Summary:
The call to canEvaluateZExtd in InstCombiner::visitZExt may
return with BitsToClear == SrcTy->getScalarSizeInBits(), but
there is an assert that BitsToClear should be smaller than
SrcTy->getScalarSizeInBits().
I have a test case that triggers the assert, but it only happens
for my downstream target. I've not been able to trigger it for
any upstream target.
The assert triggered for a piece of code such as this
%shr1 = lshr i16 undef, 15
...
%shr2 = lshr i16 %shr1, 1
%conv = zext i16 %shr2 to i32
Normally the lshr instructions are constant folded before we
visit the zext (that is why it is so hard to reproduce).
The original pattern, before instcombine, is of course a lot more
complicated in my test case. The shift count in the second lshr
is for example determined by the outcome of a PHI instruction.
It seems like other rewrites by instcombine leads up to
the pattern above. And then the zext is pulled from the
worklist, and visited (hitting the assert), before we detect
that the lshr instrucions can be constant folded.
Anyway, since the canEvaluateZExtd may return with BitsToClear
equal to SrcTy->getScalarSizeInBits(), and since the rewrite
that converts the expression type to avoid a zero extend works
also for the case where SrcBitsKept ends up being zero, then
it should be OK to liberate the assert to
assert(BitsToClear <= SrcTy->getScalarSizeInBits() &&
"Unreasonable BitsToClear");

This was committed at r297155 and reverted at r297166 because of an

This one seems more obvious than D30270 that it can't make improvements because an extension always needs
all of the incoming bits. There's one specific transform in SimplifyDemandedInstructionBits of converting
a sext to a zext when the sign-bit is known zero, but that is handled explicitly in visitSext() with
ComputeSignBit().
Like D30270, there are no IR differences (other than instruction names) for the case in PR32037:
https://bugs.llvm.org//show_bug.cgi?id=32037
...and no regression test differences.
Zext/sext are a smaller part of the profile, but this still appears to shave off another 0.5% or so from
'opt -O2'.

This solves a secondary problem seen in PR6137:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=6137#c6
This is similar to the bitwise logic op fold added with:
https://reviews.llvm.org/rL287707
And like that patch, I'm artificially restricting the
transform from vector <-> scalar types until we're sure
that the backend can handle that.
llvm-svn: 288584
In PR27925:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27925
...we proposed adding this fold to eliminate a bitcast. In D20774, there was
some concern about changing the type of a bitwise op as well as creating
bitcasts that might not be free for a target. However, if we're strictly
eliminating an instruction (by limiting this to one-use ops), then we should
be able to do this in InstCombine.
But we're cautiously restricting the transform for now to vector types to
avoid possible backend problems. A transform to make sure the logic op is
legal for the target should be added to reverse this transform and improve
codegen.

The original patch of the A->B->A BitCast optimization was reverted by r274094 because it may cause infinite loop inside compiler https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27996.
The problem is with following code
xB = load (type B);
xA = load (type A);
+yA = (A)xB; B -> A
+zAn = PHI[yA, xA]; PHI
+zBn = (B)zAn; // A -> B
store zAn;
store zBn;
optimizeBitCastFromPhi generates
+zBn = (B)zAn; // A -> B
and expects it will be combined with the following store instruction to another
store zAn
Unfortunately before combineStoreToValueType is called on the store instruction, optimizeBitCastFromPhi is called on the new BitCast again, and this pattern repeats indefinitely.
optimizeBitCastFromPhi only generates BitCast for load/store instructions, only the BitCast before store can cause the reexecution of optimizeBitCastFromPhi, and BitCast before store can easily be handled by InstCombineLoadStoreAlloca.cpp. So the solution to the problem is if all users of a CI are store instructions, we should not do optimizeBitCastFromPhi on it. Then optimizeBitCastFromPhi will not be called on the new BitCast instructions.

