Certain affine memory accesses which we model today might contain products of
parameters which we might combined into a new parameter to be able to create an
affine expression that represents these memory accesses. Especially in the
context of OpenCL, this approach looses information as memory accesses such as
A[get_global_id(0) * N + get_global_id(1)] are assumed to be linear. We
correctly recover their multi-dimensional structure by assuming that parameters
that are the result of a function call at IR level likely are not parameters,
but indeed induction variables. The resulting access is now
A[get_global_id(0)][get_global_id(1)] for an array A[][N].

Summary:
My goal is to make the newly added `AllowWholeFunctions` options more usable/powerful.
The changes to ScopBuilder.cpp are exclusively checks to prevent `Region.getExit()` from being dereferenced, since Top Level Regions (TLRs) don't have an exit block.
In ScopDetection's `isValidCFG`, I removed a check that disallowed ReturnInstructions to have return values. This might of course have been intentional, so I would welcome your feedback on this and maybe a small explanation why return values are forbidden. Maybe it can be done but needs more changes elsewhere?
The remaining changes in ScopDetection are simply to consider the AllowWholeFunctions option in more places, i.e. allow TLRs when it is set and once again avoid derefererncing `getExit()` if it doesn't exist.
Finally, in ScopHelper.cpp I extended `polly::isErrorBlock` to handle regions without exit blocks as well: The original check was if a given BasicBlock dominates all predecessors of the exit block. Therefore I do the same for TLRs by regarding all BasicBlocks terminating with a ReturnInst as predecessors of a "virtual" function exit block.

Summary: This is a proof of concept of how to port polly-passes to the new PassManager architecture. This approach works ootb for Function-Passes, but might not be directly applicable to Scop/Region-Passes. While we could just run the Analyses/Transforms over functions instead, we'd surrender the nice pipelining behaviour we have now.

For certain test cases we spent over 50% of the scop detection time in
checking if a load is likely invariant. We can avoid most of these checks by
testing early on if a load is expected to be invariant. Doing this reduces
scop-detection time on a large benchmark from 52 seconds to just 25 seconds.
No functional change is expected.

In case LLVM pointers are annotated with !dereferencable attributes/metadata
or LLVM can look at the allocation from which a pointer is derived, we can know
that dereferencing pointers is safe and can be done unconditionally. We use this
information to proof certain pointers as save to hoist and then hoist them
unconditionally.

Simplify ScopDetection::isInvariant(). Essentially deny everything that
is defined within the SCoP and is not load-hoisted.
The previous understanding of "invariant" has a few holes:
- Expressions without side-effects with only invariant arguments, but
are defined withing the SCoP's region with the exception of selects
and PHIs. These should be part of the index expression derived by
ScalarEvolution and not of the base pointer.
- Function calls with that are !mayHaveSideEffects() (typically
functions with "readnone nounwind" attributes). An example is given
below.
@C = external global i32
declare float* @getNextBasePtr(float*) readnone nounwind
...
%ptr = call float* @getNextBasePtr(float* %A, float %B)
The call might return:
* %A, so %ptr aliases with it in the SCoP
* %B, so %ptr aliases with it in the SCoP
* @C, so %ptr aliases with it in the SCoP
* a new pointer everytime it is called, such as malloc()
* a pointer into the allocated block of one of the aforementioned
* any of the above, at random at each call
Hence and contrast to a comment in the base_pointer.ll regression
test, %ptr is not necessarily the same all the time. It might also
alias with anything and no AliasAnalysis can tell otherwise if the
definition is external. It is hence not suitable in the role of a
base pointer.
The practical problem with base pointers defined in SCoP statements is
that it is not available globally in the SCoP. The statement instance
must be executed first before the base pointer can be used. This is no
problem if the base pointer is transferred as a scalar value between
statements. Uses of MemoryAccess::setNewAccessRelation may add a use of
the base pointer anywhere in the array. setNewAccessRelation is used by
JSONImporter, DeLICM and D28518. Indeed, BlockGenerator currently
assumes that base pointers are available globally and generates invalid
code for new access relation (referring to the base pointer of the
original code) if not, even if the base pointer would be available in
the statement.
This could be fixed with some added complexity and restrictions. The
ExprBuilder must lookup the local BBMap and code that call
setNewAccessRelation must check whether the base pointer is available
first.
The code would still be incorrect in the presence of aliasing. There
is the switch -polly-ignore-aliasing to explicitly allow this, but
it is hardly a justification for the additional complexity. It would
still be mostly useless because in most cases either getNextBasePtr()
has external linkage in which case the readnone nounwind attributes
cannot be derived in the translation unit itself, or is defined in the
same translation unit and gets inlined.

