This allows later passes (in particular InstCombine) to optimize more
cases.
One that's important to us is `memcmp(p, q, constant) < 0` and memcmp(p, q, constant) > 0.
llvm-svn: 364412
Summary:
Right now, when we encounter a string equality check,
e.g. `if (memcmp(a, b, s) == 0)`, we try to expand to a comparison if `s` is a
small compile-time constant, and fall back on calling `memcmp()` else.
This is sub-optimal because memcmp has to compute much more than
equality.
This patch replaces `memcmp(a, b, s) == 0` by `bcmp(a, b, s) == 0` on platforms
that support `bcmp`.
`bcmp` can be made much more efficient than `memcmp` because equality
compare is trivially parallel while lexicographic ordering has a chain
dependency.

This patch enables combining integer bitcasts of integer build vectors when the new scalar type is legal. I've avoided floating point because the implementation bitcasts float to int along the way and we would need to check the intermediate types for legality

This allows expanding {7,11,13,14,15,21,22,23,25,26,27,28,29,30,31}-byte memcmp
in just two loads on X86. These were previously calling memcmp.

We're trading branch and compares for loads and logic ops.
This makes the code smaller and hopefully faster in most cases.
The 24-byte test shows an interesting construct: we load the trailing scalar
elements into vector registers and generate the same pcmpeq+movmsk code that
we expected for a pair of full vector elements (see the 32- and 64-byte tests).

- Targets that want to support memcmp expansions now return the list of
supported load sizes.
- Expansion codegen does not assume that all power-of-two load sizes
smaller than the max load size are valid. For examples, this is not the
case for x86(32bit)+sse2.
Fixes PR34887.

Compute the actual decomposition only after deciding whether to expand
of not. Else, it's easy to make the compiler OOM with:
`memcpy(dst, src, 0xffffffffffffffff);`, which typically happens if
someone mistakenly passes a negative value. Add a test.

The previous rev (r310208) failed to account for overflow when subtracting the
constants to see if they're suitable for shift/lea. This version add a check
for that and more test were added in r310490.
We can convert any select-of-constants to math ops:

For this patch, I'm enhancing an existing x86 transform that uses fake multiplies
(they always become shl/lea) to avoid cmov or branching. The current code misses
cases where we have a negative constant and a positive constant, so this is just
trying to plug that hole.
The DAGCombiner diff prevents us from hitting a terrible inefficiency: we can start
with a select in IR, create a select DAG node, convert it into a sext, convert it
back into a select, and then lower it to sext machine code.
Some notes about the test diffs:
1. 2010-08-04-MaskedSignedCompare.ll - We were creating control flow that didn't exist in the IR.
2. memcmp.ll - Choose -1 or 1 is the case that got me looking at this again. We could avoid the
push/pop in some cases if we used 'movzbl %al' instead of an xor on a different reg? That's a
post-DAG problem though.
3. mul-constant-result.ll - The trade-off between sbb+not vs. setne+neg could be addressed if
that's a regression, but those would always be nearly equivalent.
4. pr22338.ll and sext-i1.ll - These tests have undef operands, so we don't actually care about these diffs.
5. sbb.ll - This shows a win for what is likely a common case: choose -1 or 0.
6. select.ll - There's another borderline case here: cmp+sbb+or vs. test+set+lea? Also, sbb+not vs. setae+neg shows up again.
7. select_const.ll - These are motivating cases for the enhancement; replace cmov with cheaper ops.
Assembly differences between movzbl and xor to avoid a partial reg stall are caused later by the X86 Fixup SetCC pass.

As noted in the code comment, transforming this in the other direction might require
a separate transform here in CGP given the block-at-a-time DAG constraint.
Besides that theoretical motivation, there are 2 practical motivations for the
subtract-of-cmps form:
1. The codegen for both x86 and PPC is better for this IR (though PPC could be better still).
There is discussion about canonicalizing IR to the select form
( http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-July/114885.html ),
so we probably need to add DAG transforms for those patterns anyway, but this improves the
memcmp output without waiting for that step.
2. If we allow vector-sized chunks for the load and compare, x86 is better prepared to convert
that to optimal code when using subtract-of-cmps, so another prerequisite patch is avoided
if we choose to enable that.

