When passingValueIsAlwaysUndefined scans for an instruction between an
inst with a null or undef argument and its first use, it was checking
for instructions that may have side effects, which is a superset of the
instructions it intended to find (as per the comments, control flow
changing instructions that would prevent reaching the uses). Switch
to using isGuaranteedToTransferExecutionToSuccessor() instead.
Without this change, when enabling -fwhole-program-vtables, which causes
assumes to be inserted by clang, we can get different simplification
decisions. In particular, when building with instrumentation FDO it can
affect the optimizations decisions before FDO matching, leading to some
mismatches.
I had to modify d83507-knowledge-retention-bug.ll since this fix enables
more aggressive optimization of that code such that it no longer tested
the original bug it was meant to test. I removed the undef which still
provokes the original failure (confirmed by temporarily reverting the
fix) and also changed it to just invoke the passes of interest to narrow
the testing.
Similarly I needed to adjust code for UnreachableEliminate.ll to avoid
an undef which was causing the function body to get optimized away with
this fix.

The profitability check is: we don't want to create more than a single PHI
per instruction sunk. We need to create the PHI unless we'll sink
all of it's would-be incoming values.
But there is a caveat there.
This profitability check doesn't converge on the first iteration!
If we first decide that we want to sink 10 instructions,
but then determine that 5'th one is unprofitable to sink,
that may result in us not sinking some instructions that
resulted in determining that some other instruction
we've determined to be profitable to sink becoming unprofitable.
So we need to iterate until we converge, as in determine
that all leftover instructions are profitable to sink.
But, the direct approach of just re-iterating seems dumb,
because in the worst case we'd find that the last instruction
is unprofitable, which would result in revisiting instructions
many many times.
Instead, i think we can get away with just two passes - forward and backward.
However then it isn't obvious what is the most performant way to update
InstructionsToSink.
While we have a known profitability issue for sinking in presence of
non-unconditional predecessors, there isn't any known issues
for having multiple such non-unconditional predecessors,
so said restriction appears to be artificial. Lift it.
There are post-commit notest for e4c61d5 that suggest
the test is failing on certain bots. It looks like
the code there isn't being moved, which suggests
cost-model involvement, which suggests that we need to
hardcode the target triple.
Hopefully this helps?

There is already code in InlineCost.cpp to identify and ignore ephemeral
values (llvm.assume intrinsics and other side-effect free instructions
only feeding the assumes). However, because llvm.type.test intrinsics
were not marked speculatable, they and any instructions specifically
feeding the type test (typically a bitcast) were being counted towards
the instruction cost when inlining. This was causing profile matching
issues in some cases when enabling -fwhole-program-vtables for whole
program devirtualization.
According to the language reference, the speculatable attribute means:
"the function does not have any effects besides calculating its result
and does not have undefined behavior". I see no reason why type tests
cannot be marked with this attribute.
There are 2 test changes:
llvm/test/Transforms/Inline/ephemeral.ll: I added a type test intrinsic
here to verify the fix. Also, I found the test was not actually testing
what it originally intended. Many of the existing instructions were
optimized away by -Oz, and the cost of inlining was negative due to the
benefit of removing the call. So I changed the test to simply invoke the
inline pass and check the number of instructions computed by InlineCost.
I also fixed an instruction that was not actually used anywhere.
llvm/test/Transforms/SimplifyCFG/no-md-sink.ll needed to be made more

As a side-effect of the change to default HoistCommonInsts to false
early in the pipeline, we fail to convert conditional branch & phis to
selects early on, which prevents vectorization for loops that contain
conditional branches that effectively are selects (or if the loop gets
vectorized, it will get vectorized very inefficiently).
This patch updates SimplifyCFG to perform hoisting if the only
instruction in both BBs is an equal branch. In this case, the only
additional instructions are selects for phis, which should be cheap.
Even though we perform hoisting, the benefits of this kind of hoisting
should by far outweigh the negatives.
For example, the loop in the code below will not get vectorized on
AArch64 with the current default, but will with the patch. This is a
fundamental pattern we should definitely vectorize. Besides that, I
think the select variants should be easier to use for reasoning across
other passes as well.

