As discussed on PR50183, we already fold to prefer 'select-of-idx' vs 'select-of-gep':
define <4 x i32>* @select0a(<4 x i32>* %a0, i64 %a1, i1 %a2, i64 %a3) {
%gep0 = getelementptr inbounds <4 x i32>, <4 x i32>* %a0, i64 %a1
%gep1 = getelementptr inbounds <4 x i32>, <4 x i32>* %a0, i64 %a3
%sel = select i1 %a2, <4 x i32>* %gep0, <4 x i32>* %gep1
ret <4 x i32>* %sel
}
-->
define <4 x i32>* @select1a(<4 x i32>* %a0, i64 %a1, i1 %a2, i64 %a3) {
%sel = select i1 %a2, i64 %a1, i64 %a3
%gep = getelementptr inbounds <4 x i32>, <4 x i32>* %a0, i64 %sel
ret <4 x i32>* %gep
}
This patch adds basic handling for the 'fallthrough' cases where the gep idx == 0 has been folded away to the base address:
define <4 x i32>* @select0(<4 x i32>* %a0, i64 %a1, i1 %a2) {
%gep = getelementptr inbounds <4 x i32>, <4 x i32>* %a0, i64 %a1
%sel = select i1 %a2, <4 x i32>* %a0, <4 x i32>* %gep
ret <4 x i32>* %sel
}
-->
define <4 x i32>* @select1(<4 x i32>* %a0, i64 %a1, i1 %a2) {
%sel = select i1 %a2, i64 0, i64 %a1
%gep = getelementptr inbounds <4 x i32>, <4 x i32>* %a0, i64 %sel
ret <4 x i32>* %gep
}
Reapplied with a fix for the bpf "-bpf-disable-avoid-speculation" tests
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D105901
Add an IR phase right before main module optimization.
This is to modify IR to restrict certain downward optimizations
in order to generate verifier friendly code.
> prevent certain instcombine optimizations, handling both
in-block/cross-block instcombines.
> avoid speculative code motion if the variable used in
condition is also used in the later blocks.
Internally, a bpf IR builtin
result = __builtin_bpf_passthrough(seq_num, result)
is used to enforce ordering. This builtin is only used
during target independent IR optimizations and it will
be removed at the beginning of target dependent IR
optimizations.
For example, removing the following workaround,
--- a/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/progs/test_sysctl_loop1.c
+++ b/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/progs/test_sysctl_loop1.c
@@ -47,7 +47,7 @@ int sysctl_tcp_mem(struct bpf_sysctl *ctx)
/* a workaround to prevent compiler from generating
* codes verifier cannot handle yet.
*/
- volatile int ret;
+ int ret;
this patch is able to generate code which passed the verifier.
To disable optimization, users need to use "opt" command like below:
clang -target bpf -O2 -S -emit-llvm -Xclang -disable-llvm-passes test.c
// disable icmp serialization
opt -O2 -bpf-disable-serialize-icmp test.ll | llvm-dis > t.ll
// disable avoid-speculation
opt -O2 -bpf-disable-avoid-speculation test.ll | llvm-dis > t.ll
llc t.ll
