Craig Topper 79d189f597 [X86] Remove VT.isSimple() check from detectAVGPattern.
Which types are considered 'simple' is a function of the requirements of all targets that LLVM supports. That shouldn't directly affect what types we are able to handle. The remainder of this code checks that the number of elements is a power of 2 and takes care of splitting down to a legal size.

Chandler Carruth a1d6107b14 [DAG, X86] Revert r324797, r324491, and r324359.
Sadly, r324359 caused at least PR36312. There is a patch out for review
but it seems to be taking a bit and we've already had these crashers in
tree for too long. We're hitting this PR in real code now and are
blocked on shipping new compilers as a consequence so I'm reverting us
back to green.

Sorry for the churn due to the stacked changes that I had to revert. =/

Instruction Selection

Cleanup cycle/validity checks in ISel (IsLegalToFold,
HandleMergeInputChains) and X86 (isFusableLoadOpStore). Now do a full
search for cycles / dependencies pruning the search when topological
property of NodeId allows.

As part of this propogate the NodeId-based cutoffs to narrow

So far we've only been using PACKSS truncations with 'all-bits or zero-bits' patterns (vector comparison results etc.). When really we can safely use it for any case as long as the number of sign bits reach down to the last 16-bits (or 8-bits if we're truncating to bytes).

The next steps after this is add the equivalent support for PACKUS and to support packing to sub-128 bit vectors for truncating stores etc.

Issues addressed since original review:
- Avoid bug in regalloc greedy/machine verifier when forwarding to use
  in an instruction that re-defines the same virtual register.
- Fixed bug when forwarding to use in EarlyClobber instruction slot.
- Fixed incorrect forwarding to register definitions that showed up in
  explicit_uses() iterator (e.g. in INLINEASM).
- Moved removal of dead instructions found by
  LiveIntervals::shrinkToUses() outside of loop iterating over
  instructions to avoid instructions being deleted while pointed to by
  iterator.
- Fixed ARMLoadStoreOptimizer bug exposed by this change in r311907.
- The pass no longer forwards COPYs to physical register uses, since
  doing so can break code that implicitly relies on the physical
  register number of the use.
- The pass no longer forwards COPYs to undef uses, since doing so
  can break the machine verifier by creating LiveRanges that don't
  end on a use (since the undef operand is not considered a use).

  This change extends MachineCopyPropagation to do COPY source forwarding.

  This change also extends the MachineCopyPropagation pass to be able to
  be run during register allocation, after physical registers have been
  assigned, but before the virtual registers have been re-written, which
  allows it to remove virtual register COPY LiveIntervals that become dead
  through the forwarding of all of their uses.

Craig Topper 2462a713ae [AVX-512] Don't use unmasked VMOVDQU8/16 for 8-bit or 16-bit element stores even when BWI instructions are supported. Always use VMOVDQA32/VMOVDQU32.
We were already using the 32 bit element opcode if BWI isn't enabled, but there's no reason to change opcode if we have BWI. We will still use the 8/16 opcodes for masked stores though.

This allows us to use the aligned opcode when we can which makes our test output more consistent between different modes. It also reduces the number of isel patterns we need.

This is a slight inconsistency with loads which default to 64 bit element opcodes. I'll probably rectify that in a future patch.

Craig Topper cb0e74975a [AVX-512] Remove patterns that select vmovdqu8/16 for unmasked loads. Prefer vmovdqa64/vmovdqu64 instead.
These were taking priority over the aligned load instructions since there is no vmovda8/16. I don't think there is really a difference between aligned and unaligned on newer cpus so I don't think it matters which instructions we use.

But with this change we reduce the size of the isel table a little and we allow the aligned information to pass through to the evex->vec pass and produce the same output has avx/avx2 in some cases.

I also generally dislike patterns rooted in a bitcast which these were.

Craig Topper ad140cfb68 [X86] Add comment string for broadcast loads from the constant pool.
Summary:
When broadcasting from the constant pool its useful to print out the final vector similar to what we do for normal moves from the constant pool.

I changed only a couple tests that were broadcast focused. One of them had been previously hand tweaked after running the script so that it could check the constant pool declaration. But I think this patch makes that unnecessary now since we can check the comment instead.

Petar Jovanovic 7b3a38ec30 [X86] Correct dwarf unwind information in function epilogue
CFI instructions that set appropriate cfa offset and cfa register are now
inserted in emitEpilogue() in X86FrameLowering.

