Summary:
Runtime unrolling of loops needs to emit an expression to compute the
loop's runtime trip-count. Avoid runtime unrolling if this computation
will be expensive.
Depends on D8993.

Clean up a predicate I added in r229731, fix the relevant comment and
add a test case. The earlier version is confusing to read and was also
buggy (probably not a coincidence) till Alexey fixed it in r233881.

It's firstly committed at r231630, and reverted at r231635.
Function pass InstructionSimplifier is inserted as barrier to
make sure loop unroll pass won't affect on LICM pass.

For inner one of nested loops, it is more likely to be a hot loop,
and the runtime check can be promoted out from patch 0001, so the
overhead is less, we can try a doubled threshold to unroll more loops.
llvm-svn: 231632
Runtime unrolling is an expensive optimization which can bring benefit
only if the loop is hot and iteration number is relatively large enough.
For some loops, we know they are not worth to be runtime unrolled.
The scalar loop from vectorization is one of the cases.
llvm-svn: 231631
Runtime unrollng will introduce a runtime check in loop prologue.
If the unrolled loop is a inner loop, then the proglogue will be inside
the outer loop. LICM pass can help to promote the runtime check out if
the checked value is loop invariant.

Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.
A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)

One of several parallel first steps to remove the target type of pointers,
replacing them with a single opaque pointer type.
This adds an explicit type parameter to the gep instruction so that when the
first parameter becomes an opaque pointer type, the type to gep through is
still available to the instructions.
* This doesn't modify gep operators, only instructions (operators will be
handled separately)
* Textual IR changes only. Bitcode (including upgrade) and changing the
in-memory representation will be in separate changes.
* geps of vectors are transformed as:
getelementptr <4 x float*> %x, ...
->getelementptr float, <4 x float*> %x, ...
Then, once the opaque pointer type is introduced, this will ultimately look
like:
getelementptr float, <4 x ptr> %x
with the unambiguous interpretation that it is a vector of pointers to float.
* address spaces remain on the pointer, not the type:
getelementptr float addrspace(1)* %x
->getelementptr float, float addrspace(1)* %x
Then, eventually:
getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %x
Importantly, the massive amount of test case churn has been automated by
same crappy python code. I had to manually update a few test cases that
wouldn't fit the script's model (r228970,r229196,r229197,r229198). The
python script just massages stdin and writes the result to stdout, I
then wrapped that in a shell script to handle replacing files, then
using the usual find+xargs to migrate all the files.

From llvm/src/tools/polly:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh
After that, check-all (with llvm, clang, clang-tools-extra, lld,
compiler-rt, and polly all checked out).
The extra 'rm' in the apply.sh script is due to a few files in clang's test
suite using interesting unicode stuff that my python script was throwing
exceptions on. None of those files needed to be migrated, so it seemed
sufficient to ignore those cases.

Don't spend the entire iteration space in the scalar loop prologue if
computing the trip count overflows. This change also gets rid of the
backedge check in the prologue loop and the extra check for
overflowing trip-count.

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
original commit thread with details and a proposal for how to redesign
things. I'm disabling this for now so that we don't spend time
debugging issues with it in its current state.
llvm-svn: 229064
Now that the way that the partial unrolling threshold for small loops is used
to compute the unrolling factor as been corrected, a slightly smaller threshold
is preferable. This is expected; other targets may need to re-tune as well.
llvm-svn: 225566
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.
llvm-svn: 225565
The P7 benefits from not have really-small loops so that we either have
multiple dispatch groups in the loop and/or the ability to form more-full
dispatch groups during scheduling. Setting the partial unrolling threshold to
44 seems good, empirically, for the P7. Compared to using no late partial
unrolling, this yields the following test-suite speedups:
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Adobe-C++/simple_types_constant_folding
-66.3253% +/- 24.1975%
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc-C++/oopack_v1p8
-44.0169% +/- 29.4881%
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/pi
-27.8351% +/- 12.2712%
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Stanford/Bubblesort
-30.9898% +/- 22.4647%
I've speculatively added a similar setting for the P8. Also, I've noticed that
the unroller does not quite calculate the unrolling factor correctly for really
tiny loops because it neglects to account for the fact that not every loop body
replicant contains an ending branch and counter increment. I'll fix that later.

