Apart from checking that GlobalVariable is a constant, we should check
that it's not a weak constant, in which case we can't propagate its
value.

We only checked that a global is initialized with constants, which is
incorrect. We should be checking that GlobalVariable *is* a constant,
not just initialized with it.

This change makes ScalarEvolution a stand-alone object and just produces
one from a pass as needed. Making this work well requires making the
object movable, using references instead of overwritten pointers in
a number of places, and other refactorings.
I've also wired it up to the new pass manager and added a RUN line to
a test to exercise it under the new pass manager. This includes basic
printing support much like with other analyses.
But there is a big and somewhat scary change here. Prior to this patch
ScalarEvolution was never *actually* invalidated!!! Re-running the pass
just re-wired up the various other analyses and didn't remove any of the
existing entries in the SCEV caches or clear out anything at all. This
might seem OK as everything in SCEV that can uses ValueHandles to track
updates to the values that serve as SCEV keys. However, this still means
that as we ran SCEV over each function in the module, we kept
accumulating more and more SCEVs into the cache. At the end, we would
have a SCEV cache with every value that we ever needed a SCEV for in the
entire module!!! Yowzers. The releaseMemory routine would dump all of
this, but that isn't realy called during normal runs of the pipeline as
far as I can see.
To make matters worse, there *is* actually a key that we don't update
with value handles -- there is a map keyed off of Loop*s. Because
LoopInfo *does* release its memory from run to run, it is entirely
possible to run SCEV over one function, then over another function, and
then lookup a Loop* from the second function but find an entry inserted
for the first function! Ouch.
To make matters still worse, there are plenty of updates that *don't*
trip a value handle. It seems incredibly unlikely that today GVN or
another pass that invalidates SCEV can update values in *just* such
a way that a subsequent run of SCEV will incorrectly find lookups in
a cache, but it is theoretically possible and would be a nightmare to
debug.
With this refactoring, I've fixed all this by actually destroying and
recreating the ScalarEvolution object from run to run. Technically, this
could increase the amount of malloc traffic we see, but then again it is
also technically correct. ;] I don't actually think we're suffering from
tons of malloc traffic from SCEV because if we were, the fact that we
never clear the memory would seem more likely to have come up as an
actual problem before now. So, I've made the simple fix here. If in fact
there are serious issues with too much allocation and deallocation,
I can work on a clever fix that preserves the allocations (while
clearing the data) between each run, but I'd prefer to do that kind of
optimization with a test case / benchmark that shows why we need such
cleverness (and that can test that we actually make it faster). It's
possible that this will make some things faster by making the SCEV
caches have higher locality (due to being significantly smaller) so
until there is a clear benchmark, I think the simple change is best.

This change adds the unroll metadata "llvm.loop.unroll.enable" which directs
the optimizer to unroll a loop fully if the trip count is known at compile time, and
unroll partially if the trip count is not known at compile time. This differs from
"llvm.loop.unroll.full" which explicitly does not unroll a loop if the trip count is not
known at compile time.
The "llvm.loop.unroll.enable" is intended to be added for loops annotated with
"#pragma unroll".

Create wrapper methods in the Function class for the OptimizeForSize and MinSize
attributes. We want to hide the logic of "or'ing" them together when optimizing
just for size (-Os).
Currently, we are not consistent about this and rely on a front-end to always set
OptimizeForSize (-Os) if MinSize (-Oz) is on. Thus, there are 18 FIXME changes here
that should be added as follow-on patches with regression tests.
This patch is NFC-intended: it just replaces existing direct accesses of the attributes
by the equivalent wrapper call.

through PHI nodes across iterations.
This patch teaches the new advanced loop unrolling heuristics to propagate
constants into the loop from the preheader and around the backedge after
simulating each iteration. This lets us brute force solve simple recurrances
that aren't modeled effectively by SCEV. It also makes it more clear why we
need to process the loop in-order rather than bottom-up which might otherwise
make much more sense (for example, for DCE).
This came out of an attempt I'm making to develop a principled way to account
for dead code in the unroll estimation. When I implemented
a forward-propagating version of that it produced incorrect results due to
failing to propagate *cost* between loop iterations through the PHI nodes, and
it occured to me we really should at least propagate simplifications across
those edges, and it is quite easy thanks to the loop being in canonical and
LCSSA form.

