(Re-apply r234361 with a fix and a testcase for PR23157)
Both run-time pointer checking and the dependence analysis are capable
of dealing with uniform addresses. I.e. it's really just an orthogonal
property of the loop that the analysis computes.
Run-time pointer checking will only try to reason about SCEVAddRec
pointers or else gives up. If the uniform pointer turns out the be a
SCEVAddRec in an outer loop, the run-time checks generated will be
correct (start and end bounds would be equal).
In case of the dependence analysis, we work again with SCEVs. When
compared against a loop-dependent address of the same underlying object,
the difference of the two SCEVs won't be constant. This will result in
returning an Unknown dependence for the pair.
When compared against another uniform access, the difference would be
constant and we should return the right type of dependence
(forward/backward/etc).
The changes also adds support to query this property of the loop and
modify the vectorizer to use this.

The plan here is to push the API changes out from the common components
(like Constant::getGetElementPtr and IRBuilder::CreateGEP related
functions) and just update callers to either pass the type if it's
obvious, or pass null.
Do this with LoadInst as well and anything else that comes up, then to
start porting specific uses to not pass null anymore - this may require
some refactoring in each case.

Now the analysis won't "fail" if the memchecks exceed the threshold. It
is the transform pass' responsibility to perform the check.
This allows the transform pass to further analyze/eliminate the
memchecks. E.g. in Loop distribution we only need to check pointers
that end up in different partitions.
Note that there is a slight change of functionality here. The logic in
analyzeLoop is that if dependence checking fails due to non-constant
distance between the pointers, another attempt is made to prove safety
of the dependences purely using run-time checks.
Before this patch we could fail the loop due to exceeding the memcheck
threshold after the first step, now we only check the threshold in the
client after the full analysis. There is no measurable compile-time
effect but I wanted to record this here.

Summary:
Now that the DataLayout is a mandatory part of the module, let's start
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.

Runtime unrolling is an expensive optimization which can bring benefit
only if the loop is hot and iteration number is relatively large enough.
For some loops, we know they are not worth to be runtime unrolled.
The scalar loop from vectorization is one of the cases.
llvm-svn: 231631
Summary:
DataLayout keeps the string used for its creation.
As a side effect it is no longer needed in the Module.
This is "almost" NFC, the string is no longer
canonicalized, you can't rely on two "equals" DataLayout
having the same string returned by getStringRepresentation().
Get rid of DataLayoutPass: the DataLayout is in the Module
The DataLayout is "per-module", let's enforce this by not
duplicating it more than necessary.
One more step toward non-optionality of the DataLayout in the
module.
Make DataLayout Non-Optional in the Module
Module->getDataLayout() will never returns nullptr anymore.

The only difference between these two is that VectorizerReport adds a
vectorizer-specific prefix to its messages. When LAA is used in the
vectorizer context the prefix is added when we promote the
LoopAccessReport into a VectorizerReport via one of the constructors.
This is part of the patchset that converts LoopAccessAnalysis into an
actual analysis pass.

When I split out LoopAccessReport from this, I need to create some temps

This is a function pass that runs the analysis on demand. The analysis
can be initiated by querying the loop access info via LAA::getInfo. It
either returns the cached info or runs the analysis.
Symbolic stride information continues to reside outside of this analysis
pass. We may move it inside later but it's not a priority for me right
now. The idea is that Loop Distribution won't support run-time stride
checking at least initially.
This means that when querying the analysis, symbolic stride information
can be provided optionally. Whether stride information is used can
invalidate the cache entry and rerun the analysis. Note that if the
loop does not have any symbolic stride, the entry should be preserved
across Loop Distribution and LV.
Since currently the only user of the pass is LV, I just check that the
symbolic stride information didn't change when using a cached result.
On the LV side, LoopVectorizationLegality requests the info object
corresponding to the loop from the analysis pass. A large chunk of the
diff is due to LAI becoming a pointer from a reference.
A test will be added as part of the -analyze patch.
Also tested that with AVX, we generate identical assembly output for the
testsuite (including the external testsuite) before and after.

actual analysis pass.

LAA will be an on-demand analysis pass, so we need to cache the result

that.

As LAA is becoming a pass, we can no longer pass the params to its

blockNeedsPredication is in LoopAccess in order to share it with the
vectorizer. It's a utility needed by LoopAccess not strictly provided
by it but it's a good place to share it. This makes the function static
so that it no longer required to create an LoopAccessInfo instance in
order to access it from LV.
This was actually causing problems because it would have required
creating LAI much earlier that LV::canVectorizeMemory().

This will allow it to be shared with the new Loop Distribution pass.
getFirstInst is currently duplicated across LoopVectorize.cpp and
LoopAccessAnalysis.cpp. This is a short-term work-around until we figure out
a better solution.
NFC. (The code moved is adjusted a bit for the name of the Loop member and
that PtrRtCheck is now a reference rather than a pointer.)

I've noticed this while trying to move addRuntimeCheck to LoopAccessAnalysis.
I think that the intention was to early exit from the overflow checking before
the code for the memchecks. This is the entire reason why we compute
FirstCheckInst but then we don't use that as the splitting instruction but the
final check. Looks like an oversight.
llvm-svn: 228056
Other than moving code and adding the boilerplate for the new files, the code
being moved is unchanged.
There are a few global functions that are shared with the rest of the
LoopVectorizer. I moved these to the new module as well (emitLoopAnalysis,
stripIntegerCast, replaceSymbolicStrideSCEV) along with the Report class used
by emitLoopAnalysis. There is probably room for further improvement in this
area.
I kept DEBUG_TYPE "loop-vectorize" because it's used as the PassName with
emitOptimizationRemarkAnalysis. This will obviously have to change.

Rather than using globals use a structure to pass parameters from the

It's not great how all this is passed through in LoopAccessAnalysis but this
is all expected to change once the class start servicing the Loop Distribution
pass as well where some of these parameters make no sense.
