This changes the definition of t2DoLoopStart from
t2DoLoopStart rGPR
to
GPRlr = t2DoLoopStart rGPR
This will hopefully mean that low overhead loops are more tied together,
and we can more reliably generate loops without reverting or being at
the whims of the register allocator.
This is a fairly simple change in itself, but leads to a number of other
required alterations.
- The hardware loop pass, if UsePhi is set, now generates loops of the
form:
%start = llvm.start.loop.iterations(%N)
loop:
%p = phi [%start], [%dec]
%dec = llvm.loop.decrement.reg(%p, 1)
%c = icmp ne %dec, 0
br %c, loop, exit
- For this a new llvm.start.loop.iterations intrinsic was added, identical
to llvm.set.loop.iterations but produces a value as seen above, gluing
the loop together more through def-use chains.
- This new instrinsic conceptually produces the same output as input,
which is taught to SCEV so that the checks in MVETailPredication are not
affected.
- Some minor changes are needed to the ARMLowOverheadLoop pass, but it has
been left mostly as before. We should now more reliably be able to tell
that the t2DoLoopStart is correct without having to prove it, but
t2WhileLoopStart and tail-predicated loops will remain the same.
- And all the tests have been updated. There are a lot of them!
This patch on it's own might cause more trouble that it helps, with more
tail-predicated loops being reverted, but some additional patches can
hopefully improve upon that to get to something that is better overall.

In some cases, it seems like we can get rid of unnecessary s/umins by
using information from the loop guards (unless I am missing something).
One place where this seems to be helpful in practice is when computing
loop trip counts. This patch just changes howManyGreaterThans for now.
Note that this requires a loop for which we can check 'is guarded'.
On SPEC2000/SPEC2006/MultiSource, there are some notable changes for
some programs in the number of loops unrolled and trip counts computed.

This is split off from D80316, slightly tightening the definition of overloaded
hardwareloop intrinsic llvm.loop.decrement.reg specifying that both operands
its result have the same type.
Introduce llvm.test.set.loop.iterations which sets the loop counter
and also produces an i1 after testing that the count is not zero.

Patch which introduces a target-independent framework for generating
hardware loops at the IR level. Most of the code has been taken from
PowerPC CTRLoops and PowerPC has been ported over to use this generic
pass. The target dependent parts have been moved into
TargetTransformInfo, via isHardwareLoopProfitable, with
HardwareLoopInfo introduced to transfer information from the backend.
Three generic intrinsics have been introduced:
- void @llvm.set_loop_iterations
Takes as a single operand, the number of iterations to be executed.
- i1 @llvm.loop_decrement(anyint)
Takes the maximum number of elements processed in an iteration of
the loop body and subtracts this from the total count. Returns
false when the loop should exit.
- anyint @llvm.loop_decrement_reg(anyint, anyint)
Takes the number of elements remaining to be processed as well as
the maximum numbe of elements processed in an iteration of the loop
body. Returns the updated number of elements remaining.
