As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.
llvm-svn: 358546
This patch makes LICM use `ICFLoopSafetyInfo` that is a smarter version
of LoopSafetyInfo that leverages power of Implicit Control Flow Tracking
to keep track of throwing instructions and give less pessimistic answers
to queries related to throws.
The ICFLoopSafetyInfo itself has been introduced in rL344601. This patch
enables it in LICM only.

Computing this property within the existing walk ensures that the cost is linear with the size of the block. If we did this from within isGuaranteedToExecute, it would be quadratic without some very fancy caching.
This allows us to reliably catch a hoistable instruction within a header which may throw at some point *after* our hoistable instruction. It doesn't do anything for non-header cases, but given how common single block loops are, this seems very worthwhile.

We currently have a hard to solve analysis problem around the order of instructions within a potentially throwing block. We can't cheaply determine whether a given instruction is before the first potential throw in the block. While we're working on that in the background, special case the first instruction within the header.
why this particular special case? Well, headers are guaranteed to execute if the loop does, and it turns out we tend to produce this form in practice.
In a follow on patch, I tend to extend LICM with an alternate approach which works for any instruction in the header before the first throw, but this is the best I can come up with other users of the analysis (such as store promotion.)
Note: I can't show the difference in the analysis result since we're ORing in the expensive instruction walk used by SCEV. Using the full walk is not suitable for a general solution.

Summary:
Instead of keeping a variable indicating whether there are early exits
in the loop. We keep all the early exits. This improves LICM's ability to
move instructions out of the loop based on is-guaranteed-to-execute.
I am going to update compilation time as well soon.

Summary:
Make isGuaranteedToExecute use the
isGuaranteedToTransferExecutionToSuccessor helper, and make that helper
a bit more accurate.
There's a potential performance impact here from assuming that arbitrary
calls might not return. This probably has little impact on loads and
stores to a pointer because most things alias analysis can reason about
are dereferenceable anyway. The other impacts, like less aggressive
hoisting of sdiv by a variable and less aggressive hoisting around
volatile memory operations, are unlikely to matter for real code.
This also impacts SCEV, which uses the same helper. It's a minor
improvement there because we can tell that, for example, memcpy always
returns normally. Strictly speaking, it's also introducing
a bug, but it's not any worse than everywhere else we assume readonly
functions terminate.

In LICM, we have a check for an instruction which is guaranteed to execute and thus can't introduce any new faults if moved to the preheader. To handle a function which might unconditionally throw when first called, we check for any potentially throwing call in the loop and give up.
This is unfortunate when the potentially throwing condition is down a rare path. It prevents essentially all LICM of potentially faulting instructions where the faulting condition is checked outside the loop. It also greatly diminishes the utility of loop unswitching since control dependent instructions - which are now likely in the loops header block - will not be lifted by subsequent LICM runs.
define void @nothrow_header(i64 %x, i64 %y, i1 %cond) {
; CHECK-LABEL: nothrow_header
; CHECK-LABEL: entry
; CHECK: %div = udiv i64 %x, %y
; CHECK-LABEL: loop
; CHECK: call void @use(i64 %div)
entry:
br label %loop
loop: ; preds = %entry, %for.inc
%div = udiv i64 %x, %y
br i1 %cond, label %loop-if, label %exit
loop-if:
call void @use(i64 %div)
br label %loop
exit:
ret void
}
The current patch really only helps with non-memory instructions (i.e. divs, etc..) since the maythrow call down the rare path will be considered to alias an otherwise hoistable load. The one exception is that it does kick in for loads which are known to be invariant without regard to other possible stores, i.e. those marked with either !invarant.load metadata of tbaa 'is constant memory' metadata.
