and expose the necessary hooks in the API directly.
This makes it much cleaner for example to log the usage of a pass
manager from a library. It also makes it more obvious that this
functionality isn't "optional" or "asserts-only" for the pass manager.
llvm-svn: 225841
the generic functionality of the pass managers themselves.
In the new infrastructure, the pass "manager" isn't actually interesting
at all. It just pipelines a single chunk of IR through N passes. We
don't need to know anything about the IR or the passes to do this really
and we can replace the 3 implementations of the exact same functionality
with a single generic PassManager template, complementing the single
generic AnalysisManager template.
I've left typedefs in place to give convenient names to the various
obvious instantiations of the template.
With this, I think I've nuked almost all of the redundant logic in the
managers, and I think the overall design is actually simpler for having
single templates that clearly indicate there is no special logic here.
The logging is made somewhat more annoying by this change, but I don't
think the difference is worth having heavy-weight traits to help log
things.
llvm-svn: 225783
template.
This consolidates three copies of nearly the same core logic. It adds
"complexity" to the ModuleAnalysisManager in that it makes it possible
to share a ModuleAnalysisManager across multiple modules... But it does
so by deleting *all of the code*, so I'm OK with that. This will
naturally make fixing bugs in this code much simpler, etc.
The only down side here is that we have to use 'typename' and 'this->'
in various places, and the implementation is lifted into the header.
I'll take that for the code size reduction.
The convenient names are still typedef-ed and used throughout so that
users can largely ignore this aspect of the implementation.
The follow-up change to this will do the exact same refactoring for the
PassManagers. =D
It turns out that the interesting different code is almost entirely in
the adaptors. At the end, that should be essentially all that is left.

