Enable runtime unrolling for loops with unroll count metadata ("#pragma unroll N")
and a runtime trip count. Also, do not unroll loops with unroll full metadata if the
loop has a runtime loop count. Previously, such loops would be unrolled with a
very large threshold (pragma-unroll-threshold) if runtime unrolled happened to be
enabled resulting in a very large (and likely unwise) unroll factor.

Summary:
canUnrollCompletely takes `unsigned` values for `UnrolledCost` and
`RolledDynamicCost` but is passed in `uint64_t`s that are silently
truncated. Because of this, when `UnrolledSize` is a large integer
that has a small remainder with UINT32_MAX, LLVM tries to completely
unroll loops with high trip counts.

The new naming is (to me) much easier to understand. Here is a summary
of the new state of the world:
- '*Threshold' is the threshold for full unrolling. It is measured
against the estimated unrolled cost as computed by getUserCost in TTI
(or CodeMetrics, etc). We will exceed this threshold when unrolling
loops where unrolling exposes a significant degree of simplification
of the logic within the loop.
- '*PercentDynamicCostSavedThreshold' is the percentage of the loop's
estimated dynamic execution cost which needs to be saved by unrolling
to apply a discount to the estimated unrolled cost.
- '*DynamicCostSavingsDiscount' is the discount applied to the estimated
unrolling cost when the dynamic savings are expected to be high.
When actually analyzing the loop, we now produce both an estimated
unrolled cost, and an estimated rolled cost. The rolled cost is notably
a dynamic estimate based on our analysis of the expected execution of
each iteration.
While we're still working to build up the infrastructure for making
these estimates, to me it is much more clear *how* to make them better
when they have reasonably descriptive names. For example, we may want to
apply estimated (from heuristics or profiles) dynamic execution weights
to the *dynamic* cost estimates. If we start doing that, we would also
need to track the static unrolled cost and the dynamic unrolled cost, as
only the latter could reasonably be weighted by profile information.
This patch is sadly not without functionality change for the new unroll
analysis logic. Buried in the heuristic management were several things
that surprised me. For example, we never subtracted the optimized
instruction count off when comparing against the unroll heursistics!
I don't know if this just got lost somewhere along the way or what, but
with the new accounting of things, this is much easier to keep track of
and we use the post-simplification cost estimate to compare to the
thresholds, and use the dynamic cost reduction ratio to select whether
we can exceed the baseline threshold.
The old values of these flags also don't necessarily make sense. My
impression is that none of these thresholds or discounts have been tuned
yet, and so they're just arbitrary placehold numbers. As such, I've not
bothered to adjust for the fact that this is now a discount and not
a tow-tier threshold model. We need to tune all these values once the
logic is ready to be enabled.

This makes the visitor very narrow in scope -- all it does is visit
instructions, update a map of simplified values, and return whether it
is able to optimize away a particular instruction.
The two cost metrics are now returned as an optional struct. When the
optional is left unengaged, there is no information about the unrolled
cost of the loop, when it is engaged the cost metrics are available to

simplified model for use simulating each iteration into a separate
helper function that just returns the cache.
Building this cache had nothing to do with the rest of the unroll
analysis and so this removes an unnecessary coupling, etc. It should
also make it easier to think about the concept of providing fast cached
access to basic SCEV models as an orthogonal concept to the overall
unroll simulation.
I'd really like to see this kind of caching logic folded into SCEV
itself, it seems weird for us to provide it at this layer rather than
making repeated queries into SCEV fast all on their own.

checking and make the cache faster and smaller.
I had thought that using an APInt here would be useful, but I think
I was just wrong. Notably, we don't have to do any fancy overflow
checking, we can just bound the values as quite small and do the math in
a higher precision integer. I've switched to a signed integer so that
UBSan will even point out if we ever have integer overflow. I've added
various asserts to try to catch things as well and hoisted the overflow
checks so that we just leave the too-large offsets out of the SCEV-GEP
cache. This makes the value in the cache quite a bit smaller which is
probably worthwhile.
No functionality changed here (for trip counts under 1 billion).

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.

