Currently we will allow loops with a fixed width VF of 1 to vectorize
if the -enable-strict-reductions flag is set. However, the loop vectorizer
will not use ordered reductions if `VF.isScalar()` and the resulting
vectorized loop will be out of order.
This patch removes `VF.isVector()` when checking if ordered reductions
should be used. Also, instead of converting the FAdds to reductions if the
VF = 1, operands of the FAdds are changed such that the order is preserved.

This really isn't talking about vectors in general,
but only about either fixed or scalable vectors,
and it's pretty confusing to see it state
that there aren't any vectors :)
At the moment, we create insertelement instructions directly after
LastInst when inserting scalar values in a vector in
VPTransformState::get.
This results in invalid IR when LastInst is a phi, followed by another
phi. In that case, the new instructions should be inserted just after
the last PHI node in the block.
At the moment, I don't think the problematic case can be triggered, but
it can happen once predicate regions are merged and multiple
VPredInstPHI recipes are in the same block (D100260).

This can be seen as a follow up to commit 0ee439b705,
that changed the second argument of __powidf2, __powisf2 and
__powitf2 in compiler-rt from si_int to int. That was to align with
how those runtimes are defined in libgcc.
One thing that seem to have been missing in that patch was to make
sure that the rest of LLVM also handle that the argument now depends
on the size of int (not using the si_int machine mode for 32-bit).
When using __builtin_powi for a target with 16-bit int clang crashed.
And when emitting libcalls to those rtlib functions, typically when
lowering @llvm.powi), the backend would always prepare the exponent
argument as an i32 which caused miscompiles when the rtlib was
compiled with 16-bit int.
The solution used here is to use an overloaded type for the second
argument in @llvm.powi. This way clang can use the "correct" type
when lowering __builtin_powi, and then later when emitting the libcall
it is assumed that the type used in @llvm.powi matches the rtlib
function.
One thing that needed some extra attention was that when vectorizing
calls several passes did not support that several arguments could
be overloaded in the intrinsics. This patch allows overload of a
scalar operand by adding hasVectorInstrinsicOverloadedScalarOpd, with
an entry for powi.

If the `-enable-strict-reductions` flag is set to true, then currently we will
always choose to vectorize the loop with strict in-order reductions. This is
not necessary where we allow the reordering of FP operations, such as
when loop hints are passed via metadata.
This patch moves useOrderedReductions so that we can also check whether
loop hints allow reordering, in which case we should use the default
behaviour of vectorizing with unordered reductions.

This patch marks the induction increment of the main induction variable
of the vector loop as NUW when not folding the tail.
If the tail is not folded, we know that End - Start >= Step (either
statically or through the minimum iteration checks). We also know that both
Start % Step == 0 and End % Step == 0. We exit the vector loop if %IV +
%Step == %End. Hence we must exit the loop before %IV + %Step unsigned
overflows and we can mark the induction increment as NUW.
This should make SCEV return more precise bounds for the created vector
loops, used by later optimizations, like late unrolling.
At the moment quite a few tests still need to be updated, but before
doing so I'd like to get initial feedback to make sure I am not missing
anything.
Note that this could probably be further improved by using information
from the original IV.

vscale is not 1 it just means that the profiling data isn't as

This patch adds a new option to the LoopVectorizer to control how
scalable vectors can be used.
Initially, this suggests three levels to control scalable
vectorization, although other more aggressive options can be added in
the future.
The possible options are:
- Disabled: Disables vectorization with scalable vectors.
- Enabled: Vectorize loops using scalable vectors or fixed-width
vectors, but favors fixed-width vectors when the cost
is a tie.
- Preferred: Like 'Enabled', but favoring scalable vectors when the

My best guess is that the original patch exposed that latent issue at higher frequency, but it really is just a guess.
Original commit message follows...
If we know that the scalar epilogue is required to run, modify the CFG to end the middle block with an unconditional branch to scalar preheader. This is instead of a conditional branch to either the preheader or the exit block.
The motivation to do this is to support multiple exit blocks. Specifically, the current structure forces us to identify immediate dominators and *which* exit block to branch from in the middle terminator. For the multiple exit case - where we know require scalar will hold - these questions are ill formed.
This is the last change needed to support multiple exit loops, but since the diffs are already large enough, I'm going to land this, and then enable separately. You can think of this as being NFCIish prep work, but the changes are a bit too involved for me to feel comfortable tagging the review that way.