Only when load-hoisted we can be sure the base pointer is invariant
during the SCoP's execution. Most of the time it would be added to
the required hoists for the alias checks anyway, except with
-polly-ignore-aliasing, -polly-use-runtime-alias-checks=0 or if
AliasAnalysis is already sure it doesn't alias with anything
(for instance if there is no other pointer to alias with).
Two more parts in Polly assume that this load-hoisting took place:
- setNewAccessRelation() which contains an assert which tests this.
- BlockGenerator which would use to the base ptr from the original
code if not load-hoisted (if the access expression is regenerated)

Scops that exit with an unreachable are today still permitted, but make little
sense to optimize. We therefore can already skip them during scop detection.
This speeds up scop detection in certain cases and also ensures that bugpoint
does not introduce unreachables when reducing test cases.
In practice this change should have little impact, as the performance of
unreachable code is unlikely to matter.
This commit is part of a series that makes Polly more robust in the presence
of unreachables.
llvm-svn: 297151
These loads cannot be savely hoisted as the condition guarding the
non-affine region cannot be duplicated to also protect the hoisted load
later on. Today they are dropped in ScopInfo. By checking for this early, we
do not even try to model them and possibly can still optimize smaller regions
not containing this specific required-invariant load.
llvm-svn: 296744
Marking a pass as preserved is necessary if any Polly pass uses it, even
if it is not preserved within the generated code. Not marking it would
cause the the Polly pass chain to be interrupted. It is not used by any
Polly pass anymore, hence we can remove all references to it.

Unsigned operations are often useful to support but the heuristics are
not yet tuned. This options allows to disable them if necessary.
llvm-svn: 288521
Relational comparisons should not involve multiple potentially
aliasing pointers. Similarly this should hold for switch conditions
and the two conditions involved in equality comparisons (separately!).
This is a heuristic based on the C semantics that does only allow such
operations when the base pointers do point into the same object.
Since this makes aliasing likely we will bail out early instead of
producing a probably failing runtime check.

Commit r286294 introduced support for inaccessiblememonly and
inaccessiblemem_or_argmemonly attributes to BasicAA, which we need to

which are annotated with these attributes, which is conservatively correct.
In the future we may consider to model and support such function calls
in Polly.

The validity of a branch condition must be verified at the location of the
branch (the branch instruction), not the location of the icmp that is
used in the branch instruction. When verifying at the wrong location, we
may accept an icmp that is defined within a loop which itself dominates, but
does not contain the branch instruction. Such loops cannot be modeled as
we only introduce domain dimensions for surrounding loops. To address this
problem we change the scop detection to evaluate and verify SCEV expressions at
the right location.
This issue has been around since at least r179148 "scop detection: properly
instantiate SCEVs to the place where they are used", where we explicitly
set the scope to the wrong location. Before this commit the scope
was not explicitly set, which probably also resulted in the scope around the
ICmp to be choosen.

In r248701 "Allow switch instructions in SCoPs" support for switch statements
has been introduced, but support for switch statements in loop latches was
incomplete. This change completely disables switch statements in loop latches.
The original commit changed addLoopBoundsToHeaderDomain to support non-branch
terminator instructions, but this change was incorrect: it added a check for
BI != null to the if-branch of a condition, but BI was used in the else branch
es well. As a result, when a non-branch terminator instruction is encounted a
nullptr dereference is triggered. Due to missing test coverage, this bug was
overlooked.
r249273 "[FIX] Approximate non-affine loops correctly" added code to disallow
switch statements for non-affine loops, if they appear in either a loop latch
or a loop exit. We adapt this code to now prohibit switch statements in
loop latches even if the control condition is affine.
We could possibly add support for switch statements in loop latches, but such
support should be evaluated and tested separately.
This fixes llvm.org/PR30952

Summary:
Both `canUseISLTripCount()` and `addOverApproximatedRegion()` contained checks
to reject endless loops which are now removed and replaced by a single check
in `isValidLoop()`.
For reporting such loops the `ReportLoopOverlapWithNonAffineSubRegion` is
renamed to `ReportLoopHasNoExit`. The test case
`ReportLoopOverlapWithNonAffineSubRegion.ll` is adapted and renamed as well.
The schedule generation in `buildSchedule()` is based on the following
assumption:
Given some block B that is contained in a loop L and a SESE region R,
we assume that L is contained in R or the other way around.
However, this assumption is broken in the presence of endless loops that are
nested inside other loops. Therefore, in order to prevent erroneous behavior
in `buildSchedule()`, r265280 introduced a corresponding check in
`canUseISLTripCount()` to reject endless loops. Unfortunately, it was possible
to bypass this check with -polly-allow-nonaffine-loops which was fixed by adding
another check to reject endless loops in `allowOverApproximatedRegion()` in
r273905. Hence there existed two separate locations that handled this case.

The function expandRegion() frees Region* objects again when it determines that
these are not valid SCoPs. However, the DetectionContext added to the
DetectionContextMap still holds a reference. The validity is checked using the
ValidRegions lookup table. When a new Region is added to that list, it might
share the same address, such that the DetectionContext contains two
Region* associations that are in ValidRegions, but that are unrelated and of
which one has already been free.
Also remove the DetectionContext when not a valid expansion.