The issues with the new unroll analyzer are more fundamental than code
cleanup, algorithm, or data structure changes. I've sent an email to the

contained in it each time we try to add it to the worklist, just check
this when pulling it off the worklist. That way we do it at most once

anyways.

vector.
In addition to dramatically reducing the work required for contrived
example loops, this also has to correct some serious latent bugs in the
cost computation. Previously, we might add an instruction onto the
worklist once for every load which it used and was simplified. Then we
would visit it many times and accumulate "savings" each time.
I mean, fortunately this couldn't matter for things like calls with 100s
of operands, but even for binary operators this code seems like it must
be double counting the savings.
I just noticed this by inspection and due to the runtime problems it can
introduce, I don't have any test cases for cases where the cost produced
by this routine is unacceptable.
llvm-svn: 229059
In the unroll analyzer, it is checking each user to see if that user
will become dead. However, it first checked if that user was missing
from the simplified values map, and then if was also missing from the
dead instructions set. We add everything from the simplified values map
to the dead instructions set, so the first step is completely subsumed
by the second. Moreover, the first step requires *inserting* something
into the simplified value map which isn't what we want at all.
This also replaces a dyn_cast with a cast as an instruction cannot be
used by a non-instruction.
llvm-svn: 229057
check.
Also hoist this into the enqueue process as it is faster even than
testing the worklist set, we should just directly filter these out much
like we filter out constants and such.
llvm-svn: 229056
We don't just want to handle duplicate operands within an instruction,
but also duplicates across operands of different instructions. I should
have gone straight to this, but I had convinced myself that it wasn't
going to be necessary briefly. I've come to my senses after chatting
more with Nick, and am now happier here.
llvm-svn: 229054
reasonably quickly.
I don't have a reduced test case, but for a version of FFMPEG, this
makes the loop unroller start finishing at all (after over 15 minutes of
running, it hadn't terminated for me, no idea if it was a true infloop
or just exponential work).
The key thing here is to check the DeadInstructions set when pulling
things off the worklist. Without this, we would re-walk the user list of
already dead instructions again and again and again. Consider phi nodes
with many, many operands and other patterns.
The other important aspect of this is that because we would keep
re-visiting instructions that were already known dead, we kept adding
their cost savings to this! This would cause our cost savings to be
*insanely* inflated from this.
While I was here, I also rotated the operand walk out of the worklist
loop to make the code easier to read. There is still work to be done to
minimize worklist traffic because we don't de-duplicate operands. This
means we may add the same instruction onto the worklist 1000s of times
if it shows up in 1000s of operansd to a PHI node for example.
Still, with this patch, the ffmpeg testcase I have finishes quickly and
I can't measure the runtime impact of the unroll analysis any more. I'll
probably try to do a few more cleanups to this code, but not sure how
much cleanup I can justify right now.
llvm-svn: 229038
readable.
The biggest thing that was causing me problems is recognizing the
references vs. poniters here. I also found that for maps naming the loop
variable as KeyValue helps make it obvious why you don't actually use it
directly. Finally, using 'auto' instead of 'User *' doesn't seem like
a good tradeoff. Much like with the other cases, I like to know its
a pointer, and 'User' is just as long and tells the reader a lot more.
llvm-svn: 229033
hard to type and read for me, and is inconsistent with the other
abbreviation in the base class "Inst". For most of these (where they are
used widely) I prefer just spelling it out as Instruction. I've changed
two of the short-lived variables to use "Inst" to match the base class.
llvm-svn: 229028
This is much more efficient. In particular, the query with the user
instruction has to insert a false for every missing instruction into the
set. This is just a cleanup a long the way to fixing the underlying
algorithm problems here.
llvm-svn: 228994
When we try to estimate number of potentially removed instructions in
loop unroller, we analyze first N iterations and then scale the
computed number by TripCount/N. We should bail out early if N is 0.
llvm-svn: 228988
If complete-unroll could help us to optimize away N% of instructions, we
might want to do this even if the final size would exceed loop-unroll
threshold. However, we don't want to unroll huge loop, and we are add
AbsoluteThreshold to avoid that - this threshold will never be crossed,
even if we expect to optimize 99% instructions after that.
llvm-svn: 228434
It is a variation of SimplifyBinOp, but it takes into account
FastMathFlags.
It is needed in inliner and loop-unroller to accurately predict the
transformation's outcome (previously we dropped the flags and were too
conservative in some cases).
Example:
float foo(float *a, float b) {
float r;
if (a[1] * b)
r = /* a lot of expensive computations */;
else
r = 1;
return r;
}
float boo(float *a) {
return foo(a, 0.0);
}
Without this patch, we don't inline 'foo' into 'boo'.
llvm-svn: 228432
Complete loop unrolling can make some loads constant, thus enabling a
lot of other optimizations. To catch such cases, we look for loads that
might become constants and estimate number of instructions that would be
simplified or become dead after substitution.
Example:
Suppose we have:
int a[] = {0, 1, 0};
v = 0;
for (i = 0; i < 3; i ++)
v += b[i]*a[i];
If we completely unroll the loop, we would get:
v = b[0]*a[0] + b[1]*a[1] + b[2]*a[2]
Which then will be simplified to:
v = b[0]* 0 + b[1]* 1 + b[2]* 0
And finally:
v = b[1]

