The **IsGuaranteedLoopInvariant** function is making sure to check if the
incoming pointer is guaranteed to be loop invariant, therefore I think
the case where the pointer is defined in the entry block of a function
automatically guarantees the pointer to be loop invariant, as the entry
block of a function cannot have predecessors or be part of a loop.
I implemented this small patch and tested it using
**ninja check-llvm-unit** and **ninja check-llvm**. I added a contained test
file that shows the problem and used **opt -O3 -debug** on it to make sure
the case is not currently handled (in fact the debug log is showing that
the DSE pass is bailing out when testing if the killer store is able to
clobber the dead store).

MSSA DSE starts at a killing store, finds an earlier store and
then checks that the earlier store is not read along any paths
(without being killed first). However, it uses the memory location
of the killing store for that, not the earlier store that we're
attempting to eliminate.
This has a number of problems:
* Mismatches between what BasicAA considers aliasing and what DSE
considers an overwrite (even though both are correct in isolation)
can result in miscompiles. This is PR48279, which D92045 tries to
fix in a different way. The problem is that we're using a location
from a store that is potentially not executed and thus may be UB,
in which case analysis results can be arbitrary.
* Metadata on the killing store may be used to determine aliasing,
but there is no guarantee that the metadata is valid, as the specific
killing store may not be executed. Using the metadata on the earlier
store is valid (it is the store we're removing, so on any execution
where its removal may be observed, it must be executed).
* The location is imprecise. For full overwrites the killing store
will always have a location that is larger or equal than the earlier
access location, so it's beneficial to use the earlier access
location. This is not the case for partial overwrites, in which
case either location might be smaller. There is some room for
improvement here.
Using the earlier access location means that we can no longer cache
which accesses are read for a given killing store, as we may be
querying different locations. However, it turns out that simply
dropping the cache has no notable impact on compile-time.

Currently in some places we use signed type to represent size of an access and put explicit casts from unsigned to signed.
For example: int64_t EarlierSize = int64_t(Loc.Size.getValue());
Even though it doesn't loos bits (immidiatly) it may overflow and we end up with negative size. Potentially that cause later code to work incorrectly. A simple expample is a check that size is not negative.
I think it would be safer and clearer if we use unsigned type for the size and handle it appropriately.

Currently, we have some confusion in the codebase regarding the
meaning of LocationSize::unknown(): Some parts (including most of
BasicAA) assume that LocationSize::unknown() only allows accesses
after the base pointer. Some parts (various callers of AA) assume
that LocationSize::unknown() allows accesses both before and after
the base pointer (but within the underlying object).
This patch splits up LocationSize::unknown() into
LocationSize::afterPointer() and LocationSize::beforeOrAfterPointer()
to make this completely unambiguous. I tried my best to determine
which one is appropriate for all the existing uses.
The test changes in cs-cs.ll in particular illustrate a previously
clearly incorrect AA result: We were effectively assuming that
argmemonly functions were only allowed to access their arguments
after the passed pointer, but not before it. I'm pretty sure that
this was not intentional, and it's certainly not specified by
LangRef that way.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D91649
When constructing a MemoryLocation by hand, require that a
LocationSize is explicitly specified. D91649 will split up
LocationSize::unknown() into two different states, and callers
should make an explicit choice regarding the kind of MemoryLocation
they want to have.
This patch updates DSE + MemorySSA to use the same check as the legacy
implementation to determine if a location is killed by a free call.
This changes the existing behavior so that a free does not kill
locations before the start of the freed pointer.
This should fix PR48036.
Currently isOverwrite returns OW_MaybePartial even for accesss known not to overlap. This is not a big problem for legacy implementation (since isPartialOverwrite follows isOverwrite and clarifies the result). Contrary SSA based version does a lot of work to later find out that accesses don't overlap. Besides negative impact on compile time we quickly reach MemorySSAPartialStoreLimit and miss optimization opportunities.
Note: In fact, I think it would be cleaner implementation if isOverwrite returned fully clarified result in the first place whithout need to call isPartialOverwrite. This can be done as a follow up. What do you think?

isNoopIntrinsic returns true for some intrinsics that are modeled in

After investigation by @asbirlea, the issue that caused the

than a problem with the compiler.
This patch enables MemorySSA DSE again.

