Remove the code that tried to look for reduction patterns, since the
vectorizer and isel can now produce predicated arithmetic instructios
within the loop body. This has required some reorganisation and fixes
around live-out and predication checks, as well as looking for cases
where an input/output is initialised to zero.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D86613
While validating live-out values, record instructions that look like
a reduction. This will comprise of a vector op (for now only vadd),
a vorr (vmov) which store the previous value of vadd and then a vpsel
in the exit block which is predicated upon a vctp. This vctp will
combine the last two iterations using the vmov and vadd into a vector
which can then be consumed by a vaddv.
Once we have determined that it's safe to perform tail-predication,
we need to change this sequence of instructions so that the
predication doesn't produce incorrect code. This involves changing
the register allocation of the vadd so it updates itself and the
predication on the final iteration will not update the falsely
predicated lanes. This mimics what the vmov, vctp and vpsel do and
so we then don't need any of those instructions.

fuchsia-x86_64-linux builder fails with:
/b/fuchsia-x86_64-linux/llvm.src/llvm/include/llvm/ADT/TinyPtrVector.h:85:15:
error: no matching conversion for C-style cast from 'nullptr_t' to 'llvm::ReachingDef'
RHS.Val = (EltTy)nullptr;
Let's see whether adding an explicit nullptr_t constructor helps.
RDA currently uses SmallVector<int, 1> to store reaching definitions.
A SmallVector<int, 1> is 24 bytes large, and X86 currently has
164 register units, which means we need 3936 bytes per block.
If you have a large function with 1000 blocks, that's already 4MB.
A large fraction of these reg units will not have any reaching defs
(say, those corresponding to zmm registers), and many will have just
one. A TinyPtrVector serves this use-case much better, as it only
needs 8 bytes per register if it has 0 or 1 reaching defs.
As the name implies, TinyPtrVector is designed to work with pointers,
so we need to add some boilerplate to treat our reaching def integers
as pointers, using an appropriate encoding. We need to keep the low
bit free for tagging, and make sure at least one bit is set to
distinguish the null pointer.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D77513
RDA sometimes needs to visit blocks twice, to take into account
reaching defs coming in along loop back edges. Currently it handles
repeated visitation the same way as usual, which means that it will
scan through all instructions and their reg unit defs again. Not
only is this very inefficient, it also means that all reaching defs
in loops are going to be inserted twice.
We can do much better than this. The only thing we need to handle
is a new reaching def from a predecessor, which either needs to be
prepended to the reaching definitions (if there was no reaching def
from a predecessor), or needs to replace an existing predecessor
reaching def, if it is more recent. Since D77508 we only store the
most recent predecessor reaching def, so that's the only one that
may need updating.
This also has the nice side-effect that reaching definitions are
now automatically sorted and unique, so drop the llvm::sort() call
in favor of an assertion.

Use MIOperand in collectLocalKilledOperands to make the search
global, as we already have to search for global uses too. This
allows us to delete more dead code when tail predicating.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D75167
Add getUniqueReachingMIDef to RDA which performs a global search for
a machine instruction that produces a unique definition of a given
register at a given point. Also add two helper functions
(getMIOperand) that wrap around this functionality to get the
incoming definition uses of a given instruction. These now replace
the uses of getReachingMIDef in ARMLowOverheadLoops. getReachingMIDef
has been renamed to getReachingLocalMIDef and has been made private
along with getInstFromId.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D74605
Change the way that we remove the redundant iteration count code in
the presence of IT blocks. collectLocalKilledOperands has been
introduced to scan an instructions operands, collecting the killed
instructions and then visiting them too. This is used to delete the
code in the preheader which calculates the iteration count. We also
track any IT blocks within the preheader and, if we remove all the
instructions from the IT block, we also remove the IT instruction.
isSafeToRemove is used to remove any redundant uses of the iteration
count within the loop body.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D74975
To find the instruction in the block for a given ID, first a count and then a
lookup was performed in the map, which is almost the same thing, thus doing
double the work.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D73866
Add several new helpers to RDA:
- hasLocalDefBefore
- isRegDefinedAfter
- isSafeToDefRegAt
And move two bits of logic from ARMLowOverheadLoops into RDA:
- isSafeToMove
- isSafeToRemove
Both of these have some wrappers too to make them more convienent to
use.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D73460
Introduce a method to walk through use-def chains to decide whether
it's possible to remove a given instruction and its users. These
instructions are then stored in a set until the end of the transform
when they're erased. This is now used to perform checks on the
iteration count (LoopDec chain), element count (VCTP chain) and the
possibly redundant iteration count.
As well as being able to remove chains of instructions, we know also
check that the sub feeding the vctp is producing the expected value.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D71837
1) Fix an issue with the incorrect value being used for the number of
elements being passed to [d|w]lstp. We were trying to check that
the value was available at LoopStart, but this doesn't consider
that the last instruction in the block could also define the
register. Two helpers have been added to RDA for this.
2) Insert some code to now try to move the element count def or the
insertion point so that we can perform more tail predication.
3) Related to (1), the same off-by-one could prevent us from
generating a low-overhead loop when a mov lr could have been
the last instruction in the block.
4) Fix up some instruction attributes so that not all the
low-overhead loop instructions are labelled as branches and
terminators - as this is not true for dls/dlstp.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D71609
After creating a low-overhead loop, the loop update instruction was still
lingering around hurting performance. This removes dead loop update
instructions, which in our case are mostly SUBS instructions.
To support this, some helper functions were added to MachineLoopUtils and
ReachingDefAnalysis to analyse live-ins of loop exit blocks and find uses
before a particular loop instruction, respectively.
This is a first version that removes a SUBS instruction when there are no other
uses inside and outside the loop block, but there are some more interesting
cases in test/CodeGen/Thumb2/LowOverheadLoops/mve-tail-data-types.ll which
shows that there is room for improvement. For example, we can't handle this
case yet:
..
dlstp.32 lr, r2
.LBB0_1:
mov r3, r2
subs r2, #4
vldrh.u32 q2, [r1], #8
vmov q1, q0
vmla.u32 q0, q2, r0
letp lr, .LBB0_1
@ %bb.2:
vctp.32 r3
..
which is a lot more tricky because r2 is not only used by the subs, but also by
the mov to r3, which is used outside the low-overhead loop by the vctp
instruction, and that requires a bit of a different approach, and I will follow
up on this.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D71007
Add some more helper functions to ReachingDefs to query the uses of
a given MachineInstr and also to query whether two MachineInstrs use
the same def of a register.
For Arm, while tail-predicating, these helpers are used in the
low-overhead loops to remove the dead code that calculates the number
of loop iterations.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D70240
Add several new methods to ReachingDefAnalysis:
- getReachingMIDef, instead of returning an integer, return the
MachineInstr that produces the def.
- getInstFromId, return a MachineInstr for which the given integer
corresponds to.
- hasSameReachingDef, return whether two MachineInstr use the same
def of a register.
- isRegUsedAfter, return whether a register is used after a given
MachineInstr.
These methods have been used in ARMLowOverhead to replace searching
for uses/defs.

This file lists every pass in LLVM, and is included by Pass.h, which is
very popular. Every time we add, remove, or rename a pass in LLVM, it
caused lots of recompilation.
I found this fact by looking at this table, which is sorted by the
number of times a file was changed over the last 100,000 git commits
multiplied by the number of object files that depend on it in the
current checkout:

an incremental rebuild.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.
