This patch uses the feature added in D79162 to fix the cost of a
sext/zext of a masked load, or a trunc for a masked store.
Previously, those were considered cheap or even free, but it's
not the case as we cannot split the load in the same way we would for
normal loads.
This updates the costs to better reflect reality, and adds a test for it
in test/Analysis/CostModel/ARM/cast.ll.
It also adds a vectorizer test that showcases the improvement: in some
cases, the vectorizer will now choose a smaller VF when
tail-predication is enabled, which results in better codegen. (Because
if it were to use a higher VF in those cases, the code we see above
would be generated, and the vmovs would block tail-predication later in
the process, resulting in very poor codegen overall)

It was getting difficult to see which test was in which file, so this
reorganises the test files so that now all filenames start with tail-folding-*
followed by a more descriptive name what that group of tests check.
This patch enables the LoopVectorizer to build a phi of pointer
type and provide the vector loads and stores with vector type
getelementptrs built from the pointer induction variable, which
produces much less instructions than the previous approach of
creating scalar getelementpointers and glue them together to a
vector.

If a vector body has live-out values, it is probably a reduction, which needs a
final reduction step after the loop. MVE has a VADDV instruction to reduce
integer vectors, but doesn't have an equivalent one for float vectors. A
live-out value that is not recognised as reduction later in the optimisation
pipeline will result in the tail-predicated loop to be reverted to a
non-predicated loop and this is very expensive, i.e. it has a significant
performance impact, which is what we hope to avoid with fine tuning the ARM TTI
hook preferPredicateOverEpilogue implementation.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D82953
This refactors option -disable-mve-tail-predication to take different arguments
so that we have 1 option to control tail-predication rather than several
different ones.
This is also a prep step for D82953, in which we want to reject reductions
unless that is requested with this option.

This adjusts the MVE fp16 cost model, similar to how we already do for
integer casts. It uses the base cost of 1 per cvt for most fp extend /
truncates, but adjusts it for loads and stores where we know that a
extending load has been used to get the load into the correct lane, and
only an MVE VCVTB is then needed.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D81813
This alters getMemoryOpCost to use the Base TargetTransformInfo version
that includes some additional checks for whether extending loads are
legal. This will generally have the effect of making <2 x ..> and some
<4 x ..> loads/stores more expensive, which in turn should help favour
larger vector factors.
Notably it alters the cost of a <4 x half>, which with the current
codegen will be expensive if it is not extended.

This emits new IR intrinsic @llvm.get.active.mask for tail-folded vectorised
loops if the intrinsic is supported by the backend, which is checked by
querying TargetTransform hook emitGetActiveLaneMask.
This intrinsic creates a mask representing active and inactive vector lanes,
which is used by the masked load/store instructions that are created for
tail-folded loops. The semantics of @llvm.get.active.mask are described here in
LangRef:
https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#llvm-get-active-lane-mask-intrinsics
This intrinsic is also used to provide a hint to the backend. That is, the
second argument of the intrinsic represents the back-edge taken count of the
loop. For MVE, for example, we use that to set up tail-predication, which is a
new form of predication in MVE for vector loops that implicitely predicates the
last vector loop iteration by implicitely setting active/inactive lanes, i.e.
the tail loop is predicated. In order to set up a tail-predicated vector loop,
we need to know the number of data elements processed by the vector loop, which
corresponds the the tripcount of the scalar loop, which we can now reconstruct
using @llvm.get.active.mask.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D79100
Similar to a recent change to the X86 backend, this changes things so
that we always produce a reduction intrinsics for all reduction types,
not just the legal ones. This gives a better chance in the backend to
custom lower them to something more suitable for MVE. Especially for
something like fadd the in-order reduction produced during DAG lowering
is already better than the shuffles produced in the midend, and we can
do even better with a bit of custom lowering.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D81398
This was reverted because of a miscompilation. At closer inspection, the
problem was actually visible in a changed llvm regression test too. This
one-line follow up fix/recommit will splat the IV, which is what we are trying
to avoid if unnecessary in general, if tail-folding is requested even if all
users are scalar instructions after vectorisation. Because with tail-folding,
the splat IV will be used by the predicate of the masked loads/stores
instructions. The previous version omitted this, which caused the
miscompilation. The original commit message was:
If tail-folding of the scalar remainder loop is applied, the primary induction
variable is splat to a vector and used by the masked load/store vector
instructions, thus the IV does not remain scalar. Because we now mark
that the IV does not remain scalar for these cases, we don't emit the vector IV
if it is not used. Thus, the vectoriser produces less dead code.
Thanks to Ayal Zaks for the direction how to fix this.
- Specifically check for sext/zext users which have 'long' form NEON
instructions.
- Add more entries to the table for sext/zexts so that we can report
more accurately the number of vmovls required for NEON.
- Pass the instruction to the pass implementation.

