This adds some basic MVE masked load/store costs, notably changing the
cost of legal loads/stores to the MVECostFactor and the cost of
scalarized instructions to 8*NumElts.

This checks to see if the loop will likely become a tail predicated loop
and disables wls loop generation if so, as the likelihood for reverting
is currently too high. These should be fairly rare situations anyway due
to the way iterations and element counts are used during lowering. Just
not trying can alter how SCEV's are materialized however, leading to
different codegen.
It also adds a option to disable all while low overhead loops, for
debugging.

This was already something that was handled by one of the "else"
branches in maybeLoweredToCall, so this patch is an NFC but makes it
explicit and adds a test. We may in the future want to support this
under certain situations but for the moment just don't try and create
low overhead loops with inline asm in them.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D91257
We already do not unroll loops with vector instructions under MVE, but
that does not include the remainder loops that the vectorizer produces.
These remainder loops will be rarely executed and are not worth
unrolling, as the trip count is likely to be low if they get executed at
all. Luckily they get llvm.loop.isvectorized to make recognizing them
simpler.
We have wanted to do this for a while but hit issues with low overhead
loops being reverted due to difficult registry allocation. With recent
changes that seems to be less of an issue now.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D90055
This changes the definition of t2DoLoopStart from
t2DoLoopStart rGPR
to
GPRlr = t2DoLoopStart rGPR
This will hopefully mean that low overhead loops are more tied together,
and we can more reliably generate loops without reverting or being at
the whims of the register allocator.
This is a fairly simple change in itself, but leads to a number of other
required alterations.
- The hardware loop pass, if UsePhi is set, now generates loops of the
form:
%start = llvm.start.loop.iterations(%N)
loop:
%p = phi [%start], [%dec]
%dec = llvm.loop.decrement.reg(%p, 1)
%c = icmp ne %dec, 0
br %c, loop, exit
- For this a new llvm.start.loop.iterations intrinsic was added, identical
to llvm.set.loop.iterations but produces a value as seen above, gluing
the loop together more through def-use chains.
- This new instrinsic conceptually produces the same output as input,
which is taught to SCEV so that the checks in MVETailPredication are not
affected.
- Some minor changes are needed to the ARMLowOverheadLoop pass, but it has
been left mostly as before. We should now more reliably be able to tell
that the t2DoLoopStart is correct without having to prove it, but
t2WhileLoopStart and tail-predicated loops will remain the same.
- And all the tests have been updated. There are a lot of them!
This patch on it's own might cause more trouble that it helps, with more
tail-predicated loops being reverted, but some additional patches can
hopefully improve upon that to get to something that is better overall.

This is the cmp/sel sibling to D90692.
Again, the reasoning is: the throughput cost is number of instructions/uops,
so size/blended costs are identical except in special cases (for example,
fdiv or other known-expensive machine instructions or things like MVE that
may require cracking into >1 uops).
We need to check for a valid (non-null) condition type parameter because
SimplifyCFG may pass nullptr for that (and so we will crash multiple
regression tests without that check). I'm not sure if passing nullptr makes
sense, but other code in the cost model does appear to check if that param
is set or not.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D90781
This is based on the same idea that I am using for the basic model implementation

MVE that may require cracking into >1 uop)).
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D90692
If an instruction will be lowered to a call there is no advantage of
using a low overhead loop as the LR register will need to be spilled and
reloaded around the call, and the low overhead will end up being
reverted. This teaches our hardware loop lowering that these memory
intrinsics will be calls under certain situations.

This reverts the revert commit 408c4408fa.
This version of the patch includes a fix for a crash caused by
treating ICmp/FCmp constant expressions as instructions.
Original message:
On some targets, like AArch64, vector selects can be efficiently lowered
if the vector condition is a compare with a supported predicate.
This patch adds a new argument to getCmpSelInstrCost, to indicate the
predicate of the feeding select condition. Note that it is not
sufficient to use the context instruction when querying the cost of a
vector select starting from a scalar one, because the condition of the
vector select could be composed of compares with different predicates.
This change greatly improves modeling the costs of certain
compare/select patterns on AArch64.
I am also planning on putting up patches to make use of the new argument in
SLPVectorizer & LV.
If the elt size is unknown due to it being a pointer, a comparison
against 0 will cause an assert. Make sure the elt size is large enough
before comparing and for the moment just return the scalar cost.

This adds some basic costs for MVE reductions - currently just costing
the simple legal add vectors as a single MVE instruction. More complex

allows it.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D88980
This adds a very basic cost for active_lane_mask under MVE - making the
assumption that they will be free and then apologizing for that in a
comment.
In reality they may either be free (by being nicely folded into a tail
predicated loop), cost the same as a VCTP or be expanded into vdup's,
adds and cmp's. It is difficult to detect the difference from a single
getIntrinsicInstrCost call, so makes the assumption that the vectorizer
is adding them, and only added them where it makes sense.
We may need to change this in the future to better model predicate costs
in the vectorizer, especially at -Os or non-tail predicated loops. The
vectorizer currently does not query the cost of these instructions but
that will change in the future and a zero cost there probably makes the
most sense at the moment.