Summary:
InstCombine unfolds expressions of the form `zext(or(icmp, icmp))` to `or(zext(icmp), zext(icmp))` such that in a later iteration of InstCombine the exposed `zext(icmp)` instructions can be optimized. We now combine this unfolding and the subsequent `zext(icmp)` optimization to be performed together. Since the unfolding doesn't happen separately anymore, we also again enable the folding of `logic(cast(icmp), cast(icmp))` expressions to `cast(logic(icmp, icmp))` which had been disabled due to its interference with the unfolding transformation.
Tested via `make check` and `lnt`.
Background
==========
For a better understanding on how it came to this change we subsequently summarize its history. In commit r275989 we've already tried to enable the folding of `logic(cast(icmp), cast(icmp))` to `cast(logic(icmp, icmp))` which had to be reverted in r276106 because it could lead to an endless loop in InstCombine (also see http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20160718/374347.html). The root of this problem is that in `visitZExt()` in InstCombineCasts.cpp there also exists a reverse of the above folding transformation, that unfolds `zext(or(icmp, icmp))` to `or(zext(icmp), zext(icmp))` in order to expose `zext(icmp)` operations which would then possibly be eliminated by subsequent iterations of InstCombine. However, before these `zext(icmp)` would be eliminated the folding from r275989 could kick in and cause InstCombine to endlessly switch back and forth between the folding and the unfolding transformation. This is the reason why we now combine the `zext`-unfolding and the elimination of the exposed `zext(icmp)` to happen at one go because this enables us to still allow the cast-folding in `logic(cast(icmp), cast(icmp))` without entering an endless loop again.
Details on the submitted changes
================================
- In `visitZExt()` we combine the unfolding and optimization of `zext` instructions.
- In `transformZExtICmp()` we have to use `Builder->CreateIntCast()` instead of `CastInst::CreateIntegerCast()` to make sure that the new `CastInst` is inserted in a `BasicBlock`. The new calls to `transformZExtICmp()` that we introduce in `visitZExt()` would otherwise cause according assertions to be triggered (in our case this happend, for example, with lnt for the MultiSource/Applications/sqlite3 and SingleSource/Regression/C++/EH/recursive-throw tests). The subsequent usage of `replaceInstUsesWith()` is necessary to ensure that the new `CastInst` replaces the `ZExtInst` accordingly.
- In InstCombineAndOrXor.cpp we again allow the folding of casts on `icmp` instructions.
- The instruction order in the optimized IR for the zext-or-icmp.ll test case is different with the introduced changes.
- The test cases in zext.ll have been adopted from the reverted commits r275989 and r276105.

Summary:
This patch cleans up parts of InstCombine to raise its compliance with the LLVM coding standards and to increase its readability. The changes and according rationale are summarized in the following:
- Rename `ShouldOptimizeCast()` to `shouldOptimizeCast()` since functions should start with a lower case letter.
- Move `shouldOptimizeCast()` from InstCombineCasts.cpp to InstCombineAndOrXor.cpp since it's only used there.
- Simplify interface of `shouldOptimizeCast()`.
- Minor code style adaptions in `shouldOptimizeCast()`.
- Remove the documentation on the function definition of `shouldOptimizeCast()` since it just repeats the documentation on its declaration. Also enhance the documentation on its declaration with more information describing its intended use and make it doxygen-compliant.
- Change a comment in `foldCastedBitwiseLogic()` from `fold (logic (cast A), (cast B)) -> (cast (logic A, B))` to `fold logic(cast(A), cast(B)) -> cast(logic(A, B))` since the surrounding comments use this format.
- Remove comment `Only do this if the casts both really cause code to be generated.` in `foldCastedBitwiseLogic()` since it just repeats parts of the documentation of `shouldOptimizeCast()` and does not help to improve readability.
- Simplify the interface of `isEliminableCastPair()`.
- Removed the documentation on the function definition of `isEliminableCastPair()` which only contained obvious statements about its implementation. Instead added more general doxygen-compliant documentation to its declaration.
- Renamed parameter `DoXform` of `transformZExtIcmp()` to `DoTransform` to make its intention clearer.
- Moved documentation of `transformZExtIcmp()` from its definition to its declaration and made it doxygen-compliant.

Note that the existing check for "isVectorTy()" wasn't strong enough in general
and specifically because: x86_mmx. It's not a vector, but it's not vectorizable
either. So here we check VectorType::isValidElementType() directly before
proceeding with the transform.

The select pattern recognition in ValueTracking (as used by InstCombine

it about minimum and maximum operations.
matchSelectPattern() has been extended to return a struct containing the
existing Flavor and a new enum defining the pattern's behavior when
given one NaN operand.
C minnum() is defined to return the non-NaN operand in this case, but
the idiomatic C "a < b ? a : b" would return the NaN operand.
ARM and AArch64 at least have different instructions for these different cases.

This just didn't need to be here at all, but the assertion I tried to
add wasn't appropriate either - the circumstance isn't impossible, it's
just not important to deal with it here - the gep-rooted version of this

case where the gep happens to be used in a bitcast.
llvm-svn: 233404
The changes to InstCombine (& SCEV) do seem a bit silly - it doesn't make
anything obviously better to have the caller access the pointers element
type (the thing I'm trying to remove) than the GEP itself, but it's a
helpful migration step. This will allow me to more obviously lock down
GEP (& Load, etc) API usage, then fix all the code that accesses pointer
element types except the places that need to be removed (most of the
InstCombines) anyway - at which point I'll need to just remove all that
code because it won't be meaningful anymore (there will be no pointer
types, so no bitcasts to combine)
SCEV looks like it'll need some restructuring - we'll have to do a bit
more work for GEP canonicalization, since it'll depend on how it's used
if we can even manage to canonicalize it to a non-ugly GEP. I guess we
can do some fun stuff like voting (do 2 out of 3 load from the GEP with
a certain type that gives a pretty GEP? Does every typed use of the GEP
use either a specific type or a generic type (i8*, etc)?)

