This backend supports besides the classical code generation the upcoming SCEV
based code generation (which the existing CLooG backend does not support
robustly).
OpenMP code generation in the isl backend benefits from our run-time alias
checks such that the set of loops that can possibly be parallelized is a lot
larger.
The code was tested on LNT. We do not regress on builds without -polly-parallel.
When using -polly-parallel most tests work flawlessly, but a few issues still
remain and will be addressed in follow up commits.
SCEV/non-SCEV codegen:
- Compile time failure in ldecod and TimberWolfMC due a problem in our
run-time alias check generation triggered by pointers that escape through
the OpenMP subfunction (OpenMP specific).
- Several execution time failures. Due to the larger set of loops that we now
parallelize (compared to the classical code generation), we currently run
into some timeouts in tests with a lot loops that have a low trip count and
are slowed down by parallelizing them.
SCEV only:
- One existing failure in lencod due to llvm.org/PR21204 (not OpenMP specific)
OpenMP code generation is the last feature that was only available in the CLooG
backend. With the isl backend being the only one supporting features such as
run-time alias checks and delinearization, we will soon switch to use the isl
ast generator by the default and subsequently remove our dependency on CLooG.

Polly was accidently modifying a debug info metadata node when
attempting to generate a new unique metadata node for the loop id.
The problem was that we had dwarf metadata that referred to a
metadata node with a null value, like this:
!6 = ... some dwarf metadata referring to !7 ...
!7 = {null}
When we attempt to generate a new metadata node, we reserve the
first space for self-referential node by setting the first argument
to null and then mutating the node later to refer to itself.
However, because the nodes are uniqued based on pointer values, when
we get the new metadata node it actually referred to an existing
node (!7 in the example). When we went to modify the metadata to
point to itself, we were accidently mutating the dwarf metatdata. We
ended up in this situation:
!6 = ... some dwarf metadata referring to !7 ...
!7 = {!7}
and this causes an assert when generating the debug info. The fix is
simple, we just need to use a unique value when getting a new
metadata node. The MDNode::getTemporary() provides exactly the API
we need (and it is used in clang to generate the unique nodes).

We introduces a new flag -polly-parallel and use it to annotate the for-nodes in
the isl ast that we want to execute thread parallel (e.g., using OpenMP). We
previously already emmitted openmp annotations, but we did this for various
kinds of parallel loops, including some which we can not run in parallel.
With this patch we now have three annotations:
1) #pragma known-parallel [reduction]
2) #pragma omp for
3) #pragma simd
meaning:
1) loop has no loop carried dependences
2) loop will be executed thread-parallel
3) loop can possibly be vectorized
This patch introduces 1) and reduces the use of 2) to only the cases where we
will actually generate thread parallel code.
It is in preparation of openmp code generation in our isl backend.
Legacy:
- We also have a command line option -enable-polly-openmp. This option controls
the OpenMP code generation in CLooG. It will become an alias of
-polly-parallel after the CLooG code generation has been dropped.

This patch moves the SCEV based (re)generation of values before the checking for
scop-constant terms. It enables us to provide SCEV based replacements, which
are necessary to correctly generate OpenMP subfunctions when using the SCEV
based code generation.
When recomputing a new value for a value used in the code of the original scop,
we previously directly returned the same original value for all scop-constant
expressions without even trying to regenerate these values using our SCEV
expression. This is correct when the newly generated code remains fully in the
same function, however in case we want to outline parts of the newly generated
scop into subfunctions, this approach means we do not have any opportunity to
update these values in the SCEV based code generation. (In the non-SCEV based
code generation, we can provide such updates through the GlobalMap). To ensure
we have this opportunity, we first try to regenerate scalar terms with our SCEV
builder and will only return scop-constant expressions if SCEV based code
generation was not possible.
This change should not affect the results of the existing code generation
passes. It only impacts the upcoming OpenMP based code generation.
This commit also adds a test case. This test case passes before and after this
commit. It was added to ensure test coverage for the changed code.

There was no good reason why this code was split accross two functions.
In subsequent changes we will change the order in which values are looked up.
Doing so would make the split into two functions even more arbitrary.
We also slightly improve the documentation.

When our RuntimeDebugBuilder calles fflush(NULL) to flush all output streams, it
is important that the types we use in the call match the ones used in a
declaration of fflush possible already available in the translation unit.
As we just pass on a NULL pointer, the type of the pointer value does not really
matter. However, as LLVM complains in case of mismatched types, we make sure
to create a NULL pointer of identical type.
No test case, as RuntimeDebugBuilder is not permanently used in Polly. Calls to
it are until now only used to add informative output during debugging sessions.

Originally we have needed this code to map the isl_id of an array to its base
pointer. However, as now the isl_id contains a reference to the array itself we
obtain the base pointer from this isl_id and we do not need to add this
information to the IDToValue map.

The description of the parameter value passed to -enable-polly-aligned did
not make any sense at all, but was just a leftover coming from when this option
was copied form -enable-polly-openmp. We just drop it as the option description
gives sufficient information already.

This makes sure we consistently use dbgs() when printing debug output.
Previously, the code just mixed calls to isl_*_dump() with printing to dbgs()
and was relying for both methods to interact in predictable ways (same output
stream, no unexpected reordering of outputs).
llvm-svn: 220443
By adding braces into the DEBUG statement we can make clang-format format code
such as:
DEBUG(stmt1(); stmt2())
as multi-line code:
DEBUG({
stmt1();
stmt2();
});
This makes control-flow in debug statements easier to read.

This patch changes the RegionSet type used in ScopDetection from a
std::set to a llvm::SetVector. The reason for the change is to
ensure deterministic output when printing the result of the
analysis. We had a windows buildbot failure for the modified test
because the output was coming in a different order.
Only one test case needed to be modified for this change. We could
use CHECK-DAG directives instead of CHECK in the analysis test cases
because the actual order of scops does not matter, but I think that
change should be done in a separate patch that modifies all the
appliciable tests. I simply modified the test to reflect the
expected deterministic output.

This patch does not change the semantic on it's own. However, the
dependence analysis as well as dce will now use the newest available
access relation for each memory access, thus if at some point the json
importer or any other pass will run before those two and set a new
access relation the behaviour will be different. In general it is
unclear if the dependence analysis and dce should be run on the old or
new access functions anyway. If we need to access the original access
function from the outside later, we can expose the getter again.

We restricted the new access functions to be a subset of the old one
because we want to keep the alignment, however if the alignment is
"not special", thus the default for the type, we can allow any access.

In case the pieceweise affine function used to create an isl_ast_expr
had empty cases (e.g., with contradicting constraints on the
parameters), it was possible that the condition of the isl_ast_expr
select was not a comparison but a constant (thus of type i64).
This patch does two thing:
1) Handle the case the condition of a select is not a i1 type like C.
2) Try to simplify the pieceweise affine functions for the min/max
access when we generate runtime alias checks. That step can often
remove empty or redundant cases as well as redundant constrains.

This class allows to store information about the arrays in the SCoP.
For each base pointer in the SCoP one object is created storing the
type and dimension sizes of the array. The objects can be obtained via
the SCoP, a MemoryAccess or the isl_id associated with the output
dimension of a MemoryAccess (the description of what is accessed).
So far we use the information in the IslExprBuilder to create the
right base type before indexing into the base array. This fixes the
bug http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=21113 (both test cases are
included). On top of that we can now build runtime alias checks for
delinearized arrays as the dimension sizes are also part of the
ScopArrayInfo objects.
