This patch is the first in a small series teaching GVN to optimize unordered loads aggressively. This change just handles block local FRE because that's the simplest thing which lets me test MDA, and the AvailableValue pieces. Somewhat suprisingly, MDA appears fine and only a couple of small changes are needed in GVN.
Once this is in, I'll tackle non-local FRE and PRE. The former looks like a natural extension of this, the later will require a couple of minor changes.

This patch implements a optimization bisect feature, which will allow optimizations to be selectively disabled at compile time in order to track down test failures that are caused by incorrect optimizations.
The bisection is enabled using a new command line option (-opt-bisect-limit). Individual passes that may be skipped call the OptBisect object (via an LLVMContext) to see if they should be skipped based on the bisect limit. A finer level of control (disabling individual transformations) can be managed through an addition OptBisect method, but this is not yet used.
The skip checking in this implementation is based on (and replaces) the skipOptnoneFunction check. Where that check was being called, a new call has been inserted in its place which checks the bisect limit and the optnone attribute. A new function call has been added for module and SCC passes that behaves in a similar way.

As suggested by Chandler in his review comments for D18662, this
follow-on patch renames some variables in GetLoadValueForLoad and
CoerceAvailableValueToLoadType to hopefully make it more obvious
which variables hold value sizes and which hold load/store sizes.
No functional change intended.
llvm-svn: 265687
When GVN wants to re-interpret an already available value in a smaller
type, it needs to right-shift the value on big-endian systems to ensure
the correct bytes are accessed. The shift value is the difference of
the sizes of the two types.
This is correct as long as both types occupy multiples of full bytes.
However, when one of them is a sub-byte type like i1, this no longer
holds true: we still need to shift, but only to access the correct
*byte*. Accessing bits within the byte requires no shift in either
endianness; e.g. an i1 resides in the least-significant bit of its
containing byte on both big- and little-endian systems.
Therefore, the appropriate shift value to be used is the difference of
the *storage* sizes of the two types. This is already handled correctly
in one place where such a shift takes place (GetStoreValueForLoad), but
is incorrect in two other places: GetLoadValueForLoad and
CoerceAvailableValueToLoadType.
This patch changes both places to use the storage size as well.

Because of how this type is used by the ValueTable, it cannot actually

much to my horror, so use variables to fix it in place.
This terrifies me. Both basic-aa and memdep will provide more precise
information when the domtree and/or the loop info is available. Because
of this, if your pass (like GVN) requires domtree, and then queries
memdep or basic-aa, it will get more precise results. If it does this in
the other order, it gets less precise results.
All of the ideas I have for fixing this are, essentially, terrible. Here
I've just caused us to stop having unspecified behavior as different
implementations evaluate the order of these arguments differently. I'm
actually rather glad that they do, or the fragility of memdep and
basic-aa would have gone on unnoticed. I've left comments so we don't
immediately break this again. This should fix bots whose host compilers
evaluate the order of arguments differently from Clang.

This was originally a pointer to support pass managers which didn't use
AnalysisManagers. However, that doesn't realistically come up much and

This is mostly the boring refactoring just like SROA and other complex
transformation passes. There is some trickiness in that GVN's
ValueNumber class requires hand holding to get to compile cleanly. I'm
open to suggestions about a better pattern there, but I tried several
before settling on this. I was trying to balance my desire to sink as
much implementation detail into the source file as possible without
introducing overly many layers of abstraction.
Much like with SROA, the design of this system is made somewhat more
cumbersome by the need to support both pass managers without duplicating
the significant state and logic of the pass. The same compromise is
struck here.
I've also left a FIXME in a doxygen comment as the GVN pass seems to
have pretty woeful documentation within it. I'd like to submit this with
the FIXME and let those more deeply familiar backfill the information
here now that we have a nice place in an interface to put that kind of
documentaiton.

