This patch introduces a new pass that computes the safe point to insert the
prologue and epilogue of the function.
The interest is to find safe points that are cheaper than the entry and exits
blocks.
As an example and to avoid regressions to be introduce, this patch also
implements the required bits to enable the shrink-wrapping pass for AArch64.
** Context **
Currently we insert the prologue and epilogue of the method/function in the
entry and exits blocks. Although this is correct, we can do a better job when
those are not immediately required and insert them at less frequently executed
places.
The job of the shrink-wrapping pass is to identify such places.
** Motivating example **
Let us consider the following function that perform a call only in one branch of
a if:
define i32 @f(i32 %a, i32 %b) {
%tmp = alloca i32, align 4
%tmp2 = icmp slt i32 %a, %b
br i1 %tmp2, label %true, label %false
true:
store i32 %a, i32* %tmp, align 4
%tmp4 = call i32 @doSomething(i32 0, i32* %tmp)
br label %false
false:
%tmp.0 = phi i32 [ %tmp4, %true ], [ %a, %0 ]
ret i32 %tmp.0
}
On AArch64 this code generates (removing the cfi directives to ease
readabilities):
_f: ; @f
; BB#0:
stp x29, x30, [sp, #-16]!
mov x29, sp
sub sp, sp, #16 ; =16
cmp w0, w1
b.ge LBB0_2
; BB#1: ; %true
stur w0, [x29, #-4]
sub x1, x29, #4 ; =4
mov w0, wzr
bl _doSomething
LBB0_2: ; %false
mov sp, x29
ldp x29, x30, [sp], #16
ret
With shrink-wrapping we could generate:
_f: ; @f
; BB#0:
cmp w0, w1
b.ge LBB0_2
; BB#1: ; %true
stp x29, x30, [sp, #-16]!
mov x29, sp
sub sp, sp, #16 ; =16
stur w0, [x29, #-4]
sub x1, x29, #4 ; =4
mov w0, wzr
bl _doSomething
add sp, x29, #16 ; =16
ldp x29, x30, [sp], #16
LBB0_2: ; %false
ret
Therefore, we would pay the overhead of setting up/destroying the frame only if
we actually do the call.
** Proposed Solution **
This patch introduces a new machine pass that perform the shrink-wrapping
analysis (See the comments at the beginning of ShrinkWrap.cpp for more details).
It then stores the safe save and restore point into the MachineFrameInfo
attached to the MachineFunction.
This information is then used by the PrologEpilogInserter (PEI) to place the
related code at the right place. This pass runs right before the PEI.
Unlike the original paper of Chow from PLDI’88, this implementation of
shrink-wrapping does not use expensive data-flow analysis and does not need hack
to properly avoid frequently executed point. Instead, it relies on dominance and
loop properties.
The pass is off by default and each target can opt-in by setting the
EnableShrinkWrap boolean to true in their derived class of TargetPassConfig.
This setting can also be overwritten on the command line by using
-enable-shrink-wrap.
Before you try out the pass for your target, make sure you properly fix your
emitProlog/emitEpilog/adjustForXXX method to cope with basic blocks that are not
necessarily the entry block.
** Design Decisions **
1. ShrinkWrap is its own pass right now. It could frankly be merged into PEI but
for debugging and clarity I thought it was best to have its own file.
2. Right now, we only support one save point and one restore point. At some
point we can expand this to several save point and restore point, the impacted
component would then be:
- The pass itself: New algorithm needed.
- MachineFrameInfo: Hold a list or set of Save/Restore point instead of one
pointer.
- PEI: Should loop over the save point and restore point.
Anyhow, at least for this first iteration, I do not believe this is interesting
to support the complex cases. We should revisit that when we motivating
examples.

Finish off PR23080 by renaming the debug info IR constructs from `MD*`
to `DI*`. The last of the `DIDescriptor` classes were deleted in
r235356, and the last of the related typedefs removed in r235413, so
this has all baked for about a week.
Note: If you have out-of-tree code (like a frontend), I recommend that
you get everything compiling and tests passing with the *previous*
commit before updating to this one. It'll be easier to keep track of
what code is using the `DIDescriptor` hierarchy and what you've already
updated, and I think you're extremely unlikely to insert bugs. YMMV of
course.
Back to *this* commit: I did this using the rename-md-di-nodes.sh
upgrade script I've attached to PR23080 (both code and testcases) and
filtered through clang-format-diff.py. I edited the tests for
test/Assembler/invalid-generic-debug-node-*.ll by hand since the columns
were off-by-three. It should work on your out-of-tree testcases (and
code, if you've followed the advice in the previous paragraph).
Some of the tests are in badly named files now (e.g.,
test/Assembler/invalid-mdcompositetype-missing-tag.ll should be
'dicompositetype'); I'll come back and move the files in a follow-up
commit.

We need to track if an AddrSpaceCast expression was seen when
generating an MCExpr for a ConstantExpr. This change introduces a
custom lowerConstant method to the NVPTX asm printer that will create
NVPTXGenericMCSymbolRefExpr nodes at the appropriate places to encode
the information that a given symbol needs to be casted to a generic
address.

