Florian Hahn b30f7aeeeb [NewGVN] Mark function as changed if we erase instructions.
Currently eliminateInstructions only returns true if any instruction got
replaced. In the test case for this patch, we eliminate the trivially
dead calls, for which eliminateInstructions not do a replacement and the
function is not marked as changed, which is why the inliner crashes
while traversing the call graph.

Alternatively we could also change eliminateInstructions to return true
in case we mark instructions for deletion, but that's slightly more code
and doing it at the place where the replacement happens seems safer.

Fixes PR37517.

Florian Hahn 236f6feb8f [LoopInterchange] Move preheader creation to transform stage and simplify.
There is no need to create preheaders in the analysis stage, we only
need them when adjusting the branches. Also, the only cases we need to
create our own preheaders is when they have more than 1 predecessors or
PHI nodes (even with only 1 predecessor, we could have an LCSSA phi
node). I have simplified the conditions and added some assertions to be
sure. Because we know the inner and outer loop need to be tightly
nested, it is sufficient to check if the inner loop preheader is the
outer loop header to check if we need to create a new preheader.

Fedor Sergeev 8b6effd969 [SimpleLoopUnswitch] remove a chain of dead blocks at once
Recent change to deleteDeadBlocksFromLoop was not enough to
fix all the problems related to dead blocks after nontrivial
unswitching of switches.

We need to delete all the dead blocks that were created during
unswitching, otherwise we will keep having problems with phi's
or dead blocks.

This change removes all the dead blocks that are reachable from the loop,
not trying to track whether these blocks are newly created by unswitching
or not. While not completely correct, we are unlikely to get loose but
reachable dead blocks that do not belong to our loop nest.

It does fix all the failures currently known, in particular PR38778.

Max Kazantsev 2cbba56337 [IndVars] Fix usage of SCEVExpander to not mess with SCEVConstant. PR38674
This patch removes the function `expandSCEVIfNeeded` which behaves not as
it was intended. This function tries to make a lookup for exact existing expansion
and only goes to normal expansion via `expandCodeFor` if this lookup hasn't found
anything. As a result of this, if some instruction above the loop has a `SCEVConstant`
SCEV, this logic will return this instruction when asked for this `SCEVConstant` rather
than return a constant value. This is both non-profitable and in some cases leads to
breach of LCSSA form (as in PR38674).

Whether or not it is possible to break LCSSA with this algorithm and with some
non-constant SCEVs is still in question, this is still being investigated. I wasn't
able to construct such a test so far, so maybe this situation is impossible. If it is,
it will go as a separate fix.

Rather than do it, it is always correct to just invoke `expandCodeFor` unconditionally:
it behaves smarter about insertion points, and as side effect of this it will choose a
constant value for SCEVConstants. For other SCEVs it may end up finding a better insertion
point. So it should not be worse in any case.

NOTE: So far the only known case for which this transform may break LCSSA is mapping
of SCEVConstant to an instruction. However there is a suspicion that the entire algorithm
can compromise LCSSA form for other cases as well (yet not proved).

Sanjay Patel ca36eb4e33 [Reassociate] swap binop operands to increase factoring potential
If we have a pair of binops feeding another pair of binops, rearrange the operands so 
the matching pair are together because that allows easy factorization folds to happen 
in instcombine:
((X << S) & Y) & (Z << S) --> ((X << S) & (Z << S)) & Y (reassociation)

--> ((X & Z) << S) & Y (factorize shift from 'and' ops optimization)

This is part of solving PR37098:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37098

Note that there's an instcombine version of this patch attached there, but we're trying
to make instcombine have less responsibility to improve compile-time efficiency.

For reasons I still don't completely understand, reassociate does this kind of transform
sometimes, but misses everything in my motivating cases.

This patch on its own is gluing an independent cleanup chunk to the end of the existing 
RewriteExprTree() loop. We can build on it and do something stronger to better order the 
full expression tree like D40049. That might be an alternative to the proposal to add a 
separate reassociation pass like D41574.

Teach LICM to hoist stores out of loops when the store writes to a location otherwise unused in the loop, writes a value which is invariant, and is guaranteed to execute if the loop is entered.

Worth noting is that this transformation is partially overlapping with the existing promotion transformation. Reasons this is worthwhile anyway include:
 * For multi-exit loops, this doesn't require duplication of the store.
 * It kicks in for case where we can't prove we exit through a normal exit (i.e. we may throw), but can prove the store executes before that possible side exit.

Chandler Carruth 96fc1de77d [IR] Begin removal of TerminatorInst by removing successor manipulation.
The core get and set routines move to the `Instruction` class. These
routines are only valid to call on instructions which are terminators.