As discussed in D102437, the VF argument to isScalarWithPredication
seems redundant, so this is intended to be a non-functional change. It
seems wrong to query the widening decision at this point. Removing the
operand and code to get the widening decision causes no unit/regression
tests to fail. I've also found no issues running the LLVM test-suite.
This subsequently removes the VF argument from isPredicatedInst as well,
since it is no longer required.
In InnerLoopVectorizer::widenPHIInstruction there are cases where we have
to scalarise a pointer induction variable after vectorisation. For scalable
vectors we already deal with the case where the pointer induction variable
is uniform, but we currently crash if not uniform. For fixed width vectors
we calculate every lane of the scalarised pointer induction variable for a
given VF, however this cannot work for scalable vectors. In this case I
have added support for caching the whole vector value for each unrolled
part so that we can always extract an arbitrary element. Additionally, we
still continue to cache the known minimum number of lanes too in order
to improve code quality by avoiding an extractelement operation.

The loop vectorizer will currently assume a large trip count when
calculating which of several vectorization factors are more profitable.
That is often not a terrible assumption to make as small trip count
loops will usually have been fully unrolled. There are cases however
where we will try to vectorize them, and especially when folding the
tail by masking can incorrectly choose to vectorize loops that are not
beneficial, due to the folded tail rounding the iteration count up for
the vectorized loop.
The motivating example here has a trip count of 5, so either performs 5
scalar iterations or 2 vector iterations (with VF=4). At a high enough
trip count the vectorization becomes profitable, but the rounding up to
2 vector iterations vs only 5 scalar makes it unprofitable.
This adds an alternative cost calculation when we know the max trip
count and are folding tail by masking, rounding the iteration count up
to the correct number for the vector width. We still do not account for
anything like setup cost or the mixture of vector and scalar loops, but
this is at least an improvement in a few cases that we have had
reported.

LoopVectorize has a fairly deeply baked in design problem where it will try to query analysis (primarily SCEV, but also ValueTracking) in the midst of mutating IR. In particular, the intermediate IR state does not represent the semantics of the original (or final) program.
Fixing this for real is hard, but all of the cases seen so far share a common symptom. In cases seen to date, the analysis being queried is the computation of the original loop's trip count. We can fix this particular instance of the issue by simply computing the trip count early, and caching it.
I want to be really clear that this is nothing but a workaround. It does nothing to fix the root issue, and at best, delays the time until we have to fix this for real. Florian and I have discussed an eventual solution in the review comments for https://reviews.llvm.org/D100663, but it's a lot of work.

This patch simplifies the calculation of certain costs in

There are a few places where we multiply a cost by a number N, i.e.
unsigned N = isScalarAfterVectorization(I, VF) ? VF.getKnownMinValue() : 1;
return N * TTI.getArithmeticInstrCost(...
After some investigation it seems that there are only these cases that occur
in practice:
1. VF is a scalar, in which case N = 1.
2. VF is a vector. We can only get here if: a) the instruction is a
GEP/bitcast/PHI with scalar uses, or b) this is an update to an induction
variable that remains scalar.
I have changed the code so that N is assumed to always be 1. For GEPs
the cost is always 0, since this is calculated later on as part of the
load/store cost. PHI nodes are costed separately and were never previously
multiplied by VF. For all other cases I have added an assert that none of
the users needs scalarising, which didn't fire in any unit tests.
Only one test required fixing and I believe the original cost for the scalar
add instruction to have been wrong, since only one copy remains after
vectorisation.
I have also added a new test for the case when a pointer PHI feeds directly
into a store that will be scalarised as we were previously never testing it.
