Translate the selected parallel loop body into a ptx string and run it with the
cuda driver API. We limit this preliminary implementation to target the
following special test cases:
- Support only 2-dimensional parallel loops with or without only one innermost
non-parallel loop.
- Support write memory access to only one array in a SCoP.
The patch was committed with smaller changes to the build system:
There is now a flag to enable gpu code generation explictly. This was required
as we need the llvm.codegen() patch applied on the llvm sources, to compile this
feature correctly. Also, enabling gpu code generation does not require cuda.
This requirement was removed to allow 'make polly-test' runs, even without an
installed cuda runtime.

The Apple linker fails by default, if some function calls can not be resolved at
link time. However, all functions that are part of LLVM itself will not be
linked into Polly, but will be provided by the compiler that Polly is loaded
into. Hence, during linking we need to ignore failures due to unresolved
function calls.

Cast instruction do not have side effects and can consequently be part of a
scop. We special cased them earlier, as they may be problematic within array
subscripts or loop bounds. However, the scalar evolution validator already
checks for them such that there is no need to also check the instructions within
the basic blocks. Checking them is actually overly conservative as the precence
of casts may invalidate a scop, even though scalar evolution is not influenced
by it.

CLooG and the CLooG based code generation does not yet correctly derive the
types of the expressions, but just uses i64 for everything. This is incorrect,
but works normally pretty well. However, the recent change of adding parameter
bounds to the context made CLooG generate expressions that contain a lot of very
large integers that possibly don't fit into an i64. This broke the code
generation for several benchmarks.
To get the CLooG based code generation working again, we just don't take into
account any constraints in the context. This brings us back to the theoretical
incorrect, but in practice generally correct code.
The next step will be the isl based code generation. Here we will derive
automatically correct types.

Grouped unrolling means that we unroll a loop such that the different instances
of a certain statement are scheduled right after each other, but we do
not generate any vector code. The idea here is that we can schedule the
bb vectorizer right afterwards and use it heuristics to decide when
vectorization should be performed.

To avoid overflows we still use a larger type (i64) while calculating the value
of the old ivs. However, we truncate the result to the type of the old iv when

A corresponding test case is added to the polly test suite. Also, a failing test
case is fixed.

When deriving new values for the statements of a SCoP, we assumed that parameter
values are constant within the SCoP and consquently do not need to be rewritten.
For OpenMP code generation this assumption is wrong, as such values are not
available in the OpenMP subfunction and consequently also may need to be
rewritten.

This also adds support for modifiable write accesses (until now only read

The FinalRead statement represented a virtual read that is executed after the
SCoP. It was used when we verified the correctness of a schedule by checking if
it yields the same FLOW dependences as the original code. This is only works, if
we have a final read that reads all memory at the end of the SCoP.
We now switched to just checking if a schedule does not introduce negative
dependences and also consider WAW WAR dependences. This restricts the schedules
a little bit more, but we do not have any optimizer that would calculate a more
complex schedule. Hence, for now final reads are obsolete.
llvm-svn: 152319
We now just check if the new scattering would create non-positive dependences.
This is a lot faster than recalculating dependences (which is especially slow
on tiled code).

This change itself should not change functionality, but it will make it easier

This allows us to enable -enable-iv-rewrite by default and releases LLVM from

When I first tried to commit this patch, the builder pointed after generation
of a loop still into the loop body. This means that code that was supposed to
be generated after the loop was generated right into the loop body. We fixed
this by pointing the builder to the BB after the loop, as soon as code
generation of the loop body itself is finished.
llvm-svn: 150480
Before this change we built the CFG such that it was only valid after code was
fully generated. During code generation itself, it was often incomplete. After
this change always maintain a valid CFG. This will later allow us to use the
SCEVExpander during code generation. This is the first step to get rid of the
independent blocks pass.

Such a dead code elimination can remove redundant stores to arrays. It can also
eliminate calculations where the results are stored to memory but where they are
overwritten before ever being read. It may also fix bugs like:

As we now have a scheduler that works, I do not believe a lot of people need

This has shown better results for 2mm, 3mm and a couple of other benchmarks.
After this we show consistenly better results as PoCC with maxfuse. We need

maximise_band_depth does not seem to have any effect for now, but it may help to

llvm-svn: 149266
This speeds up the scheduler by orders of magnitude and in addition yields often
to a better schedule.
With this we can compile all polybench kernels with less than 5x compile time
overhead. In general the overhead is even less than 2-3x. This is still with
running a lot of redundant passes and no compile time tuning at all. There are
several obvious areas where we can improve here further.
There are also two test cases where we cannot find a schedule any more (cholesky
and another). I will look into them later on.
With this we have a very solid base line from which we can start to optimize
further.
llvm-svn: 149263
In case we can not analyze an access function, we do not discard the SCoP, but

Previously the scheduler was splitting bands at the level at which it detected
that the splitting of the band is necessary. This may introduce an additional
level of bands, that can be avoided by backtracking and splitting on a higher
level. Additional splits reduce the number of loops that can be tiled, such that
avoiding splits and maximizing the band depth seems preferable.
As a first data point we looked at 2mm and 3mm from the polybench test suite.
For both maximizing the tilable bands results in a significant (5-10x)
performance improvement.
This patch enables the isl scheduler option to maximize the band depth.
llvm-svn: 146557
If larger coefficients appear as part of the input dependences, the schedule
calculation can take a very long time. We observed that the main overhead in
this calculation is due to optimizing the constant coefficients. They are
misused to increase locality by merging several unrelated dimensions into a
single dimension. This unwanted optimization increases the complexity of the
generated code and furthermore slows it down.
We use a new isl scheduler option to bound the values in the constant dimension
by a user defined value (20 in our case). If the right value is choosen, costly
overoptimization is prevented.
This solution works, but requires a specific (here almost randomly choosen)
value by which the constants are bound. For the moment, this is our best
solution, but we hope to to find a more generic one later on.
After these patch the extremly long compile time for simple kernels like 2mm or
3mm is reduced to a reasonable amount of time (Not more than a couple of seconds
even in debug mode).
