pass manager passes' `run` methods.
This removes a bunch of SFINAE goop from the pass manager and just
requires pass authors to accept `AnalysisManager<IRUnitT> &` as a dead
argument. This is a small price to pay for the simplicity of the system
as a whole, despite the noise that changing it causes at this stage.
This will also helpfull allow us to make the signature of the run
methods much more flexible for different kinds af passes to support
things like intelligently updating the pass's progression over IR units.
While this touches many, many, files, the changes are really boring.
Mostly made with the help of my trusty perl one liners.
Thanks to Sean and Hal for bouncing ideas for this with me in IRC.

This was originally a pointer to support pass managers which didn't use
AnalysisManagers. However, that doesn't realistically come up much and
the complexity of supporting it doesn't really make sense.
In fact, *many* parts of the pass manager were just assuming the pointer
was never null already. This at least makes it much more explicit and
clear.
llvm-svn: 263219
clarify their purpose.
Firstly, call them "...Mixin" types so it is clear that there is no
type hierarchy being formed here. Secondly, use the term 'Info' to
clarify that they aren't adding any interesting *semantics* to the
passes or analyses, just exposing APIs used by the management layer to
get information about the pass or analysis.
Thanks to Manuel for helping pin down the naming confusion here and come
up with effective names to address it.
In case you already have some out-of-tree stuff, the following should be
roughly what you want to update:

work in the face of the limitations of DLLs and templated static
variables.
This requires passes that use the AnalysisBase mixin provide a static
variable themselves. So as to keep their APIs clean, I've made these
private and befriended the CRTP base class (which is the common
practice).
I've added documentation to AnalysisBase for why this is necessary and
at what point we can go back to the much simpler system.
This is clearly a better pattern than the extern template as it caught
*numerous* places where the template magic hadn't been applied and
things were "just working" but would eventually have broken
mysteriously.
llvm-svn: 263216
analyses in the new pass manager.
These just handle really basic stuff: turning a type name into a string
statically that is nice to print in logs, and getting a static unique ID
for each analysis.
Sadly, the format of passes in anonymous namespaces makes using their
names in tests really annoying so I've customized the names of the no-op
passes to keep tests sane to read.
This is the first of a few simplifying refactorings for the new pass
manager that should reduce boilerplate and confusion.
llvm-svn: 262004
analysis passes, support pre-registering analyses, and use that to
implement parsing and pre-registering a custom alias analysis pipeline.
With this its possible to configure the particular alias analysis
pipeline used by the AAManager from the commandline of opt. I've updated
the test to show this effectively in use to build a pipeline including
basic-aa as part of it.
My big question for reviewers are around the APIs that are used to
expose this functionality. Are folks happy with pass-by-lambda to do
pass registration? Are folks happy with pre-registering analyses as
a way to inject customized instances of an analysis while still using
the registry for the general case?
Other thoughts of course welcome. The next round of patches will be to
add the rest of the alias analyses into the new pass manager and wire
them up here so that they can be used from opt. This will require
extending the (somewhate limited) functionality of AAManager w.r.t.
module passes.

manager.
This starts to allow us to test analyses more easily, but it's really
only the beginning. Some of the code here is still untestable without
manual changes to create analysis passes, but I wanted to factor it into
a small of chunks as possible.
Next up in order to be able to test things are, in no particular order:
- No-op analyses passes so we don't have to use real ones to exercise
the pass maneger itself.
- Automatic way of generating dummy passes that require an analysis be
run, including a variant that calls a 'print' method on a pass to make
it even easier to print out the results of an analysis.
- Dummy passes that invalidate all analyses for their IR unit so we can
test invalidation and re-runs.
- Automatic way to print each analysis pass as it is re-run.
- Automatic but optional verification of analysis passes everywhere
possible.
I'm not claiming I'll get to all of these immediately, but that's what
is in the pipeline at some stage. I'm fleshing out exactly what I need
and what to prioritize by working on converting analyses and then trying
to test the conversion. =]

units.
This was debated back and forth a bunch, but using references is now
clearly cleaner. Of all the code written using pointers thus far, in
only one place did it really make more sense to have a pointer. In most
cases, this just removes immediate dereferencing from the code. I think
it is much better to get errors on null IR units earlier, potentially
at compile time, than to delay it.
Most notably, the legacy pass manager uses references for its routines
and so as more and more code works with both, the use of pointers was
likely to become really annoying. I noticed this when I ported the
domtree analysis over and wrote the entire thing with references only to
have it fail to compile. =/ It seemed better to switch now than to
delay. We can, of course, revisit this is we learn that references are
really problematic in the API.

order to use the single assignment. That's probably worth doing for
a lot of these types anyways as they may have non-trivial moves and so
getting copy elision in more places seems worthwhile.
I've tried to add some tests that actually catch this mistake, and one
of the types is now well tested but the others' tests still fail to
catch this. I'll keep working on tests, but this gets the core pattern
right.

it is available. Also make the move semantics sufficiently correct to
tolerate move-only passes, as the PassManagers *are* move-only passes.