D77635 added support to recognise primary induction variables for counting-down
loops. This allows us to fold the scalar tail loop into the main vector body,
which we need for MVE tail-predication. This adds some ARM tail-folding test
cases that we want to support.
This test was extracted from D76838, which implemented a different approach to
reverse and thus find a primary induction variable.
The codegen for splitting a llvm.vector.reduction intrinsic into parts
will be better than the codegen for the generic reductions. This will
only directly effect when vectorization factors are specified by the
user.
Also added tests to make sure the codegen for larger reductions is OK.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D72257
Architecturally, it's allowed to have MVE-I without an FPU, thus
-mfpu=none should not disable MVE-I, or moves to/from FP-registers.
This patch removes `+/-fpregs` from features unconditionally added to
target feature list, depending on FPU and moves the logic to Clang
driver, where the negative form (`-fpregs`) is conditionally added to
the target features list for the cases of `-mfloat-abi=soft`, or
`-mfpu=none` without either `+mve` or `+mve.fp`. Only the negative
form is added by the driver, the positive one is derived from other
features in the backend.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D71843
This addresses a vectorisation regression for tail-folded loops that are
counting down, e.g. loops as simple as this:
void foo(char *A, char *B, char *C, uint32_t N) {
while (N > 0) {
*C++ = *A++ + *B++;
N--;
}
}
These are loops that can be vectorised, but when tail-folding is requested, it
can't find a primary induction variable which we do need for predicating the
loop. As a result, the loop isn't vectorised at all, which it is able to do
when tail-folding is not attempted. So, this adds a check for the primary
induction variable where we decide how to lower the scalar epilogue. I.e., when
there isn't a primary induction variable, a scalar epilogue loop is allowed
(i.e. don't request tail-folding) so that vectorisation could still be
triggered.
Having this check for the primary induction variable make sense anyway, and in
addition, in a follow-up of this I will look into discovering earlier the
primary induction variable for counting down loops, so that this can also be
tail-folded.

With the extra optimisations we have done, these should now be fine to
enable by default. Which is what this patch does.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D70968
This attempts to teach the cost model in Arm that code such as:
%s = shl i32 %a, 3
%a = and i32 %s, %b
Can under Arm or Thumb2 become:
and r0, r1, r2, lsl #3
So the cost of the shift can essentially be free. To do this without
trying to artificially adjust the cost of the "and" instruction, it
needs to get the users of the shl and check if they are a type of
instruction that the shift can be folded into. And so it needs to have
access to the actual instruction in getArithmeticInstrCost, which if
available is added as an extra parameter much like getCastInstrCost.
We otherwise limit it to shifts with a single user, which should
hopefully handle most of the cases. The list of instruction that the
shift can be folded into include ADC, ADD, AND, BIC, CMP, EOR, MVN, ORR,
ORN, RSB, SBC and SUB. This translates to Add, Sub, And, Or, Xor and
ICmp.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D70966
This adds some extra cost model tests for shifts, and does some minor
adjustments to some Neon code to make it clear as to what it applies to.
Both NFC.
Alas, using half the available vector registers in a single instruction
is just too much for the register allocator to handle. The mve-vldst4.ll
test here fails when these instructions are enabled at present. This
patch disables the generation of VLD4 and VST4 by adding a
mve-max-interleave-factor option, which we currently default to 2.

Follow-up of cb47b8783: don't query TTI->preferPredicateOverEpilogue when
option -prefer-predicate-over-epilog is set to false, i.e. when we prefer not

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D70382
Now that we have the intrinsics, we can add VLD2/4 and VST2/4 lowering
for MVE. This works the same way as Neon, recognising the load/shuffles
combination and converting them into intrinsics in a pre-isel pass,
which just calls getMaxSupportedInterleaveFactor, lowerInterleavedLoad
and lowerInterleavedStore.
The main difference to Neon is that we do not have a VLD3 instruction.
Otherwise most of the code works very similarly, with just some minor
differences in the form of the intrinsics to work around. VLD3 is
disabled by making isLegalInterleavedAccessType return false for those
cases.
We may need some other future adjustments, such as VLD4 take up half the
available registers so should maybe cost more. This patch should get the
basics in though.

