Commit r259357 was reverted because it caused PR26629. We were assuming all
roots of a vectorizable tree could be truncated to the same width, which is not
the case in general. This commit reapplies the patch along with a fix and a new
test case to ensure we don't regress because of this issue again. This should
fix PR26629.

This patch is the second attempt to reapply commit r258404. There was bug in
the initial patch and subsequent fix (mentioned below).
The initial patch caused an assertion because we were computing smaller type
sizes for instructions that cannot be demoted. The fix first determines the
instructions that will be demoted, and then applies the smaller type size to
only those instructions.
This should fix PR26239 and PR26307.

This change attempts to produce vectorized integer expressions in bit widths
that are narrower than their scalar counterparts. The need for demotion arises
especially on architectures in which the small integer types (e.g., i8 and i16)
are not legal for scalar operations but can still be used in vectors. Like
similar work done within the loop vectorizer, we rely on InstCombine to perform
the actual type-shrinking. We use the DemandedBits analysis and
ComputeNumSignBits from ValueTracking to determine the minimum required bit
width of an expression.

The fix uniques the bundle of getelementptr indices we are about to vectorize
since it's possible for the same index to be used by multiple instructions.
The original commit message is below.
[SLP] Vectorize the index computations of getelementptr instructions.
This patch seeds the SLP vectorizer with getelementptr indices. The primary
motivation in doing so is to vectorize gather-like idioms beginning with
consecutive loads (e.g., g[a[0] - b[0]] + g[a[1] - b[1]] + ...). While these
cases could be vectorized with a top-down phase, seeding the existing bottom-up
phase with the index computations avoids the complexity, compile-time, and
phase ordering issues associated with a full top-down pass. Only bundles of
single-index getelementptrs with non-constant differences are considered for
vectorization.

When considering incoming values as part of a reduction phi, ensure the
incoming value is dominated by said phi.
Failing to ensure this property causes miscompiles.

GlobalsAA's assumptions that passes do not escape globals not previously
escaped is not violated by AlignmentFromAssumptions and SLPVectorizer. Marking
them as such allows GlobalsAA to be preserved until GVN in the LTO pipeline.

Measurements primarily on AArch64 have shown this feature does not
significantly effect compile-time. The are no significant perf changes in LNT,
but for AArch64 at least, there are wins in third party benchmarks.
As discussed on llvm-dev, we're going to try turning this on by default and see
how other targets react to the change.

The SLPVectorizer had a very crude way of trying to benefit
from associativity: it tried to optimize for splat/broadcast
or in order to have the same operator on the same side.
This is benefitial to the cost model and allows more vectorization
to occur.
This patch improve the logic and make the detection optimal (locally,
we don't look at the full tree but only at the immediate children).

Summary:
This change could be way off-piste, I'm looking for any feedback on whether it's an acceptable approach.
It never seems to be a problem to gobble up as many reduction values as can be found, and then to attempt to reduce the resulting tree. Some of the workloads I'm looking at have been aggressively unrolled by hand, and by selecting reduction widths that are not constrained by a vector register size, it becomes possible to profitably vectorize. My test case shows such an unrolling which SLP was not vectorizing (on neither ARM nor X86) before this patch, but with it does vectorize.
I measure no significant compile time impact of this change when combined with D13949 and D14063. There are also no significant performance regressions on ARM/AArch64 in SPEC or LNT.
The more principled approach I thought of was to generate several candidate tree's and use the cost model to pick the cheapest one. That seemed like quite a big design change (the algorithms seem very much one-shot), and would likely be a costly thing for compile time. This seemed to do the job at very little cost, but I'm worried I've misunderstood something!

Summary:
Currently, when the SLP vectorizer considers whether a phi is part of a reduction, it dismisses phi's whose incoming blocks are not the same as the block containing the phi. For the patterns I'm looking at, extending this rule to allow phis whose incoming block is a containing loop latch allows me to vectorize certain workloads.
There is no significant compile-time impact, and combined with D13949, no performance improvement measured in ARM/AArch64 in any of SPEC2000, SPEC2006 or LNT.

Summary:
Certain workloads, in particular sum-of-absdiff loops, can be vectorized using SLP if it can treat select instructions as reduction values.
The test case is a bit awkward. The AArch64 cost model needs some tuning to not be so pessimistic about selects. I've had to tweak the SLP threshold here.

Besides the usual, I finally added an overload to
`BasicBlock::splitBasicBlock()` that accepts an `Instruction*` instead
of `BasicBlock::iterator`. Someone can go back and remove this overload
later (after updating the callers I'm going to skip going forward), but
the most common call seems to be
`BB->splitBasicBlock(BB->getTerminator(), ...)` and I'm not sure it's
better to add `->getIterator()` to every one than have the overload.
It's pretty hard to get the usage wrong.
llvm-svn: 250745
Summary:
Given an array of i2 elements, 4 consecutive scalar loads will be lowered to
i8-sized loads and thus will access 4 consecutive bytes in memory. If we
vectorize these loads into a single <4 x i2> load, it'll access only 1 byte in
memory. Hence, we should prohibit vectorization in such cases.

Usually large blocks are not a problem. But if a large block (> 10k instructions)
contains many (potential) chains of vector instructions, and those chains are
spread over a wide range of instructions, then scheduling becomes a compile time problem.
This change introduces a limit for the accumulate scheduling region size of a block.
For real-world functions this limit will never be exceeded (it's about 10x larger than
the maximum value seen in the test-suite and external test suite).

with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups.
This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for
LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass
manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is
as follows:
- FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation
interface to walk a single query across a range of results from
different alias analyses. Currently this is function-specific as we
always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function.
- AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of
various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several
cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can
be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than
the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be
hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause
a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the
behavior of the prior infrastructure.
- All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the
legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared
result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely
naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the
new pass manager.
- BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more
fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and
loop info that need to be constructed for each function.
All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been
updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and
other pass management code has been updated accordingly.
The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the
available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object.
This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various
passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA
passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded
into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to
be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As
a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on
BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation.
This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally,
most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass
because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes.
The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve
all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up
needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the
aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass.
Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving
that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided
alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA,
GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is
preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is
marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved
set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and
I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve
SCEV itself.
One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were
actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of
a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis
management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many
cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more
obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new
PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias
analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them.
This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and
is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state.
Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old
alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most
significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass
relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the
analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing
functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included
that in this patch merely to keep it smaller.
Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA
documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the
new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in
the new pass manager first.

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.
