If the inrange keyword is present before any index, loading from or storing to any pointer derived from the getelementptr has undefined behavior if the load or store would access memory outside of the bounds of the element selected by the index marked as inrange. This can be used, e.g. for alias analysis or to split globals at element boundaries where beneficial. As previously proposed on llvm-dev: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2016-July/102472.html Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D22793 git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@286514 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
Analysis Opportunities: //===---------------------------------------------------------------------===// In test/Transforms/LoopStrengthReduce/quadradic-exit-value.ll, the ScalarEvolution expression for %r is this: {1,+,3,+,2}<loop> Outside the loop, this could be evaluated simply as (%n * %n), however ScalarEvolution currently evaluates it as (-2 + (2 * (trunc i65 (((zext i64 (-2 + %n) to i65) * (zext i64 (-1 + %n) to i65)) /u 2) to i64)) + (3 * %n)) In addition to being much more complicated, it involves i65 arithmetic, which is very inefficient when expanded into code. //===---------------------------------------------------------------------===// In formatValue in test/CodeGen/X86/lsr-delayed-fold.ll, ScalarEvolution is forming this expression: ((trunc i64 (-1 * %arg5) to i32) + (trunc i64 %arg5 to i32) + (-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32))) This could be folded to (-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32)) //===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
