The way MachinePipeliner uses these target hooks is stateful - we reduce trip
count by one per call to reduceLoopCount. It's a little overfit for hardware
loops, where we don't have to worry about stitching a loop induction variable
across prologs and epilogs (the induction variable is implicit).
This patch introduces a new API:
/// Analyze loop L, which must be a single-basic-block loop, and if the
/// conditions can be understood enough produce a PipelinerLoopInfo object.
virtual std::unique_ptr<PipelinerLoopInfo>
analyzeLoopForPipelining(MachineBasicBlock *LoopBB) const;
The return value is expected to be an implementation of the abstract class:
/// Object returned by analyzeLoopForPipelining. Allows software pipelining
/// implementations to query attributes of the loop being pipelined.
class PipelinerLoopInfo {
public:
virtual ~PipelinerLoopInfo();
/// Return true if the given instruction should not be pipelined and should
/// be ignored. An example could be a loop comparison, or induction variable
/// update with no users being pipelined.
virtual bool shouldIgnoreForPipelining(const MachineInstr *MI) const = 0;
/// Create a condition to determine if the trip count of the loop is greater
/// than TC.
///
/// If the trip count is statically known to be greater than TC, return
/// true. If the trip count is statically known to be not greater than TC,
/// return false. Otherwise return nullopt and fill out Cond with the test
/// condition.
virtual Optional<bool>
createTripCountGreaterCondition(int TC, MachineBasicBlock &MBB,
SmallVectorImpl<MachineOperand> &Cond) = 0;
/// Modify the loop such that the trip count is
/// OriginalTC + TripCountAdjust.
virtual void adjustTripCount(int TripCountAdjust) = 0;
/// Called when the loop's preheader has been modified to NewPreheader.
virtual void setPreheader(MachineBasicBlock *NewPreheader) = 0;
/// Called when the loop is being removed.
virtual void disposed() = 0;
};
The Pipeliner (ModuloSchedule.cpp) can use this object to modify the loop while
allowing the target to hold its own state across all calls. This API, in
particular the disjunction of creating a trip count check condition and
adjusting the loop, improves the code quality in ModuloSchedule.cpp.

Apologies, due to a git SNAFU this fix (dump doesn't exist and silence unused variables) stayed in my index rather than applying to rL370893.

This is the beginnings of a reimplementation of ModuloScheduleExpander. It works
by generating a single-block correct pipelined kernel and then peeling out the
prolog and epilogs.
This patch implements kernel generation as well as a validator that will
confirm the number of phis added is the same as the ModuloScheduleExpander.
Prolog and epilog peeling will come in a different patch.

Emitting a schedule is really hard. There are lots of corner cases to take care of; in fact, of the 60+ SWP-specific testcases in the Hexagon backend most of those are testing codegen rather than the schedule creation itself.
One issue is that to test an emission corner case we must craft an input such that the generated schedule uses that corner case; sometimes this is very hard and convolutes testcases. Other times it is impossible but we want to test it anyway.
This patch adds a simple test pass that will consume a module containing a loop and generate pipelined code from it. We use post-instr-symbols as a way to annotate instructions with the stage and cycle that we want to schedule them at.
We also provide a flag that causes the MachinePipeliner to generate these annotations instead of actually emitting code; this allows us to generate an input testcase with:
llc < %s -stop-after=pipeliner -pipeliner-annotate-for-testing -o test.mir
And run the emission in isolation with:
llc < test.mir -run-pass=modulo-schedule-test

This is the first stage in refactoring the pipeliner and making it more
accessible for backends to override and control. This separates the logic and
state required to *emit* a scheudule from the logic that *computes* and
validates a schedule.
This will enable (a) new schedule emitters and (b) new modulo scheduling
implementations to coexist.
