my earlier patch to this file.
The issue there was that all uses of an IV inside a loop
are actually references to Base[IV*2], and there was one
use outside that was the same but LSR didn't see the base
or the scaling because it didn't recurse into uses outside
the loop; thus, it used base+IV*scale mode inside the loop
instead of pulling base out of the loop. This was extra bad
because register pressure later forced both base and IV into
memory. Doing that recursion, at least enough
to figure out addressing modes, is a good idea in general;
the change in AddUsersIfInteresting does this. However,
there were side effects....
It is also possible for recursing outside the loop to
introduce another IV where there was only 1 before (if
the refs inside are not scaled and the ref outside is).
I don't think this is a common case, but it's in the testsuite.
It is right to be very aggressive about getting rid of
such introduced IVs (CheckForIVReuse and the handling of
nonzero RewriteFactor in StrengthReduceStridedIVUsers).
In the testcase in question the new IV produced this way
has both a nonconstant stride and a nonzero base, neither
of which was handled before. And when inserting
new code that feeds into a PHI, it's right to put such
code at the original location rather than in the PHI's
immediate predecessor(s) when the original location is outside
the loop (a case that couldn't happen before)
(RewriteInstructionToUseNewBase); better to avoid making
multiple copies of it in this case.
Also, the mechanism for keeping SCEV's corresponding to GEP's
no longer works, as the GEP might change after its SCEV
is remembered, invalidating the SCEV, and we might get a bad
SCEV value when looking up the GEP again for a later loop.
This also couldn't happen before, as we weren't recursing
into GEP's outside the loop.
Also, when we build an expression that involves a (possibly
non-affine) IV from a different loop as well as an IV from
the one we're interested in (containsAddRecFromDifferentLoop),
don't recurse into that. We can't do much with it and will
get in trouble if we try to create new non-affine IVs or something.
More testcases are coming.

vector and extraneous loop over it, 2) not delete globals used by
phis/selects etc which could actually be useful. This fixes PR3321.
Many thanks to Duncan for narrowing this down.

functions that don't already have a (dynamic) alloca.
Dynamic allocas cause inefficient codegen and we shouldn't
propagate this (behavior follows gcc). Two existing tests
assumed such inlining would be done; they are hacked by
adding an alloca in the caller, preserving the point of
the tests.

will get its preferred alignment. It has to be careful and cautiously assume
it will just get the ABI alignment. This prevents instcombine from rounding
up the alignment of a load/store without adjusting the alignment of the alloca.

loads from allocas that cover the entire aggregate. This handles
some memcpy/byval cases that are produced by llvm-gcc. This triggers
a few times in kc++ (with std::pair<std::_Rb_tree_const_iterator
<kc::impl_abstract_phylum*>,bool>) and once in 176.gcc (with %struct..0anon).
llvm-svn: 61915
was it not very helpful, it was also wrong! The problem
is shown in the testcase: the alloca might be passed to
a nocapture callee which dereferences it and returns the
original pointer. But because it was a nocapture call we
think we don't need to track its uses, but we do.
llvm-svn: 61876
integer to a (transitive) bitcast the alloca and if that integer
has the full size of the alloca, then it clobbers the whole thing.
Handle this by extracting pieces out of the stored integer and
filing them away in the SROA'd elements.
This triggers fairly frequently because the CFE uses integers to
pass small structs by value and the inliner exposes these. For
example, in kimwitu++, I see a bunch of these with i64 stores to
"%struct.std::pair<std::_Rb_tree_const_iterator<kc::impl_abstract_phylum*>,bool>"
In 176.gcc I see a few i32 stores to "%struct..0anon".
In the testcase, this is a difference between compiling test1 to:
_test1:
subl $12, %esp
movl 20(%esp), %eax
movl %eax, 4(%esp)
movl 16(%esp), %eax
movl %eax, (%esp)
movl (%esp), %eax
addl 4(%esp), %eax
addl $12, %esp
ret
vs:
_test1:
movl 8(%esp), %eax
addl 4(%esp), %eax
ret
The second half of this will be to handle loads of the same form.

In fact this also deletes those with linkonce linkage,
however this is currently dead because for the moment
aliases aren't allowed to have this linkage type.

the argument to be stored to an alloca by tracking uses
of the alloca. This occurs 4 times (out of 7121, 0.05%)
in MultiSource/Applications, so may not be worth it. On
the other hand, it is easy to do and fairly cheap. The
functions it helps are: W_addcom and W_addlit in spiff;
process_args (argv) in d (make_dparser); ercPixConcealIMB
in JM/ldecod.

and clean recursive descent parser.
This change has a couple of ramifications:
1. The parser code is about 400 lines shorter (in what we maintain, not
including what is autogenerated).
2. The code should be significantly faster than the old code because we
don't have to work around bison's poor handling of datatypes with
ctors/dtors. This also makes the code much more resistant to memory
leaks.
3. We now get caret diagnostics from the .ll parser, woo.
4. The actual diagnostics emited from the parser are completely different
so a bunch of testcases had to be updated.
5. I now disallow "%ty = type opaque %ty = type i32". There was no good
reason to support this, it was just an accident of the old
implementation. I have no reason to think that anyone is actually using
this.
6. The syntax for sticking a global variable has changed to make it
unambiguous. I don't think anyone is depending on this since only clang
supports this and it is not solid yet, so I'm not worried about anything
breaking.
7. This gets rid of the last use of bison, and along with it the .cvs files.
I'll prune this from the makefiles as a subsequent commit.
There are a few minor cleanups that can be done after this commit (suggestions
welcome!) but this passes dejagnu testing and is ready for its time in the
limelight.

functions that don't write can't leak a pointer except through
the return value, so a void readonly function is implicitly nocapture.
Test these, and add a test that verifies that f1 calling f2 with an
otherwise dead pointer gets both of them marked nocapture.

purposes. While this doesn't increase the total number
of functions marked readonly or readnone in MultiSource/
Applications (3089), it does result in 12 functions being
marked readnone rather than readonly.

load from a pointer global wants to be SRAd but the load is used
by (recursive) phi nodes. This fixes a pessimization on ppc
introduced by Load PRE.

cleans up the generated code a bit. This should have the added benefit of
not randomly renaming functions/globals like my previous patch did. :)

memdep keeps track of how PHIs affect the pointer in dep queries, which
allows it to eliminate the load in cases like rle-phi-translate.ll, which
basically end up being:
BB1:
X = load P
br BB3
BB2:
Y = load Q
br BB3
BB3:
R = phi [P] [Q]
load R
turning "load R" into a phi of X/Y. In addition to additional exposed
opportunities, this makes memdep safe in many cases that it wasn't before
(which is required for load PRE) and also makes it substantially more
efficient. For example, consider:
bb1: // has many predecessors.
P = some_operator()
load P
In this example, previously memdep would scan all the predecessors of BB1
to see if they had something that would mustalias P. In some cases (e.g.
test/Transforms/GVN/rle-must-alias.ll) it would actually find them and end
up eliminating something. In many other cases though, it would scan and not
find anything useful. MemDep now stops at a block if the pointer is defined
in that block and cannot be phi translated to predecessors. This causes it
to miss the (rare) cases like rle-must-alias.ll, but makes it faster by not
scanning tons of stuff that is unlikely to be useful. For example, this
speeds up GVN as a whole from 3.928s to 2.448s (60%)!. IMO, scalar GVN
should be enhanced to simplify the rle-must-alias pointer base anyway, which
would allow the loads to be eliminated.
In the future, this should be enhanced to phi translate through geps and
bitcasts as well (as indicated by FIXMEs) making memdep even more powerful.