%sel1 = select i1 %cmp1, i32 %val, i32 %default
%res = select i1 %cmp2, i32 %val, i32 %sel1

We handle the case where we have two cases and a default all having
different values, but not the case where two cases happen to have
the same one.
The PhaseOrdering test is a particularly bad example where this
showed up.
These are supposed to test creation of a switch, so make sure
there is some actual code in the branches. Otherwise this could
be turned into a select instead.
`FoldBranchToCommonDest()` has a certain budget (`-bonus-inst-threshold=`)
for bonus instruction duplication. And currently it calculates the cost
as-if it will actually duplicate into each predecessor.
But ignoring the budget, it won't always duplicate into each predecessor,
there are some correctness and profitability checks.
So when calculating the cost, we should first check into which blocks
will we *actually* duplicate, and only then use that block count
to do budgeting.
We clone bonus instructions to the end of the predecessor block,
and then use `SSAUpdater::RewriteUseAfterInsertions()`.
But that only deals with the cases where the use-to-be-rewritten
are either in different block from the def, or come after the def.
But in some loop cases, the external use may be in the beginning of
predecessor block, before the newly cloned bonus instruction.
`SSAUpdater::RewriteUseAfterInsertions()` does not deal with that.
Notably, the external use can't happen to be both in the same block
and *after* the newly-cloned instruction, because of the fold preconditions.
To properly handle these cases, when the use is in the same block,
we should instead use `SSAUpdater::RewriteUse()`.
TBN, they do the same thing for PHI users.

This patch makes FoldBranchToCommonDest merge branch conditions into `select i1` rather than `and/or i1` when it is called by SimplifyCFG.
It is known that merging conditions into and/or is poison-unsafe, and this is towards making things *more* correct by removing possible miscompilations.
Currently, InstCombine simply consumes these selects into and/or of i1 (which is also unsafe), so the visible effect would be very small. The unsafe select -> and/or transformation will be removed in the future.
There has been efforts for updating optimizations to support the select form as well, and they are linked to D93065.
The safe transformation is fired when it is called by SimplifyCFG only. This is done by setting the new `PoisonSafe` argument as true.
Another place that calls FoldBranchToCommonDest is LoopSimplify. `PoisonSafe` flag is set to false in this case because enabling it has a nontrivial impact in performance because SCEV is more conservative with select form and InductiveRangeCheckElimination isn't aware of select form of and/or i1.

I have previously tried doing that in
b33fbbaa34 / d38205144f,
but eventually it was pointed out that the approach taken there
was just broken wrt how the uses of bonus instructions are updated
to account for the fact that they should now use either bonus instruction
or the cloned bonus instruction. In particluar, all that manual handling
of PHI nodes in successors was just wrong.
But, the fix is actually much much simpler than my initial approach:
just tell SSAUpdate about both instances of bonus instruction,
and let it deal with all the PHI handling.
Alive2 confirms that the reproducers from the original bugs (@pr48450*)
are now handled correctly.
This effectively reverts commit 59560e8589,
effectively relanding b33fbbaa34.
NewBonusInst just took name from BonusInst, so BonusInst has no name,
so BonusInst.getName() makes no sense.
So we need to ask NewBonusInst for the name.
Iff we know we can get rid of the inversions in the new pattern,
we can thus get rid of the inversion in the old pattern,
this decreasing instruction count.
Note that we could position this transformation as just hoisting
of the `not` (still, iff y is freely negatible), but the test changes
show a number of regressions, so let's not do that.
The case where BB ends with an unconditional branch,
and has a single predecessor w/ conditional branch
to BB and a single successor of BB is exactly the pattern
SpeculativelyExecuteBB() transform deals with.
(and in this case they both allow speculating only a single instruction)
Well, or FoldTwoEntryPHINode(), if the final block
has only those two predecessors.
Here, in FoldBranchToCommonDest(), only a weird subset of that
transform is supported, and it's glued on the side in a weird way.
In particular, it took me a bit to understand that the Cond
isn't actually a branch condition in that case, but just the value
we allow to speculate (otherwise it reads as a miscompile to me).
Additionally, this only supports for the speculated instruction
to be an ICmp.
So let's just unclutter FoldBranchToCommonDest(), and leave
this transform up to SpeculativelyExecuteBB(). As far as i can tell,
this shouldn't really impact optimization potential, but if it does,
improving SpeculativelyExecuteBB() will be more beneficial anyways.
Notably, this only affects a single test,
but EarlyCSE should have run beforehand in the pipeline,
and then FoldTwoEntryPHINode() would have caught it.

Currently SimplifyCFG drops the debug locations of 'bonus' instructions.

There are a few leftovers that apparently don't have good test coverage.
I do not yet know what gaps in test coverage will the wider-scale testing
reveal, but the default flip might be close.
We might be dealing with an unreachable code,
so the bonus instruction we clone might be self-referencing.
There is a sanity check that all uses of bonus instructions
that are not in the original block with said bonus instructions
are PHI nodes, and that is obviously not the case
for self-referencing instructions..
So if we find such an use, just rewrite it.