[DebugInfo] Add debug locations to constant SD nodes
This adds debug location to constant nodes of Selection DAG and updates
all places that create constants to pass debug locations
(see PR13269).
Can't guarantee that all locations are correct, but in a lot of cases choice
is obvious, so most of them should be. At least all tests pass.
Tests for these changes do not cover everything, instead just check it for
SDNodes, ARM and AArch64 where it's easy to get incorrect locations on
constants.
This is not complete fix as FastISel contains workaround for wrong debug
locations, which drops locations from instructions on processing constants,
but there isn't currently a way to use debug locations from constants there
as llvm::Constant doesn't cache it (yet). Although this is a bit different
issue, not directly related to these changes.

This allows the compiler/assembly programmer to switch back to a
section. This in turn fixes the bootstrap failure on powerpc (tested
on gcc110) without changing the ppc codegen at all.
I will try to cleanup the various getELFSection overloads in a followup patch.
Just using a default argument now would lead to ambiguities.

The plan here is to push the API changes out from the common components
(like Constant::getGetElementPtr and IRBuilder::CreateGEP related
functions) and just update callers to either pass the type if it's
obvious, or pass null.
Do this with LoadInst as well and anything else that comes up, then to
start porting specific uses to not pass null anymore - this may require
some refactoring in each case.

Require the pointee type to be passed explicitly and assert that it is
correct. For now it's possible to pass nullptr here (and I've done so in
a few places in this patch) but eventually that will be disallowed once
all clients have been updated or removed. It'll be a long road to get
all the way there... but if you have the cahnce to update your callers
to pass the type explicitly without depending on a pointer's element
type, that would be a good thing to do soon and a necessary thing to do
eventually.

All the ports have been fixed to read the feature bits from the subtarget passed

per-function subtarget.
Currently, code-gen passes the default or generic subtarget to the constructors
of MCInstPrinter subclasses (see LLVMTargetMachine::addPassesToEmitFile), which
enables some targets (AArch64, ARM, and X86) to change their instprinter's
behavior based on the subtarget feature bits. Since the backend can now use
different subtargets for each function, instprinter has to be changed to use the
per-function subtarget rather than the default subtarget.
This patch takes the first step towards enabling instprinter to change its
behavior based on the per-function subtarget. It adds a bit "PassSubtarget" to
AsmWriter which tells table-gen to pass a reference to MCSubtargetInfo to the
various print methods table-gen auto-generates.
I will follow up with changes to instprinters of AArch64, ARM, and X86.

The changes to InstCombine (& SCEV) do seem a bit silly - it doesn't make
anything obviously better to have the caller access the pointers element
type (the thing I'm trying to remove) than the GEP itself, but it's a
helpful migration step. This will allow me to more obviously lock down
GEP (& Load, etc) API usage, then fix all the code that accesses pointer
element types except the places that need to be removed (most of the
InstCombines) anyway - at which point I'll need to just remove all that
code because it won't be meaningful anymore (there will be no pointer
types, so no bitcasts to combine)
SCEV looks like it'll need some restructuring - we'll have to do a bit
more work for GEP canonicalization, since it'll depend on how it's used
if we can even manage to canonicalize it to a non-ugly GEP. I guess we
can do some fun stuff like voting (do 2 out of 3 load from the GEP with
a certain type that gives a pretty GEP? Does every typed use of the GEP
use either a specific type or a generic type (i8*, etc)?)

TargetMachine::getSubtargetImpl routines.
This keeps the target independent code free of bare subtarget
calls while the remainder of the backends are migrated, or not
if they don't wish to support per-function subtargets as would
be needed for function multiversioning or LTO of disparate
cpu subarchitecture types, e.g.
clang -msse4.2 -c foo.c -emit-llvm -o foo.bc
clang -c bar.c -emit-llvm -o bar.bc
llvm-link foo.bc bar.bc -o baz.bc
llc baz.bc

The operand flag word for ISD::INLINEASM nodes now contains a 15-bit
memory constraint ID when the operand kind is Kind_Mem. This constraint
ID is a numeric equivalent to the constraint code string and is converted
with a target specific hook in TargetLowering.
This patch maps all memory constraints to InlineAsm::Constraint_m so there
is no functional change at this point. It just proves that using these
previously unused bits in the encoding of the flag word doesn't break
anything.
The next patch will make each target preserve the current mapping of
everything to Constraint_m for itself while changing the target independent
implementation of the hook to return Constraint_Unknown appropriately. Each
target will then be adapted in separate patches to use appropriate
Constraint_* values.
PR22883 was caused the matching operands copying the whole of the operand flags
for the matched operand. This included the constraint id which needed to be
replaced with the operand number. This has been fixed with a conversion
function. Following on from this, matching operands also used the operand
number as the constraint id. This has been fixed by looking up the matched
operand and taking it from there.

This (r232027) has caused PR22883; so it seems those bits might be used by