Majority of the changes in this patch:

1. Ensure that CFI instructions do not affect code generation.
2. Enable maintaining correct information about cfa offset and cfa register
in a function when basic blocks are reordered, merged, split, duplicated.

These changes are target independent and described below.

Changed CFI instructions so that they:

1. are duplicable
2. are not counted as instructions when tail duplicating or tail merging
3. can be compared as equal

Add information to each MachineBasicBlock about cfa offset and cfa register
that are valid at its entry and exit (incoming and outgoing CFI info). Add
support for updating this information when basic blocks are merged, split,
duplicated, created. Add a verification pass (CFIInfoVerifier) that checks
that outgoing cfa offset and register of predecessor blocks match incoming
values of their successors.

Incoming and outgoing CFI information is used by a late pass
(CFIInstrInserter) that corrects CFA calculation rule for a basic block if
needed. That means that additional CFI instructions get inserted at basic
block beginning to correct the rule for calculating CFA. Having CFI
instructions in function epilogue can cause incorrect CFA calculation rule
for some basic blocks. This can happen if, due to basic block reordering,
or the existence of multiple epilogue blocks, some of the blocks have wrong
cfa offset and register values set by the epilogue block above them.

Patch by Violeta Vukobrat.

Sanjay Patel 15748d239e [x86] transform vector inc/dec to use -1 constant (PR33483)
Convert vector increment or decrement to sub/add with an all-ones constant:

add X, <1, 1...> --> sub X, <-1, -1...>
sub X, <1, 1...> --> add X, <-1, -1...>

The all-ones vector constant can be materialized using a pcmpeq instruction that is 
commonly recognized as an idiom (has no register dependency), so that's better than 
loading a splat 1 constant.

AVX512 uses 'vpternlogd' for 512-bit vectors because there is apparently no better
way to produce 512 one-bits.

The general advantages of this lowering are:
1. pcmpeq has lower latency than a memop on every uarch I looked at in Agner's tables, 
   so in theory, this could be better for perf, but...

2. That seems unlikely to affect any OOO implementation, and I can't measure any real 
   perf difference from this transform on Haswell or Jaguar, but...

3. It doesn't look like it from the diffs, but this is an overall size win because we 
   eliminate 16 - 64 constant bytes in the case of a vector load. If we're broadcasting 
   a scalar load (which might itself be a bug), then we're replacing a scalar constant 
   load + broadcast with a single cheap op, so that should always be smaller/better too.

4. This makes the DAG/isel output more consistent - we use pcmpeq already for padd x, -1 
   and psub x, -1, so we should use that form for +1 too because we can. If there's some
   reason to favor a constant load on some CPU, let's make the reverse transform for all
   of these cases (either here in the DAG or in a later machine pass).

This should fix:

Cong Hou bed60d35ed [X86][SSE] Detect AVG pattern during instruction combine for SSE2/AVX2/AVX512BW.
This patch detects the AVG pattern in vectorized code, which is simply
c = (a + b + 1) / 2, where a, b, and c have the same type which are vectors of
either unsigned i8 or unsigned i16. In the IR, i8/i16 will be promoted to
i32 before any arithmetic operations. The following IR shows such an example:

%1 = zext <N x i8> %a to <N x i32>
%2 = zext <N x i8> %b to <N x i32>
%3 = add nuw nsw <N x i32> %1, <i32 1 x N>
%4 = add nuw nsw <N x i32> %3, %2
%5 = lshr <N x i32> %N, <i32 1 x N>
%6 = trunc <N x i32> %5 to <N x i8>

and with this patch it will be converted to a X86ISD::AVG instruction.

The pattern recognition is done when combining instructions just before type
legalization during instruction selection. We do it here because after type
legalization, it is much more difficult to do pattern recognition based
on many instructions that are doing type conversions. Therefore, for
target-specific instructions (like X86ISD::AVG), we need to take care of type
legalization by ourselves. However, as X86ISD::AVG behaves similarly to
ISD::ADD, I am wondering if there is a way to legalize operands and result
types of X86ISD::AVG together with ISD::ADD. It seems that the current design
doesn't support this idea.

Tests are added for SSE2, AVX2, and AVX512BW and both i8 and i16 types of
variant vector sizes.
