named getConstantStringLength. This is the common part of StrCpy and
StrLen optimizations and probably several others, yet to be written. It
performs all the validity checks for looking at constant arrays that are
supposed to be null-terminated strings and then computes the actual
length of the string.
* Implement the MemCpyOptimization class. This just turns memcpy of 1, 2, 4
and 8 byte data blocks that are properly aligned on those boundaries into
a load and a store. Much more could be done here but alignment
restrictions and lack of knowledge of the target instruction set prevent
use from doing significantly more. That will have to be delegated to the
code generators as they lower llvm.memcpy calls.

subtracts. This is a very rough and nasty implementation of Lefevre's
"pattern finding" algorithm. With a few small changes though, it should
end up beating most other methods in common use, regardless of the size
of the constant (currently, it's often one or two shifts worse)
TODO: rewrite it so it's not hideously ugly (this is a translation from
perl, which doesn't help ;)
bypass most of it for multiplies by 2^n+1
(eventually) teach it that some combinations of shift+add are
cheaper than others (e.g. shladd on ia64, scaled adds on alpha)
get it to try multiple booth encodings in search of the cheapest
routine
make it work for negative constants
This is hacked up as a DAG->DAG transform, so once I clean it up I hope
it'll be pulled out of here and put somewhere else. The only thing backends
should really have to worry about for now is where to draw the line
between using this code vs. going ahead and doing an integer multiply
anyway.

* Rename ExitInMain and StrCat tests so they don't have the date the
regression was entered since they are feature tests, not regressions.
llvm-svn: 21558
* Change signatures of OptimizeCall and ValidateCalledFunction so they are
non-const, allowing the optimization object to be modified. This is in
support of caching things used across multiple calls.
* Provide two functions for constructing and caching function types
* Modify the StrCatOptimization to cache Function objects for strlen and
llvm.memcpy so it doesn't regenerate them on each call site. Make sure
these are invalidated each time we start the pass.
* Handle both a GEP Instruction and a GEP ConstantExpr
* Add additional checks to make sure we really are dealing with an arary of
sbyte and that all the element initializers are ConstantInt or
ConstantExpr that reduce to ConstantInt.
* Make sure the GlobalVariable is constant!
* Don't use ConstantArray::getString as it can fail and it doesn't give us
the right thing. We must check for null bytes in the middle of the array.
* Use llvm.memcpy instead of memcpy so we can factor alignment into it.
* Don't use void* types in signatures, replace with sbyte* instead.
llvm-svn: 21555
* Don't use std::string for the function names, const char* will suffice
* Allow each CallOptimizer to validate the function signature before
doing anything
* Repeatedly loop over the functions until an iteration produces
no more optimizations. This allows one optimization to insert a
call that is optimized by another optimization.
* Implement the ConstantArray portion of the StrCatOptimization
* Provide a template for the MemCpyOptimization
* Make ExitInMainOptimization split the block, not delete everything
after the return instruction.
(This covers revision 1.3 and 1.4, as the 1.3 comments were botched)
llvm-svn: 21548
* Fix comments at top of file
* Change algorithm for running the call optimizations from n*n to something
closer to n.
* Use a hash_map to store and lookup the optimizations since there will
eventually (or potentially) be a large number of them. This gets lookup
based on the name of the function to O(1). Each CallOptimizer now has a
std::string member named func_name that tracks the name of the function
that it applies to. It is this string that is entered into the hash_map
for fast comparison against the function names encountered in the module.
* Cleanup some style issues pertaining to iterator invalidation
* Don't pass the Function pointer to the OptimizeCall function because if
the optimization needs it, it can get it from the CallInst passed in.
* Add the skeleton for a new CallOptimizer, StrCatOptimizer which will
eventually replace strcat's of constant strings with direct copies.

calls. The pass visits all external functions in the module and determines
if such function calls can be optimized. The optimizations are specific to
the library calls involved. This initial version only optimizes calls to
exit(3) when they occur in main(): it changes them to ret instructions.