This is a fairly straightforward port to the new pass manager with one
exception. It removes a very questionable use of releaseMemory() in
the old pass to invalidate its caches between runs on a function.
I don't think this is really guaranteed to be safe. I've just used the
more direct port to the new PM to address this by nuking the results
object each time the pass runs. While this could cause some minor malloc
traffic increase, I don't expect the compile time performance hit to be
noticable, and it makes the correctness and other aspects of the pass
much easier to reason about. In some cases, it may make things faster by
making the sets and maps smaller with better locality. Indeed, the
measurements collected by Bruno (thanks!!!) show mostly compile time
improvements.
There is sadly very limited testing at this point as there are only two
tests of memdep, and both rely on GVN. I'll be porting GVN next and that
will exercise this heavily though.

AvailableValue is the part that represents the potential rematerialization. AvailableValueInBlock is simply a pair of an AvailableValue and a BB which we might materialize it in.
This is motivated by http://reviews.llvm.org/D16608. The intent is that we'll have a single function which handles the local case which both local and non-local will use to identify available values. Once that's done, the local case can rematerialize at the use site and the non-local case can do the SSA construction as it does currently.

with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups.
This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for
LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass
manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is
as follows:
- FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation
interface to walk a single query across a range of results from
different alias analyses. Currently this is function-specific as we
always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function.
- AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of
various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several
cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can
be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than
the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be
hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause
a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the
behavior of the prior infrastructure.
- All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the
legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared
result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely
naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the
new pass manager.
- BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more
fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and
loop info that need to be constructed for each function.
All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been
updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and
other pass management code has been updated accordingly.
The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the
available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object.
This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various
passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA
passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded
into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to
be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As
a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on
BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation.
This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally,
most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass
because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes.
The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve
all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up
needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the
aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass.
Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving
that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided
alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA,
GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is
preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is
marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved
set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and
I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve
SCEV itself.
One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were
actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of
a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis
management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many
cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more
obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new
PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias
analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them.
This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and
is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state.
Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old
alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most
significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass
relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the
analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing
functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included
that in this patch merely to keep it smaller.
Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA
documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the
new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in
the new pass manager first.

directly model in the new PM.
This also was an incredibly brittle and expensive update API that was
never fully utilized by all the passes that claimed to preserve AA, nor
could it reasonably have been extended to all of them. Any number of
places add uses of values. If we ever wanted to reliably instrument
this, we would want a callback hook much like we have with ValueHandles,
but doing this for every use addition seems *extremely* expensive in
terms of compile time.
The only user of this update mechanism is GlobalsModRef. The idea of
using this to keep it up to date doesn't really work anyways as its
analysis requires a symmetric analysis of two different memory
locations. It would be very hard to make updates be sufficiently
rigorous to *guarantee* symmetric analysis in this way, and it pretty
certainly isn't true today.
However, folks have been using GMR with this update for a long time and
seem to not be hitting the issues. The reported issue that the update
hook fixes isn't even a problem any more as other changes to
GetUnderlyingObject worked around it, and that issue stemmed from *many*
years ago. As a consequence, a prior patch provided a flag to control
the unsafe behavior of GMR, and this patch removes the update mechanism
that has questionable compile-time tradeoffs and is causing problems
with moving to the new pass manager. Note the lack of test updates --
not one test in tree actually requires this update, even for a contrived
case.
All of this was extensively discussed on the dev list, this patch will
just enact what that discussion decides on. I'm sending it for review in
part to show what I'm planning, and in part to show the *amazing* amount
of work this avoids. Every call to the AA here is something like three
to six indirect function calls, which in the non-LTO pipeline never do
any work! =[

Sometimes an incidentally created instruction can duplicate a Value used
elsewhere. It then often doesn't end up in the leader table. If it's later
removed, we attempt to remove it from the leader table and segfault.
Instead we should just ignore the removal request, which won't cause any
problems. The reverse situation, where the original instruction is replaced by
the new one (which you might think could leave the leader table empty) cannot
occur, because the incidental instruction will never be found in the first
place.