D35067/rL308322 attempted to support up to 4 load pairs for memcmp inlining which resulted in regressions for some optimized libc memcmp implementations (PR33914).
Until we can match these more optimal cases, this patch reduces the memcmp expansion to a maximum of 2 load pairs (which matches what we do for -Os).
This patch should be considered for the 5.0.0 release branch as well

It should be a win to avoid going out to the system lib for all small memcmp() calls using scalar ops. For x86 32-bit, this means most everything up to 16 bytes. For 64-bit, that doubles because we can do 8-byte loads.
Notes:
Reduced from 4 to 2 loads for -Os behavior, which might not be optimal in all cases. It's effectively a question of how much do we trust the system implementation. Linux and macOS (and Windows I assume, but did not test) have optimized memcmp() code for x86, so it's probably not bad either way? PPC is using 8/4 for defaults on these. We do not expand at all for -Oz.
There are still potential improvements to make for the CGP expansion IR and/or lowering such as avoiding select-of-constants (D34904) and not doing zexts to the max load type before doing a compare.
We have special-case SSE/AVX codegen for (memcmp(x, y, 16/32) == 0) that will no longer be produced after this patch. I've shown the experimental justification for that change in PR33329:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33329#c12
TLDR: While the vector code is a likely winner, we can't guarantee that it's a winner in all cases on all CPUs, so I'm willing to sacrifice it for the greater good of expanding all small memcmp(). If we want to resurrect that codegen, it can be done by adjusting the CGP params or poking a hole to let those fall-through the CGP expansion.

As discussed by @spatel on D35067:
"I added the cmov attribute to the 32-bit codegen test because it removes some noise for that file. I think the intent for the SSE vs no-SSE runs is to show the potential difference for the 16 and 32 byte cases rather than the lack of cmov (which has been available for all CPUs since SSE1, so that's why it shows up automatically with -mattr=sse2)."
llvm-svn: 308309
As noted in D34071, there are some IR optimization opportunities that could be
handled by normal IR passes if this expansion wasn't happening so late in CGP.
Regardless of that, it seems wasteful to knowingly produce suboptimal IR here,
so I'm proposing this change:
%s = sub i32 %x, %y
%r = icmp ne %s, 0
=>
%r = icmp ne %x, %y
Changing the predicate to 'eq' mimics what InstCombine would do, so that's just
an efficiency improvement if we decide this expansion should happen sooner.
The fact that the PowerPC backend doesn't eliminate the 'subf.' might be
something for PPC folks to investigate separately.

There are a couple of potential improvements as seen in the IR and asm:
1. We're unnecessarily extending to a larger type to compare values.
2. The codegen for (select cond, 1, -1) could avoid a cmov.
(or we could change the order of the compares, so we have a select with 0 operand)
llvm-svn: 305802
We want to check each test on each target, so we need another prefix
when SSE and AVX diverge (as they will if we handle 32-byte and higher).

This is the payoff for D31156 - if a target has efficient comparison instructions for vector-sized equality,
we can replace memcmp calls with inline code that is both smaller and faster.

This re-applies commit r292189, reverted in r292191.
SelectionDAGBuilder recognizes libfuncs using some homegrown
parameter type-checking.
Use TLI instead, removing another heap of redundant code.
This isn't strictly NFC, as the SDAG code was too lax.
Concretely, this means changes are required to a few tests:
- calling a non-variadic function via a variadic prototype isn't OK;
it just happens to work on x86_64 (but not on, e.g., aarch64).
- mempcpy has a size_t parameter; the SDAG code accepts any integer
type, which meant using i32 on x86_64 worked.
- a handful of SystemZ tests check the SDAG support for lax prototype
checking: Ulrich agrees on removing them.
I don't think it's worth supporting any of these (IMO) invalid
testcases. Instead, fix them to be more meaningful.
