to the threshold (by discounting cost). The problem for this approach is that the threshold abruptly. This patch makes the boosting factor a function of runtime reduction percentage, capped by a fixed threshold. In this way, the threshold changes continuously.
The patch also simplified the code by reducing one parameter in UP.
The patch only affects code-gen of two speccpu2006 benchmark:

This implements PGO-driven loop peeling.
The basic idea is that when the average dynamic trip-count of a loop is known,
based on PGO, to be low, we can expect a performance win by peeling off the
first several iterations of that loop.
Unlike unrolling based on a known trip count, or a trip count multiple, this
doesn't save us the conditional check and branch on each iteration. However,
it does allow us to simplify the straight-line code we get (constant-folding,
etc.). This is important given that we know that we will usually only hit this
code, and not the actual loop.
This is currently disabled by default.

When we have a loop with a known upper bound on the number of iterations, and
furthermore know that either the number of iterations will be either exactly
that upper bound or zero, then we can fully unroll up to that upper bound
keeping only the first loop test to check for the zero iteration case.
Most of the work here is in plumbing this 'max-or-zero' information from the
part of scalar evolution where it's detected through to loop unrolling. I've
also gone for the safe default of 'false' everywhere but howManyLessThans which
could probably be improved.

refactoring work in SCEV to prevent duplicating code.
The feature of using the upper bound is enabled under the same circumstance

increases compile time for no performance benefit (performance of those
loops is improved, but it doesn't matter since they are cold).

Summary:
...loop after the last iteration.
This is really hard to do correctly. The core problem is that we need to
model liveness through the induction PHIs from iteration to iteration in
order to get the correct results, and we need to correctly de-duplicate
the common subgraphs of instructions feeding some subset of the
induction PHIs. All of this can be driven either from a side effect at
some iteration or from the loop values used after the loop finishes.
This patch implements this by storing the forward-propagating analysis
of each instruction in a cache to recall whether it was free and whether
it has become live and thus counted toward the total unroll cost. Then,
at each sink for a value in the loop, we recursively walk back through
every value that feeds the sink, including looping back through the
iterations as needed, until we have marked the entire input graph as
live. Because we cache this, we never visit instructions more than twice
-- once when we analyze them and put them into the cache, and once when
we count their cost towards the unrolled loop. Also, because the cache
is only two bits and because we are dealing with relatively small
iteration counts, we can store all of this very densely in memory to
avoid this from becoming an excessively slow analysis.
The code here is still pretty gross. I would appreciate suggestions
about better ways to factor or split this up, I've stared too long at
the algorithmic side to really have a good sense of what the design
should probably look at.
Also, it might seem like we should do all of this bottom-up, but I think
that is a red herring. Specifically, the simplification power is *much*
greater working top-down. We can forward propagate very effectively,
even across strange and interesting recurrances around the backedge.
Because we use data to propagate, this doesn't cause a state space
explosion. Doing this level of constant folding, etc, would be very
expensive to do bottom-up because it wouldn't be until the last moment
that you could collapse everything. The current solution is essentially
a top-down simplification with a bottom-up cost accounting which seems
to get the best of both worlds. It makes the simplification incremental
and powerful while leaving everything dead until we *know* it is needed.
Finally, a core property of this approach is its *monotonicity*. At all
times, the current UnrolledCost is a conservatively low estimate. This
ensures that we will never early-exit from the analysis due to exceeding
a threshold when if we had continued, the cost would have gone back
below the threshold. These kinds of bugs can cause incredibly hard to
track down random changes to behavior.
We could use a techinque similar (but much simpler) within the inliner
as well to avoid considering speculated code in the inline cost.

This patch implements a optimization bisect feature, which will allow optimizations to be selectively disabled at compile time in order to track down test failures that are caused by incorrect optimizations.
The bisection is enabled using a new command line option (-opt-bisect-limit). Individual passes that may be skipped call the OptBisect object (via an LLVMContext) to see if they should be skipped based on the bisect limit. A finer level of control (disabling individual transformations) can be managed through an addition OptBisect method, but this is not yet used.
The skip checking in this implementation is based on (and replaces) the skipOptnoneFunction check. Where that check was being called, a new call has been inserted in its place which checks the bisect limit and the optnone attribute. A new function call has been added for module and SCC passes that behaves in a similar way.