The vectoriser queries TTI->preferPredicateOverEpilogue to determine if
tail-folding is preferred for a loop, but it was not respecting loop hint
'predicate' that can disable this, which has now been added. This showed that
we were incorrectly initialising loop hint 'vectorize.predicate.enable' with 0
(i.e. FK_Disabled) but this should have been FK_Undefined, which has been
fixed.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D70125
This implements TTI hook 'preferPredicateOverEpilogue' for MVE. This is a
first version and it operates on single block loops only. With this change, the
vectoriser will now determine if tail-folding scalar remainder loops is
possible/desired, which is the first step to generate MVE tail-predicated
vector loops.
This is disabled by default for now. I.e,, this is depends on option
-disable-mve-tail-predication, which is off by default.
I will follow up on this soon with a patch for the vectoriser to respect loop
hint 'vectorize.predicate.enable'. I.e., with this loop hint set to Disabled,
we don't want to tail-fold and we shouldn't query this TTI hook, which is
done in D70125.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D69845
We have two ways to steer creating a predicated vector body over creating a
scalar epilogue. To force this, we have 1) a command line option and 2) a
pragma available. This adds a third: a target hook to TargetTransformInfo that
can be queried whether predication is preferred or not, which allows the
vectoriser to make the decision without forcing it.
While this change behaves as a non-functional change for now, it shows the
required TTI plumbing, usage of this new hook in the vectoriser, and the
beginning of an ARM MVE implementation. I will follow up on this with:
- a complete MVE implementation, see D69845.
- a patch to disable this, i.e. we should respect "vector_predicate(disable)"
and its corresponding loophint.

Now that the vectorizer can do tail-folding (rL367592), and the ARM backend
understands MVE masked loads/stores (rL371932), it's time to add the MVE
tail-folding equivalent of the X86 tests that I added.
llvm-svn: 371996
Masked loads and store fit naturally with MVE, the instructions being easily
predicated. This adds lowering for the simple cases of masked loads and stores.
It does not yet deal with widening/narrowing or pre/post inc, and so is
currently behind an option.
The llvm masked load intrinsic will accept a "passthru" value, dictating the
values used for the zero masked lanes. In MVE the instructions write 0 to the
zero predicated lanes, so we need to match a passthru that isn't 0 (or undef)
with a select instruction to pull in the correct data after the load.

We don't yet know how to generate these instructions for MVE. And in the case

With enough codegen complete, we can now correctly report the number and size

Summary:
This change adds some verification in the IR verifier around struct path
TBAA metadata.
Other than some basic sanity checks (e.g. we get constant integers where
we expect constant integers), this checks:
- That by the time an struct access tuple `(base-type, offset)` is
"reduced" to a scalar base type, the offset is `0`. For instance, in
C++ you can't start from, say `("struct-a", 16)`, and end up with
`("int", 4)` -- by the time the base type is `"int"`, the offset
better be zero. In particular, a variant of this invariant is needed
for `llvm::getMostGenericTBAA` to be correct.
- That there are no cycles in a struct path.
- That struct type nodes have their offsets listed in an ascending
order.
- That when generating the struct access path, you eventually reach the
access type listed in the tbaa tag node.

patch makes collectConstStridedAccesses use an optimistic approach, calling
getPtrStride with [Assume=true, ShouldCheckWrap=false], and then, once the
candidate interleave groups have been formed, revisits the pointer-wrapping
analysis but only where it matters: namely, in groups that have gaps, and where
the gaps are not at the very end of the group (in which case the loop is
peeled). This second time getPtrStride is called with [Assume=false,
ShouldCheckWrap=true], but this could further be improved to using Assume=true,
once we also add the logic to track that we are not going to meet the scev
runtime checks threshold.