Enable runtime unrolling for loops with unroll count metadata ("#pragma unroll N")
and a runtime trip count. Also, do not unroll loops with unroll full metadata if the
loop has a runtime loop count. Previously, such loops would be unrolled with a
very large threshold (pragma-unroll-threshold) if runtime unrolled happened to be
enabled resulting in a very large (and likely unwise) unroll factor.

The new naming is (to me) much easier to understand. Here is a summary
of the new state of the world:
- '*Threshold' is the threshold for full unrolling. It is measured
against the estimated unrolled cost as computed by getUserCost in TTI
(or CodeMetrics, etc). We will exceed this threshold when unrolling
loops where unrolling exposes a significant degree of simplification
of the logic within the loop.
- '*PercentDynamicCostSavedThreshold' is the percentage of the loop's
estimated dynamic execution cost which needs to be saved by unrolling
to apply a discount to the estimated unrolled cost.
- '*DynamicCostSavingsDiscount' is the discount applied to the estimated
unrolling cost when the dynamic savings are expected to be high.
When actually analyzing the loop, we now produce both an estimated
unrolled cost, and an estimated rolled cost. The rolled cost is notably
a dynamic estimate based on our analysis of the expected execution of
each iteration.
While we're still working to build up the infrastructure for making
these estimates, to me it is much more clear *how* to make them better
when they have reasonably descriptive names. For example, we may want to
apply estimated (from heuristics or profiles) dynamic execution weights
to the *dynamic* cost estimates. If we start doing that, we would also
need to track the static unrolled cost and the dynamic unrolled cost, as
only the latter could reasonably be weighted by profile information.
This patch is sadly not without functionality change for the new unroll
analysis logic. Buried in the heuristic management were several things
that surprised me. For example, we never subtracted the optimized
instruction count off when comparing against the unroll heursistics!
I don't know if this just got lost somewhere along the way or what, but
with the new accounting of things, this is much easier to keep track of
and we use the post-simplification cost estimate to compare to the
thresholds, and use the dynamic cost reduction ratio to select whether
we can exceed the baseline threshold.
The old values of these flags also don't necessarily make sense. My
impression is that none of these thresholds or discounts have been tuned
yet, and so they're just arbitrary placehold numbers. As such, I've not
bothered to adjust for the fact that this is now a discount and not
a tow-tier threshold model. We need to tune all these values once the
logic is ready to be enabled.

accumulating estimated cost, and other loop-centric logic from the logic
used to analyze instructions in a particular iteration.
This makes the visitor very narrow in scope -- all it does is visit
instructions, update a map of simplified values, and return whether it
is able to optimize away a particular instruction.
The two cost metrics are now returned as an optional struct. When the
optional is left unengaged, there is no information about the unrolled
cost of the loop, when it is engaged the cost metrics are available to
run against the thresholds.

simplified model for use simulating each iteration into a separate
helper function that just returns the cache.
Building this cache had nothing to do with the rest of the unroll
analysis and so this removes an unnecessary coupling, etc. It should
also make it easier to think about the concept of providing fast cached
access to basic SCEV models as an orthogonal concept to the overall
unroll simulation.
I'd really like to see this kind of caching logic folded into SCEV
itself, it seems weird for us to provide it at this layer rather than
making repeated queries into SCEV fast all on their own.

checking and make the cache faster and smaller.
I had thought that using an APInt here would be useful, but I think
I was just wrong. Notably, we don't have to do any fancy overflow
checking, we can just bound the values as quite small and do the math in
a higher precision integer. I've switched to a signed integer so that
UBSan will even point out if we ever have integer overflow. I've added
various asserts to try to catch things as well and hoisted the overflow
checks so that we just leave the too-large offsets out of the SCEV-GEP
cache. This makes the value in the cache quite a bit smaller which is
probably worthwhile.
No functionality changed here (for trip counts under 1 billion).