This compiles with no changes to clang/lld/lldb with MSVC and includes
overloads to various functions which are used by those projects and llvm
which have OwningPtr's as parameters. This should allow out of tree
projects some time to move. There are also no changes to libs/Target,
which should help out of tree targets have time to move, if necessary.
llvm-svn: 203083
I think this was just over-eagerness on my part. The analysis results
need to often be non-const because they need to (in some cases at least)
be updated by the transformation pass in order to remain correct. It
also makes lazy analyses (a common case) needlessly annoying to write in
order to make their entire state mutable.

No support for analyses here, that will come later. This already helps
show parts of the opt commandline integration that isn't working. Tests

are part of the core IR library in order to support dumping and other
basic functionality.
Rename the 'Assembly' include directory to 'AsmParser' to match the
library name and the only functionality left their -- printing has been
in the core IR library for quite some time.
Update all of the #includes to match.
All of this started because I wanted to have the layering in good shape
before I started adding support for printing LLVM IR using the new pass
infrastructure, and commandline support for the new pass infrastructure.
llvm-svn: 198688
proxy. This lets a function pass query a module analysis manager.
However, the interface is const to indicate that only cached results can
be safely queried.
With this, I think the new pass manager is largely functionally complete
for modules and analyses. Still lots to test, and need to generalize to
SCCs and Loops, and need to build an adaptor layer to support the use of
existing Pass objects in the new managers.
llvm-svn: 195538
results.
This is the last piece of infrastructure needed to effectively support
querying *up* the analysis layers. The next step will be to introduce
a proxy which provides access to those layers with appropriate use of
const to direct queries to the safe interface.
llvm-svn: 195525
one function's analyses are invalidated at a time. Also switch the
preservation of the proxy to *fully* preserve the lower (function)
analyses.
Combined, this gets both upward and downward analysis invalidation to
a point I'm happy with:
- A function pass invalidates its function analyses, and its parent's
module analyses.
- A module pass invalidates all of its functions' analyses including the
set of which functions are in the module.
- A function pass can preserve a module analysis pass.
- If all function passes preserve a module analysis pass, that
preservation persists. If any doesn't the module analysis is
invalidated.
- A module pass can opt into managing *all* function analysis
invalidation itself or *none*.
- The conservative default is none, and the proxy takes the maximally
conservative approach that works even if the set of functions has
changed.
- If a module pass opts into managing function analysis invalidation it
has to propagate the invalidation itself, the proxy just does nothing.
The only thing really missing is a way to query for a cached analysis or
nothing at all. With this, function passes can more safely request
a cached module analysis pass without fear of it accidentally running
part way through.
llvm-svn: 195519
run methods of the analysis passes.
Also generalizes and re-uses the SFINAE for transformation passes so
that users can write an analysis pass and only accept an analysis
manager if that is useful to their pass.
This completes the plumbing to make an analysis manager available
through every pass's run method if desired so that passes no longer need
to be constructed around them.
llvm-svn: 195451
Since the analysis managers were split into explicit function and module
analysis managers, it is now completely trivial to specify this when
building up the concept and model types explicitly, and it is impossible
to end up with a type error at run time. We instantiate a template when
registering a pass that will enforce the requirement at a type-system
level, and we produce a dynamic error on all the other query paths to
the analysis manager if the pass in question isn't registered.
llvm-svn: 195447
This is supposed to be the whole type of the IR unit, and so we
shouldn't pass a pointer to it but rather the value itself. In turn, we
need to provide a 'Module *' as that type argument (for example). This
will become more relevant with SCCs or other units which may not be
passed as a pointer type, but also brings consistency with the
transformation pass templates.
llvm-svn: 195445
rather than the constructors of passes.
This simplifies the APIs of passes significantly and removes an error
prone pattern where the *same* manager had to be given to every
different layer. With the new API the analysis managers themselves will
have to be cross connected with proxy analyses that allow a pass at one
layer to query for the analysis manager of another layer. The proxy will
both expose a handle to the other layer's manager and it will provide
the invalidation hooks to ensure things remain consistent across layers.
Finally, the outer-most analysis manager has to be passed to the run
method of the outer-most pass manager. The rest of the propagation is
automatic.
I've used SFINAE again to allow passes to completely disregard the
analysis manager if they don't need or want to care. This helps keep
simple things simple for users of the new pass manager.
Also, the system specifically supports passing a null pointer into the