1. Add FullUnrollMaxCount option that works like MaxCount, but also limits
the unroll count for fully unrolled loops. So if a loop has an iteration
count over this, it won't fully unroll.
2. Add CLI options for MaxCount and the new option, so they can be tested
(plus a test).
3. Make partial unrolling obey MaxCount.
An example use-case (the out of tree one this is originally designed for) is
a target’s TTI can analyze a loop and decide on a max unroll count separate
from the size threshold, e.g. based on register pressure, then constrain
LoopUnroll to not exceed that, regardless of the size of the unrolled loop.
llvm-svn: 265562
Summary:
Specifically, when we perform runtime loop unrolling of a loop that
contains a convergent op, we can only unroll k times, where k divides
the loop trip multiple.
Without this change, we'll happily unroll e.g. the following loop
for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) {
if (i == 0) convergent_op();
foo();
}
into
int i = 0;
if (N % 2 == 1) {
convergent_op();
foo();
++i;
}
for (; i < N - 1; i += 2) {
if (i == 0) convergent_op();
foo();
foo();
}.
This is unsafe, because we've just added a control-flow dependency to
the convergent op in the prelude.
In general, runtime unrolling loops that contain convergent ops is safe
only if we don't have emit a prelude, which occurs when the unroll count
divides the trip multiple.

routine.
We were getting this wrong in small ways and generally being very
inconsistent about it across loop passes. Instead, let's have a common
place where we do this. One minor downside is that this will require
some analyses like SCEV in more places than they are strictly needed.
However, this seems benign as these analyses are complete no-ops, and
without this consistency we can in many cases end up with the legacy
pass manager scheduling deciding to split up a loop pass pipeline in
order to run the function analysis half-way through. It is very, very
annoying to fix these without just being very pedantic across the board.
The only loop passes I've not updated here are ones that use
AU.setPreservesAll() such as IVUsers (an analysis) and the pass printer.
They seemed less relevant.
With this patch, almost all of the problems in PR24804 around loop pass
pipelines are fixed. The one remaining issue is that we run simplify-cfg
and instcombine in the middle of the loop pass pipeline. We've recently
added some loop variants of these passes that would seem substantially
cleaner to use, but this at least gets us much closer to the previous
state. Notably, the seven loop pass managers is down to three.
I've not updated the loop passes using LoopAccessAnalysis because that
analysis hasn't been fully wired into LoopSimplify/LCSSA, and it isn't
clear that those transforms want to support those forms anyways. They
all run late anyways, so this is harmless. Similarly, LSR is left alone
because it already carefully manages its forms and doesn't need to get
fused into a single loop pass manager with a bunch of other loop passes.
LoopReroll didn't use loop simplified form previously, and I've updated
the test case to match the trivially different output.
Finally, I've also factored all the pass initialization for the passes
that use this technique as well, so that should be done regularly and
reliably.

and Ben for help thinking about it as well!

A large number of loop utility functions take a `Pass *` and reach
into it to find out which analyses to preserve. There are a number of
problems with this:
- The APIs have access to pretty well any Pass state they want, so
it's hard to tell what they may or may not do.
- Other APIs have copied these and pass around a `Pass *` even though
they don't even use it. Some of these just hand a nullptr to the API
since the callers don't even have a pass available.
- Passes in the new pass manager don't work like the current ones, so
the APIs can't be used as is there.
Instead, we should explicitly thread the analysis results that we
actually care about through these APIs. This is both simpler and more
reusable.

