We weren't using this before, so none of the MachineFunction CFG edges had the
branch probability information added. As a result, block placement later in the
pipeline was flying blind.
This is enabled only with optimizations enabled like SelectionDAG.

So let's just reland this.
Original commit message:
I've been looking at missed vectorizations in one codebase.
One particular thing that stands out is that some of the loops
reach vectorizer in a rather mangled form, with weird PHI's,
and some of the loops aren't even in a rotated form.
After taking a more detailed look, that happened because
the loop's headers were too big by then. It is evident that
SimplifyCFG's common code hoisting transform is at fault there,
because the pattern it handles is precisely the unrotated
loop basic block structure.
Surprizingly, `SimplifyCFGOpt::HoistThenElseCodeToIf()` is enabled
by default, and is always run, unlike it's friend, common code sinking
transform, `SinkCommonCodeFromPredecessors()`, which is not enabled
by default and is only run once very late in the pipeline.
I'm proposing to harmonize this, and disable common code hoisting
until //late// in pipeline. Definition of //late// may vary,
here currently i've picked the same one as for code sinking,
but i suppose we could enable it as soon as right after
loop rotation happens.
Experimentation shows that this does indeed unsurprizingly help,
more loops got rotated, although other issues remain elsewhere.
Now, this undoubtedly seriously shakes phase ordering.
This will undoubtedly be a mixed bag in terms of both compile- and
run- time performance, codesize. Since we no longer aggressively
hoist+deduplicate common code, we don't pay the price of said hoisting
(which wasn't big). That may allow more loops to be rotated,
so we pay that price. That, in turn, that may enable all the transforms
that require canonical (rotated) loop form, including but not limited to
vectorization, so we pay that too. And in general, no deduplication means
more [duplicate] instructions going through the optimizations. But there's still
late hoisting, some of them will be caught late.
As per benchmarks i've run {F12360204}, this is mostly within the noise,
there are some small improvements, some small regressions.
One big regression i saw i fixed in rG8d487668d09fb0e4e54f36207f07c1480ffabbfd, but i'm sure
this will expose many more pre-existing missed optimizations, as usual :S

This reverts commit 503deec218.
There's a special case in hasAttribute for None when pImpl is null. If pImpl is not null we dispatch to pImpl->hasAttribute which will always return false for Attribute::None.
So if we just want to check for None its sufficient to just check that pImpl is null. Which can even be done inline.
This patch adds a helper for that case which I hope will speed up our getSubtargetImpl implementations.

This reverts commit 1067d3e176,
which reverted commit b2018198c3,
because it introduced a Dependency Cycle between Transforms/Scalar and
Transforms/Utils.
So let's just move SimplifyCFGOptions.h into Utils/, thus avoiding
the cycle.
This reverts commit b2018198c3.
This commit introduced a Dependency Cycle between Transforms/Scalar and
Transforms/Utils. Transforms/Scalar already depends on Transforms/Utils,
so if SimplifyCFGOptions.h is moved to Scalar, and Utils/Local.h still
depends on it, we have a cycle.
Taking so many parameters is simply unmaintainable.
We don't want to include the entire llvm/Transforms/Utils/Local.h into
llvm/Transforms/Scalar.h so i've split SimplifyCFGOptions into
it's own header.
To make sure that no barrier gets placed on the architectural execution
path, each
BLR x<N>
instruction gets transformed to a
BL __llvm_slsblr_thunk_x<N>
instruction, with __llvm_slsblr_thunk_x<N> a thunk that contains
__llvm_slsblr_thunk_x<N>:
BR x<N>
<speculation barrier>
Therefore, the BLR instruction gets split into 2; one BL and one BR.
This transformation results in not inserting a speculation barrier on
the architectural execution path.
The mitigation is off by default and can be enabled by the
harden-sls-blr subtarget feature.
As a linker is allowed to clobber X16 and X17 on function calls, the
above code transformation would not be correct in case a linker does so
when N=16 or N=17. Therefore, when the mitigation is enabled, generation
of BLR x16 or BLR x17 is avoided.
As BLRA* indirect calls are not produced by LLVM currently, this does
not aim to implement support for those.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D81402
Some processors may speculatively execute the instructions immediately
following RET (returns) and BR (indirect jumps), even though
control flow should change unconditionally at these instructions.
To avoid a potential miss-speculatively executed gadget after these
instructions leaking secrets through side channels, this pass places a
speculation barrier immediately after every RET and BR instruction.
Since these barriers are never on the correct, architectural execution
path, performance overhead of this is expected to be low.
On targets that implement that Armv8.0-SB Speculation Barrier extension,
a single SB instruction is emitted that acts as a speculation barrier.
On other targets, a DSB SYS followed by a ISB is emitted to act as a
speculation barrier.
These speculation barriers are implemented as pseudo instructions to
avoid later passes to analyze them and potentially remove them.
Even though currently LLVM does not produce BRAA/BRAB/BRAAZ/BRABZ
instructions, these are also mitigated by the pass and tested through a
MIR test.
The mitigation is off by default and can be enabled by the
harden-sls-retbr subtarget feature.