outer-most run method if your pass pipeline neither needs nor wants to
deal with analyses. I find this of dubious utility as while some
*passes* don't care about analysis, I'm not sure there are any
real-world users of the pass manager itself that need to avoid even
creating an analysis manager. But it is easy to support, so there we go.
Finally I renamed the module proxy for the function analysis manager to
the more verbose but less confusing name of
FunctionAnalysisManagerModuleProxy. I hate this name, but I have no idea
what else to name these things. I'm expecting in the fullness of time to
potentially have the complete cross product of types at the proxy layer:
{Module,SCC,Function,Loop,Region}AnalysisManager{Module,SCC,Function,Loop,Region}Proxy
(except for XAnalysisManagerXProxy which doesn't make any sense)
This should make it somewhat easier to do the next phases which is to
build the upward proxy and get its invalidation correct, as well as to
make the invalidation within the Module -> Function mapping pass be more
fine grained so as to invalidate fewer fuction analyses.
After all of the proxy analyses are done and the invalidation working,
I'll finally be able to start working on the next two fun fronts: how to
adapt an existing pass to work in both the legacy pass world and the new
one, and building the SCC, Loop, and Region counterparts. Fun times!
llvm-svn: 195400
it is completely optional, and sink the logic for handling the preserved
analysis set into it.
This allows us to implement the delegation logic desired in the proxy
module analysis for the function analysis manager where if the proxy
itself is preserved we assume the set of functions hasn't changed and we
do a fine grained invalidation by walking the functions in the module
and running the invalidate for them all at the manager level and letting
it try to invalidate any passes.
This in turn makes it blindingly obvious why we should hoist the
invalidate trait and have two collections of results. That allows
handling invalidation for almost all analyses without indirect calls and
it allows short circuiting when the preserved set is all.
llvm-svn: 195338
type and detect whether or not it provides an 'invalidate' member the
analysis manager should use.
This lets the overwhelming common case of *not* caring about custom
behavior when an analysis is invalidated be the the obvious default
behavior with no code written by the author of an analysis. Only when
they write code specifically to handle invalidation does it get used.
Both cases are actually covered by tests here. The test analysis uses
the default behavior, and the proxy module analysis actually has custom
behavior on invalidation that is firing correctly. (In fact, this is the
analysis which was the primary motivation for having custom invalidation
behavior in the first place.)
llvm-svn: 195332
This proxy will fill the role of proxying invalidation events down IR
unit layers so that when a module changes we correctly invalidate
function analyses. Currently this is a very coarse solution -- any
change blows away the entire thing -- but the next step is to make
invalidation handling more nuanced so that we can propagate specific
amounts of invalidation from one layer to the next.
The test is extended to place a module pass between two function pass
managers each of which have preserved function analyses which get
correctly invalidated by the module pass that might have changed what
functions are even in the module.
llvm-svn: 195304
This adds a new set-like type which represents a set of preserved
analysis passes. The set is managed via the opaque PassT::ID() void*s.
The expected convenience templates for interacting with specific passes
are provided. It also supports a symbolic "all" state which is
represented by an invalid pointer in the set. This state is nicely
saturating as it comes up often. Finally, it supports intersection which
is used when finding the set of preserved passes after N different
transforms.
The pass API is then changed to return the preserved set rather than
a bool. This is much more self-documenting than the previous system.
Returning "none" is a conservatively correct solution just like
returning "true" from todays passes and not marking any passes as
preserved. Passes can also be dynamically preserved or not throughout
the run of the pass, and whatever gets returned is the binding state.
Finally, preserving "all" the passes is allowed for no-op transforms
that simply can't harm such things.
Finally, the analysis managers are changed to instead of blindly
invalidating all of the analyses, invalidate those which were not
preserved. This should rig up all of the basic preservation
functionality. This also correctly combines the preservation moving up
from one IR-layer to the another and the preservation aggregation across
N pass runs. Still to go is incrementally correct invalidation and
preservation across IR layers incrementally during N pass runs. That
will wait until we have a device for even exposing analyses across IR
layers.
While the core of this change is obvious, I'm not happy with the current
testing, so will improve it to cover at least some of the invalidation
that I can test easily in a subsequent commit.
llvm-svn: 195241
The FunctionPassManager is now itself a function pass. When run over
a function, it runs all N of its passes over that function. This is the
1:N mapping in the pass dimension only. This allows it to be used in
either a ModulePassManager or potentially some other manager that
works on IR units which are supersets of Functions.