Propagate whether `MDNode`s are 'distinct' through the other types of IR
(assembly and bitcode). This adds the `distinct` keyword to assembly.
Currently, no one actually calls `MDNode::getDistinct()`, so these nodes
only get created for:
- self-references, which are never uniqued, and
- nodes whose operands are replaced that hit a uniquing collision.
The concept of distinct nodes is still not quite first-class, since
distinct-ness doesn't yet survive across `MapMetadata()`.
Part of PR22111.
llvm-svn: 225474
Now that `Metadata` is typeless, reflect that in the assembly. These
are the matching assembly changes for the metadata/value split in
r223802.
- Only use the `metadata` type when referencing metadata from a call
intrinsic -- i.e., only when it's used as a `Value`.
- Stop pretending that `ValueAsMetadata` is wrapped in an `MDNode`
when referencing it from call intrinsics.
So, assembly like this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 %v}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 7}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !1, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{metadata !3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = metadata !{metadata !2}
!1 = metadata !{i32* @global}
!2 = metadata !{metadata !3}
!3 = metadata !{}
turns into this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 %v, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 7, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32* @global, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{!3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = !{!2}
!1 = !{i32* @global}
!2 = !{!3}
!3 = !{}
I wrote an upgrade script that handled almost all of the tests in llvm
and many of the tests in cfe (even handling many `CHECK` lines). I've
attached it (or will attach it in a moment if you're speedy) to PR21532
to help everyone update their out-of-tree testcases.
This is part of PR21532.

Currently LoopUnroll generates a prologue loop before the main loop
body to execute first N%UnrollFactor iterations. Also, this loop is
used if trip-count can overflow - it's determined by a runtime check.
However, we've been mistakenly optimizing this loop to a linear code for
UnrollFactor = 2, not taking into account that it also serves as a safe
version of the loop if its trip-count overflows.
llvm-svn: 222451
In a case where we have a no {un,}signed wrap flag on the increment, if
RHS - Start is constant then we can avoid inserting a max operation bewteen
the two, since we can statically determine which is greater.
This allows us to unroll loops such as:
void testcase3(int v) {
for (int i=v; i<=v+1; ++i)
f(i);
}

ScalarEvolution in the presence of multiple exits. Previously all
loops exits had to have identical counts for a loop trip count to be
considered computable. This pessimization was implemented by calling
getBackedgeTakenCount(L) rather than getExitCount(L, ExitingBlock)
inside of ScalarEvolution::getSmallConstantTripCount() (see the FIXME
in the comments of that function). The pessimization was added to fix
a corner case involving undefined behavior (pr/16130). This patch more
precisely handles the undefined behavior case allowing the pessimization
to be removed.
ControlsExit replaces IsSubExpr to more precisely track the case where
undefined behavior is expected to occur. Because undefined behavior is
tracked more precisely we can remove MustExit from ExitLimit. MustExit
was used to track the case where the limit was computed potentially
assuming undefined behavior even if undefined behavior didn't necessarily
occur.
llvm-svn: 219517
`LoopUnrollPass` says that it preserves `LoopInfo` -- make it so. In
particular, tell `LoopInfo` about copies of inner loops when unrolling
the outer loop.
Conservatively, also tell `ScalarEvolution` to forget about the original
versions of these loops, since their inputs may have changed.
Fixes PR20987.
llvm-svn: 219241
Runtime unrolling will create a prologue to execute the extra
iterations which is can't divided by the unroll factor. It
generates an if-then-else sequence to jump into a factor -1
times unrolled loop body, like
extraiters = tripcount % loopfactor
if (extraiters == 0) jump Loop:
if (extraiters == loopfactor) jump L1
if (extraiters == loopfactor-1) jump L2
...
L1: LoopBody;
L2: LoopBody;
...
if tripcount < loopfactor jump End
Loop:
...
End:
It means if the unroll factor is 4, the loop body will be 7
times unrolled, 3 are in loop prologue, and 4 are in the loop.
This commit is to use a loop to execute the extra iterations
in prologue, like
extraiters = tripcount % loopfactor
if (extraiters == 0) jump Loop:
else jump Prol
Prol: LoopBody;
extraiters -= 1 // Omitted if unroll factor is 2.
if (extraiters != 0) jump Prol: // Omitted if unroll factor is 2.
if (tripcount < loopfactor) jump End
Loop:
...
End:
Then when unroll factor is 4, the loop body will be copied by
only 5 times, 1 in the prologue loop, 4 in the original loop.
And if the unroll factor is 2, new loop won't be created, just
as the original solution.