This change makes ScalarEvolution a stand-alone object and just produces
one from a pass as needed. Making this work well requires making the
object movable, using references instead of overwritten pointers in
a number of places, and other refactorings.
I've also wired it up to the new pass manager and added a RUN line to
a test to exercise it under the new pass manager. This includes basic
printing support much like with other analyses.
But there is a big and somewhat scary change here. Prior to this patch
ScalarEvolution was never *actually* invalidated!!! Re-running the pass
just re-wired up the various other analyses and didn't remove any of the
existing entries in the SCEV caches or clear out anything at all. This
might seem OK as everything in SCEV that can uses ValueHandles to track
updates to the values that serve as SCEV keys. However, this still means
that as we ran SCEV over each function in the module, we kept
accumulating more and more SCEVs into the cache. At the end, we would
have a SCEV cache with every value that we ever needed a SCEV for in the
entire module!!! Yowzers. The releaseMemory routine would dump all of
this, but that isn't realy called during normal runs of the pipeline as
far as I can see.
To make matters worse, there *is* actually a key that we don't update
with value handles -- there is a map keyed off of Loop*s. Because
LoopInfo *does* release its memory from run to run, it is entirely
possible to run SCEV over one function, then over another function, and
then lookup a Loop* from the second function but find an entry inserted
for the first function! Ouch.
To make matters still worse, there are plenty of updates that *don't*
trip a value handle. It seems incredibly unlikely that today GVN or
another pass that invalidates SCEV can update values in *just* such
a way that a subsequent run of SCEV will incorrectly find lookups in
a cache, but it is theoretically possible and would be a nightmare to
debug.
With this refactoring, I've fixed all this by actually destroying and
recreating the ScalarEvolution object from run to run. Technically, this
could increase the amount of malloc traffic we see, but then again it is
also technically correct. ;] I don't actually think we're suffering from
tons of malloc traffic from SCEV because if we were, the fact that we
never clear the memory would seem more likely to have come up as an
actual problem before now. So, I've made the simple fix here. If in fact
there are serious issues with too much allocation and deallocation,
I can work on a clever fix that preserves the allocations (while
clearing the data) between each run, but I'd prefer to do that kind of
optimization with a test case / benchmark that shows why we need such
cleverness (and that can test that we actually make it faster). It's
possible that this will make some things faster by making the SCEV
caches have higher locality (due to being significantly smaller) so
until there is a clear benchmark, I think the simple change is best.

This change adds the unroll metadata "llvm.loop.unroll.enable" which directs
the optimizer to unroll a loop fully if the trip count is known at compile time, and
unroll partially if the trip count is not known at compile time. This differs from
"llvm.loop.unroll.full" which explicitly does not unroll a loop if the trip count is not
known at compile time.
The "llvm.loop.unroll.enable" is intended to be added for loops annotated with
"#pragma unroll".

Create wrapper methods in the Function class for the OptimizeForSize and MinSize
attributes. We want to hide the logic of "or'ing" them together when optimizing
just for size (-Os).
Currently, we are not consistent about this and rely on a front-end to always set
OptimizeForSize (-Os) if MinSize (-Oz) is on. Thus, there are 18 FIXME changes here
that should be added as follow-on patches with regression tests.
This patch is NFC-intended: it just replaces existing direct accesses of the attributes
by the equivalent wrapper call.

through PHI nodes across iterations.
This patch teaches the new advanced loop unrolling heuristics to propagate
constants into the loop from the preheader and around the backedge after
simulating each iteration. This lets us brute force solve simple recurrances
that aren't modeled effectively by SCEV. It also makes it more clear why we
need to process the loop in-order rather than bottom-up which might otherwise
make much more sense (for example, for DCE).
This came out of an attempt I'm making to develop a principled way to account
for dead code in the unroll estimation. When I implemented
a forward-propagating version of that it produced incorrect results due to
failing to propagate *cost* between loop iterations through the PHI nodes, and
it occured to me we really should at least propagate simplifications across
those edges, and it is quite easy thanks to the loop being in canonical and
LCSSA form.

Summary:
Resolving a branch allows us to ignore blocks that won't be executed, and thus make our estimate more accurate.
This patch is intended to be applied after D10205 (though it could be applied independently).

Enable runtime unrolling for loops with unroll count metadata ("#pragma unroll N")
and a runtime trip count. Also, do not unroll loops with unroll full metadata if the
loop has a runtime loop count. Previously, such loops would be unrolled with a
very large threshold (pragma-unroll-threshold) if runtime unrolled happened to be
enabled resulting in a very large (and likely unwise) unroll factor.

Summary:
Using some SCEV functionality helped to entirely remove SCEVCache class and FindConstantPointers SCEV visitor.
Also, this makes the code more universal - I'll take advandate of it in next patches where I start handling additional types of instructions.
Test Plan: Tests would be submitted in subsequent patches.