(This patch is by Jessica, I'm just committing it on her behalf because I need
a post-legalizer combiner for something else).
This supersedes D77250, which did equivalent work in the selector. This can be
done pre-legalization or post-legalization. Post-legalization is more likely to
hit, since G_IMPLICIT_DEFs tend to appear during legalization. There's no reason
to not do it pre-legalization though-- if it can be caught earlier, great.
(I also think that it might be worth reimplementing D78769 using a
target-specific post-legalization combine too after thinking about it for a

Summary:
Creates the SVEIntrinsicOpts pass. In this patch, the pass tries
to remove unnecessary reinterpret intrinsics which convert to
and from svbool_t (llvm.aarch64.sve.convert.[to|from].svbool)
For example, the reinterprets below are redundant:
%1 = call <vscale x 16 x i1> @llvm.aarch64.sve.convert.to.svbool.nxv4i1(<vscale x 4 x i1> %a)
%2 = call <vscale x 4 x i1> @llvm.aarch64.sve.convert.from.svbool.nxv4i1(<vscale x 16 x i1> %1)
The pass also looks for ptest intrinsics and phi instructions where
the operands are being needlessly converted to and from svbool_t.

Summary:
Inserting BTI instructions can push branch destinations out of range.
The branch relaxation pass itself cannot insert indirect branches since `TargetInstrInfo::insertIndirecrtBranch` is not implemented for AArch64 (guess +/-128 MB direct branch range is more than enough in practice).
Testing this is a bit tricky.
The original test case we have is 155kloc/6.1M. I've generated a test case using this program:
```
int main() {
std::cout << R"src(int test();
void g0(), g1(), g2(), g3(), g4(), e();
void f(int v) {
if ((test() & 2) == 0) {
switch (v) {
case 0:
g0();
case 1:
g1();
case 2:
g2();
case 3:
g3();
}
)src";
const int N = 8176;
for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i)
std::cout << " void h" << i << "();\n";
for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i)
std::cout << " h" << i << "();\n";
std::cout << R"src(
} else {
e();
}
}

}

Summary:
A new function pass (Transforms/CFGuard/CFGuard.cpp) inserts CFGuard checks on
indirect function calls, using either the check mechanism (X86, ARM, AArch64) or
or the dispatch mechanism (X86-64). The check mechanism requires a new calling
convention for the supported targets. The dispatch mechanism adds the target as
an operand bundle, which is processed by SelectionDAG. Another pass
(CodeGen/CFGuardLongjmp.cpp) identifies and emits valid longjmp targets, as
required by /guard:cf. This feature is enabled using the `cfguard` CC1 option.

llvm-svn: 371722
Loosely based on DAGCombiner version, but this part is slightly simpler in
GlobalIsel because all address calculation is performed by G_GEP. That makes
the inc/dec distinction moot so there's just pre/post to think about.
No targets can handle it yet so testing is via a special flag that overrides

Despite the fact that the localizer's original motivation was to fix horrendous
constant spilling at -O0, shortening live ranges still has net benefits even
with optimizations enabled.
On an -Os build of CTMark, doing this improves code size by 0.5% geomean.
There are a few regressions, bullet increasing in size by 0.5%. One example from
bullet where code size increased slightly was due to GlobalISel actually now
generating the same code as SelectionDAG. So we actually have an opportunity
in future to implement better heuristics for localization and therefore be
*better* than SDAG in some cases. In relation to other optimizations though that
one is relatively minor.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D67303
llvm-svn: 371266
Summary:
MTE allows memory access to bypass tag check iff the address argument
is [SP, #imm]. This change takes advantage of this to demote uses of
tagged addresses to regular FrameIndex operands, reducing register
pressure in large functions.
MO_TAGGED target flag is used to signal that the FrameIndex operand
refers to memory that might be tagged, and needs to be handled with
care. Such operand must be lowered to [SP, #imm] directly, without a
scratch register.
The transformation pass attempts to predict when the offset will be
out of range and disable the optimization.
AArch64RegisterInfo::eliminateFrameIndex has an escape hatch in case
this prediction has been wrong, but it is quite inefficient and should
be avoided.

We collect memory store and memset instructions following an alloca or a
lifetime.start call, and replace them with the corresponding MTE
intrinsics. Since the intrinsics work on 16-byte aligned chunks, the
stored values are combined as necessary.

LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON and LLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB=ON some unittests that
access symbols that are no longer public will need to be statically linked.
Before and after public symbol counts (using gcc 8.2.1, ld.bfd 2.31.1):
nm before/libLLVM-9svn.so | grep ' [A-Zuvw] ' | wc -l
36221
nm after/libLLVM-9svn.so | grep ' [A-Zuvw] ' | wc -l

