Jianzhou Zhao aedaa077f5 Reduce dropTriviallyDeadConstantArrays cumulative time percentage from 17% to 4%
The history of dropTriviallyDeadConstantArrays is like this. Because the appending linkage uses too much memory (http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20150105/251381.html), dropTriviallyDeadConstantArrays was introduced (https://reviews.llvm.org/rG81f385b0c6ea37dd7195a65be162c75bbdef29d2) to release unused constant arrays. Recently, dropTriviallyDeadConstantArrays was improved (https://reviews.llvm.org/rG81f385b0c6ea37dd7195a65be162c75bbdef29d2) to reduce its quadratic cost.

Our recent LTO profiling shows that when a target is large, 15-20% of time cost is from the SetVector::insert called by dropTriviallyDeadConstantArrays.

A large application has hundreds or thousands of modules; each module calls dropTriviallyDeadConstantArrays once for cleaning up tens of thousands of ConstantArrays a module has. In those ConstantArrays, usually around 5 can be deleted; a very very few deleted ConstantArrays reference other ConstantArrays: less than 10 out of millions.

Given this, the cost of SetVector::insert is mainly from the construction of WorkList from ArrayConstants. This motivated the fix that iterates ArrayConstants directly, and uses WorkList only when necessary.

Our evaluation shows that
1) The cumulative time percentage of dropTriviallyDeadConstantArrays is reduced from 15-17% to 4-6%.
2) For targets with LTO time > 20min, the time reduction is about 20%.
3) No observable performance impact for build without using LTO.

Ties Stuij 8c24f33158 [IR][BFloat] Add BFloat IR type
Summary:
The BFloat IR type is introduced to provide support for, initially, the BFloat16
datatype introduced with the Armv8.6 architecture (optional from Armv8.2
onwards). It has an 8-bit exponent and a 7-bit mantissa and behaves like an IEEE
754 floating point IR type.

This is part of a patch series upstreaming Armv8.6 features. Subsequent patches
will upstream intrinsics support and C-lang support for BFloat.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.

Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

Fedor Sergeev d29884c7e6 allow custom OptBisect classes set to LLVMContext
This patch introduces a way to set custom OptPassGate instances to LLVMContext.
A new instance field OptBisector and a new method setOptBisect() are added
to the LLVMContext classes. These changes allow to set a custom OptBisect class
that can make its own decisions on skipping optional passes.

Another important feature of this change is ability to set different instances
of OptPassGate to different LLVMContexts. So the different contexts can be used
independently in several compiling threads of one process.

One unit test is added.

Konstantin Zhuravlyov bb80d3e1d3 Enhance synchscope representation
OpenCL 2.0 introduces the notion of memory scopes in atomic operations to
  global and local memory. These scopes restrict how synchronization is
  achieved, which can result in improved performance.

  This change extends existing notion of synchronization scopes in LLVM to
  support arbitrary scopes expressed as target-specific strings, in addition to
  the already defined scopes (single thread, system).

  The LLVM IR and MIR syntax for expressing synchronization scopes has changed
  to use *syncscope("<scope>")*, where <scope> can be "singlethread" (this
  replaces *singlethread* keyword), or a target-specific name. As before, if
  the scope is not specified, it defaults to CrossThread/System scope.

  Implementation details:
    - Mapping from synchronization scope name/string to synchronization scope id
      is stored in LLVM context;
    - CrossThread/System and SingleThread scopes are pre-defined to efficiently
      check for known scopes without comparing strings;
    - Synchronization scope names are stored in SYNC_SCOPE_NAMES_BLOCK in
      the bitcode.

Reid Kleckner 96ab8726a3 [IR] De-virtualize ~Value to save a vptr
Summary:
Implements PR889

Removing the virtual table pointer from Value saves 1% of RSS when doing
LTO of llc on Linux. The impact on time was positive, but too noisy to
conclusively say that performance improved. Here is a link to the
spreadsheet with the original data:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1F4FHir0qYnV0MEp2sYYp_BuvnJgWlWPhWOwZ6LbW7W4/edit?usp=sharing

This change makes it invalid to directly delete a Value, User, or
Instruction pointer. Instead, such code can be rewritten to a null check
and a call Value::deleteValue(). Value objects tend to have their
lifetimes managed through iplist, so for the most part, this isn't a big
deal.  However, there are some places where LLVM deletes values, and
those places had to be migrated to deleteValue.  I have also created
llvm::unique_value, which has a custom deleter, so it can be used in
place of std::unique_ptr<Value>.

