definition below all of the header #include lines, lib/Transforms/...
edition.
This one is tricky for two reasons. We again have a couple of passes
that define something else before the includes as well. I've sunk their
name macros with the DEBUG_TYPE.
Also, InstCombine contains headers that need DEBUG_TYPE, so now those
headers #define and #undef DEBUG_TYPE around their code, leaving them
well formed modular headers. Fixing these headers was a large motivation
for all of these changes, as "leaky" macros of this form are hard on the
modules implementation.

Some Intrinsics are overloaded to the extent that return type equality (all
that's been checked up to now) does not guarantee that the arguments are the
same. In these cases SLP vectorizer should not recurse into the operands, which
can be achieved by comparing them as "Function *" rather than simply the ID.
llvm-svn: 205424
For the purpose of calculating the cost of the loop at various vectorization
factors, we need to count dependencies of consecutive pointers as uniforms
(which means that the VF = 1 cost is used for all overall VF values).
For example, the TSVC benchmark function s173 has:
...
%3 = add nsw i64 %indvars.iv, 16000
%arrayidx8 = getelementptr inbounds %struct.GlobalData* @global_data, i64 0, i32 0, i64 %3
...
and we must realize that the add will be a scalar in order to correctly deduce
it to be profitable to vectorize this on PowerPC with VSX enabled. In fact, all
dependencies of a consecutive pointer must be a scalar (uniform), and so we
simply need to add all consecutive pointers to the worklist that currently
detects collects uniforms.

Extracts coming from phis were being hoisted, while all others were
sunk to their uses. This was inconsistent and didn't seem to serve a
purpose. Changing all extracts to be sunk to uses is a prerequisite
for adding block frequency to the SLP vectorizer's cost model.
I benchmarked the change in isolation (without block frequency). I
only saw noise on x86 and some potentially significant improvements on
ARM. No major regressions is good enough for me.

Replace some dead code with an assert. When I first ported this pass
from a loop pass to a function pass I did so in the naive, recursive
way. It doesn't actually work, we need a worklist instead. When
I switched to the worklist I didn't delete the naive recursion. That
recursion was also buggy because it was dead and never really exercised.

This requires a number of steps.
1) Move value_use_iterator into the Value class as an implementation
detail
2) Change it to actually be a *Use* iterator rather than a *User*
iterator.
3) Add an adaptor which is a User iterator that always looks through the
Use to the User.
4) Wrap these in Value::use_iterator and Value::user_iterator typedefs.
5) Add the range adaptors as Value::uses() and Value::users().
6) Update *all* of the callers to correctly distinguish between whether
they wanted a use_iterator (and to explicitly dig out the User when
needed), or a user_iterator which makes the Use itself totally
opaque.
Because #6 requires churning essentially everything that walked the
Use-Def chains, I went ahead and added all of the range adaptors and
switched them to range-based loops where appropriate. Also because the
renaming requires at least churning every line of code, it didn't make
any sense to split these up into multiple commits -- all of which would
touch all of the same lies of code.
The result is still not quite optimal. The Value::use_iterator is a nice
regular iterator, but Value::user_iterator is an iterator over User*s
rather than over the User objects themselves. As a consequence, it fits
a bit awkwardly into the range-based world and it has the weird
extra-dereferencing 'operator->' that so many of our iterators have.
I think this could be fixed by providing something which transforms
a range of T&s into a range of T*s, but that *can* be separated into
another patch, and it isn't yet 100% clear whether this is the right
move.
However, this change gets us most of the benefit and cleans up
a substantial amount of code around Use and User. =]

Move the test for this class into the IR unittests as well.
This uncovers that ValueMap too is in the IR library. Ironically, the
unittest for ValueMap is useless in the Support library (honestly, so

I am really sorry for the noise, but the current state where some parts of the

'OK_NonUniformConstValue' to identify operands which are constants but
not constant splats.
The cost model now allows returning 'OK_NonUniformConstValue'
for non splat operands that are instances of ConstantVector or
ConstantDataVector.
With this change, targets are now able to compute different costs
for instructions with non-uniform constant operands.
For example, On X86 the cost of a vector shift may vary depending on whether
the second operand is a uniform or non-uniform constant.
This patch applies the following changes:
- The cost model computation now takes into account non-uniform constants;
- The cost of vector shift instructions has been improved in
X86TargetTransformInfo analysis pass;
- BBVectorize, SLPVectorizer and LoopVectorize now know how to distinguish
between non-uniform and uniform constant operands.
Added a new test to verify that the output of opt
'-cost-model -analyze' is valid in the following configurations: SSE2,
SSE4.1, AVX, AVX2.