Summary:
Now that the DataLayout is a mandatory part of the module, let's start
cleaning the codebase. This patch is a first attempt at doing that.
This patch is not exactly NFC as for instance some places were passing
a nullptr instead of the DataLayout, possibly just because there was a
default value on the DataLayout argument to many functions in the API.
Even though it is not purely NFC, there is no change in the
validation.
I turned as many pointer to DataLayout to references, this helped
figuring out all the places where a nullptr could come up.
I had initially a local version of this patch broken into over 30
independant, commits but some later commit were cleaning the API and
touching part of the code modified in the previous commits, so it
seemed cleaner without the intermediate state.

The issues with the new unroll analyzer are more fundamental than code
cleanup, algorithm, or data structure changes. I've sent an email to the

contained in it each time we try to add it to the worklist, just check

anyways.

vector.
In addition to dramatically reducing the work required for contrived
example loops, this also has to correct some serious latent bugs in the
cost computation. Previously, we might add an instruction onto the
worklist once for every load which it used and was simplified. Then we
would visit it many times and accumulate "savings" each time.
I mean, fortunately this couldn't matter for things like calls with 100s
of operands, but even for binary operators this code seems like it must
be double counting the savings.
I just noticed this by inspection and due to the runtime problems it can
introduce, I don't have any test cases for cases where the cost produced
by this routine is unacceptable.
llvm-svn: 229059
In the unroll analyzer, it is checking each user to see if that user
will become dead. However, it first checked if that user was missing
from the simplified values map, and then if was also missing from the
dead instructions set. We add everything from the simplified values map
to the dead instructions set, so the first step is completely subsumed
by the second. Moreover, the first step requires *inserting* something
into the simplified value map which isn't what we want at all.
This also replaces a dyn_cast with a cast as an instruction cannot be
used by a non-instruction.

check.
Also hoist this into the enqueue process as it is faster even than
testing the worklist set, we should just directly filter these out much
like we filter out constants and such.

We don't just want to handle duplicate operands within an instruction,
but also duplicates across operands of different instructions. I should
have gone straight to this, but I had convinced myself that it wasn't
going to be necessary briefly. I've come to my senses after chatting
more with Nick, and am now happier here.
llvm-svn: 229054
reasonably quickly.
I don't have a reduced test case, but for a version of FFMPEG, this
makes the loop unroller start finishing at all (after over 15 minutes of
running, it hadn't terminated for me, no idea if it was a true infloop
or just exponential work).
The key thing here is to check the DeadInstructions set when pulling
things off the worklist. Without this, we would re-walk the user list of
already dead instructions again and again and again. Consider phi nodes
with many, many operands and other patterns.
The other important aspect of this is that because we would keep
re-visiting instructions that were already known dead, we kept adding
their cost savings to this! This would cause our cost savings to be
*insanely* inflated from this.
While I was here, I also rotated the operand walk out of the worklist
loop to make the code easier to read. There is still work to be done to
minimize worklist traffic because we don't de-duplicate operands. This
means we may add the same instruction onto the worklist 1000s of times
if it shows up in 1000s of operansd to a PHI node for example.
Still, with this patch, the ffmpeg testcase I have finishes quickly and
I can't measure the runtime impact of the unroll analysis any more. I'll
probably try to do a few more cleanups to this code, but not sure how
much cleanup I can justify right now.
llvm-svn: 229038
readable.
The biggest thing that was causing me problems is recognizing the
references vs. poniters here. I also found that for maps naming the loop
variable as KeyValue helps make it obvious why you don't actually use it
directly. Finally, using 'auto' instead of 'User *' doesn't seem like
a good tradeoff. Much like with the other cases, I like to know its
a pointer, and 'User' is just as long and tells the reader a lot more.
