0f03390710 Explode store of arrays in instcombine
Summary: This is the last step toward supporting aggregate memory access in instcombine. This explodes stores of arrays into a serie of stores for each element, allowing them to be optimized.

e5eb067cda Re-apply r238452, the bug was in clang and was fixed in r260567.
Original commit message:
[InstCombine] Fold IntToPtr and PtrToInt into preceding loads.

Currently we only fold a BitCast into a Load when the BitCast is its
only user.

Do the same for any no-op cast.

d84e67e364 Set load alignment on aggregate loads.
When optimizing a extractvalue(load), we generate a load from the
aggregate type.  This load didn't have alignment set and so would
get the alignment of the type.  This breaks when the type is packed
and so the alignment should be lower.

For example, loading { int, int } would give us alignment of 4, but
the original load from this type may have an alignment of 1 if packed.

185966c650 [InstCombine] Revert r238452: Fold IntToPtr and PtrToInt into preceding loads.
According to git bisect, this is the root cause of a miscompile for Regex in
libLLVMSupport. I am still working on reducing a test case.
The actual bug may be elsewhere and this commit just exposed it.

Anyway, at the moment, to reproduce, follow these steps:
1. Build clang and libLTO in release mode.
2. Create a new build directory <stage2> and cd into it.
3. Use clang and libLTO from #1 to build llvm-extract in Release mode + asserts
   using -O2 -flto
4. Run llvm-extract  -ralias '.*bar' -S test/Other/extract-alias.ll

Result:
program doesn't contain global named '.*bar'!

Expected result:
@a0a0bar = alias void ()* @bar
@a0bar = alias void ()* @bar

declare void @bar()

Note: In step #3, if you don't use lto or asserts, the miscompile disappears.

257fee7c73 Instcombine: destructor loads of structs that do not contains padding
For non padded structs, we can just proceed and deaggregate them.
We don't want ot do this when there is padding in the struct as to not
lose information about this padding (the subsequents passes would then
try hard to preserve the padding, which is undesirable).

Also update extractvalue.ll and cast.ll so that they use structs with padding.

Remove the FIXME in the extractvalue of laod case as the non padded case is
handled when processing the load, and we don't want to do it on the padded
case.

the behavior closer to that model by making upcasts explicit. Downcasts

Following dyn_cast as a mental model checking whether a Value *V isa
CallSite now looks like this: 
  if (auto CS = CallSite(V)) // think dyn_cast
instead of:
  if (CallSite CS = V)

This is an extra token but I think it is slightly clearer. Making the

argument.

d747f3f3fe instcombine: alloca: Canonicalize scalar allocation array size
As a follow-up to r232200, add an `-instcombine` to canonicalize scalar
allocations to `i32 1`.  Since r232200, `iX 1` (for X != 32) are only
created by RAUWs, so this shouldn't fire too often.  Nevertheless, it's
a cheap check and a nice cleanup.

5c71858076 instcombine: alloca: Limit array size type promotion
Move type promotion of the size of the array allocation to the end of
`simplifyAllocaArraySize()`.  This avoids promoting the type of the
array size if it's a `ConstantInt`, since the next -instcombine
iteration will drop it to a scalar allocation anyway.  Similarly, this
avoids promoting the type if it's an `UndefValue`, in which case the
alloca gets RAUW'ed.

This is NFC when considered over the lifetime of -instcombine, since
it's just reducing the number of iterations needed to reach fixed point.

95ff656ae0 AsmWriter: Write alloca array size explicitly (and -instcombine fixup)
Write the `alloca` array size explicitly when it's non-canonical.
Previously, if the array size was `iX 1` (where X is not 32), the type
would mutate to `i32` when round-tripping through assembly.

The testcase I added fails in `verify-uselistorder` (as well as
`FileCheck`), since the use-lists for `i32 1` and `i64 1` change.
(Manman Ren came across this when running `verify-uselistorder` on some
non-trivial, optimized code as part of PR5680.)

The type mutation started with r104911, which allowed array sizes to be
something other than an `i32`.  Starting with r204945, we
"canonicalized" to `i64` on 64-bit platforms -- and then on every
round-trip through assembly, mutated back to `i32`.

I bundled a fixup for `-instcombine` to avoid r204945 on scalar
allocations.  (There wasn't a clean way to sequence this into two
commits, since the assembly change on its own caused testcase churn, and
the `-instcombine` change can't be tested without the assembly changes.)

An obvious alternative fix -- change `AllocaInst::AllocaInst()`,
`AsmWriter` and `LLParser` to treat `intptr_t` as the canonical type for
scalar allocations -- was rejected out of hand, since this required
teaching them each about the data layout.

A follow-up commit will add an `-instcombine` to canonicalize the scalar
allocation array size to `i32 1` rather than leaving `iX 1` alone.

