Polly uses 'prevectorization' to enable outer loop vectorization. When
vectorizing an outer loop, we strip-mine <number-of-prevec-dims> loop
iterations which are than interchanged to the innermost level such that LLVM's
inner loop vectorizer (or Polly's simple vectorizer) can easily vectorize this
loop. The number of loop iterations to strip-mine is now configurable with the
option -polly-prevect-width=<number-of-prevec-dims>.
This is mostly a debugging option. We should probably add a heuristic that
derives the number of prevectorization dimensions from the target data and
the data types used.

This test was written to check the workings of IndependentBlocks on
arrays which doesn't do such transformations anymore. The test itself
is still useful to check that the region is rejected as SCoP.

executeScopConditionally would destroy a predecessor region if it the
scop's entry was the region's exit block by forking it to polly.start
and thus creating a secnd exit out of the region. This patch "shrinks"
the predecessor region s.t. polly.split_new_and_old is not the
region's exit anymore.

The SCEVExpander cannot deal with all SCEVs Polly allows in all kinds
of expressions. To this end we introduce a ScopExpander that handles
the additional expressions separatly and falls back to the
SCEVExpander for everything else.

This allows the code generation to continue working even if a needed
value (that is reloaded anyway) was not yet demoted. Instead of
failing it will now create the location for future demotion to memory
and load from that location. The stores will use the same location and
by construction execute before the load even if the textual order in
the generated AST is otherwise.

This test case crashes the scalar code generation as we are not
consistent with the usage of the assumed context. To be precise, we
use the assumed context for the dependence analysis but not to
restrict the domains of the statements.
A step by step explanation of the problem is given in the test case.

This option allows the user to provide additional information about parameter
values as an isl_set. To specify that N has the value 1024, we can provide

This change extends the BlockGenerator to not only allow Instructions as
base elements of scalar dependences, but any llvm::Value. This allows
us to code-generate scalar dependences which reference function arguments, as
they arise when moddeling read-only scalar dependences.

Before we only modeled PHI nodes if at least one incoming basic block was itself
part of the region, now we always model them except if all of their operands are
part of a single non-affine subregion which we model as a black-box.
This change only affects PHI nodes in the entry block, that have exactly one
incoming edge. Before this change, we did not model them and as a result code
generation would not know how to code generate them. With this change, code
generation can code generate them like any other PHI node.
This issue was exposed by r244606. Before this change simplifyRegion would have
moved these PHI nodes out of the SCoP, so we would never have tried to code
generate them. We could implement this behavior again, but changing the IR
after the scop has been modeled and transformed always adds a risk of us
invalidating earlier analysis results. It seems more save and overall also more
consistent to just model and handle this one-entry-edge PHI nodes like any
other PHI node in the scop.

The previous code had several problems:
For newly created BasicBlocks it did not (always) call RegionInfo::setRegionFor in order to update its analysis. At the moment RegionInfo does not verify its BBMap, but will in the future. This is fixed by determining the region new BBs belong to and set it accordingly. The new executeScopConditionally() requires accurate getRegionFor information.
Which block is created by SplitEdge depends on the incoming and outgoing edges of the blocks it connects, which makes handling its output more difficult than it needs to be. Especially for finding which block has been created an to assign a region to it for the setRegionFor problem above. This patch uses an implementation for splitEdge that always creates a block between the predecessor and successor. simplifyRegion has also been simplified by using SplitBlockPredecessors instead of SplitEdge. Isolating the entries and exits have been refectored into individual functions.
Previously simplifyRegion did more than just ensuring that there is only one entering and one exiting edge. It ensured that the entering block had no other outgoing edge which was necessary for executeScopConditionally(). Now the latter uses the alternative splitEdge implementation which can handle this situation so simplifyRegion really only needs to simplify the region.
Also, executeScopConditionally assumed that there can be no PHI nodes in blocks with one incoming edge. This is wrong and LCSSA deliberately produces such edges. However, previous passes ensured that there can be no such PHIs in exit nodes, but which will no longer hold in the future.
The new code that the property that it preserves the identity of region block (the property that the memory address of the BasicBlock containing the instructions remains the same; new blocks only contain PHI nodes and a terminator), especially the entry block. As a result, there is no need to update the reference to the BasicBlock of ScopStmt that contain its instructions because they have been moved to other basic blocks.

Besides other changes this version of isl contains a fundamental fix to memory
corruption issues we have seen with imath-32 backed isl_ints.
This update also contains a fix that ensures that the schedule-tree based
version of isl's dependence analysis takes the domain of the schedule into
account.