Marks constants of an ICmp instruction as free if it's only user is a select

Changes TTI function getIntImmCostInst to take an additional Instruction parameter,
which enables us to be able to check it is part of a min(max())/max(min()) pattern that will match SSAT.
We can then mark the constant used as free to prevent it being hoisted so SSAT can still be generated.
Required minor changes in some non-ARM backends to allow for the optional parameter to be included.

This allows the backend to tell the vectorizer to produce inloop

MVE Gather scatter codegeneration is looking a lot better than it used
to, but still has some issues. The instructions we currently model as 1
cycle per element, which is a bit low for some cases. Increasing the
cost by the MVECostFactor brings them in-line with our other instruction
costs. This will have the effect of only generating then when the extra
benefit is more likely to overcome some of the issues. Notably in
running out of registers and vectorizing loops that could otherwise be
SLP vectorized.
In the short-term whilst we look at other ways of dealing with those
more directly, we can increase the costs of gathers to make them more
likely to be beneficial when created.

When TTI was updated to use an explicit cost, TCK_CodeSize was used
although the default implicit cost would have been the hand-wavey
cost of size and latency. So, revert back to this behaviour. This is
not expected to have (much) impact on targets since most (all?) of
them return the same value for SizeAndLatency and CodeSize.
When optimising for size, the logic has been changed to query
CodeSize costs instead of SizeAndLatency.
This patch also adds a testing option in the unroller so that
OptSize thresholds can be specified.

This patch uses the feature added in D79162 to fix the cost of a
sext/zext of a masked load, or a trunc for a masked store.
Previously, those were considered cheap or even free, but it's
not the case as we cannot split the load in the same way we would for
normal loads.
This updates the costs to better reflect reality, and adds a test for it
in test/Analysis/CostModel/ARM/cast.ll.
It also adds a vectorizer test that showcases the improvement: in some
cases, the vectorizer will now choose a smaller VF when
tail-predication is enabled, which results in better codegen. (Because
if it were to use a higher VF in those cases, the code we see above
would be generated, and the vmovs would block tail-predication later in
the process, resulting in very poor codegen overall)

Currently, getCastInstrCost has limited information about the cast it's
rating, often just the opcode and types. Sometimes there is a context
instruction as well, but it isn't trustworthy: for instance, when the
vectorizer is rating a plan, it calls getCastInstrCost with the old
instructions when, in fact, it's trying to evaluate the cost of the
instruction post-vectorization. Thus, the current system can get the
cost of certain casts incorrect as the correct cost can vary greatly
based on the context in which it's used.
For example, if the vectorizer queries getCastInstrCost to evaluate the
cost of a sext(load) with tail predication enabled, getCastInstrCost
will think it's free most of the time, but it's not always free. On ARM
MVE, a VLD2 group cannot be extended like a normal VLDR can. Similar
situations can come up with how masked loads can be extended when being
split.
To fix that, this path adds a new parameter to getCastInstrCost to give
it a hint about the context of the cast. It adds a CastContextHint enum
which contains the type of the load/store being created by the
vectorizer - one for each of the types it can produce.

For a long time, the InstCombine pass handled target specific
intrinsics. Having target specific code in general passes was noted as
an area for improvement for a long time.
D81728 moves most target specific code out of the InstCombine pass.
Applying the target specific combinations in an extra pass would
probably result in inferior optimizations compared to the current
fixed-point iteration, therefore the InstCombine pass resorts to newly
introduced functions in the TargetTransformInfo when it encounters
unknown intrinsics.
The patch should not have any effect on generated code (under the
assumption that code never uses intrinsics from a foreign target).
This introduces three new functions:
TargetTransformInfo::instCombineIntrinsic
TargetTransformInfo::simplifyDemandedUseBitsIntrinsic
TargetTransformInfo::simplifyDemandedVectorEltsIntrinsic
A few target specific parts are left in the InstCombine folder, where
it makes sense to share code. The largest left-over part in
InstCombineCalls.cpp is the code shared between arm and aarch64.
This allows to move about 3000 lines out from InstCombine to the targets.

If a vector body has live-out values, it is probably a reduction, which needs a
final reduction step after the loop. MVE has a VADDV instruction to reduce
integer vectors, but doesn't have an equivalent one for float vectors. A
live-out value that is not recognised as reduction later in the optimisation
pipeline will result in the tail-predicated loop to be reverted to a
non-predicated loop and this is very expensive, i.e. it has a significant
performance impact, which is what we hope to avoid with fine tuning the ARM TTI
hook preferPredicateOverEpilogue implementation.

This adjusts the MVE fp16 cost model, similar to how we already do for
integer casts. It uses the base cost of 1 per cvt for most fp extend /
truncates, but adjusts it for loads and stores where we know that a
extending load has been used to get the load into the correct lane, and
only an MVE VCVTB is then needed.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D81813
This adds some default costs for fp extends and truncates, generally

types, now that fp16 is a more common thing.

This expands the existing extend costs with a few extras for larger
types than legal, which will usually be split under MVE. It also adds

larger vector factors.
Notably it alters the cost of a <4 x half>, which with the current