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.

fba7e30f0f [IC] Turn non-null MD on pointer loads to range MD on integer loads.
Summary:
This change fixes the FIXME that you recently added when you committed
(a modified version of) my patch.  When `InstCombine` combines a load and
store of an pointer to those of an equivalently-sized integer, it currently
drops any `!nonnull` metadata that might be present.  This change replaces
`!nonnull` metadata with `!range !{ 1, -1 }` metadata instead.

5ecf528fc2 [InstCombine] Remove unnecessary variable indexing into single-element arrays
This change addresses a deficiency pointed out in PR22629. To copy from the bug
report:

[from the bug report]

Consider this code:

int f(int x) {
  int a[] = {12};
  return a[x];
}

GCC knows to optimize this to

movl     $12, %eax
ret

The code generated by recent Clang at -O3 is:

movslq   %edi, %rax
movl     .L_ZZ1fiE1a(,%rax,4), %eax
retq

.L_ZZ1fiE1a:
  .long    12                      # 0xc

[end from the bug report]

This definitely seems worth fixing. I've also seen this kind of code before (as
the base case of generic vector wrapper templates with one element).

The general idea is to look at the GEP feeding a load or a store, which has
some variable as its first non-zero index, and determine if that index must be
zero (or else an out-of-bounds access would occur). We can do this for allocas
and globals with constant initializers where we know the maximum size of the
underlying object. When we find such a GEP, we create a new one for the memory
access with that first variable index replaced with a constant zero.

Even if we can't eliminate the memory access (and sometimes we can't), it is
still useful because it removes unnecessary indexing calculations.

a768c4a096 [IC] Fix a bug with the instcombine canonicalizing of loads and
propagating of metadata.

We were propagating !nonnull metadata even when the newly formed load is
no longer of a pointer type. This is clearly broken and results in LLVM
failing the verifier and aborting. This patch just restricts the
propagation of !nonnull metadata to when we actually have a pointer
type.

This bug report and the initial version of this patch was provided by
Charles Davis! Many thanks for finding this!

We still need to add logic to round-trip the metadata correctly if we
combine from pointer types to integer types and then back by using range
metadata for the integer type loads. But this is the minimal and safe
version of the patch, which is important so we can backport it into 3.6.

884f263eab [PM] Rename InstCombine.h to InstCombineInternal.h in preparation for
creating a non-internal header file for the InstCombine pass.

I thought about calling this InstCombiner.h or in some way more clearly
associating it with the InstCombiner clas that it is primarily defining,
but there are several other utility interfaces defined within this for
InstCombine. If, in the course of refactoring, those end up moving
elsewhere or going away, it might make more sense to make this the
combiner's header alone.

Naturally, this is a bikeshed to a certain degree, so feel free to lobby
for a different shade of paint if this name just doesn't suit you.

b778cbc0c8 [canonicalize] Teach InstCombine to canonicalize loads which are only
ever stored to always use a legal integer type if one is available.

Regardless of whether this particular type is good or bad, it ensures we
don't get weird differences in generated code (and resulting
performance) from "equivalent" patterns that happen to end up using
a slightly different type.

After some discussion on llvmdev it seems everyone generally likes this
canonicalization. However, there may be some parts of LLVM that handle
it poorly and need to be fixed. I have at least verified that this
doesn't impede GVN and instcombine's store-to-load forwarding powers in
any obvious cases. Subtle cases are exactly what we need te flush out if
they remain.

Also note that this IR pattern should already be hitting LLVM from Clang
at least because it is exactly the IR which would be produced if you
used memcpy to copy a pointer or floating point between memory instead
of a variable.

5a9cd4d44e [PM] Split the AssumptionTracker immutable pass into two separate APIs:
a cache of assumptions for a single function, and an immutable pass that
manages those caches.

The motivation for this change is two fold. Immutable analyses are
really hacks around the current pass manager design and don't exist in
the new design. This is usually OK, but it requires that the core logic
of an immutable pass be reasonably partitioned off from the pass logic.
This change does precisely that. As a consequence it also paves the way
for the *many* utility functions that deal in the assumptions to live in
both pass manager worlds by creating an separate non-pass object with
its own independent API that they all rely on. Now, the only bits of the
system that deal with the actual pass mechanics are those that actually
need to deal with the pass mechanics.

Once this separation is made, several simplifications become pretty
obvious in the assumption cache itself. Rather than using a set and
callback value handles, it can just be a vector of weak value handles.
The callers can easily skip the handles that are null, and eventually we
can wrap all of this up behind a filter iterator.

For now, this adds boiler plate to the various passes, but this kind of
boiler plate will end up making it possible to port these passes to the
new pass manager, and so it will end up factored away pretty reasonably.