The iterator and *generic* range based access move to `CFG.h` where all
the other generic successor and predecessor access lives. While moving
the iterator here, simplify it using the iterator utilities LLVM
provides and updates coding style as much as reasonable. The APIs remain
pointer-heavy when they could better use references, and retain the odd
behavior of `operator*` and `operator->` that is common in LLVM
iterators. Adjusting this API, if desired, should be a follow-up step.

Non-generic range iteration is added for the two instructions where
there is an especially easy mechanism and where there was code
attempting to use the range accessor from a specific subclass:
`indirectbr` and `br`. In both cases, the successors are contiguous
operands and can be easily iterated via the operand list.

This is the first major patch in removing the `TerminatorInst` type from
the IR's instruction type hierarchy. This change was discussed in an RFC
here and was pretty clearly positive:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2018-May/123407.html

There will be a series of much more mechanical changes following this
one to complete this move.

Philip Reames c3c23e8cf2 [AST] Remove notion of volatile from alias sets [NFCI]
Volatility is not an aliasing property. We used to model volatile as if it had extremely conservative aliasing implications, but that hasn't been true for several years now. So, it doesn't make sense to be in AliasSet.

It also turns out the code is entirely a noop. Outside of the AST code to update it, there was only one user: load store promotion in LICM. L/S promotion doesn't need the check since it walks all the users of the address anyway. It already checks each load or store via !isUnordered which causes us to bail for volatile accesses. (Look at the lines immediately following the two remove asserts.)

There is the possibility of some small compile time impact here, but the only case which will get noticeably slower is a loop with a large number of loads and stores to the same address where only the last one we inspect is volatile. This is sufficiently rare it's not worth optimizing for..

UseInstrInfo (which defaults to true to keep the current behavior as
default) and a set of helper methods to get metadata/keywords for a
given instruction, if UseInstrInfo is true. The whole thing might need a
better name, to avoid confusion with TargetInstrInfo but I am not sure
what a better name would be.

The current patch threads through InstrInfoQuery to the required
places, which is messier then it would need to be, if
InstructionSimplify and ValueTracking would share the same Query struct.

The reason I added it as a separate struct is that it can be shared
between InstructionSimplify and ValueTracking's query objects. Also,
some places do not need a full query object, just the InstrInfoQuery.

It also updates some interfaces that do not take a Query object, but a
set of optional parameters to take an additional boolean UseInstrInfo.

Anna Thomas 1962621a7e [LICM] Add a diagnostic analysis for identifying alias information
Summary:
Currently, in LICM, we use the alias set tracker to identify if the
instruction (we're interested in hoisting) aliases with instruction that
modifies that memory location.

This patch adds an LICM alias analysis diagnostic tool that checks the
mod ref info of the instruction we are interested in hoisting/sinking,
with every instruction in the loop.  Because of O(N^2) complexity this
is now only a diagnostic tool to show the limitation we have with the
alias set tracker and is OFF by default.

Test cases show the difference with the diagnostic analysis tool, where
we're able to hoist out loads and readonly + argmemonly calls from the
loop, where the alias set tracker analysis is not able to hoist these
instructions out.

Chijun Sima 8b5de48d62 [TailCallElim] Preserve DT and PDT
Summary:
Previously, in the NewPM pipeline, TailCallElim recalculates the DomTree when it modifies any instruction in the Function.
For example,
```
CallInst *CI = dyn_cast<CallInst>(&I);
...
CI->setTailCall();
Modified = true;
...
if (!Modified || ...)
  return PreservedAnalyses::all();
```
After applying this patch, the DomTree only recalculates if needed (plus an extra insertEdge() + an extra deleteEdge() call).

When optimizing SQLite with `-passes="default<O3>"` pipeline of the newPM, the number of DomTree recalculation decreases by 6.2%, the number of nodes visited by DFS decreases by 2.9%. The time used by DomTree will decrease approximately 1%~2.5% after applying the patch.

489264 dom-tree-stats               - Number of nodes visited by DFS -- DomTree
After the patch:

Philip Reames 5937368d4f [LICM] Remove unneccessary safety check to increase sinking effectiveness
This one requires a bit of explaination.  It's not every day you simply delete code to implement an optimization.  :)

The transform in question is sinking an instruction from a loop to the uses in loop exiting blocks.  We know (from LCSSA) that all of the uses outside the loop must be phi nodes, and after predecessor splitting, we know all phi users must have a single operand.  Since the use must be strictly dominated by the def, we know from the definition of dominance/ssa that the exit block must execute along a (non-strict) subset of paths which reach the def.  As a result, duplicating a potentially faulting instruction can not *introduce* a fault that didn't previously exist in the program.  