so has clang-format. Notably, this fixes a bunch of formatting in the
CGSCC pass manager side of things that has been improved in clang-format
recently.
llvm-svn: 225743
templated interface.
So far, every single IR unit I can come up with has address-identity.
That is, when two units of IR are both active in LLVM, their addresses
will be distinct of the IR is distinct. This is clearly true for
Modules, Functions, BasicBlocks, and Instructions. It turns out that the
only practical way to make the CGSCC stuff work the way we want is to
make it true for SCCs as well. I expect this pattern to continue.
When first designing the pass manager code, I kept this dimension of
freedom in the type parameters, essentially allowing for a wrapper-type
whose address did not form identity. But that really no longer makes
sense and is making the code more complex or subtle for no gain. If we
ever have an actual use case for this, we can figure out what makes
sense then and there. It will be better because then we will have the
actual example in hand.
While the simplifications afforded in this patch are fairly small
(mostly sinking the '&' out of many type parameters onto a few
interfaces), it would have become much more pronounced with subsequent
changes. I have a sequence of changes that will completely remove the
code duplication that currently exists between all of the pass managers
and analysis managers. =] Should make things much cleaner and avoid bug
fixing N times for the N pass managers.
llvm-svn: 225723
passes too many time.
I think this is actually the issue that someone raised with me at the
developer's meeting and in an email, but that we never really got to the
bottom of. Having all the testing utilities made it much easier to dig
down and uncover the core issue.
When a pass manager is running many passes over a single function, we
need it to invalidate the analyses between each run so that they can be
re-computed as needed. We also need to track the intersection of
preserved higher-level analyses across all the passes that we run (for
example, if there is one module analysis which all the function analyses
preserve, we want to track that and propagate it). Unfortunately, this
interacted poorly with any enclosing pass adaptor between two IR units.
It would see the intersection of preserved analyses, and need to
invalidate any other analyses, but some of the un-preserved analyses
might have already been invalidated *and recomputed*! We would fail to
propagate the fact that the analysis had already been invalidated.
The solution to this struck me as really strange at first, but the more
I thought about it, the more natural it seemed. After a nice discussion
with Duncan about it on IRC, it seemed even nicer. The idea is that
invalidating an analysis *causes* it to be preserved! Preserving the
lack of result is trivial. If it is recomputed, great. Until something
*else* invalidates it again, we're good.
The consequence of this is that the invalidate methods on the analysis
manager which operate over many passes now consume their
PreservedAnalyses object, update it to "preserve" every analysis pass to
which it delivers an invalidation (regardless of whether the pass
chooses to be removed, or handles the invalidation itself by updating
itself). Then we return this augmented set from the invalidate routine,
letting the pass manager take the result and use the intersection of
*that* across each pass run to compute the final preserved set. This
accounts for all the places where the early invalidation of an analysis
has already "preserved" it for a future run.
I've beefed up the testing and adjusted the assertions to show that we
no longer repeatedly invalidate or compute the analyses across nested
pass managers.
llvm-svn: 225333
a specific analysis result.
This is quite handy to test things, and will also likely be very useful
for debugging issues. You could narrow down pass validation failures by
walking these invalidate pass runs up and down the pass pipeline, etc.
I've added support to the pass pipeline parsing to be able to create one
of these for any analysis pass desired.
Just adding this class uncovered one latent bug where the
AnalysisManager CRTP base class had a hard-coded Module type rather than
using IRUnitT.
I've also added tests for invalidation and caching of analyses in
a basic way across all the pass managers. These in turn uncovered two
more bugs where we failed to correctly invalidate an analysis -- its
results were invalidated but the key for re-running the pass was never
cleared and so it was never re-run. Quite nasty. I'm very glad to debug
this here rather than with a full system.
Also, yes, the naming here is horrid. I'm going to update some of the
names to be slightly less awful shortly. But really, I've no "good"
ideas for naming. I'll be satisfied if I can get it to "not bad".
llvm-svn: 225246
when all are being preserved.
We want to short-circuit this for a couple of reasons. One, I don't
really want passes to grow a dependency on actually receiving their
invalidate call when they've been preserved. I'm thinking about removing
this entirely. But more importantly, preserving everything is likely to
be the common case in a lot of scenarios, and it would be really good to
bypass all of the invalidation and preservation machinery there.
Avoiding calling N opaque functions to try to invalidate things that are
by definition still valid seems important. =]
This wasn't really inpsired by much other than seeing the spam in the
logging for analyses, but it seems better ot get it checked in rather
than forgetting about it.
llvm-svn: 225163
manager.
This starts to allow us to test analyses more easily, but it's really
only the beginning. Some of the code here is still untestable without
manual changes to create analysis passes, but I wanted to factor it into
a small of chunks as possible.
Next up in order to be able to test things are, in no particular order:
- No-op analyses passes so we don't have to use real ones to exercise
the pass maneger itself.
- Automatic way of generating dummy passes that require an analysis be
run, including a variant that calls a 'print' method on a pass to make
it even easier to print out the results of an analysis.
- Dummy passes that invalidate all analyses for their IR unit so we can
test invalidation and re-runs.
- Automatic way to print each analysis pass as it is re-run.
- Automatic but optional verification of analysis passes everywhere
possible.
I'm not claiming I'll get to all of these immediately, but that's what
is in the pipeline at some stage. I'm fleshing out exactly what I need
and what to prioritize by working on converting analyses and then trying
to test the conversion. =]
llvm-svn: 225162
units.
This was debated back and forth a bunch, but using references is now
clearly cleaner. Of all the code written using pointers thus far, in
only one place did it really make more sense to have a pointer. In most
cases, this just removes immediate dereferencing from the code. I think
it is much better to get errors on null IR units earlier, potentially
at compile time, than to delay it.
Most notably, the legacy pass manager uses references for its routines
and so as more and more code works with both, the use of pointers was
likely to become really annoying. I noticed this when I ported the
domtree analysis over and wrote the entire thing with references only to
have it fail to compile. =/ It seemed better to switch now than to
delay. We can, of course, revisit this is we learn that references are
really problematic in the API.
llvm-svn: 225145
Sometimes a LLVM compilation may take more time then a client would like to
wait for. The problem is that it is not possible to safely suspend the LLVM
thread from the outside. When the timing is bad it might be possible that the
LLVM thread holds a global mutex and this would block any progress in any other
thread.
This commit adds a new yield callback function that can be registered with a
context. LLVM will try to yield by calling this callback function, but there is
no guaranteed frequency. LLVM will only do so if it can guarantee that
suspending the thread won't block any forward progress in other LLVM contexts
in the same process.
Once the client receives the call back it can suspend the thread safely and
resume it at another time.