No in-tree alias analysis used this facility, and it was not called in
any particularly rigorous way, so it seems unlikely to be correct.
Note that one of the only stateful AA implementations in-tree,
GlobalsModRef is completely broken currently (and any AA passes like it
are equally broken) because Module AA passes are not effectively
invalidated when a function pass that fails to update the AA stack runs.
Ultimately, it doesn't seem like we know how we want to build stateful
AA, and until then trying to support and maintain correctness for an
untested API is essentially impossible. To that end, I'm planning to rip
out all of the update API. It can return if and when we need it and know
how to build it on top of the new pass manager and as part of *tested*
stateful AA implementations in the tree.

Summary:
A side effect of this change is that it IRBuilder now automatically
created debug info locations for new instructions, which is the
same as debug location of insertion point. This is fine for the
functions in questions (GetStoreValueForLoad and
GetMemInstValueForLoad), as they are used in two situations:
* GVN::processLoad, which tries to eliminate a load. In this case
new instructions would have the same debug location as the load they
eventually replace;
* MaterializeAdjustedValue, which adds new instructions to the end
of the basic blocks, which could later be used to replace the load
definition. In this case we don't yet know the way the load would
be eventually replaced (either by assembling the precomputed values
via PHI, or by using them directly), so just using the basic block
strategy seems to be reasonable. There is also a special case
in the code that *would* adjust the location of the last
instruction replacing the load definition to the location of the
load.

Determining proper debug locations for instructions created in
PHITransAddr is tricky. We use a simple approach here and simply copy
debug locations from instructions computing load address to
"corresponding" instructions re-creating the address computation
in predecessor basic blocks.
This may not always be correct, given all the rearrangement and
simplification going on, and debug locations may jump around a lot,
as the basic blocks we copy locations between may be very far from
each other.
Still, this would work good in most simple cases (e.g. when chain
of address computing instruction is short, or our mapping turns out
to be 1-to-1), and we desire to have *some* reasonable debug locations
associated with newly inserted instructions.

This patch extends EarlyCSE to take advantage of the information that a controlling branch gives us about the value of a Value within this and dominated basic blocks. If the current block has a single predecessor with a controlling branch, we can infer what the branch condition must have been to execute this block. The actual change to support this is downright simple because EarlyCSE's existing scoped hash table logic deals with most of the complexity around merging.
The patch actually implements two optimizations.
1) The first is analogous to JumpThreading in that it enables EarlyCSE's CSE handling to fold branches which are exactly redundant due to a previous branch to branches on constants. (It doesn't actually replace the branch or change the CFG.) This is pretty clearly a win since it enables substantial CFG simplification before we start trying to inline.
2) The second is analogous to CVP in that it exploits the knowledge gained to replace dominated *uses* of the original value. EarlyCSE does not otherwise reason about specific uses, so this is the more arguable one. It does enable further simplication and constant folding within the rest of the visit by EarlyCSE.
In both cases, the added code only handles the easy dominance based case of each optimization. The general case is deferred to the existing passes.

This patch is not exactly NFC as for instance some places were passing

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

Since I'm about to need one more property to be passed down through the infrastructure - I need to know a query instruction is non-volatile in an inner helper - fix the interface once and for all.
I also added some assertions and behaviour clarifications around volatile and ordered field accesses. At the moment, this is mostly to document expected behaviour. The only non-standard instructions which can currently reach this are atomic, but unordered, loads and stores. Neither ordered or volatile accesses can reach here.
The call in GVN is protected by an isSimple check when it first considers the load. The calls in MemDepPrinter are protected by isUnordered checks. Both utilities also check isVolatile for loads and stores.