type erased interface and a single analysis pass rather than an
extremely complex analysis group.
The end result is that the TTI analysis can contain a type erased
implementation that supports the polymorphic TTI interface. We can build
one from a target-specific implementation or from a dummy one in the IR.
I've also factored all of the code into "mix-in"-able base classes,
including CRTP base classes to facilitate calling back up to the most
specialized form when delegating horizontally across the surface. These
aren't as clean as I would like and I'm planning to work on cleaning
some of this up, but I wanted to start by putting into the right form.
There are a number of reasons for this change, and this particular
design. The first and foremost reason is that an analysis group is
complete overkill, and the chaining delegation strategy was so opaque,
confusing, and high overhead that TTI was suffering greatly for it.
Several of the TTI functions had failed to be implemented in all places
because of the chaining-based delegation making there be no checking of
this. A few other functions were implemented with incorrect delegation.
The message to me was very clear working on this -- the delegation and
analysis group structure was too confusing to be useful here.
The other reason of course is that this is *much* more natural fit for
the new pass manager. This will lay the ground work for a type-erased
per-function info object that can look up the correct subtarget and even
cache it.
Yet another benefit is that this will significantly simplify the
interaction of the pass managers and the TargetMachine. See the future
work below.
The downside of this change is that it is very, very verbose. I'm going
to work to improve that, but it is somewhat an implementation necessity
in C++ to do type erasure. =/ I discussed this design really extensively
with Eric and Hal prior to going down this path, and afterward showed
them the result. No one was really thrilled with it, but there doesn't
seem to be a substantially better alternative. Using a base class and
virtual method dispatch would make the code much shorter, but as
discussed in the update to the programmer's manual and elsewhere,
a polymorphic interface feels like the more principled approach even if
this is perhaps the least compelling example of it. ;]
Ultimately, there is still a lot more to be done here, but this was the
huge chunk that I couldn't really split things out of because this was
the interface change to TTI. I've tried to minimize all the other parts
of this. The follow up work should include at least:
1) Improving the TargetMachine interface by having it directly return
a TTI object. Because we have a non-pass object with value semantics
and an internal type erasure mechanism, we can narrow the interface
of the TargetMachine to *just* do what we need: build and return
a TTI object that we can then insert into the pass pipeline.
2) Make the TTI object be fully specialized for a particular function.
This will include splitting off a minimal form of it which is
sufficient for the inliner and the old pass manager.
3) Add a new pass manager analysis which produces TTI objects from the
target machine for each function. This may actually be done as part
of #2 in order to use the new analysis to implement #2.
4) Work on narrowing the API between TTI and the targets so that it is
easier to understand and less verbose to type erase.
5) Work on narrowing the API between TTI and its clients so that it is
easier to understand and less verbose to forward.
6) Try to improve the CRTP-based delegation. I feel like this code is
just a bit messy and exacerbating the complexity of implementing
the TTI in each target.
Many thanks to Eric and Hal for their help here. I ended up blocked on
this somewhat more abruptly than I expected, and so I appreciate getting
it sorted out very quickly.

