1167cf8023 [CostModel] Avoid traditional ConstantExpr crashy pitfails
I'm not sure if this is a regression from D81448 + D81643,
which moved at least the code cast from elsewhere,
or somehow no one triggered that before.
But now we can reach it with a non-instruction..

It is not straight-forward to write cost-model tests for constantexprs,
`-cost-model -analyze -cost-kind=` does not appear to look at them,
or maybe i'm doing it wrong.

I've encountered that via a SimplifyCFG crash,
so reduced (currently-crashing) test is added.
There are likely other instances.

For now, simply restore previous status quo of
not crashing and returning TTI::TCC_Basic.

8bce4cf299 [SimplifyCFG] Drop debug loc in SpeculativelyExecuteBB
Summary:
According to HowToUpdateDebugInfo.rst:

```
Preserving the debug locations of speculated instructions can make
it seem like a condition is true when it's not (or vice versa), which
leads to a confusing single-stepping experience
```

This patch follows the recommendation to drop debug locations on
speculated instructions.

d58eac3927 [IR] Convert profile metadata in createCallMatchingInvoke()
When an invoke instruction is converted to a call its
profile metadata is dropped because it has incompatible
format (see commit 16ad6eeb94ff).
This patch adds an attempt to convert profile data to
format of the call instruction. This used to work well
before the commit dcfa78a4ccec.

23bde48f84 [InstCombine] Sink pure instructions down to return and unreachable blocks
If the only user of `Instr` is in a return or unreachable block, we can
sink `Instr` to the`User` safely (unless it reads/writes memory).
Return or unreachable blocks are guaranteed to execute zero
or one time, and `Instr` always dominates `User`, so they either will
be executed together (execution of `User` always implies execution
of `Instr`) or not executed at all.

202bb919c0 Make Value::getPointerAlignment() return an Align, not a MaybeAlign.
If we don't know anything about the alignment of a pointer, Align(1) is
still correct: all pointers are at least 1-byte aligned.

Included in this patch is a bugfix for an issue discovered during this
cleanup: pointers with "dereferenceable" attributes/metadata were
assumed to be aligned according to the type of the pointer.  This
wasn't intentional, as far as I can tell, so Loads.cpp was fixed to
stop making this assumption. Frontends may need to be updated.  I
updated clang's handling of C++ references, and added a release note for
this.

f5d3346387 Infer alignment of unmarked loads in IR/bitcode parsing.
For IR generated by a compiler, this is really simple: you just take the
datalayout from the beginning of the file, and apply it to all the IR
later in the file. For optimization testcases that don't care about the
datalayout, this is also really simple: we just use the default
datalayout.

The complexity here comes from the fact that some LLVM tools allow
overriding the datalayout: some tools have an explicit flag for this,
some tools will infer a datalayout based on the code generation target.
Supporting this properly required plumbing through a bunch of new
machinery: we want to allow overriding the datalayout after the
datalayout is parsed from the file, but before we use any information
from it. Therefore, IR/bitcode parsing now has a callback to allow tools
to compute the datalayout at the appropriate time.

Not sure if I covered all the LLVM tools that want to use the callback.
(clang? lli? Misc IR manipulation tools like llvm-link?). But this is at
least enough for all the LLVM regression tests, and IR without a
datalayout is not something frontends should generate.

This change had some sort of weird effects for certain CodeGen
regression tests: if the datalayout is overridden with a datalayout with
a different program or stack address space, we now parse IR based on the
overridden datalayout, instead of the one written in the file (or the
default one, if none is specified). This broke a few AVR tests, and one
AMDGPU test.

Outside the CodeGen tests I mentioned, the test changes are all just
fixing CHECK lines and moving around datalayout lines in weird places.

570033ed62 Add nomerge function attribute to supress tail merge optimization in simplifyCFG
We want to add a way to avoid merging identical calls so as to keep the
separate debug-information for those calls. There is also an asan
usecase where having this attribute would be beneficial to avoid
alternative work-arounds.

Here is the link to the feature request:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42783.

`nomerge` is different from `noline`. `noinline` prevents function from
inlining at callsites, but `nomerge` prevents multiple identical calls
from being merged into one.

This patch adds `nomerge` to disable the optimization in IR level. A
followup patch will be needed to let backend understands `nomerge` and
avoid tail merge at backend.

730509657a [InstCombine] DCE instructions earlier
When InstCombine initially populates the worklist, it already
performs constant folding and DCE. However, as the instructions
are initially visited in program order, this DCE can pick up only
the last instruction of a dead chain, the rest would only get
picked up in the main InstCombine run.

To avoid this, we instead perform the DCE in separate pass over the
collected instructions in reverse order, which will allow us to
pick up full dead instruction chains. We already need to do this
reverse iteration anyway to populate the worklist, so this
shouldn't add extra cost.

This by itself only fixes a small part of the problem though:
The same basic issue also applies during the main InstCombine loop.
We generally always want DCE to occur as early as possible,
because it will allow one-use folds to happen. Address this by also
performing DCE while adding deferred instructions to the main worklist.