The annotation instructions are dropped during codegen and have no
impact on size. In some cases, the annotations were preventing the
unroller from unrolling a loop because the annotation calls were
pushing the cost over the unrolling threshold.

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).

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.

These patches rename the loop unrolling and loop vectorizer metadata

During loop-unroll, loop exits from the current loop may end up in in different
outer loop. This requires to re-form LCSSA recursively for one level down from
the outer most loop where loop exits are landed during unroll. This fixes PR18861.

The old method used by X86TTI to determine partial-unrolling thresholds was
messy (because it worked by testing target features), and also would not
correctly identify the target CPU if certain target features were disabled.
After some discussions on IRC with Chandler et al., it was decided that the
processor scheduling models were the right containers for this information
(because it is often tied to special uop dispatch-buffer sizes).
This does represent a small functionality change:
- For generic x86-64 (which uses the SB model and, thus, will get some
unrolling).
- For AMD cores (because they still currently use the SB scheduling model)
- For Haswell (based on benchmarking by Louis Gerbarg, it was decided to bump
the default threshold to 50; we're working on a test case for this).
Otherwise, nothing has changed for any other targets. The logic, however, has
been moved into BasicTTI, so other targets may now also opt-in to this
functionality simply by setting LoopMicroOpBufferSize in their processor
model definitions.
llvm-svn: 208289
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.
llvm-svn: 207940
This patch changes the vectorization remarks to also inform when
vectorization is possible but not beneficial.
Added tests to exercise some loop remarks.
llvm-svn: 207574
This provides an initial implementation of getUnrollingPreferences for x86.
getUnrollingPreferences is used by the generic (concatenation) unroller, which
is distinct from the unrolling done by the loop vectorizer. Many modern x86
cores have some kind of uop cache and loop-stream detector (LSD) used to
efficiently dispatch small loops, and taking full advantage of this requires
unrolling small loops (small here means 10s of uops).
These caches also have limits on the number of taken branches in the loop, and
so we also cap the loop unrolling factor based on the maximum "depth" of the
loop. This is currently calculated with a partial DFS traversal (partial
because it will stop early if the path length grows too much). This is still an
approximation, and one that is both conservative (because it does not account
for branches eliminated via block placement) and optimistic (because it is only
recording the maximum depth over minimum paths). Nevertheless, because the
loops that fit in these uop caches are so small, it is not clear how much the
details matter.
The original set of patches posted for review produced the following test-suite
performance results (from the TSVC benchmark) at that time:
ControlLoops-dbl - 13% speedup
ControlLoops-flt - 15% speedup
Reductions-dbl - 7.5% speedup
llvm-svn: 205348
The PowerPC A2 core greatly benefits from aggressive concatenation unrolling;
use the new getUnrollingPreferences to enable this by default when targeting
the PPC A2 core.

- Instead of setting the suffixes in a bunch of places, just set one master
list in the top-level config. We now only modify the suffix list in a few
suites that have one particular unique suffix (.ml, .mc, .yaml, .td, .py).
- Aside from removing the need for a bunch of lit.local.cfg files, this enables
4 tests that were inadvertently being skipped (one in
Transforms/BranchFolding, a .s file each in DebugInfo/AArch64 and
CodeGen/PowerPC, and one in CodeGen/SI which is now failing and has been
XFAILED).

Statistics are still available in Release+Asserts (any +Asserts builds),
and stats can also be turned on with LLVM_ENABLE_STATS.
Move some of the FastISel stats that were moved under DEBUG()

Many tests depend on grepping "-stats" output. Move those into
a orig_dir/Stats/. so that they can be marked as unsupported