Summary:
canUnrollCompletely takes `unsigned` values for `UnrolledCost` and
`RolledDynamicCost` but is passed in `uint64_t`s that are silently
truncated. Because of this, when `UnrolledSize` is a large integer
that has a small remainder with UINT32_MAX, LLVM tries to completely
unroll loops with high trip counts.

The new naming is (to me) much easier to understand. Here is a summary
of the new state of the world:
- '*Threshold' is the threshold for full unrolling. It is measured
against the estimated unrolled cost as computed by getUserCost in TTI
(or CodeMetrics, etc). We will exceed this threshold when unrolling
loops where unrolling exposes a significant degree of simplification
of the logic within the loop.
- '*PercentDynamicCostSavedThreshold' is the percentage of the loop's
estimated dynamic execution cost which needs to be saved by unrolling
to apply a discount to the estimated unrolled cost.
- '*DynamicCostSavingsDiscount' is the discount applied to the estimated
unrolling cost when the dynamic savings are expected to be high.
When actually analyzing the loop, we now produce both an estimated
unrolled cost, and an estimated rolled cost. The rolled cost is notably
a dynamic estimate based on our analysis of the expected execution of
each iteration.
While we're still working to build up the infrastructure for making
these estimates, to me it is much more clear *how* to make them better
when they have reasonably descriptive names. For example, we may want to
apply estimated (from heuristics or profiles) dynamic execution weights
to the *dynamic* cost estimates. If we start doing that, we would also
need to track the static unrolled cost and the dynamic unrolled cost, as
only the latter could reasonably be weighted by profile information.
This patch is sadly not without functionality change for the new unroll
analysis logic. Buried in the heuristic management were several things
that surprised me. For example, we never subtracted the optimized
instruction count off when comparing against the unroll heursistics!
I don't know if this just got lost somewhere along the way or what, but
with the new accounting of things, this is much easier to keep track of
and we use the post-simplification cost estimate to compare to the
thresholds, and use the dynamic cost reduction ratio to select whether
we can exceed the baseline threshold.
The old values of these flags also don't necessarily make sense. My
impression is that none of these thresholds or discounts have been tuned
yet, and so they're just arbitrary placehold numbers. As such, I've not
bothered to adjust for the fact that this is now a discount and not
a tow-tier threshold model. We need to tune all these values once the
logic is ready to be enabled.

Also, make it a much more generic SCEV cache, which today exposes only
a reduced GEP model description but could be extended in the future to
do other profitable caching of SCEV information.

accumulating estimated cost, and other loop-centric logic from the logic
used to analyze instructions in a particular iteration.
This makes the visitor very narrow in scope -- all it does is visit
instructions, update a map of simplified values, and return whether it
is able to optimize away a particular instruction.
The two cost metrics are now returned as an optional struct. When the
optional is left unengaged, there is no information about the unrolled
cost of the loop, when it is engaged the cost metrics are available to
run against the thresholds.
No functionality changed.

simplified model for use simulating each iteration into a separate
helper function that just returns the cache.
Building this cache had nothing to do with the rest of the unroll
analysis and so this removes an unnecessary coupling, etc. It should
also make it easier to think about the concept of providing fast cached
access to basic SCEV models as an orthogonal concept to the overall
unroll simulation.
I'd really like to see this kind of caching logic folded into SCEV
itself, it seems weird for us to provide it at this layer rather than
making repeated queries into SCEV fast all on their own.

This reduces code duplication a bit and will also pave the way for
a better separation between the visitation algorithm and the unroll
analysis.

checking and make the cache faster and smaller.
I had thought that using an APInt here would be useful, but I think
I was just wrong. Notably, we don't have to do any fancy overflow
checking, we can just bound the values as quite small and do the math in
a higher precision integer. I've switched to a signed integer so that
UBSan will even point out if we ever have integer overflow. I've added
various asserts to try to catch things as well and hoisted the overflow
checks so that we just leave the too-large offsets out of the SCEV-GEP
cache. This makes the value in the cache quite a bit smaller which is
probably worthwhile.
No functionality changed here (for trip counts under 1 billion).