This drops the number of tests that perform more than 2 InstCombine
iterations from ~80 to ~40. There's some spurious test changes due
to operand order / icmp toggling.

4d4e52ff5c [BasicBlockUtils] Fix dbg.value elimination problem in MergeBlockIntoPredecessor
Summary:
In commit d60f34c20a2f31335c8d5626e (llvm-svn 317128,
PR35113) MergeBlockIntoPredecessor was changed into
discarding some dbg.value intrinsics referring to
PHI values, post-splice due to loop rotation.

That elimination of dbg.value intrinsics did not
consider which dbg.value to keep depending on the
context (e.g. if the variable is changing its value
several times inside the basic block).

In the past that hasn't been such a big problem since
CodeGenPrepare::placeDbgValues has moved the dbg.value
to be next to the PHI node anyway. But after commit
00e238896cd8ad3a7d7 CodeGenPrepare isn't doing that
any longer, so we need to be more careful when avoiding
duplicate dbg.value intrinsics in MergeBlockIntoPredecessor.

This patch replaces the code that tried to avoid duplicate
dbg.values by using the RemoveRedundantDbgInstrs helper.

01f52927e7 Broaden the definition of a "widenable branch"
As a reminder, a "widenable branch" is the pattern "br i1 (and i1 X, WC()), label %taken, label %untaken" where "WC" is the widenable condition intrinsics. The semantics of such a branch (derived from the semantics of WC) is that a new condition can be added into the condition arbitrarily without violating legality.

Broaden the definition in two ways:
    Allow swapped operands to the br (and X, WC()) form
    Allow widenable branch w/trivial condition (i.e. true) which takes form of br i1 WC()

The former is just general robustness (e.g. for X = non-instruction this is what instcombine produces). The later is specifically important as partial unswitching of a widenable range check produces exactly this form above the loop.

e77f587e1a [WC] Fix a subtle bug in our definition of widenable branch
We had a subtle, but nasty bug in our definition of a widenable branch, and thus in the transforms which used that utility. Specifically, we returned true for any branch which included a widenable condition within it's condition, regardless of whether that widenable condition also had other uses.

The problem is that the result of the WC() call is defined to be one particular value. As such, all users must agree as to what that value is. If we widen a branch without also updating *all other users* of the WC in the same way, we have broken the required semantics.

Most of the textual diff is updating existing transforms not to leave dead uses hanging around. They're largely NFC as the dead instructions would be immediately deleted by other passes. The reason to make these changes is so that the transforms preserve the widenable branch form.

In practice, we don't get bitten by this only because it isn't profitable to CSE WC() calls and the lowering pass from guards uses distinct WC calls per branch.

e6018c48b2 [SimplifyCFG] Use a (trivially) dominanting widenable branch to remove later slow path blocks
This transformation is a variation on the GuardWidening transformation we have checked in as it's own pass. Instead of focusing on merge (i.e. hoisting and simplifying) two widenable branches, this transform makes the observation that simply removing a second slowpath block (by reusing an existing one) is often a very useful canonicalization. This may lead to later merging, or may not. This is a useful generalization when the intermediate block has loads whose dereferenceability is hard to establish.

As noted in the patch, this can be generalized further, and will be.

Also, the old code would run for every single insturuction in BB,

This function still has a problem that `PHINodeFoldingThreshold` is

03e9b9d4a0 [SimplifyCFG] FoldTwoEntryPHINode(): consider *total* speculation cost, not per-BB cost
Summary:
Previously, if the threshold was 2, we were willing to speculatively
execute 2 cheap instructions in both basic blocks (thus we were willing
to speculatively execute cost = 4), but weren't willing to speculate
when one BB had 3 instructions and other one had no instructions,
even thought that would have total cost of 3.

This looks inconsistent to me.
I don't think `cmov`-like instructions will start executing
until both of it's inputs are available: https://godbolt.org/z/zgHePf
So i don't see why the existing behavior is the correct one.

Also, let's add it's own `cl::opt` for this threshold,
with default=4, so it is not stricter than the previous threshold:
will allow to fold when there are 2 BB's each with cost=2.
And since the logic has changed, it will also allow to fold when
one BB has cost=3 and other cost=1, or there is only one BB with cost=4.

This is an alternative solution to D65148:
This fix is mainly motivated by `signbit-like-value-extension.ll` test.
That pattern comes up in JPEG decoding, see e.g.
`Figure F.12 – Extending the sign bit of a decoded value in V`
of `ITU T.81` (JPEG specification).
That branch is not predictable, and it is within the innermost loop,
so the fact that that pattern ends up being stuck with a branch
instead of `select` (i.e. `CMOV` for x86) is unlikely to be beneficial.

This has great results on the final assembly (vanilla test-suite + RawSpeed): (metric pass - D67240)

We significantly decrease basic block count, notably decrease instruction count,
significantly decrease branch count and very significantly increase `cmov` count.

Performance-wise, unsurprisingly, this has great effect on
target RawSpeed benchmark. I'm seeing 5 **major** improvements:

That being said, it's always best-effort, so there will likely
be cases where this worsens things.