I had to add the "DerivedUser" Deleter escape hatch for MemorySSA, which
derives from User outside of lib/IR. Code in IR cannot include MemorySSA
headers or call the MemoryAccess object destructors without introducing
a circular dependency, so we need some level of indirection.
Unfortunately, no class derived from User may have any virtual methods,
because adding a virtual method would break User::getHungOffOperands(),
which assumes that it can find the use list immediately prior to the
User object. I've added a static_assert to the appropriate OperandTraits
templates to help people avoid this trap.

Reid Kleckner b518054b87 Rename AttributeSet to AttributeList
Summary:
This class is a list of AttributeSetNodes corresponding the function
prototype of a call or function declaration. This class used to be
called ParamAttrListPtr, then AttrListPtr, then AttributeSet. It is
typically accessed by parameter and return value index, so
"AttributeList" seems like a more intuitive name.

Rename AttributeSetImpl to AttributeListImpl to follow suit.

It's useful to rename this class so that we can rename AttributeSetNode
to AttributeSet later. AttributeSet is the set of attributes that apply
to a single function, argument, or return value.

Adam Nemet aad816083e [OptRemark,LDist] RFC: Add hotness attribute
Summary:
This is the first set of changes implementing the RFC from
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.llvm.devel/98334

This is a cross-sectional patch; rather than implementing the hotness
attribute for all optimization remarks and all passes in a patch set, it
implements it for the 'missed-optimization' remark for Loop
Distribution.  My goal is to shake out the design issues before scaling
it up to other types and passes.

Hotness is computed as an integer as the multiplication of the block
frequency with the function entry count.  It's only printed in opt
currently since clang prints the diagnostic fields directly.  E.g.:

  remark: /tmp/t.c:3:3: loop not distributed: use -Rpass-analysis=loop-distribute for more info (hotness: 300)

A new API added is similar to emitOptimizationRemarkMissed.  The
difference is that it additionally takes a code region that the
diagnostic corresponds to.  From this, hotness is computed using BFI.
The new API is exposed via an analysis pass so that it can be made
dependent on LazyBFI.  (Thanks to Hal for the analysis pass idea.)

This feature can all be enabled by setDiagnosticHotnessRequested in the
LLVM context.  If this is off, LazyBFI is not calculated (D22141) so
there should be no overhead.

A new command-line option is added to turn this on in opt.

My plan is to switch all user of emitOptimizationRemark* to use this
module instead.

Andrew Kaylor f0f279291c Initial implementation of optimization bisect support.
This patch implements a optimization bisect feature, which will allow optimizations to be selectively disabled at compile time in order to track down test failures that are caused by incorrect optimizations.

The bisection is enabled using a new command line option (-opt-bisect-limit).  Individual passes that may be skipped call the OptBisect object (via an LLVMContext) to see if they should be skipped based on the bisect limit.  A finer level of control (disabling individual transformations) can be managed through an addition OptBisect method, but this is not yet used.

The skip checking in this implementation is based on (and replaces) the skipOptnoneFunction check.  Where that check was being called, a new call has been inserted in its place which checks the bisect limit and the optnone attribute.  A new function call has been added for module and SCC passes that behaves in a similar way.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith ef06d445e0 IR: Use DenseSet instead of DenseMap for ConstantUniqueMap; NFC
Use a DenseSet instead of a DenseMap for constants in LLVMContextImpl.
Last time I looked at this was some time before r223588, when
DenseSet<V> had no advantage over DenseMap<V,char>.  After r223588,
there's a 50% memory savings.

This is all mechanical.  There were little bits of missing API from
DenseSet so I added the trivial implementations:

  - iterator::operator++(int)
  - template <class LookupKeyT> insert_as(ValueTy, LookupKeyT)

There should be no functionality change, just reduced memory consumption

David Majnemer b611e3f50e [IR] Add token types
This introduces the basic functionality to support "token types".
The motivation stems from the need to perform operations on a Value
whose provenance cannot be obscured.

There are several applications for such a type but my immediate
motivation stems from WinEH.  Our personality routine enforces a
single-entry - single-exit regime for cleanups.  After several rounds of
optimizations, we may be left with a terminator whose "cleanup-entry
block" is not entirely clear because control flow has merged two
cleanups together.  We have experimented with using labels as operands
inside of instructions which are not terminators to indicate where we
came from but found that LLVM does not expect such exotic uses of
BasicBlocks.

Instead, we can use this new type to clearly associate the "entry point"
and "exit point" of our cleanup.  This is done by having the cleanuppad
yield a Token and consuming it at the cleanupret.
The token type makes it impossible to obscure or otherwise hide the
Value, making it trivial to track the relationship between the two
points.

