When eliminating or merging almost empty basic blocks, the existence of non-trivial PHI nodes
is currently used to recognize potential loops of which the block is the header and keep the block.
However, the current algorithm fails if the loops' exit condition is evaluated only with volatile
values hence no PHI nodes in the header. Especially when such a loop is an outer loop of a nested
loop, the loop is collapsed into a single loop which prevent later optimizations from being
applied (e.g., transforming nested loops into simplified forms and loop vectorization).
The patch augments the existing PHI node-based check by adding a pre-test if the BB actually
belongs to a set of loop headers and not eliminating it if yes.

This is similar to D18133 where we allowed profile weights on select instructions.
This extends that change to also allow the 'unpredictable' attribute of branches to apply to selects.

As noted in:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=26636
This doesn't accomplish anything on its own. It's the first step towards preserving
and using branch weights with selects.
The next step would be to make sure we're propagating the info in all of the other
places where we create selects (SimplifyCFG, InstCombine, etc). I don't think there's
an easy fix to make this happen; we have to look at each transform individually to
determine how to correctly propagate the weights.
Along with that step, we need to then use the weights when making subsequent transform
decisions such as discussed in http://reviews.llvm.org/D16836.
The inliner test is independent but closely related. It verifies that metadata is
preserved when both branches and selects are cloned.

The cleanupret instruction has an invariant that it's 'from' operand be
a cleanuppad. This invariant was violated when we removed a dead block
which removed a cleanuppad leaving behind a cleanupret with an undef
'from' operand.
This was solved in r261731 by staving off the removal of the dead block
to a later pass.
However, it occured to me that we do not need to do this.
Instead, we can simply avoid processing the cleanupret if it has an
undef 'from' operand because we know that it will be removed soon.
llvm-svn: 261754
DeleteDeadBlock was called indiscriminately, leading to cleanuprets with
undef cleanuppad references.
Instead, try to drain the BB of most of it's instructions if it is
unreachable. We can then remove the BB if it solely consists of a
terminator (and maybe some phis).

I missed == and != when I removed implicit conversions between iterators
and pointers in r252380 since they were defined outside ilist_iterator.
Since they depend on getNodePtrUnchecked(), they indirectly rely on UB.
This commit removes all uses of these operators. (I'll delete the
operators themselves in a separate commit so that it can be easily
reverted if necessary.)
There should be NFC here.

Cleanuppads may be merged together if one is the only predecessor of the
other in which case a simple transform can be performed: replace the

D16251)
Summary:
This is a simpler fix to the problem than the dominator approach in
http://reviews.llvm.org/D16251. It adds only values into the gather() while loop
that have been seen before.
The actual endless loop is in the constant compare gather() routine in
Utils/SimplifyCFG.cpp. The same value ret.0.off0.i is pushed back into the
queue:
%.ret.0.off0.i = or i1 %.ret.0.off0.i, %cmp10.i
Here is what happens at the IR level:
for.cond.i: ; preds = %if.end6.i,
%if.end.i54
%ix.0.i = phi i32 [ 0, %if.end.i54 ], [ %inc.i55, %if.end6.i ]
%ret.0.off0.i = phi i1 [false, %if.end.i54], [%.ret.0.off0.i, %if.end6.i] <<<
%cmp2.i = icmp ult i32 %ix.0.i, %11
br i1 %cmp2.i, label %for.body.i, label %LBJ_TmpSimpleNeedExt.exit
if.end6.i: ; preds = %for.body.i
%cmp10.i = icmp ugt i32 %conv.i, %add9.i
%.ret.0.off0.i = or i1 %ret.0.off0.i, %cmp10.i <<<
When if.end.i54 gets eliminated which removes the definition of ret.0.off0.i.
The result is the expression %.ret.0.off0.i = or i1 %.ret.0.off0.i, %cmp10.i
(Note the first ‘or’ operand is now %.ret.0.off0.i, and *NOT* %ret.0.off0.i).
And
now there is use of .ret.0.off0.i before a definition which triggers the
“endless” loop in gather():
while(!DFT.empty()) {
V = DFT.pop_back_val(); // V is .ret.0.off0.i
if (Instruction *I = dyn_cast<Instruction>(V)) {
// If it is a || (or && depending on isEQ), process the operands.
if (I->getOpcode() == (isEQ ? Instruction::Or : Instruction::And)) {
DFT.push_back(I->getOperand(1)); // This is now .ret.0.off0.i also
DFT.push_back(I->getOperand(0));
continue; // “endless loop” for .ret.0.off0.i
}

This is a fix for:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=26308
With the switch to using the TTI cost model in:
http://reviews.llvm.org/rL228826
...it became possible to hit a zero-cost cycle of instructions (gep -> phi -> gep...),
so we need a cap for the recursion in DominatesMergePoint().
A recursion depth parameter was already added for a different reason in:
http://reviews.llvm.org/rL255660
...so we can just set a limit for it.
I pulled "10" out of the air and made it an independent parameter that we can play with.
It might be higher than it needs to be given the currently low default value of
PHINodeFoldingThreshold (2). That's the starting cost value that we enter the recursion
with, and most instructions have cost set to TCC_Basic (1), so I don't think we're going
to speculate more than 2 instructions with the current parameters.
As noted in the review and the TODO comment, we can do better than just limiting recursion
depth.

SimplifyCFG tries to turn complex branch conditions into a switch.
Some of it's logic attempts to reason about bitwise arithmetic produced
by InstCombine. InstCombine can turn things like (X == 2) || (X == 3)
into (X & 1) == 2 and so SimplifyCFG tries to detect when this occurs so
that it can produce a switch instruction.
However, the legality checking was not sufficient to determine whether
or not this had occured. Correctly check this case by requiring that
the right-hand side of the comparison be a power of two.
This fixes PR26323.
llvm-svn: 258904
Summary:
The previous form, taking opcode and type, is moved to an internal
helper and the new form, taking an instruction, is a wrapper around this
helper.
Although this is a slight cleanup on its own, the main motivation is to
refactor the constant folding API to ease migration to opaque pointers.
This will be follow-up work.