became empty. This would manifest later as an assert failure due to
a non-empty list map but an empty result map. This doesn't easily
manifest with just the module pass manager and the function pass
manager, but the next commit will add the CGSCC pass manager that hits
this assert immediately.

it is available. Also make the move semantics sufficiently correct to
tolerate move-only passes, as the PassManagers *are* move-only passes.

I think this was just over-eagerness on my part. The analysis results
need to often be non-const because they need to (in some cases at least)
be updated by the transformation pass in order to remain correct. It
also makes lazy analyses (a common case) needlessly annoying to write in
order to make their entire state mutable.

No support for analyses here, that will come later. This already helps
show parts of the opt commandline integration that isn't working. Tests

of the two analysis managers into a CRTP base class that can be shared
and re-used in building any analysis manager. This will in turn simplify
adding yet another analysis manager to the system.
The base class provides all of the interface sugar for the analysis
manager delegating the functionality back through DerivedT methods which
operate on simple pass IDs. It also provides the pass registration,
storage, and lookup system which is common across the various
formulations of analysis managers.
llvm-svn: 195747
proxy. This lets a function pass query a module analysis manager.
However, the interface is const to indicate that only cached results can
be safely queried.
With this, I think the new pass manager is largely functionally complete
for modules and analyses. Still lots to test, and need to generalize to
SCCs and Loops, and need to build an adaptor layer to support the use of
existing Pass objects in the new managers.
llvm-svn: 195538
results.
This is the last piece of infrastructure needed to effectively support
querying *up* the analysis layers. The next step will be to introduce
a proxy which provides access to those layers with appropriate use of
const to direct queries to the safe interface.
llvm-svn: 195525
one function's analyses are invalidated at a time. Also switch the
preservation of the proxy to *fully* preserve the lower (function)
analyses.
Combined, this gets both upward and downward analysis invalidation to
a point I'm happy with:
- A function pass invalidates its function analyses, and its parent's
module analyses.
- A module pass invalidates all of its functions' analyses including the
set of which functions are in the module.
- A function pass can preserve a module analysis pass.
- If all function passes preserve a module analysis pass, that
preservation persists. If any doesn't the module analysis is
invalidated.
- A module pass can opt into managing *all* function analysis
invalidation itself or *none*.
- The conservative default is none, and the proxy takes the maximally
conservative approach that works even if the set of functions has
changed.
- If a module pass opts into managing function analysis invalidation it
has to propagate the invalidation itself, the proxy just does nothing.
The only thing really missing is a way to query for a cached analysis or
nothing at all. With this, function passes can more safely request
a cached module analysis pass without fear of it accidentally running
part way through.
llvm-svn: 195519
run methods of the analysis passes.
Also generalizes and re-uses the SFINAE for transformation passes so
that users can write an analysis pass and only accept an analysis
manager if that is useful to their pass.
This completes the plumbing to make an analysis manager available
through every pass's run method if desired so that passes no longer need
to be constructed around them.
llvm-svn: 195451
This is supposed to be the whole type of the IR unit, and so we
shouldn't pass a pointer to it but rather the value itself. In turn, we
need to provide a 'Module *' as that type argument (for example). This
will become more relevant with SCCs or other units which may not be
passed as a pointer type, but also brings consistency with the
transformation pass templates.
llvm-svn: 195445
rather than the constructors of passes.
This simplifies the APIs of passes significantly and removes an error
prone pattern where the *same* manager had to be given to every
different layer. With the new API the analysis managers themselves will
have to be cross connected with proxy analyses that allow a pass at one
layer to query for the analysis manager of another layer. The proxy will
both expose a handle to the other layer's manager and it will provide
the invalidation hooks to ensure things remain consistent across layers.
Finally, the outer-most analysis manager has to be passed to the run
method of the outer-most pass manager. The rest of the propagation is
automatic.
I've used SFINAE again to allow passes to completely disregard the
analysis manager if they don't need or want to care. This helps keep