Even though read-only accesses to scalars outside of a scop do not need to be
modeled to derive valid transformations or to generate valid sequential code,
but information about them is useful when we considering memory footprint
analysis and/or kernel offloading.
llvm-svn: 243981
We use the branch instruction as the location at which a PHI-node write takes
place, instead of the PHI-node itself. This allows us to identify the
basic-block in a region statement which is on the incoming edge of the PHI-node
and for which the write access was originally introduced. As a result we can,
during code generation, avoid generating PHI-node write accesses for basic
blocks that do not preceed the PHI node without having to look at the IR
again.
This change fixes a bug which was introduced in r243420, when we started to
explicitly model PHI-node reads and writes, but dropped some additional checks
that where still necessary during code generation to not emit PHI-node writes
for basic-blocks that are not on incoming edges of the original PHI node.
Compared to the code before r243420 the new code does not need to inspect the IR
any more and we also do not generate multiple redundant writes.
llvm-svn: 243852
The schedule map we derive from a schedule tree map may map statements into
schedule spaces of different dimensionality. This change adds zero padding
to ensure just a single schedule space is used and the translation from
a union_map to an isl_multi_union_pw_aff does not fail.
llvm-svn: 243849
SCEVExpander, which we are using during code generation, only allows
instructions as insert locations, but breaks in case BasicBlock->end() iterators
are passed to it due to it trying to obtain the basic block in which code should
be generated by calling Instruction->getParent(), which is not defined for
->end() iterators.
This change adds an assert to Polly that ensures we only pass valid instructions
to SCEVExpander and it fixes one case, where we used IRBuilder->SetInsertBlock()
to set an ->end() insert location which was later passed to SCEVExpander.
In general, Polly is always trying to build up the CFG first, before we actually
insert instructions into the CFG sceleton. As a result, each basic block should
already have at least one branch instruction before we start adding code. Hence,
always requiring the IRBuilder insert location to be set to a real instruction
should always be possible.

Such codes are not interesting to optimize and most likely never appear in the
normal compilation flow. However, they show up during test case reduction with
bugpoint and trigger -- without this change -- an assert in
polly::MemoryAccess::foldAccess(). It is better to detect them in
ScopDetection itself and just bail out.

Schedule trees are a lot easier to work with, for both humans and machines. For
humans the more structured schedule representation is easier to reason about.
Together with the more abstract isl programming interface this can result in a
lot cleaner code (see this changeset). For machines, the structured schedule and
the fact that we now use explicit piecewise affine expressions instead of
integer maps makes it easier to generate code from this schedule tree. As a
result, we can already see a slight compile-time improvement -- for 3mm from
0m0.593s to 0m0.551s seconds (-7 %). More importantly, future optimizations such
as full-partial tile separation will most likely result in more streamlined code
to be generated.

Summary:
When translating PHI nodes into memory dependences during code generation we
require two kinds of memory. 'Normal memory' as for all scalar dependences and
'PHI node memory' to store the incoming values of the PHI node. With this
patch we now mark and track these two kinds of memories, which we previously
incorrectly marked as a single memory object.
Being aware of PHI node storage makes code generation easier, as we do not need
to guess what kind of storage a scalar reference requires. This simplifies the
code nicely.

Instead of flat schedules, we now use so-called schedule trees to represent the
execution order of the statements in a SCoP. Schedule trees make it a lot easier
to analyze, understand and modify properties of a schedule, as specific nodes
in the tree can be choosen and possibly replaced.
This patch does not yet fully move our DependenceInfo pass to schedule trees,
as some additional performance analysis is needed here. (In general schedule
trees should be faster in compile-time, as the more structured representation
is generally easier to analyze and work with). We also can not yet perform the
reduction analysis on schedule trees.

This removes old code that has been disabled since several weeks and was hidden
behind the flags -disable-polly-intra-scop-scalar-to-array=false and
-polly-model-phi-nodes=false. Earlier, Polly used to translate scalars and
PHI nodes to single element arrays, as this avoided the need for their special
handling in Polly. With Johannes' patches adding native support for such scalar
references to Polly, this code is not needed any more. After this commit both
-polly-prepare and -polly-independent are now mostly no-ops. Only a couple of
simple transformations still remain, but they are scheduled for removal too.
Thanks again to Johannes Doerfert for his nice work in making all this code
obsolete.

This makes the test cases nonaffine even if Polly some days gains support for
the srem instruction, an instruction which is currently not modeled but which
can clearly be modeled statically. A call to a function without definition
will always remain non-affine, as there is just insufficient static information
for it to be modeled more precisely.