In conditional store merging, we were creating PHIs when we didn't
need to. If the value to be predicated isn't defined in the block
we're predicating, then it doesn't need a PHI at all (because we only
deal with triangles and diamonds, any value not in the predicated BB
must dominate the predicated BB).
This fixes a large code size increase in some benchmarks in a popular embedded benchmark suite.

This is the last general step to allow more IR-level speculation with a safety harness in place in CodeGenPrepare.
The intent is to restore the behavior enabled by:
http://reviews.llvm.org/rL228826
but prevent bad performance such as:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=24818
Earlier patches in this sequence:
D12882 (disable SimplifyCFG speculation for expensive instructions)
D13297 (have CGP despeculate expensive ops)
D14630 (have CGP despeculate special versions of cttz/ctlz)
As shown in the test cases, we only have two instructions currently affected: ctz for some x86 and fdiv generally.
Allowing exactly one expensive instruction is a bit of a hack, but it lines up with what is currently implemented
in CGP. If we make the despeculation more general in CGP, we can make the speculation here more liberal.
A follow-up patch will adjust the cost for sqrt and possibly other typically expensive math intrinsics (currently
everything is cheap by default). GPU targets would likely want to override those expensive default costs (just as
they probably should already override the cost of div/rem) because just about any math is cheaper than control-flow
on those targets.

While we have successfully implemented a funclet-oriented EH scheme on
top of LLVM IR, our scheme has some notable deficiencies:
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are necessary in the current design
but they are difficult to explain to others, even to seasoned LLVM
experts.
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are optimization barriers. They cannot
be split and force all potentially throwing call-sites to be invokes.
This has a noticable effect on the quality of our code generation.
- catchpad, while similar in some aspects to invoke, is fairly awkward.
It is unsplittable, starts a funclet, and has control flow to other
funclets.
- The nesting relationship between funclets is currently a property of
control flow edges. Because of this, we are forced to carefully
analyze the flow graph to see if there might potentially exist illegal
nesting among funclets. While we have logic to clone funclets when
they are illegally nested, it would be nicer if we had a
representation which forbade them upfront.
Let's clean this up a bit by doing the following:
- Instead, make catchpad more like cleanuppad and landingpad: no control
flow, just a bunch of simple operands; catchpad would be splittable.
- Introduce catchswitch, a control flow instruction designed to model
the constraints of funclet oriented EH.
- Make funclet scoping explicit by having funclet instructions consume
the token produced by the funclet which contains them.
- Remove catchendpad and cleanupendpad. Their presence can be inferred
implicitly using coloring information.
N.B. The state numbering code for the CLR has been updated but the
veracity of it's output cannot be spoken for. An expert should take a
look to make sure the results are reasonable.

We can often end up with conditional stores that cannot be speculated. They can come from fairly simple, idiomatic code:
if (c & flag1)
*a = x;
if (c & flag2)
*a = y;
...
There is no dominating or post-dominating store to a, so it is not legal to move the store unconditionally to the end of the sequence and cache the intermediate result in a register, as we would like to.
It is, however, legal to merge the stores together and do the store once:
tmp = undef;
if (c & flag1)
tmp = x;
if (c & flag2)
tmp = y;
if (c & flag1 || c & flag2)
*a = tmp;
The real power in this optimization is that it allows arbitrary length ladders such as these to be completely and trivially if-converted. The typical code I'd expect this to trigger on often uses binary-AND with constants as the condition (as in the above example), which means the ending condition can simply be truncated into a single binary-AND too: 'if (c & (flag1|flag2))'. As in the general case there are bitwise operators here, the ladder can often be optimized further too.
This optimization involves potentially increasing register pressure. Even in the simplest case, the lifetime of the first predicate is extended. This can be elided in some cases such as using binary-AND on constants, but not in the general case. Threading 'tmp' through all branches can also increase register pressure.
The optimization as in this patch is enabled by default but kept in a very conservative mode. It will only optimize if it thinks the resultant code should be if-convertable, and additionally if it can thread 'tmp' through at least one existing PHI, so it will only ever in the worst case create one more PHI and extend the lifetime of a predicate.
This doesn't trigger much in LNT, unfortunately, but it does trigger in a big way in a third party test suite.

Summary: Currently SimplifyResume can convert an invoke instruction to a call instruction if its landing pad is trivial. In practice we could have several invoke instructions with trivial landing pads and share a common rethrow block, and in the common rethrow block, all the landing pads join to a phi node. The patch extends SimplifyResume to check the phi of landing pad and their incoming blocks. If any of them is trivial, remove it from the phi node and convert the invoke instruction to a call instruction.

Turns out this approach is buggy. In discussion about follow on work, Sanjoy pointed out that we could be subject to circular logic problems.
Consider:
if (i u< L) leave()
if ((i + 1) u< L) leave()
print(a[i] + a[i+1])
If we know that L is less than UINT_MAX, we could possible prove (in a control dependent way) that i + 1 does not overflow. This gives us:
if (i u< L) leave()
if ((i +nuw 1) u< L) leave()
print(a[i] + a[i+1])
If we now do the transform this patch proposed, we end up with:
if ((i +nuw 1) u< L) leave_appropriately()
print(a[i] + a[i+1])
That would be a miscompile when i==-1. The problem here is that the control dependent nuw bits got used to prove something about the first condition. That's obviously invalid.
This won't happen today, but since I plan to enhance LVI/CVP with exactly that transform at some point in the not too distant future...