a cache of assumptions for a single function, and an immutable pass that
manages those caches.
The motivation for this change is two fold. Immutable analyses are
really hacks around the current pass manager design and don't exist in
the new design. This is usually OK, but it requires that the core logic
of an immutable pass be reasonably partitioned off from the pass logic.
This change does precisely that. As a consequence it also paves the way
for the *many* utility functions that deal in the assumptions to live in
both pass manager worlds by creating an separate non-pass object with
its own independent API that they all rely on. Now, the only bits of the
system that deal with the actual pass mechanics are those that actually
need to deal with the pass mechanics.
Once this separation is made, several simplifications become pretty
obvious in the assumption cache itself. Rather than using a set and
callback value handles, it can just be a vector of weak value handles.
The callers can easily skip the handles that are null, and eventually we
can wrap all of this up behind a filter iterator.
For now, this adds boiler plate to the various passes, but this kind of
boiler plate will end up making it possible to port these passes to the
new pass manager, and so it will end up factored away pretty reasonably.

doing Load PRE"
This commit updates the failing test in
Analysis/TypeBasedAliasAnalysis/gvn-nonlocal-type-mismatch.ll
The failing test is sensitive to the order in which we process loads. This
version turns on the RPO traversal instead of the while DT traversal in GVN.
The new test code is functionally same just the order of loads that are
eliminated is swapped.
This new version also fixes an issue where GVN splits a critical edge and
potentially invalidate the RPO/DT iterator.

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).

This commit adds scoped noalias metadata. The primary motivations for this
feature are:
1. To preserve noalias function attribute information when inlining
2. To provide the ability to model block-scope C99 restrict pointers
Neither of these two abilities are added here, only the necessary
infrastructure. In fact, there should be no change to existing functionality,
only the addition of new features. The logic that converts noalias function
parameters into this metadata during inlining will come in a follow-up commit.
What is added here is the ability to generally specify noalias memory-access
sets. Regarding the metadata, alias-analysis scopes are defined similar to TBAA
nodes:
!scope0 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope of foo()" }
!scope1 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 1", metadata !scope0 }
!scope2 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2", metadata !scope0 }
!scope3 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2.1", metadata !scope2 }
!scope4 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2.2", metadata !scope2 }
Loads and stores can be tagged with an alias-analysis scope, and also, with a
noalias tag for a specific scope:
... = load %ptr1, !alias.scope !{ !scope1 }
... = load %ptr2, !alias.scope !{ !scope1, !scope2 }, !noalias !{ !scope1 }
When evaluating an aliasing query, if one of the instructions is associated
with an alias.scope id that is identical to the noalias scope associated with
the other instruction, or is a descendant (in the scope hierarchy) of the
noalias scope associated with the other instruction, then the two memory
accesses are assumed not to alias.
Note that is the first element of the scope metadata is a string, then it can
be combined accross functions and translation units. The string can be replaced
by a self-reference to create globally unqiue scope identifiers.
[Note: This overview is slightly stylized, since the metadata nodes really need
to just be numbers (!0 instead of !scope0), and the scope lists are also global
unnamed metadata.]
Existing noalias metadata in a callee is "cloned" for use by the inlined code.
This is necessary because the aliasing scopes are unique to each call site
(because of possible control dependencies on the aliasing properties). For
example, consider a function: foo(noalias a, noalias b) { *a = *b; } that gets
inlined into bar() { ... if (...) foo(a1, b1); ... if (...) foo(a2, b2); } --
now just because we know that a1 does not alias with b1 at the first call site,
and a2 does not alias with b2 at the second call site, we cannot let inlining
these functons have the metadata imply that a1 does not alias with b2.
llvm-svn: 213864
In order to enable the preservation of noalias function parameter information
after inlining, and the representation of block-level __restrict__ pointer
information (etc.), additional kinds of aliasing metadata will be introduced.
This metadata needs to be carried around in AliasAnalysis::Location objects
(and MMOs at the SDAG level), and so we need to generalize the current scheme
(which is hard-coded to just one TBAA MDNode*).
This commit introduces only the necessary refactoring to allow for the
introduction of other aliasing metadata types, but does not actually introduce
any (that will come in a follow-up commit). What it does introduce is a new
AAMDNodes structure to hold all of the aliasing metadata nodes associated with
a particular memory-accessing instruction, and uses that structure instead of
the raw MDNode* in AliasAnalysis::Location, etc.
No functionality change intended.
llvm-svn: 213859
Summary: This patch introduces two new iterator ranges and updates existing code to use it. No functional change intended.