simple things simple for users of the new pass manager.
Also, the system specifically supports passing a null pointer into the
outer-most run method if your pass pipeline neither needs nor wants to
deal with analyses. I find this of dubious utility as while some
*passes* don't care about analysis, I'm not sure there are any
real-world users of the pass manager itself that need to avoid even
creating an analysis manager. But it is easy to support, so there we go.
Finally I renamed the module proxy for the function analysis manager to
the more verbose but less confusing name of
FunctionAnalysisManagerModuleProxy. I hate this name, but I have no idea
what else to name these things. I'm expecting in the fullness of time to
potentially have the complete cross product of types at the proxy layer:
{Module,SCC,Function,Loop,Region}AnalysisManager{Module,SCC,Function,Loop,Region}Proxy
(except for XAnalysisManagerXProxy which doesn't make any sense)
This should make it somewhat easier to do the next phases which is to
build the upward proxy and get its invalidation correct, as well as to
make the invalidation within the Module -> Function mapping pass be more
fine grained so as to invalidate fewer fuction analyses.
After all of the proxy analyses are done and the invalidation working,
I'll finally be able to start working on the next two fun fronts: how to
adapt an existing pass to work in both the legacy pass world and the new
one, and building the SCC, Loop, and Region counterparts. Fun times!
llvm-svn: 195400
it is completely optional, and sink the logic for handling the preserved
analysis set into it.
This allows us to implement the delegation logic desired in the proxy
module analysis for the function analysis manager where if the proxy
itself is preserved we assume the set of functions hasn't changed and we
do a fine grained invalidation by walking the functions in the module
and running the invalidate for them all at the manager level and letting
it try to invalidate any passes.
This in turn makes it blindingly obvious why we should hoist the
invalidate trait and have two collections of results. That allows
handling invalidation for almost all analyses without indirect calls and
it allows short circuiting when the preserved set is all.
llvm-svn: 195338
This proxy will fill the role of proxying invalidation events down IR
unit layers so that when a module changes we correctly invalidate
function analyses. Currently this is a very coarse solution -- any
change blows away the entire thing -- but the next step is to make
invalidation handling more nuanced so that we can propagate specific
amounts of invalidation from one layer to the next.
The test is extended to place a module pass between two function pass
managers each of which have preserved function analyses which get
correctly invalidated by the module pass that might have changed what
functions are even in the module.
llvm-svn: 195304
This adds a new set-like type which represents a set of preserved
analysis passes. The set is managed via the opaque PassT::ID() void*s.
The expected convenience templates for interacting with specific passes
are provided. It also supports a symbolic "all" state which is
represented by an invalid pointer in the set. This state is nicely
saturating as it comes up often. Finally, it supports intersection which
is used when finding the set of preserved passes after N different
transforms.
The pass API is then changed to return the preserved set rather than
a bool. This is much more self-documenting than the previous system.
Returning "none" is a conservatively correct solution just like
returning "true" from todays passes and not marking any passes as
preserved. Passes can also be dynamically preserved or not throughout
the run of the pass, and whatever gets returned is the binding state.
Finally, preserving "all" the passes is allowed for no-op transforms
that simply can't harm such things.
Finally, the analysis managers are changed to instead of blindly
invalidating all of the analyses, invalidate those which were not
preserved. This should rig up all of the basic preservation
functionality. This also correctly combines the preservation moving up
from one IR-layer to the another and the preservation aggregation across
N pass runs. Still to go is incrementally correct invalidation and
preservation across IR layers incrementally during N pass runs. That
will wait until we have a device for even exposing analyses across IR
layers.
While the core of this change is obvious, I'm not happy with the current
testing, so will improve it to cover at least some of the invalidation
that I can test easily in a subsequent commit.
llvm-svn: 195241
The FunctionPassManager is now itself a function pass. When run over
a function, it runs all N of its passes over that function. This is the
1:N mapping in the pass dimension only. This allows it to be used in
either a ModulePassManager or potentially some other manager that