This commit also adds the obvious adaptor to map from a module pass to
a function pass, running the function pass across every function in the
module.
The test has been updated to use this new pattern.
llvm-svn: 195192
a module-specific interface. This is the first of many steps necessary
to generalize the infrastructure such that we can support both
a Module-to-Function and Module-to-SCC-to-Function pass manager
nestings.
After a *lot* of attempts that never worked and didn't even make it to
a committable state, it became clear that I had gotten the layering
design of analyses flat out wrong. Four days later, I think I have most
of the plan for how to correct this, and I'm starting to reshape the
code into it. This is just a baby step I'm afraid, but starts separating
the fundamentally distinct concepts of function analysis passes and
module analysis passes so that in subsequent steps we can effectively
layer them, and have a consistent design for the eventual SCC layer.
As part of this, I've started some interface changes to make passes more
regular. The module pass accepts the module in the run method, and some
of the constructor parameters are gone. I'm still working out exactly
where constructor parameters vs. method parameters will be used, so
I expect this to fluctuate a bit.
This actually makes the invalidation less "correct" at this phase,
because now function passes don't invalidate module analysis passes, but
that was actually somewhat of a misfeature. It will return in a better
factored form which can scale to other units of IR. The documentation
has gotten less verbose and helpful.
llvm-svn: 195189
AnalysisManager. All this method did was assert something and we have
a perfectly good way to trigger that assert from the query path.
llvm-svn: 194947
more smarts in it. This is where most of the interesting logic that used
to live in the implicit-scheduling-hackery of the old pass manager will
live.
Like the previous commits, note that this is a very early prototype!
I expect substantial changes before this is ready to use.
The core of the design is the following:
- We have an AnalysisManager which can be used across a series of
passes over a module.
- The code setting up a pass pipeline registers the analyses available
with the manager.
- Individual transform passes can check than an analysis manager
provides the analyses they require in order to fail-fast.
- There is *no* implicit registration or scheduling.
- Analysis passes are different from other passes: they produce an
analysis result that is cached and made available via the analysis
manager.
- Cached results are invalidated automatically by the pass managers.
- When a transform pass requests an analysis result, either the analysis
is run to produce the result or a cached result is provided.
There are a few aspects of this design that I *know* will change in
subsequent commits:
- Currently there is no "preservation" system, that needs to be added.
- All of the analysis management should move up to the analysis library.
- The analysis management needs to support at least SCC passes. Maybe
loop passes. Living in the analysis library will facilitate this.
- Need support for analyses which are *both* module and function passes.
- Need support for pro-actively running module analyses to have cached
results within a function pass manager.
- Need a clear design for "immutable" passes.
- Need support for requesting cached results when available and not
re-running the pass even if that would be necessary.
- Need more thorough testing of all of this infrastructure.
There are other aspects that I view as open questions I'm hoping to
resolve as I iterate a bit on the infrastructure, and especially as
I start writing actual passes against this.
- Should we have separate management layers for function, module, and
SCC analyses? I think "yes", but I'm not yet ready to switch the code.
Adding SCC support will likely resolve this definitively.
- How should the 'require' functionality work? Should *that* be the only
way to request results to ensure that passes always require things?
- How should preservation work?
- Probably some other things I'm forgetting. =]
Look forward to more patches in shorter order now that this is in place.
llvm-svn: 194538
This is still just a skeleton. I'm trying to pull together the
experimentation I've done into committable chunks, and this is the first
coherent one. Others will follow in hopefully short order that move this
more toward a useful initial implementation. I still expect the design
to continue evolving in small ways as I work through the different
requirements and features needed here though.
Keep in mind, all of this is off by default.
Currently, this mostly exercises the use of a polymorphic smart pointer
and templates to hide the polymorphism for the pass manager from the
pass implementation. The next step will be more significant, adding the
first framework of analysis support.

give the files a legacy prefix in the right directory. Use forwarding
headers in the old locations to paper over the name change for most
clients during the transitional period.
No functionality changed here! This is just clearing some space to
reduce renaming churn later on with a new system.
Even when the new stuff starts to go in, it is going to be hidden behind
a flag and off-by-default as it is still WIP and under development.
This patch is specifically designed so that very little out-of-tree code
has to change. I'm going to work as hard as I can to keep that the case.
Only direct forward declarations of the PassManager class are impacted
by this change.