Before conditional store vectorization/unrolling we had only one
vectorized/unrolled basic block. After adding support for conditional store
vectorization this will not only be one block but multiple basic blocks. The
last block would have the back-edge. I updated the code to use a vector of basic
blocks instead of a single basic block and fixed the users to use the last entry
in this vector. But, I forgot to add the basic blocks to this vector!

loop vectorizer to not do so when runtime pointer checks are needed and
share code with the new (not yet enabled) load/store saturation runtime
unrolling. Also ensure that we only consider the runtime checks when the
loop hasn't already been vectorized. If it has, the runtime check cost
has already been paid.
I've fleshed out a test case to cover the scalar unrolling as well as
the vector unrolling and comment clearly why we are or aren't following
the pattern.

vectorizer, placing it behind an off-by-default flag.
It turns out that block frequency isn't what we want at all, here or
elsewhere. This has been I think a nagging feeling for several of us
working with it, but Arnold has given some really nice simple examples
where the results are so comprehensively wrong that they aren't useful.
I'm planning to email the dev list with a summary of why its not really
useful and a couple of ideas about how to better structure these types
of heuristics.
llvm-svn: 200294
The vectorizer takes a loop like this and widens all instructions except for the
store. The stores are scalarized/unrolled and hidden behind an "if" block.
for (i = 0; i < 128; ++i) {
if (a[i] < 10)
a[i] += val;
}
for (i = 0; i < 128; i+=2) {
v = a[i:i+1];
v0 = (extract v, 0) + 10;
v1 = (extract v, 1) + 10;
if (v0 < 10)
a[i] = v0;
if (v1 < 10)
a[i] = v1;
}
The vectorizer relies on subsequent optimizations to sink instructions into the
conditional block where they are anticipated.
The flag "vectorize-num-stores-pred" controls whether and how many stores to
handle this way. Vectorization of conditional stores is disabled per default for
now.
This patch also adds a change to the heuristic when the flag
"enable-loadstore-runtime-unroll" is enabled (off by default). It unrolls small
loops until load/store ports are saturated. This heuristic uses TTI's
getMaxUnrollFactor as a measure for load/store ports.
I also added a second flag -enable-cond-stores-vec. It will enable vectorization
of conditional stores. But there is no cost model for vectorization of
conditional stores in place yet so this will not do good at the moment.

cold loops as-if they were being optimized for size.
Nothing fancy here. Simply test case included. The nice thing is that we
can now incrementally build on top of this to drive other heuristics.
All of the infrastructure work is done to get the profile information
into this layer.
The remaining work necessary to make this a fully general purpose loop
unroller for very hot loops is to make it a fully general purpose loop
unroller. Things I know of but am not going to have time to benchmark
and fix in the immediate future:
1) Don't disable the entire pass when the target is lacking vector
registers. This really doesn't make any sense any more.
2) Teach the unroller at least and the vectorizer potentially to handle
non-if-converted loops. This is trivial for the unroller but hard for
the vectorizer.
3) Compute the relative hotness of the loop and thread that down to the
various places that make cost tradeoffs (very likely only the
unroller makes sense here, and then only when dealing with loops that
are small enough for unrolling to not completely blow out the LSD).
I'm still dubious how useful hotness information will be. So far, my
experiments show that if we can get the correct logic for determining
when unrolling actually helps performance, the code size impact is
completely unimportant and we can unroll in all cases. But at least
we'll no longer burn code size on cold code.
One somewhat unrelated idea that I've had forever but not had time to
implement: mark all functions which are only reachable via the global
constructors rigging in the module as optsize. This would also decrease
the impact of any more aggressive heuristics here on code size.
llvm-svn: 200219

powers of two. This is essentially always the correct thing given the
impact on alignment, scaling factors that can be used in addressing
modes, etc. Also, fix the management of the unroll vs. small loop cost
to more accurately model things with this world.
Enhance a test case to actually exercise more of the unroll machinery if
using synthetic constants rather than a specific target model. Before
this change, with the added flags this test will unroll 3 times instead
of either 2 or 4 (the two sensible answers).
While I don't expect this to make a huge difference, if there are lots
of loops sitting right on the edge of hitting the 'small unroll' factor,
they might change behavior. However, I've benchmarked moving the small
loop cost up and down in many various ways and by a huge factor (2x)
without seeing more than 0.2% code size growth. Small adjustments such
as the series that led up here have led to about 1% improvement on some
benchmarks, but it is very close to the noise floor so I mostly checked
that nothing regressed. Let me know if you see bad behavior on other
targets but I don't expect this to be a sufficiently dramatic change to
trigger anything.