What is the burden to the optimizer?  Well, it turns out we have already
paid down this cost by accepting that there are certain calls that we
are not permitted to duplicate, optimizations have to watch out for
such instructions anyway.  There are additional places in the optimizer
that we will probably have to update but early examination has given me
the impression that this will not be heroic.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 55ca964e94 DI: Disallow uniquable DICompileUnits

The backend is liable to start relying on that (if it hasn't already),
so make uniquable `DICompileUnit`s illegal and automatically upgrade old
bitcode.  This is a nice cleanup, since we can remove an unnecessary
`DenseSet` (and the associated uniquing info) from `LLVMContextImpl`.

Almost all the testcases were updated with this script:

    git grep -e '= !DICompileUnit' -l -- test |

Philip Reames 56a03938f7 Revert GCStrategy ownership changes
This change reverts the interesting parts of 226311 (and 227046).  This change introduced two problems, and I've been convinced that an alternate approach is preferrable anyways.

The bugs were:
- Registery appears to require all users be within the same linkage unit.  After this change, asking for "statepoint-example" in Transform/ would sometimes get you nullptr, whereas asking the same question in CodeGen would return the right GCStrategy.  The correct long term fix is to get rid of the utter hack which is Registry, but I don't have time for that right now.  227046 appears to have been an attempt to fix this, but I don't believe it does so completely.
- GCMetadataPrinter::finishAssembly was being called more than once per GCStrategy.  Each Strategy was being added to the GCModuleInfo multiple times.

Once I get time again, I'm going to split GCModuleInfo into the gc.root specific part and a GCStrategy owning Analysis pass.  I'm probably also going to kill off the Registry.  Once that's done, I'll move the new GCStrategyAnalysis and all built in GCStrategies into Analysis.  (As original suggested by Chandler.)  This will accomplish my original goal of being able to access GCStrategy from Transform/  without adding all of the builtin GCs to IR/.

Philip Reames 2b45395876 Move ownership of GCStrategy objects to LLVMContext
Note: This change ended up being slightly more controversial than expected.  Chandler has tentatively okayed this for the moment, but I may be revisiting this in the near future after we settle some high level questions.

Rather than have the GCStrategy object owned by the GCModuleInfo - which is an immutable analysis pass used mainly by gc.root - have it be owned by the LLVMContext. This simplifies the ownership logic (i.e. can you have two instances of the same strategy at once?), but more importantly, allows us to access the GCStrategy in the middle end optimizer. To this end, I add an accessor through Function which becomes the canonical way to get at a GCStrategy instance.

In the near future, this will allows me to move some of the checks from http://reviews.llvm.org/D6808 into the Verifier itself, and to introduce optimization legality predicates for some of the recent additions to InstCombine. (These will follow as separate changes.)

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith e16d587515 IR: Drop metadata references more aggressively during teardown
Sometimes teardown happens before the debug info graph is complete
(e.g., when clang throws an error).  In that case, `MDNode`s will still
have RAUW, so deleting constants that the `MDNode`s point at will be
relatively expensive -- it'll cause re-uniquing all up the chain (what
I've been referring to as "teardown madness").

So, drop references *before* deleting constants.  We need to drop a few
more references now: the metadata side of the metadata/value bridges
needs to be dropped off the cliff along with the rest of it (previously,
the bridges were cleaned before we did anything with the `MDNode`s).

There's no real functionality change here -- state before and after
`LLVMContextImpl::~LLVMContextImpl()` is unchanged -- so no testcase.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith de03ff5721 IR: Add MDLocation class
Add a new subclass of `UniquableMDNode`, `MDLocation`.  This will be the
IR version of `DebugLoc` and `DILocation`.  The goal is to rename this
to `DILocation` once the IR classes supersede the `DI`-prefixed
wrappers.

This isn't used anywhere yet.  Part of PR21433.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 6b1f4659f9 IR: Stop erasing MDNodes from uniquing sets during teardown
Stop erasing `MDNode`s from the uniquing sets in `LLVMContextImpl`
during teardown (in particular, during
`UniquableMDNode::~UniquableMDNode()`).  Although it's currently
feasible, there isn't any clear benefit and it may not be feasible for
other subclasses (which don't explicitly store the lookup hash).

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 118632dbf6 IR: Split GenericMDNode into MDTuple and UniquableMDNode
Split `GenericMDNode` into two classes (with more descriptive names).

  - `UniquableMDNode` will be a common subclass for `MDNode`s that are
    sometimes uniqued like constants, and sometimes 'distinct'.

    This class gets the (short-lived) RAUW support and related API.

  - `MDTuple` is the basic tuple that has always been returned by
    `MDNode::get()`.  This is as opposed to more specific nodes to be
    added soon, which have additional fields, custom assembly syntax,
    and extra semantics.

    This class gets the hash-related logic, since other sublcasses of
    `UniquableMDNode` may need to hash based on other fields.

To keep this diff from getting too big, I've added casts to `MDTuple`
that won't really scale as new subclasses of `UniquableMDNode` are
added, but I'll clean those up incrementally.