The full story is that this patch builds on "rL338671: [LICM] Factor out fault legality from canHoistOrSinkInst [NFC]" which pulled this logic out of a common helper routine.  As best I can tell, this check was originally added to the helper function for hoisting legality, later an incorrect fastpath for loads/calls was added, and then the bug was fixed by duplicating the fault safety check in the hoist path.  This left the redundant check in the common code to pessimize sinking for no reason.  I split it out in an NFC, and am not removing the unneccessary check.  I wanted there to be something easy to revert in case I missed something.

Philip Reames 32cb80b9d3 [LICM] Factor out fault legality from canHoistOrSinkInst [NFC]
This method has three callers, each of which wanted distinct handling:
1) Sinking into a loop is moving an instruction known to execute before a loop into the loop.  We don't need to worry about introducing a fault at all in this case.
2) Hoisting from a loop into a preheader already duplicated the check in the caller.
3) Sinking from the loop into an exit block was the only true user of the code within the routine.  For the moment, this has just been lifted into the caller, but up next is examining the logic more carefully.  Whitelisting of loads and calls - while consistent with the previous code - is rather suspicious.  Either way, a behavior change is worthy of it's own patch.

For comparisons with parameters, we can use the ParamState lattice
elements which also provide constant range information. This improves

ValueLatticeElement for all values.

Florian Hahn d95761d9d0 [IPSCCP] Run Solve each time we resolved an undef in a function.
Once we resolved an undef in a function we can run Solve, which could
lead to finding a constant return value for the function, which in turn
could turn undefs into constants in other functions that call it, before
resolving undefs there.

Computationally the amount of work we are doing stays the same, just the
order we process things is slightly different and potentially there are
a few less undefs to resolve.

We are still relying on the order of functions in the IR, which means
depending on the order, we are able to resolve the optimal undef first
or not. For example, if @test1 comes before @testf, we find the constant
return value of @testf too late and we cannot use it while solving
@test1.

This on its own does not lead to more constants removed in the
test-suite, probably because currently we have to be very lucky to visit
applicable functions in the right order.

Maybe we manage to come up with a better way of resolving undefs in more
'profitable' functions first.

Chandler Carruth 47dc3a346e [PM/Unswitch] Fix a collection of closely related issues with trivial
switch unswitching.

The core problem was that the way we handled unswitching trivial exit
edges through the default successor of a switch. For some reason
I thought the right way to do this was to add a block containing
unreachable and point the default successor at this block. In
retrospect, this has an amazing number of problems.

The first issue is the one that this pass has always worked around -- we
have to *detect* such edges and avoid unswitching them again. This
seemed pretty easy really. You juts look for an edge to a block
containing unreachable. However, this pattern is woefully unsound. So
many things can break it. The amazing thing is that I found a test case
where *simple-loop-unswitch itself* breaks this! When we do
a *non-trivial* unswitch of a switch we will end up splitting this exit
edge. The result will be a default successor that is an exit and
terminates in ... a perfectly normal branch. So the first test case that
I started trying to fix is added to the nontrivial test cases. This is
a ridiculous example that did just amazing things previously. With just
unswitch, it would create 10+ copies of this stuff stamped out. But if
you combine it *just right* with a bunch of other passes (like
simplify-cfg, loop rotate, and some LICM) you can get it to do this
infinitely. Or at least, I never got it to finish. =[

This, in turn, uncovered another related issue. When we are manipulating
these switches after doing a trivial unswitch we never correctly updated
PHI nodes to reflect our edits. As soon as I started changing how these
edges were managed, it became obvious there were more issues that
I couldn't realistically leave unaddressed, so I wrote more test cases
around PHI updates here and ensured all of that works now.

And this, in turn, required some adjustment to how we collect and manage
the exit successor when it is the default successor. That showed a clear
bug where we failed to include it in our search for the outer-most loop
reached by an unswitched exit edge. This was actually already tested and
the test case didn't work. I (wrongly) thought that was due to SCEV
failing to analyze the switch. In fact, it was just a simple bug in the
code that skipped the default successor. While changing this, I handled
it correctly and have updated the test to reflect that we now get
precise SCEV analysis of trip counts for the outer loop in one of these
cases.

Manoj Gupta 77eeac3d9e llvm: Add support for "-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks"
Summary:
Support for this option is needed for building Linux kernel.
This is a very frequently requested feature by kernel developers.

More details : https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/4/601

GCC option description for -fdelete-null-pointer-checks:
This Assume that programs cannot safely dereference null pointers,
and that no code or data element resides at address zero.

-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks is the inverse of this implying that
null pointer dereferencing is not undefined.

This feature is implemented in LLVM IR in this CL as the function attribute
"null-pointer-is-valid"="true" in IR (Under review at D47894).
The CL updates several passes that assumed null pointer dereferencing is
undefined to not optimize when the "null-pointer-is-valid"="true"
attribute is present.