changed at this point.
These are a bit hack-y, but talking with Hal, there doesn't seem to be

number of vector registers rather than toggling between vector and
scalar register number based on VF. I don't have a test case as
I spotted this by inspection and on X86 it only makes a difference if
your target is lacking SSE and thus has *no* vector registers.
If someone wants to add a test case for this for ARM or somewhere else
where this is more significant, that would be awesome.
Also made the variable name a bit more sensible while I'm here.

LoopVectorize pass.
The logic here doesn't make much sense. We *only* unrolled if the
unvectorized loop was a reduction loop with a single basic block *and*
small loop body. The reduction part in particular doesn't make much
sense. Instead, if we just fall through to the vectorized unroll logic
it makes more sense of unrolling if there is a vectorized reduction that
could be hacked on by the SLP vectorizer *or* if the loop is small.
This is mostly a cleanup and nothing in the test suite really exercises
this, but I did run benchmarks across this change and saw no really
significant changes.

a FunctionPass. With this change the loop vectorizer no longer is a loop
pass and can readily depend on function analyses. In particular, with
this change we no longer have to form a loop pass manager to run the
loop vectorizer which simplifies the entire pass management of LLVM.
The next step here is to teach the loop vectorizer to leverage profile
information through the profile information providing analysis passes.

Really. Under certain circumstances (the use list of an instruction has to be

This removes it from any of the virtual mess of the pass interfaces and
lets it derive cleanly from the DominatorTreeBase<> template. In turn,
tons of boilerplate interface can be nuked and it turns into a very
straightforward extension of the base DominatorTree interface.
The old analysis pass is now a simple wrapper. The names and style of
this split should match the split between CallGraph and
CallGraphWrapperPass. All of the users of DominatorTree have been
updated to match using many of the same tricks as with CallGraph. The
goal is that the common type remains the resulting DominatorTree rather
than the pass. This will make subsequent work toward the new pass
manager significantly easier.
Also in numerous places things became cleaner because I switched from
re-running the pass (!!! mid way through some other passes run!!!) to

doesn't make any sense to have the headers in Analysis.
Long term, I think there is going to be a much better way to divide
these matters. The dominators code should be fully separated into the
abstract graph algorithm and have that put in Support where it becomes
obvious that evn Clang's CFGBlock's can use it. Then the verifier can
manually construct dominance information from the Support-driven
interface while the Analysis library can provide a pass which both
caches, reconstructs, and supports a nice update API.
But those are very long term, and so I don't want to leave the really
confusing structure until that day arrives.

The intended behaviour is to force vectorization on the presence
of the flag (either turn on or off), and to continue the behaviour
as expected in its absence. Tests were added to make sure the all
cases are covered in opt. No tests were added in other tools with
the assumption that they should use the PassManagerBuilder in the
same way.
This patch also removes the outdated -late-vectorize flag, which was
on by default and not helping much.
The pragma metadata is being attached to the same place as other loop
metadata, but nothing forbids one from attaching it to a function
(to enable #pragma optimize) or basic blocks (to hint the basic-block
vectorizers), etc. The logic should be the same all around.
Patches to Clang to produce the metadata will be produced after the
initial implementation is agreed upon and committed. Patches to other

The backedge count is 255. The induction variable type is i8. If we add one to

When we vectorize a scalar access with no alignment specified, we have to set

When the loop vectorizer was part of the SCC inliner pass manager gvn would

any form of redundancy elimination before we perform instcombine. This caused
vectorized induction variables to survive that did not before.

The loop vectorizer does not currently understand how to vectorize
extractelement instructions. The existing check, which excluded all
vector-valued instructions, did not catch extractelement instructions because
it checked only the return value. As a result, vectorization would proceed,
producing illegal instructions like this:
%58 = extractelement <2 x i32> %15, i32 0
%59 = extractelement i32 %58, i32 0
where the second extractelement is illegal because its first operand is not a vector.