Enable value forwarding for loads from `calloc()` without an intervening
store.
This change extends GVN to handle the following case:
%1 = tail call noalias i8* @calloc(i64 1, i64 4)
%2 = bitcast i8* %1 to i32*
; This load is trivially constant zero
%3 = load i32* %2, align 4
This is analogous to the handling for `malloc()` in the same places.
`malloc()` returns `undef`; `calloc()` returns a zero value. Note that
it is correct to return zero even for out of bounds GEPs since the
result of such a GEP would be undefined.

This one is tricky for two reasons. We again have a couple of passes

name macros with the DEBUG_TYPE.
Also, InstCombine contains headers that need DEBUG_TYPE, so now those
headers #define and #undef DEBUG_TYPE around their code, leaving them
well formed modular headers. Fixing these headers was a large motivation
for all of these changes, as "leaky" macros of this form are hard on the

After r203553 overflow intrinsics and their non-intrinsic (normal)
instruction get hashed to the same value. This patch prevents PRE from
moving an instruction into a predecessor block, and trying to add a phi
node that gets two different types (the intrinsic result and the
non-intrinsic result), resulting in a failing assert.
llvm-svn: 203574
When an overflow intrinsic is followed by a non-overflow instruction,
replace the latter with an extract. For example:
%sadd = tail call { i32, i1 } @llvm.sadd.with.overflow.i32(i32 %a, i32 %b)
%sadd3 = add i32 %a, %b
Here the add statement will be replaced by an extract.
When an overflow intrinsic follows a non-overflow instruction, a clone
of the intrinsic is inserted before the normal instruction, which makes
it the same as the previous case. Subsequent runs of GVN can then clean
up the duplicate instructions and insert the extract.
This fixes PR8817.
llvm-svn: 203553
This requires a number of steps.
1) Move value_use_iterator into the Value class as an implementation
detail
2) Change it to actually be a *Use* iterator rather than a *User*
iterator.
3) Add an adaptor which is a User iterator that always looks through the
Use to the User.
4) Wrap these in Value::use_iterator and Value::user_iterator typedefs.
5) Add the range adaptors as Value::uses() and Value::users().
6) Update *all* of the callers to correctly distinguish between whether
they wanted a use_iterator (and to explicitly dig out the User when
needed), or a user_iterator which makes the Use itself totally
opaque.
Because #6 requires churning essentially everything that walked the
Use-Def chains, I went ahead and added all of the range adaptors and
switched them to range-based loops where appropriate. Also because the
renaming requires at least churning every line of code, it didn't make
any sense to split these up into multiple commits -- all of which would
touch all of the same lies of code.
The result is still not quite optimal. The Value::use_iterator is a nice
regular iterator, but Value::user_iterator is an iterator over User*s
rather than over the User objects themselves. As a consequence, it fits
a bit awkwardly into the range-based world and it has the weird
extra-dereferencing 'operator->' that so many of our iterators have.
I think this could be fixed by providing something which transforms
a range of T&s into a range of T*s, but that *can* be separated into
another patch, and it isn't yet 100% clear whether this is the right
move.
However, this change gets us most of the benefit and cleans up
a substantial amount of code around Use and User. =]