When we compute the size of a loop, we include the branch on the backedge and
the comparison feeding the conditional branch. Under normal circumstances,
these don't get replicated with the rest of the loop body when we unroll. This
led to the somewhat surprising behavior that really small loops would not get
unrolled enough -- they could be unrolled more and the resulting loop would be
below the threshold, because we were assuming they'd take
(LoopSize * UnrollingFactor) instructions after unrolling, instead of
(((LoopSize-2) * UnrollingFactor)+2) instructions. This fixes that computation.

a cache of assumptions for a single function, and an immutable pass that
manages those caches.
The motivation for this change is two fold. Immutable analyses are
really hacks around the current pass manager design and don't exist in
the new design. This is usually OK, but it requires that the core logic
of an immutable pass be reasonably partitioned off from the pass logic.
This change does precisely that. As a consequence it also paves the way
for the *many* utility functions that deal in the assumptions to live in
both pass manager worlds by creating an separate non-pass object with
its own independent API that they all rely on. Now, the only bits of the
system that deal with the actual pass mechanics are those that actually
need to deal with the pass mechanics.
Once this separation is made, several simplifications become pretty
obvious in the assumption cache itself. Rather than using a set and
callback value handles, it can just be a vector of weak value handles.
The callers can easily skip the handles that are null, and eventually we
can wrap all of this up behind a filter iterator.
For now, this adds boiler plate to the various passes, but this kind of
boiler plate will end up making it possible to port these passes to the
new pass manager, and so it will end up factored away pretty reasonably.

Split `Metadata` away from the `Value` class hierarchy, as part of
PR21532. Assembly and bitcode changes are in the wings, but this is the
bulk of the change for the IR C++ API.
I have a follow-up patch prepared for `clang`. If this breaks other
sub-projects, I apologize in advance :(. Help me compile it on Darwin
I'll try to fix it. FWIW, the errors should be easy to fix, so it may
be simpler to just fix it yourself.
This breaks the build for all metadata-related code that's out-of-tree.
Rest assured the transition is mechanical and the compiler should catch
almost all of the problems.
Here's a quick guide for updating your code:
- `Metadata` is the root of a class hierarchy with three main classes:
`MDNode`, `MDString`, and `ValueAsMetadata`. It is distinct from
the `Value` class hierarchy. It is typeless -- i.e., instances do
*not* have a `Type`.
- `MDNode`'s operands are all `Metadata *` (instead of `Value *`).
- `TrackingVH<MDNode>` and `WeakVH` referring to metadata can be
replaced with `TrackingMDNodeRef` and `TrackingMDRef`, respectively.
If you're referring solely to resolved `MDNode`s -- post graph
construction -- just use `MDNode*`.
- `MDNode` (and the rest of `Metadata`) have only limited support for
`replaceAllUsesWith()`.
As long as an `MDNode` is pointing at a forward declaration -- the
result of `MDNode::getTemporary()` -- it maintains a side map of its
uses and can RAUW itself. Once the forward declarations are fully
resolved RAUW support is dropped on the ground. This means that
uniquing collisions on changing operands cause nodes to become
"distinct". (This already happened fairly commonly, whenever an
operand went to null.)
If you're constructing complex (non self-reference) `MDNode` cycles,
you need to call `MDNode::resolveCycles()` on each node (or on a
top-level node that somehow references all of the nodes). Also,
don't do that. Metadata cycles (and the RAUW machinery needed to
construct them) are expensive.
- An `MDNode` can only refer to a `Constant` through a bridge called
`ConstantAsMetadata` (one of the subclasses of `ValueAsMetadata`).
As a side effect, accessing an operand of an `MDNode` that is known
to be, e.g., `ConstantInt`, takes three steps: first, cast from
`Metadata` to `ConstantAsMetadata`; second, extract the `Constant`;
third, cast down to `ConstantInt`.
The eventual goal is to introduce `MDInt`/`MDFloat`/etc. and have
metadata schema owners transition away from using `Constant`s when
the type isn't important (and they don't care about referring to
`GlobalValue`s).
In the meantime, I've added transitional API to the `mdconst`
namespace that matches semantics with the old code, in order to
avoid adding the error-prone three-step equivalent to every call
site. If your old code was:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
you can trivially match its semantics with:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(mdconst::hasa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(mdconst::extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(mdconst::extract_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(mdconst::dyn_extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(mdconst::dyn_extract_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
and when you transition your metadata schema to `MDInt`:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <MDInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <MDInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<MDInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
- A `CallInst` -- specifically, intrinsic instructions -- can refer to
metadata through a bridge called `MetadataAsValue`. This is a
subclass of `Value` where `getType()->isMetadataTy()`.
`MetadataAsValue` is the *only* class that can legally refer to a
`LocalAsMetadata`, which is a bridged form of non-`Constant` values
like `Argument` and `Instruction`. It can also refer to any other
`Metadata` subclass.
(I'll break all your testcases in a follow-up commit, when I propagate
this change to assembly.)