works on IR units which are supersets of Functions.
This commit also adds the obvious adaptor to map from a module pass to
a function pass, running the function pass across every function in the
module.
The test has been updated to use this new pattern.
llvm-svn: 195192
a module-specific interface. This is the first of many steps necessary
to generalize the infrastructure such that we can support both
a Module-to-Function and Module-to-SCC-to-Function pass manager
nestings.
After a *lot* of attempts that never worked and didn't even make it to
a committable state, it became clear that I had gotten the layering
design of analyses flat out wrong. Four days later, I think I have most
of the plan for how to correct this, and I'm starting to reshape the
code into it. This is just a baby step I'm afraid, but starts separating
the fundamentally distinct concepts of function analysis passes and
module analysis passes so that in subsequent steps we can effectively
layer them, and have a consistent design for the eventual SCC layer.
As part of this, I've started some interface changes to make passes more
regular. The module pass accepts the module in the run method, and some
of the constructor parameters are gone. I'm still working out exactly
where constructor parameters vs. method parameters will be used, so
I expect this to fluctuate a bit.
This actually makes the invalidation less "correct" at this phase,
because now function passes don't invalidate module analysis passes, but
that was actually somewhat of a misfeature. It will return in a better
factored form which can scale to other units of IR. The documentation
has gotten less verbose and helpful.
llvm-svn: 195189
more smarts in it. This is where most of the interesting logic that used
to live in the implicit-scheduling-hackery of the old pass manager will
live.
Like the previous commits, note that this is a very early prototype!
I expect substantial changes before this is ready to use.
The core of the design is the following:
- We have an AnalysisManager which can be used across a series of
passes over a module.
- The code setting up a pass pipeline registers the analyses available
with the manager.
- Individual transform passes can check than an analysis manager
provides the analyses they require in order to fail-fast.
- There is *no* implicit registration or scheduling.
- Analysis passes are different from other passes: they produce an
analysis result that is cached and made available via the analysis
manager.
- Cached results are invalidated automatically by the pass managers.
- When a transform pass requests an analysis result, either the analysis
is run to produce the result or a cached result is provided.
There are a few aspects of this design that I *know* will change in
subsequent commits:
- Currently there is no "preservation" system, that needs to be added.
- All of the analysis management should move up to the analysis library.
- The analysis management needs to support at least SCC passes. Maybe
loop passes. Living in the analysis library will facilitate this.
- Need support for analyses which are *both* module and function passes.
- Need support for pro-actively running module analyses to have cached
results within a function pass manager.
- Need a clear design for "immutable" passes.
- Need support for requesting cached results when available and not
re-running the pass even if that would be necessary.
- Need more thorough testing of all of this infrastructure.
There are other aspects that I view as open questions I'm hoping to
resolve as I iterate a bit on the infrastructure, and especially as
I start writing actual passes against this.
- Should we have separate management layers for function, module, and
SCC analyses? I think "yes", but I'm not yet ready to switch the code.
Adding SCC support will likely resolve this definitively.
- How should the 'require' functionality work? Should *that* be the only
way to request results to ensure that passes always require things?
- How should preservation work?
- Probably some other things I'm forgetting. =]
Look forward to more patches in shorter order now that this is in place.

Even when the new stuff starts to go in, it is going to be hidden behind

This puts all the global PassManager debugging flags, like
-print-after-all and -time-passes, behind a managed static. This
eliminates their static initializers and, more importantly, exit-time
destructors.
The only behavioral change I anticipate is that tools need to
initialize the PassManager before parsing the command line in order to
export these options, which makes sense. Tools that already initialize
the standard passes (opt/llc) don't need to do anything new.

directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my

will still be some build system fallout.
Also, note that I've not changed the library name itself: libLLVMCore.a

whether we should rename this as well (I think we should, just not sure