Even though d38205144f was mostly a correct
fix for the external non-PHI users, it's not a *generally* correct fix,
because the 'placeholder' values in those trivial PHI's we create
shouldn't be *always* 'undef', but the PHI itself for the backedges,
else we end up with wrong value, as the `@pr48450_2` test shows.
But we can't just do that, because we can't check that the PHI
can be it's own incoming value when coming from certain predecessor,
because we don't have a dominator tree.
So until we can address this correctness problem properly,
ensure that we don't perform the transformation
if there are such problematic external uses.
Making dominator tree available there is going to be involved,
since `-simplifycfg` pass currently does not preserve/update domtree...
In particular, if the successor block, which is about to get a new
predecessor block, currently only has a single predecessor,
then the bonus instructions will be directly used within said successor,
which is fine, since the block with bonus instructions dominates that
successor. But once there's a new predecessor, the IR is no longer valid,
and we don't fix it, because we only update PHI nodes.
Which means, the live-out bonus instructions must be exclusively used
by the PHI nodes in successor blocks. So we have to form trivial PHI nodes.
which will then be successfully updated to recieve cloned bonus instns.
This all works fine, except for the fact that we don't have access to
the dominator tree, and we don't ignore unreachable code,
so we sometimes do end up having to deal with some weird IR.
Fixes https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48450
There is no correctness need for that, and since we allow live-out
uses, this could theoretically happen, because currently nothing
will move the cond to right before the branch in those tests.
But regardless, lifting that restriction even makes the transform
easier to understand.
This makes the transform happen in 81 more cases (+0.55%)

This patch adds a new argument to getCmpSelInstrCost, to indicate the

sufficient to use the context instruction when querying the cost of a
vector select starting from a scalar one, because the condition of the
vector select could be composed of compares with different predicates.
This change greatly improves modeling the costs of certain
compare/select patterns on AArch64.
I am also planning on putting up patches to make use of the new argument in
SLPVectorizer & LV.

CallInst::updateProfWeight() creates branch_weights with i64 instead of i32.
To be more consistent everywhere and remove lots of casts from uint64_t
to uint32_t, use i64 for branch_weights.

-debug-pass is a legacy PM only option.
Some tests checks that the pass returned that it made a change,
which is not relevant to the NPM, since passes return PreservedAnalyses.
Some tests check that passes are freed at the proper time, which is also

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 does regress compile-time by +0.5% geomean (unsurprizingly)
* size impact varies; for ThinLTO it's actually an improvement
The largest fallout appears to be in GVN's load partial redundancy
elimination, it spends *much* more time in
`MemoryDependenceResults::getNonLocalPointerDependency()`.
Non-local `MemoryDependenceResults` is widely-known to be, uh, costly.
There does not appear to be a proper solution to this issue,
other than silencing the compile-time performance regression
by tuning cut-off thresholds in `MemoryDependenceResults`,
at the cost of potentially regressing run-time performance.
D84609 attempts to move in that direction, but the path is unclear
and is going to take some time.
If we look at stats before/after diffs, some excerpts:
* RawSpeed (the target) {F12360200}
* -14 (-73.68%) loops not rotated due to the header size (yay)
* -272 (-0.67%) `"Number of live out of a loop variables"` - good for vectorizer
* -3937 (-64.19%) common instructions hoisted
* +561 (+0.06%) x86 asm instructions
* -2 basic blocks
* +2418 (+0.11%) IR instructions
* vanilla test-suite + RawSpeed + darktable {F12360201}
* -36396 (-65.29%) common instructions hoisted
* +1676 (+0.02%) x86 asm instructions
* +662 (+0.06%) basic blocks
* +4395 (+0.04%) IR instructions
It is likely to be sub-optimal for when optimizing for code size,
so one might want to change tune pipeline by enabling sinking/hoisting
when optimizing for size.

This reverts commit 503deec218.
Modify FoldBranchToCommonDest to consider the cost of inserting
instructions when attempting to combine predicates to fold blocks.
The threshold can be controlled via a new option:
-simplifycfg-branch-fold-threshold which defaults to '2' to allow
the insertion of a not and another logical operator.

When a switch case is folded into default's case, that's an IR change that
should be reported, update ConstantFoldTerminator accordingly.

As disscussed in post-commit review starting with
https://reviews.llvm.org/D84108#2227365
while this appears to be mostly a win overall, especially code-size-wise,
this appears to shake //certain// code pattens in a way that is extremely
unfavorable for performance (+30% runtime regression)
on certain CPU's (i personally can't reproduce).
So until the behaviour is better understood, and a path forward is mapped,
let's back this out for now.
This reverts commit 1d51dc38d8.