routines and fix all of the bugs they expose.
I hit a test case that crashed even without these asserts due to passing
a non-exiting latch to the ExitingBlock parameter of the trip count
computation machinery. However, when I add the nice asserts, it turns
out we have plenty of coverage of these bugs, they just didn't manifest
in crashers.
The core problem seems to stem from an assumption that the latch *is*
the exiting block. While this is often true, and somewhat the "normal"
way to think about loops, it isn't necessarily true. The correct way to
call the trip count routines in a *generic* fashion (that is, without
a particular exit in mind) is to just use the loop's single exiting
block if it has one. The trip count can't be computed generically unless
it does. This works great for the loop vectorizer. The loop unroller
actually *wants* to select the latch when it has to chose between
multiple exits because for unrolling it is the latch trips that matter.
But if this is the desire, it needs to explicitly guard for non-exiting
latches and check for the generic trip count in that case.
I've added the asserts, and added convenience APIs for querying the trip
count generically that check for a single exit block. I've kept the APIs
consistent between computing trip count and trip multiples.
Thansk to Mark for the help debugging and tracking down the *right* fix
here!

This adds a set of utility functions for collecting 'ephemeral' values. These
are LLVM IR values that are used only by @llvm.assume intrinsics (directly or
indirectly), and thus will be removed prior to code generation, implying that
they should be considered free for certain purposes (like inlining). The
inliner's cost analysis, and a few other passes, have been updated to account
for ephemeral values using the provided functionality.
This functionality is important for the usability of @llvm.assume, because it
limits the "non-local" side-effects of adding llvm.assume on inlining, loop
unrolling, etc. (these are hints, and do not generate code, so they should not
directly contribute to estimates of execution cost).

to keep stale functions and intrinsics out of the map, and it relies on any
code that creates new @llvm.assume calls to notify it of the new instructions.
The benefit is that code needing to find @llvm.assume intrinsics can do so
directly, without scanning the function, thus allowing the cost of @llvm.assume
handling to be negligible when none are present.
The current design is intended to be lightweight. We don't keep track of
anything until we need a list of assumptions in some function. The first time
this happens, we scan the function. After that, we add/remove @llvm.assume
calls from the cache in response to registration calls and ValueHandle
callbacks.
There are no new direct test cases for this pass, but because it calls it
validation function upon module finalization, we'll pick up detectable
inconsistencies from the other tests that touch @llvm.assume calls.
This pass will be used by follow-up commits that make use of @llvm.assume.

hint) the loop unroller replaces the llvm.loop.unroll.count metadata with
llvm.loop.unroll.disable metadata to prevent any subsequent unrolling
passes from unrolling more than the hint indicates. This patch fixes
an issue where loop unrolling could be disabled for other loops as well which
share the same llvm.loop metadata.