Summary:
Now that the DataLayout is a mandatory part of the module, let's start
cleaning the codebase. This patch is a first attempt at doing that.
This patch is not exactly NFC as for instance some places were passing
a nullptr instead of the DataLayout, possibly just because there was a
default value on the DataLayout argument to many functions in the API.
Even though it is not purely NFC, there is no change in the
validation.
I turned as many pointer to DataLayout to references, this helped
figuring out all the places where a nullptr could come up.
I had initially a local version of this patch broken into over 30
independant, commits but some later commit were cleaning the API and
touching part of the code modified in the previous commits, so it
seemed cleaner without the intermediate state.

If we know that the sign bit of a value being sign extended is zero, we can use a zero extension instead. This is motivated by the fact that zero extensions are generally cheaper on x86 (and most other architectures?). We already apply a similar transform in DAGCombine, this just extends that to the IR level.
This comes up when we eagerly canonicalize gep indices to the width of a machine register (i64 on x86_64). To do so, we insert sign extensions (sext) to promote smaller types.

elsewhere or going away, it might make more sense to make this the

While the term "Target" is in the name, it doesn't really have to do

different runtime environments. The "target" in this sense is the more

that's the existing behavior.

This change, which allows @llvm.assume to be used from within computeKnownBits
(and other associated functions in ValueTracking), adds some (optional)
parameters to computeKnownBits and friends. These functions now (optionally)
take a "context" instruction pointer, an AssumptionTracker pointer, and also a
DomTree pointer, and most of the changes are just to pass this new information
when it is easily available from InstSimplify, InstCombine, etc.
As explained below, the significant conceptual change is that known properties
of a value might depend on the control-flow location of the use (because we
care that the @llvm.assume dominates the use because assumptions have
control-flow dependencies). This means that, when we ask if bits are known in a
value, we might get different answers for different uses.
The significant changes are all in ValueTracking. Two main changes: First, as
with the rest of the code, new parameters need to be passed around. To make
this easier, I grouped them into a structure, and I made internal static
versions of the relevant functions that take this structure as a parameter. The
new code does as you might expect, it looks for @llvm.assume calls that make
use of the value we're trying to learn something about (often indirectly),
attempts to pattern match that expression, and uses the result if successful.
By making use of the AssumptionTracker, the process of finding @llvm.assume
calls is not expensive.
Part of the structure being passed around inside ValueTracking is a set of
already-considered @llvm.assume calls. This is to prevent a query using, for
example, the assume(a == b), to recurse on itself. The context and DT params
are used to find applicable assumptions. An assumption needs to dominate the
context instruction, or come after it deterministically. In this latter case we
only handle the specific case where both the assumption and the context
instruction are in the same block, and we need to exclude assumptions from
being used to simplify their own ephemeral values (those which contribute only
to the assumption) because otherwise the assumption would prove its feeding
comparison trivial and would be removed.
This commit adds the plumbing and the logic for a simple masked-bit propagation
(just enough to write a regression test). Future commits add more patterns
(and, correspondingly, more regression tests).

In the original version of the patch the behaviour was like described in
the comment. This behaviour was changed before committing it without
updating the comment.

As a follow-up to r210375 which canonicalizes addrspacecast
instructions, this patch canonicalizes addrspacecast constant
expressions.
Given clang uses ConstantExpr::getAddrSpaceCast to emit addrspacecast
cosntant expressions, this patch is also a step towards having the
frontend emit canonicalized addrspacecasts.
Piggyback a minor refactor in InstCombineCasts.cpp
Update three affected tests in addrspacecast-alias.ll,
access-non-generic.ll and constant-fold-gep.ll and added one new test in
constant-fold-address-space-pointer.ll

addrspacecast X addrspace(M)* to Y addrspace(N)*
-->
bitcast X addrspace(M)* to Y addrspace(M)*
addrspacecast Y addrspace(M)* to Y addrspace(N)*
Updat all affected tests and add several new tests in addrspacecast.ll.
This patch is based on http://reviews.llvm.org/D2186 (authored by Matt
Arsenault) with fixes and more tests.