Move the declarations of getThe<Name>Target() functions into a new header in
TargetInfo and make users of these functions include this new header.
This fixes a layering problem.
llvm-svn: 360709
Because CodeGen can't depend on GlobalISel, we need a way to encapsulate the CSE
configs that can be passed between TargetPassConfig and the targets' custom
pass configs. This CSEConfigBase allows targets to create custom CSE configs
which is then used by the GISel passes for the CSEMIRBuilder.
This support will be used in a follow up commit to allow constant-only CSE for
-O0 compiles in D60580.

Windows ARM64 has PIC relocation model and uses jump table kind
EK_LabelDifference32. This produces jump table entry as
".word LBB123 - LJTI1_2" which represents the distance between the block
and jump table.
A new relocation type (IMAGE_REL_ARM64_REL32) is needed to do the fixup
correctly if they are in different COFF section.
This change saves the jump table to the same COFF section as the
associated code. An ideal fix could be utilizing IMAGE_REL_ARM64_REL32
relocation type.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

The pass implements tracking of control flow miss-speculation into a "taint"
register. That taint register can then be used to mask off registers with
sensitive data when executing under miss-speculation, a.k.a. "transient
execution".
This pass is aimed at mitigating against SpectreV1-style vulnarabilities.
At the moment, it implements the tracking of miss-speculation of control
flow into a taint register, but doesn't implement a mechanism yet to then
use that taint register to mask off vulnerable data in registers (something
for a follow-on improvement). Possible strategies to mask out vulnerable
data that can be implemented on top of this are:
- speculative load hardening to automatically mask of data loaded
in registers.
- using intrinsics to mask of data in registers as indicated by the
programmer (see https://lwn.net/Articles/759423/).
For AArch64, the following implementation choices are made.
Some of these are different than the implementation choices made in
the similar pass implemented in X86SpeculativeLoadHardening.cpp, as
the instruction set characteristics result in different trade-offs.
- The speculation hardening is done after register allocation. With a
relative abundance of registers, one register is reserved (X16) to be
the taint register. X16 is expected to not clash with other register
reservation mechanisms with very high probability because:
. The AArch64 ABI doesn't guarantee X16 to be retained across any call.
. The only way to request X16 to be used as a programmer is through
inline assembly. In the rare case a function explicitly demands to
use X16/W16, this pass falls back to hardening against speculation
by inserting a DSB SYS/ISB barrier pair which will prevent control
flow speculation.
- It is easy to insert mask operations at this late stage as we have
mask operations available that don't set flags.
- The taint variable contains all-ones when no miss-speculation is detected,
and contains all-zeros when miss-speculation is detected. Therefore, when
masking, an AND instruction (which only changes the register to be masked,
no other side effects) can easily be inserted anywhere that's needed.
- The tracking of miss-speculation is done by using a data-flow conditional
select instruction (CSEL) to evaluate the flags that were also used to
make conditional branch direction decisions. Speculation of the CSEL
instruction can be limited with a CSDB instruction - so the combination of
CSEL + a later CSDB gives the guarantee that the flags as used in the CSEL
aren't speculated. When conditional branch direction gets miss-speculated,
the semantics of the inserted CSEL instruction is such that the taint
register will contain all zero bits.
One key requirement for this to work is that the conditional branch is
followed by an execution of the CSEL instruction, where the CSEL
instruction needs to use the same flags status as the conditional branch.
This means that the conditional branches must not be implemented as one
of the AArch64 conditional branches that do not use the flags as input
(CB(N)Z and TB(N)Z). This is implemented by ensuring in the instruction
selectors to not produce these instructions when speculation hardening
is enabled. This pass will assert if it does encounter such an instruction.
- On function call boundaries, the miss-speculation state is transferred from
the taint register X16 to be encoded in the SP register as value 0.
Future extensions/improvements could be:
- Implement this functionality using full speculation barriers, akin to the
x86-slh-lfence option. This may be more useful for the intrinsics-based
approach than for the SLH approach to masking.
Note that this pass already inserts the full speculation barriers if the
function for some niche reason makes use of X16/W16.
- no indirect branch misprediction gets protected/instrumented; but this
could be done for some indirect branches, such as switch jump tables.