[LLVM part]
These patches rename the loop unrolling and loop vectorizer metadata
such that they have a common 'llvm.loop.' prefix. Metadata name
changes:
llvm.vectorizer.* => llvm.loop.vectorizer.*
llvm.loopunroll.* => llvm.loop.unroll.*
This was a suggestion from an earlier review
(http://reviews.llvm.org/D4090) which added the loop unrolling
metadata.

Otherwise we use the same threshold as for complete unrolling, which is
way too high. This made us unroll any loop smaller than 150 instructions
by 8 times, but only if someone specified -march=core2 or better,
which happens to be the default on darwin.

definition below all of the header #include lines, lib/Transforms/...
edition.
This one is tricky for two reasons. We again have a couple of passes
that define something else before the includes as well. I've sunk their
name macros with the DEBUG_TYPE.
Also, InstCombine contains headers that need DEBUG_TYPE, so now those
headers #define and #undef DEBUG_TYPE around their code, leaving them
well formed modular headers. Fixing these headers was a large motivation
for all of these changes, as "leaky" macros of this form are hard on the
modules implementation.

In preparation for an upcoming commit implementing unrolling preferences for
x86, this adds additional fields to the UnrollingPreferences structure:
- PartialThreshold and PartialOptSizeThreshold - Like Threshold and
OptSizeThreshold, but used when not fully unrolling. These are necessary
because we need different thresholds for full unrolling from those used when
partially unrolling (the full unrolling thresholds are generally going to be
larger).
- MaxCount - A cap on the unrolling factor when partially unrolling. This can
be used by a target to prevent the unrolled loop from exceeding some
resource limit independent of the loop size (such as number of branches).
There should be no functionality change for any in-tree targets.
llvm-svn: 205347
The generic (concatenation) loop unroller is currently placed early in the
standard optimization pipeline. This is a good place to perform full unrolling,
but not the right place to perform partial/runtime unrolling. However, most
targets don't enable partial/runtime unrolling, so this never mattered.
However, even some x86 cores benefit from partial/runtime unrolling of very
small loops, and follow-up commits will enable this. First, we need to move
partial/runtime unrolling late in the optimization pipeline (importantly, this
is after SLP and loop vectorization, as vectorization can drastically change
the size of a loop), while keeping the full unrolling where it is now. This
change does just that.
llvm-svn: 205264
Ideally only those transform passes that run at -O0 remain enabled,
in reality we get as close as we reasonably can.
Passes are responsible for disabling themselves, it's not the job of
the pass manager to do it for them.

function and a FunctionPass.
This has many benefits. The motivating use case was to be able to
compute function analysis passes *after* running LoopSimplify (to avoid
invalidating them) and then to run other passes which require
LoopSimplify. Specifically passes like unrolling and vectorization are
critical to wire up to BranchProbabilityInfo and BlockFrequencyInfo so
that they can be profile aware. For the LoopVectorize pass the only
things in the way are LoopSimplify and LCSSA. This fixes LoopSimplify
and LCSSA is next on my list.
There are also a bunch of other benefits of doing this:
- It is now very feasible to make more passes *preserve* LoopSimplify
because they can simply run it after changing a loop. Because
subsequence passes can assume LoopSimplify is preserved we can reduce
the runs of this pass to the times when we actually mutate a loop
structure.
- The new pass manager should be able to more easily support loop passes
factored in this way.
- We can at long, long last observe that LoopSimplify is preserved
across SCEV. This *halves* the number of times we run LoopSimplify!!!
Now, getting here wasn't trivial. First off, the interfaces used by
LoopSimplify are all over the map regarding how analysis are updated. We
end up with weird "pass" parameters as a consequence. I'll try to clean
at least some of this up later -- I'll have to have it all clean for the
new pass manager.
Next up I discovered a really frustrating bug. LoopUnroll *claims* to
preserve LoopSimplify. That's actually a lie. But the way the
LoopPassManager ends up running the passes, it always ran LoopSimplify
on the unrolled-into loop, rectifying this oversight before any
verification could kick in and point out that in fact nothing was
preserved. So I've added code to the unroller to *actually* simplify the
surrounding loop when it succeeds at unrolling.
The only functional change in the test suite is that we now catch a case
that was previously missed because SCEV and other loop transforms see
their containing loops as simplified and thus don't miss some
opportunities. One test case has been converted to check that we catch
this case rather than checking that we miss it but at least don't get
the wrong answer.
Note that I have #if-ed out all of the verification logic in
LoopSimplify! This is a temporary workaround while extracting these bits
from the LoopPassManager. Currently, there is no way to have a pass in
the LoopPassManager which preserves LoopSimplify along with one which
does not. The LPM will try to verify on each loop in the nest that
LoopSimplify holds but the now-Function-pass cannot distinguish what
loop is being verified and so must try to verify all of them. The inner
most loop is clearly no longer simplified as there is a pass which
didn't even *attempt* to preserve it. =/ Once I get LCSSA out (and maybe
LoopVectorize and some other fixes) I'll be able to re-enable this check
and catch any places where we are still failing to preserve
LoopSimplify. If this causes problems I can back this out and try to
commit *all* of this at once, but so far this seems to work and allow
much more incremental progress.