(No functionality change intended.)

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 5bf8fef580 IR: Split Metadata from Value
Split `Metadata` away from the `Value` class hierarchy, as part of
PR21532.  Assembly and bitcode changes are in the wings, but this is the
bulk of the change for the IR C++ API.

I have a follow-up patch prepared for `clang`.  If this breaks other
sub-projects, I apologize in advance :(.  Help me compile it on Darwin
I'll try to fix it.  FWIW, the errors should be easy to fix, so it may
be simpler to just fix it yourself.

This breaks the build for all metadata-related code that's out-of-tree.
Rest assured the transition is mechanical and the compiler should catch
almost all of the problems.

Here's a quick guide for updating your code:

  - `Metadata` is the root of a class hierarchy with three main classes:
    `MDNode`, `MDString`, and `ValueAsMetadata`.  It is distinct from
    the `Value` class hierarchy.  It is typeless -- i.e., instances do
    *not* have a `Type`.

  - `MDNode`'s operands are all `Metadata *` (instead of `Value *`).

  - `TrackingVH<MDNode>` and `WeakVH` referring to metadata can be
    replaced with `TrackingMDNodeRef` and `TrackingMDRef`, respectively.

    If you're referring solely to resolved `MDNode`s -- post graph
    construction -- just use `MDNode*`.

  - `MDNode` (and the rest of `Metadata`) have only limited support for
    `replaceAllUsesWith()`.

    As long as an `MDNode` is pointing at a forward declaration -- the
    result of `MDNode::getTemporary()` -- it maintains a side map of its
    uses and can RAUW itself.  Once the forward declarations are fully
    resolved RAUW support is dropped on the ground.  This means that
    uniquing collisions on changing operands cause nodes to become
    "distinct".  (This already happened fairly commonly, whenever an
    operand went to null.)

    If you're constructing complex (non self-reference) `MDNode` cycles,
    you need to call `MDNode::resolveCycles()` on each node (or on a
    top-level node that somehow references all of the nodes).  Also,
    don't do that.  Metadata cycles (and the RAUW machinery needed to
    construct them) are expensive.

  - An `MDNode` can only refer to a `Constant` through a bridge called
    `ConstantAsMetadata` (one of the subclasses of `ValueAsMetadata`).

    As a side effect, accessing an operand of an `MDNode` that is known
    to be, e.g., `ConstantInt`, takes three steps: first, cast from
    `Metadata` to `ConstantAsMetadata`; second, extract the `Constant`;
    third, cast down to `ConstantInt`.

    The eventual goal is to introduce `MDInt`/`MDFloat`/etc. and have
    metadata schema owners transition away from using `Constant`s when
    the type isn't important (and they don't care about referring to
    `GlobalValue`s).

    In the meantime, I've added transitional API to the `mdconst`
    namespace that matches semantics with the old code, in order to
    avoid adding the error-prone three-step equivalent to every call
    site.  If your old code was:

        MDNode *N = foo();
        bar(isa             <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
        baz(cast            <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
        bak(cast_or_null    <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
        bat(dyn_cast        <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
        bay(dyn_cast_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));

    you can trivially match its semantics with:

        MDNode *N = foo();
        bar(mdconst::hasa               <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
        baz(mdconst::extract            <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
        bak(mdconst::extract_or_null    <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
        bat(mdconst::dyn_extract        <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
        bay(mdconst::dyn_extract_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));

    and when you transition your metadata schema to `MDInt`:

        MDNode *N = foo();
        bar(isa             <MDInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
        baz(cast            <MDInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
        bak(cast_or_null    <MDInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
        bat(dyn_cast        <MDInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
        bay(dyn_cast_or_null<MDInt>(N->getOperand(4)));

  - A `CallInst` -- specifically, intrinsic instructions -- can refer to
    metadata through a bridge called `MetadataAsValue`.  This is a
    subclass of `Value` where `getType()->isMetadataTy()`.

    `MetadataAsValue` is the *only* class that can legally refer to a
    `LocalAsMetadata`, which is a bridged form of non-`Constant` values
    like `Argument` and `Instruction`.  It can also refer to any other
    `Metadata` subclass.

(I'll break all your testcases in a follow-up commit, when I propagate
this change to assembly.)

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith c23610b1e4 IR: Move MDNode operands from the back to the front
Having the operands at the back prevents subclasses from safely adding
fields.  Move them to the front.

Instead of replicating the custom `malloc()`, `free()` and `DestroyFlag`
logic that was there before, overload `new` and `delete`.

I added calls to a new `GenericMDNode::dropAllReferences()` in
`LLVMContextImpl::~LLVMContextImpl()`.  There's a maze of callbacks
happening during teardown, and this resolves them before we enter
the destructors.

Part of PR21532.