This removes it from any of the virtual mess of the pass interfaces and
lets it derive cleanly from the DominatorTreeBase<> template. In turn,
tons of boilerplate interface can be nuked and it turns into a very
straightforward extension of the base DominatorTree interface.
The old analysis pass is now a simple wrapper. The names and style of
this split should match the split between CallGraph and
CallGraphWrapperPass. All of the users of DominatorTree have been
updated to match using many of the same tricks as with CallGraph. The
goal is that the common type remains the resulting DominatorTree rather
than the pass. This will make subsequent work toward the new pass
manager significantly easier.
Also in numerous places things became cleaner because I switched from
re-running the pass (!!! mid way through some other passes run!!!) to

doesn't make any sense to have the headers in Analysis.
Long term, I think there is going to be a much better way to divide
these matters. The dominators code should be fully separated into the
abstract graph algorithm and have that put in Support where it becomes
obvious that evn Clang's CFGBlock's can use it. Then the verifier can
manually construct dominance information from the Support-driven
interface while the Analysis library can provide a pass which both
caches, reconstructs, and supports a nice update API.

The symptom is that an assertion is triggered. The assertion was added by
me to detect the situation when value is propagated from dead blocks.
(We can certainly get rid of assertion; it is safe to do so, because propagating
value from dead block to alive join node is certainly ok.)
The root cause of this bug is : edge-splitting is conducted on the fly,
the edge being split could be a dead edge, therefore the block that
split the critial edge needs to be flagged "dead" as well.
There are 3 ways to fix this bug:
1) Get rid of the assertion as I mentioned eariler
2) When an dead edge is split, flag the inserted block "dead".
3) proactively split the critical edges connecting dead and live blocks when
new dead blocks are revealed.
This fix go for 3) with additional 2 LOC.
Testing case was added by Rafael the other day.

The problem of r191017 is that when GVN fabricate a val-number for a dead instruction (in order

llvm-svn: 191118
This is how it ignores the dead code:
1) When a dead branch target, say block B, is identified, all the
blocks dominated by B is dead as well.
2) The PHIs of those blocks in dominance-frontier(B) is updated such
that the operands corresponding to dead predecessors are replaced
by "UndefVal".
Using lattice's jargon, the "UndefVal" is the "Top" in essence.
Phi node like this "phi(v1 bb1, undef xx)" will be optimized into
"v1" if v1 is constant, or v1 is an instruction which dominate this
PHI node.
3) When analyzing the availability of a load L, all dead mem-ops which
L depends on disguise as a load which evaluate exactly same value as L.
4) The dead mem-ops will be materialized as "UndefVal" during code motion.

Actually it took me couple of hours trying to make sense of them and
only to find they are dead code. I guess the original author used
"allSingleSucc" to indicate if there are any critial edge emanating

in the presence of these critical edges; but later on he/she changed mind
and decided to perform edge-splitting first.

This disables malloc-specific optimization when -fno-builtin (or -ffreestanding)
is specified. This has been a problem for a long time but became more severe
with the recent memory builtin improvements.
Since the memory builtin functions are used everywhere, this required passing
TLI in many places. This means that functions that now have an optional TLI

mallocs anymore if the TLI argument is missing. I've updated most passes to do

leader table. That's because it wasn't expecting instructions to turn up as
leader for a value number that is not its own, but equality propagation could
create this situation. One solution is to have the leader table use a WeakVH
but this slows down GVN by about 5%. Instead just have equality propagation not
add instructions to the leader table, only constants and arguments. In theory
this might cause GVN to run more (each time it changes something it runs again)

Implemented CaseIterator and it solves almost all described issues: we don't need to mix operand/case/successor indexing anymore. Base iterator class is implemented as a template since it may be initialized either from "const SwitchInst*" or from "SwitchInst*".
ConstCaseIt is just a read-only iterator.
CaseIt is read-write iterator; it allows to change case successor and case value.
Usage of iterator allows totally remove resolveXXXX methods. All indexing convertions done automatically inside the iterator's getters.
Main way of iterator usage looks like this:
SwitchInst *SI = ... // intialize it somehow
for (SwitchInst::CaseIt i = SI->caseBegin(), e = SI->caseEnd(); i != e; ++i) {
BasicBlock *BB = i.getCaseSuccessor();
ConstantInt *V = i.getCaseValue();
// Do something.
}
If you want to convert case number to TerminatorInst successor index, just use getSuccessorIndex iterator's method.
If you want initialize iterator from TerminatorInst successor index, use CaseIt::fromSuccessorIndex(...) method.