Before this patch we relied on the order of phi nodes when we looked for phi

Standard library indentifiers are reserved names so functions with external

Reapply r191108 with a fix for a memory corruption error I introduced. Of
course, we can't reference the scalars that we replace by vectorizing and then

side effect, this also simplifies the interface between BoUpSLP and the

When unrolling is disabled in the pass manager, the loop vectorizer should also
not unroll loops. This will allow the -fno-unroll-loops option in Clang to
behave as expected (even for vectorizable loops). The loop vectorizer's
-force-vector-unroll option will (continue to) override the pass-manager
setting (including -force-vector-unroll=0 to force use of the internal
auto-selection logic).
In order to test this, I added a flag to opt (-disable-loop-unrolling) to force
disable unrolling through opt (the analog of -fno-unroll-loops in Clang). Also,
this fixes a small bug in opt where the loop vectorizer was enabled only after
the pass manager populated the queue of passes (the global_alias.ll test needed
a slight update to the RUN line as a result of this fix).

using GEPs. Previously, it used a number of different heuristics for
analyzing the GEPs. Several of these were conservatively correct, but
failed to fall back to SCEV even when SCEV might have given a reasonable
answer. One was simply incorrect in how it was formulated.
There was good code already to recursively evaluate the constant offsets
in GEPs, look through pointer casts, etc. I gathered this into a form
code like the SLP code can use in a previous commit, which allows all of
this code to become quite simple.
There is some performance (compile time) concern here at first glance as
we're directly attempting to walk both pointers constant GEP chains.
However, a couple of thoughts:
1) The very common cases where there is a dynamic pointer, and a second
pointer at a constant offset (usually a stride) from it, this code
will actually not do any unnecessary work.
2) InstCombine and other passes work very hard to collapse constant
GEPs, so it will be rare that we iterate here for a long time.
That said, if there remain performance problems here, there are some
obvious things that can improve the situation immensely. Doing
a vectorizer-pass-wide memoizer for each individual layer of pointer
values, their base values, and the constant offset is likely to be able
to completely remove redundant work and strictly limit the scaling of
the work to scrape these GEPs. Since this optimization was not done on
the prior version (which would still benefit from it), I've not done it
here. But if folks have benchmarks that slow down it should be straight
forward for them to add.
I've added a test case, but I'm not really confident of the amount of
testing done for different access patterns, strides, and pointer
manipulation.

This adds a llvm.copysign intrinsic; We already have Libfunc recognition for
copysign (which is turned into the FCOPYSIGN SDAG node). In order to
autovectorize calls to copysign in the loop vectorizer, we need a corresponding
intrinsic as well.
In addition to the expected changes to the language reference, the loop
vectorizer, BasicTTI, and the SDAG builder (the intrinsic is transformed into
an FCOPYSIGN node, just like the function call), this also adds FCOPYSIGN to a
few lists in LegalizeVector{Ops,Types} so that vector copysigns can be
expanded.
In TargetLoweringBase::initActions, I've made the default action for FCOPYSIGN
be Expand for vector types. This seems correct for all in-tree targets, and I
think is the right thing to do because, previously, there was no way to generate
vector-values FCOPYSIGN nodes (and most targets don't specify an action for
vector-typed FCOPYSIGN).
llvm-svn: 188728
When computing the use set of a store, we need to add the store to the write
set prior to iterating over later instructions. Otherwise, if there is a later
aliasing load of that store, that load will not be tagged as a use, and bad
things will happen.
trackUsesOfI still adds later dependent stores of an instruction to that
instruction's write set, but it never sees the original instruction, and so
when tracking uses of a store, the store must be added to the write set by the
caller.

All libm floating-point rounding functions, except for round(), had their own
ISD nodes. Recent PowerPC cores have an instruction for round(), and so here I'm

For the most part, this is straightforward. I've added an intrinsic
and a matching ISD node just like those for nearbyint() and friends. The
SelectionDAG pattern I've named frnd (because ISD::FP_ROUND has already claimed
fround).
This will be used by the PowerPC backend in a follow-up commit.