can be used by both the new pass manager and the old.
This removes it from any of the virtual mess of the pass interfaces and
lets it derive cleanly from the DominatorTreeBase<> template. In turn,
tons of boilerplate interface can be nuked and it turns into a very
straightforward extension of the base DominatorTree interface.
The old analysis pass is now a simple wrapper. The names and style of
this split should match the split between CallGraph and
CallGraphWrapperPass. All of the users of DominatorTree have been
updated to match using many of the same tricks as with CallGraph. The
goal is that the common type remains the resulting DominatorTree rather
than the pass. This will make subsequent work toward the new pass
manager significantly easier.
Also in numerous places things became cleaner because I switched from
re-running the pass (!!! mid way through some other passes run!!!) to
directly recomputing the domtree.

directory. These passes are already defined in the IR library, and it
doesn't make any sense to have the headers in Analysis.
Long term, I think there is going to be a much better way to divide
these matters. The dominators code should be fully separated into the
abstract graph algorithm and have that put in Support where it becomes
obvious that evn Clang's CFGBlock's can use it. Then the verifier can
manually construct dominance information from the Support-driven
interface while the Analysis library can provide a pass which both
caches, reconstructs, and supports a nice update API.
But those are very long term, and so I don't want to leave the really
confusing structure until that day arrives.
llvm-svn: 199082
As with the other loop unrolling parameters (the unrolling threshold, partial
unrolling, etc.) runtime unrolling can now also be controlled via the
constructor. This will be necessary for moving non-trivial unrolling late in
the pass manager (after loop vectorization).
No functionality change intended.

this is enough to allow deleting the duplicate code there for computing
whether an instruction is free.

into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).
I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

We use the enums to query whether an Attributes object has that attribute. The

Patch by Brendon Cahoon!
This extends the existing LoopUnroll and LoopUnrollPass. Brendon
measured no regressions in the llvm test suite with -unroll-runtime
enabled. This implementation works by using the existing loop
unrolling code to unroll the loop by a power-of-two (default 8). It
generates an if-then-else sequence of code prior to the loop to
execute the extra iterations before entering the unrolled loop.
llvm-svn: 146245
We want heuristics to be based on accurate data, but more importantly
we don't want llvm to behave randomly. A benign trunc inserted by an
upstream pass should not cause a wild swings in optimization
level. See PR11034. It's a general problem with threshold-based
heuristics, but we can make it less bad.
llvm-svn: 140919
This changes loop unrolling to use the same mechanism for trip count
computation as indvars. This is a stronger check that tends to unroll
more loops. A very common side-effect is that many single iteration
loops will be removed sooner. The real goal was simply to remove
dependence on canonical IVs.
x86 is break even.

SCEV unrolling can unroll loops with arbitrary induction variables. It
is a prerequisite for -disable-iv-rewrite performance. It is also
easily handles loops of arbitrary structure including multiple exits
and is generally more robust.
This is under a temporary option to avoid affecting default
behavior for the next couple of weeks. It is needed so that I can
checkin unit tests for updateUnloop.