This implicitly fixes a nasty bug in the GVN hashing (that thankfully
could only manifest as a performance bug): actually include the opcode
in the hash. The old code started the hash off with the opcode, but then
overwrote it with the type pointer.
Since this is likely to be pretty hot (GVN being already pretty
expensive) I've included a micro-optimization to just not bother with
the varargs hashing if they aren't present. I can't measure any change
in GVN performance due to this, even with a big test case like Duncan's
sqlite one. Everything I see is in the noise floor. That said, this
closes a loop hole for a potential scaling problem due to collisions if
the opcode were the differentiating aspect of the expression.

logic by half: isOnlyReachableViaThisEdge was trying to be clever and
handle the case of a branch to a basic block which is contained in a

GVN's position in the pass pipeline: all loops have preheaders at this
point, which means it is enough for isOnlyReachableViaThisEdge to check
that Dst has only one predecessor. (I checked this theoretical argument
by running over the entire nightly testsuite, and indeed it is so!).

The purpose of refactoring is to hide operand roles from SwitchInst user (programmer). If you want to play with operands directly, probably you will need lower level methods than SwitchInst ones (TerminatorInst or may be User). After this patch we can reorganize SwitchInst operands and successors as we want.
What was done:
1. Changed semantics of index inside the getCaseValue method:
getCaseValue(0) means "get first case", not a condition. Use getCondition() if you want to resolve the condition. I propose don't mix SwitchInst case indexing with low level indexing (TI successors indexing, User's operands indexing), since it may be dangerous.
2. By the same reason findCaseValue(ConstantInt*) returns actual number of case value. 0 means first case, not default. If there is no case with given value, ErrorIndex will returned.
3. Added getCaseSuccessor method. I propose to avoid usage of TerminatorInst::getSuccessor if you want to resolve case successor BB. Use getCaseSuccessor instead, since internal SwitchInst organization of operands/successors is hidden and may be changed in any moment.
4. Added resolveSuccessorIndex and resolveCaseIndex. The main purpose of these methods is to see how case successors are really mapped in TerminatorInst.
4.1 "resolveSuccessorIndex" was created if you need to level down from SwitchInst to TerminatorInst. It returns TerminatorInst's successor index for given case successor.
4.2 "resolveCaseIndex" converts low level successors index to case index that curresponds to the given successor.

"%x" with "true" in places only reachable via the %if_true arm, and
with "false" in places only reachable via the %if_false arm. Except
that actually it doesn't: if value numbering shows that %y is equal
to %x then, yes, %y will be turned into true/false in this way, but
any occurrences of %x itself are not transformed. Fix this. What's
more, it's often the case that %x is an equality comparison such as
"%x = icmp eq %A, 0", in which case every occurrence of %A that is
only reachable via the %if_true arm can be replaced with 0. Implement
this and a few other variations on this theme. This reduces the number
of lines of LLVM IR in "GCC as one big file" by 0.2%. It has a bigger
impact on Ada code, typically reducing the number of lines of bitcode
by around 0.4% by removing repeated compiler generated checks. Passes
the LLVM nightly testsuite and the Ada ACATS testsuite.

it's OK for the false/true destination to have multiple
predecessors as long as the extra ones are dominated by
the branch destination.

PRE needs the landing pads to have their critical edges split. Doing this for a
landing pad is non-trivial. Abandon the attempt to perform PRE when we come
across a landing pad. (Reviewed by Owen!)

Change various bits of code to make better use of the existing PHINode
API, to insulate them from forthcoming changes in how PHINodes store
their operands.