Some SIMD implementations are not IEEE-754 compliant, for example ARM's NEON.
This patch teaches the loop vectorizer to only allow transformations of loops
that either contain no floating-point operations or have enough allowance
flags supporting lack of precision (ex. -ffast-math, Darwin).
For that, the target description now has a method which tells us if the
vectorizer is allowed to handle FP math without falling into unsafe
representations, plus a check on every FP instruction in the candidate loop
to check for the safety flags.
This commit makes LLVM behave like GCC with respect to ARM NEON support, but
it stops short of fixing the underlying problem: sub-normals. Neither GCC
nor LLVM have a flag for allowing sub-normal operations. Before this patch,
GCC only allows it using unsafe-math flags and LLVM allows it by default with
no way to turn it off (short of not using NEON at all).
As a first step, we push this change to make it safe and in sync with GCC.
The second step is to discuss a new sub-normal's flag on both communitues
and come up with a common solution. The third step is to improve the FastMath
flags in LLVM to encode sub-normals and use those flags to restrict NEON FP.
Fixes PR16275.

Summary:
This function was not taking into account that the
input type could be a vector, and wasn't properly
working for vector types.
This caused an assert when building spec2k6 perlbmk for armv8.

Summary:
Fix the cost of interleaved accesses for ARM/AArch64.
We were calling getTypeAllocSize and using it to check
the number of bits, when we should have called
getTypeAllocSizeInBits instead.
This would pottentially cause the vectorizer to
generate loads/stores and shuffles which cannot
be matched with an interleaved access instruction.
No performance changes are expected for now since
matching/generating interleaved accesses is still
disabled by default.

One of several parallel first steps to remove the target type of pointers,
replacing them with a single opaque pointer type.
This adds an explicit type parameter to the gep instruction so that when the
first parameter becomes an opaque pointer type, the type to gep through is
still available to the instructions.
* This doesn't modify gep operators, only instructions (operators will be
handled separately)
* Textual IR changes only. Bitcode (including upgrade) and changing the
in-memory representation will be in separate changes.
* geps of vectors are transformed as:
getelementptr <4 x float*> %x, ...
->getelementptr float, <4 x float*> %x, ...
Then, once the opaque pointer type is introduced, this will ultimately look
like:
getelementptr float, <4 x ptr> %x
with the unambiguous interpretation that it is a vector of pointers to float.
* address spaces remain on the pointer, not the type:
getelementptr float addrspace(1)* %x
->getelementptr float, float addrspace(1)* %x
Then, eventually:
getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %x
Importantly, the massive amount of test case churn has been automated by
same crappy python code. I had to manually update a few test cases that
wouldn't fit the script's model (r228970,r229196,r229197,r229198). The
python script just massages stdin and writes the result to stdout, I
then wrapped that in a shell script to handle replacing files, then
using the usual find+xargs to migrate all the files.

import fileinput

import re
ibrep = re.compile(r"(^.*?[^%\w]getelementptr inbounds )(((?:<\d* x )?)(.*?)(| addrspace\(\d\)) *\*(|>)(?:$| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$))")
normrep = re.compile( r"(^.*?[^%\w]getelementptr )(((?:<\d* x )?)(.*?)(| addrspace\(\d\)) *\*(|>)(?:$| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$))")

The actual commands:
From llvm/src:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh
From llvm/src/tools/clang:
find test/ -name *.mm -o -name *.m -o -name *.cpp -o -name *.c | xargs -I '{}' ../../apply.sh "{}"
From llvm/src/tools/polly:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh
After that, check-all (with llvm, clang, clang-tools-extra, lld,
compiler-rt, and polly all checked out).
The extra 'rm' in the apply.sh script is due to a few files in clang's test
suite using interesting unicode stuff that my python script was throwing
exceptions on. None of those files needed to be migrated, so it seemed
sufficient to ignore those cases.

- Instead of setting the suffixes in a bunch of places, just set one master
list in the top-level config. We now only modify the suffix list in a few
suites that have one particular unique suffix (.ml, .mc, .yaml, .td, .py).
- Aside from removing the need for a bunch of lit.local.cfg files, this enables
4 tests that were inadvertently being skipped (one in
Transforms/BranchFolding, a .s file each in DebugInfo/AArch64 and
CodeGen/PowerPC, and one in CodeGen/SI which is now failing and has been
XFAILED).
- This commit also fixes a bunch of config files to use config.root instead of
older copy-pasted code.

We don't have a detailed analysis on which values are vectorized and which stay scalars in the vectorized loop so we use
another method. We look at reduction variables, loads and stores, which are the only ways to get information in and out
of loop iterations. If the data types are extended and truncated then the cost model will catch the cost of the vector
zext/sext/trunc operations.