If an outside loop user of the reduction value uses the header phi node we
cannot just reduce the vectorized phi value in the vector code epilog because
we would loose VF-1 reductions.
lp:
p = phi (0, lv)
lv = lv + 1
...
brcond , lp, outside
outside:
usr = add 0, p
(Say the loop iterates two times, the value of p coming out of the loop is one).
We cannot just transform this to:
vlp:
p = phi (<0,0>, lv)
lv = lv + <1,1>
..
brcond , lp, outside
outside:
p_reduced = p[0] + [1];
usr = add 0, p_reduced
(Because the original loop iterated two times the vectorized loop would iterate
one time, but p_reduced ends up being zero instead of one).
We would have to execute VF-1 iterations in the scalar remainder loop in such
cases. For now, just disable vectorization.

This is a complete re-write if the bottom-up vectorization class.
Before this commit we scanned the instruction tree 3 times. First in search of merge points for the trees. Second, for estimating the cost. And finally for vectorization.
There was a lot of code duplication and adding the DCE exposed bugs. The new design is simpler and DCE was a part of the design.
In this implementation we build the tree once. After that we estimate the cost by scanning the different entries in the constructed tree (in any order). The vectorization phase also works on the built tree.

CBindingWrapping.h into Support/.
This new file just contains the macros for defining different wrap/unwrap

The calls to those macros, as well as any custom wrap/unwrap definitions
(like for array of Values for example), are put into corresponding C++

Doing this required some #include surgery, since some .cpp files relied
on the fact that including Wrap.h implicitly caused the inclusion of a
bunch of other things.
This also now means that the C++ headers will include their corresponding
C API headers; for example Value.h must include llvm-c/Core.h. I think
this is harmless, since the C API headers contain just external function
declarations and some C types, so I don't believe there should be any

This patch disables memory-instruction vectorization for types that need padding
bytes, e.g., x86_fp80 has 10 bytes store size with 6 bytes padding in darwin on
x86_64. Because the load/store vectorization is performed by the bit casting to
a packed vector, which has incompatible memory layout due to the lack of padding
bytes, the present vectorizer produces inconsistent result for memory
instructions of those types.
This patch checks an equality of the AllocSize of a scalar type and allocated
size for each vector element, to ensure that there is no padding bytes and the
array can be read/written using vector operations.

This commit adds the infrastructure for performing bottom-up SLP vectorization (and other optimizations) on parallel computations.
The infrastructure has three potential users:
1. The loop vectorizer needs to be able to vectorize AOS data structures such as (sum += A[i] + A[i+1]).
2. The BB-vectorizer needs this infrastructure for bottom-up SLP vectorization, because bottom-up vectorization is faster to compute.
3. A loop-roller needs to be able to analyze consecutive chains and roll them into a loop, in order to reduce code size. A loop roller does not need to create vector instructions, and this infrastructure separates the chain analysis from the vectorization.
This patch also includes a simple (100 LOC) bottom up SLP vectorizer that uses the infrastructure, and can vectorize this code:
void SAXPY(int *x, int *y, int a, int i) {
x[i] = a * x[i] + y[i];
x[i+1] = a * x[i+1] + y[i+1];

For some basic blocks, it is possible to generate many candidate pairs for
relatively few pairable instructions. When many (tens of thousands) of these pairs
are generated for a single instruction group, the time taken to generate and
rank the different vectorization plans can become quite large. As a result, we now
cap the number of candidate pairs within each instruction group. This is done by
closing out the group once the threshold is reached (set now at 3000 pairs).
Although this will limit the overall compile-time impact, this may not be the best
way to achieve this result. It might be better, for example, to prune excessive
candidate pairs after the fact the prevent the generation of short, but highly-connected
groups. We can experiment with this in the future.
This change reduces the overall compile-time slowdown of the csa.ll test case in
PR15222 to ~5x. If 5x is still considered too large, a lower limit can be
used as the default.

necessary because we now always assume that address computation has a cost and
three is a closer value to the architecture.

We don't want too many classes in a pass and the classes obscure the details. I
was going a little overboard with object modeling here. Replace classes by
generic code that handles both loads and stores.
No functionality change intended.

In the loop vectorizer cost model, we used to ignore stores/loads of a pointer
type when computing the widest type within a loop. This meant that if we had
only stores/loads of pointers in a loop we would return a widest type of 8bits
(instead of 32 or 64 bit) and therefore a vector factor that was too big.
Now, if we see a consecutive store/load of pointers we use the size of a pointer
(from data layout).
This problem occured in SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/hash.cpp (reduced
test case is the first test in vector_ptr_load_store.ll).