There appears to be a mis-compile with MemorySSA-backed DSE in
combination with llvm.lifetime.end. It currently appears like
DSE is doing the right thing and the llvm.lifetime.end markers
are incorrect. The reverted patch uncovers the mis-compile.
This patch temporarily switches back to the legacy DSE
implementation, while we investigate.
This reverts commit 9d172c8e9c.
When looking for memory defs killed by memory terminators the code
currently incorrectly ignores the size argument of llvm.lifetime.end.
This patch updates the code to use isMemTerminator and updates
isMemTerminator to use isOverwrite() to make sure locations that are
outside the range marked as dead by llvm.lifetime.end are not
considered. Note that isOverwrite is only used for llvm.lifetime.end,
because free-like functions make the whole underlying object dead.
This switches to using DSE + MemorySSA by default again, after
fixing the issues reported after the first commit.
Notable fixes fc82006331, a0017c2bc2.
This reverts commit 3a59628f3c.
AliasAnalysis/MemoryLocation does not account for loops. Two
MemoryLocation can be must-overwrite, even if the first one writes
multiple locations in a loop.
This patch prevents removing such stores, by only considering candidates
that are known to be loop invariant, or executed in the same BB.
Currently the invariant check is quite conservative and only considers
Alloca and Alloca-like instructions and arguments as invariant base pointers.
It also considers GEPs with all constant indices and invariant bases as
invariant.
This can be improved in the future, but the current implementation has
only minor impact on the total number of stores eliminated (25903 vs
26047 for the baseline). There are some 2-10% swings for some individual
benchmarks. In roughly half of the cases, the number of stores removed
increases actually, because we skip candidates that are unlikely to be
valid candidates early.
When deleting stores at the end of a function, we have to do PHI
translation, otherwise we might miss reads in different iterations of a
loop. See multiblock-loop-carried-dependence.ll for details.
This fixes a mis-compile and surprisingly also increases the number of
eliminated stores from 26047 to 26572 for MultiSource/SPEC2000/SPEC2006
on X86 with -O3 -flto. This is most likely because we save budget by not
exploring through MemoryPhis, which are less likely to result in valid
candidates for elimination.
The issue was reported post-commit for fb109c42d9.
The tests have been updated and I plan to move them from the MSSA
directory up.
Some end-to-end tests needed small adjustments. One difference to the
legacy DSE is that legacy DSE also deletes trivially dead instructions
that are unrelated to memory operations. Because MemorySSA-backed DSE
just walks the MemorySSA, we only visit/check memory instructions. But
removing unrelated dead instructions is not really DSE's job and other
passes will clean up.
One noteworthy change is in llvm/test/Transforms/Coroutines/ArgAddr.ll,
but I think this comes down to legacy DSE not handling instructions that
may throw correctly in that case. To cover this with MemorySSA-backed
DSE, we need an update to llvm.coro.begin to treat it's return value to
belong to the same underlying object as the passed pointer.
There are some minor cases MemorySSA-backed DSE currently misses, e.g. related
to atomic operations, but I think those can be implemented after the switch.
This has been discussed on llvm-dev:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2020-August/144417.html
For the MultiSource/SPEC2000/SPEC2006 the number of eliminated stores
goes from ~17500 (legayc DSE) to ~26300 (MemorySSA-backed). More numbers

This changes getDomMemoryDef to check if a Current is a valid
candidate for elimination before checking for reads. Before the change,
we were spending a lot of compile-time in checking for read accesses for
Current that might not even be removable.
This patch flips the logic, so we skip Current if they cannot be
removed before checking all their uses. This is much more efficient in
practice.
It also adds a more aggressive limit for checking partially overlapping
stores. The main problem with overlapping stores is that we do not know
if they will lead to elimination until seeing all of them. This patch
limits adds a new limit for overlapping store candidates, which keeps
the number of modified overlapping stores roughly the same.

Limit elimination of stores at the end of a function to MemoryDefs with

In practice, the case with multiple underlying objects seems not very

this results in a total of 2 more stores being eliminated.
We can always re-visit that in the future.
isWriteAtEndOfFunction needs to check all memory uses of Def, which is
much more expensive than getting the underlying objects in practice.
Switch the call order, as recommended by the TODO, which was added as
per an earlier review.
This shaves off a bit of compile-time.
Currently the code does not account for the fact that getDomMemoryDef
can be called with ScanLimit == 0, if we reached the limit while
processing an earlier access. Also tighten the check a bit more and bump
the scan limit now that it is handled properly.
In some cases, this brings a 2x speedup in terms of compile-time.

Currently we stop exploring candidates too early in some cases.
In particular, we can continue checking the defining accesses of
non-removable MemoryDefs and defs without analyzable write location
(read clobbers are already ruled out using MemorySSA at this point).
As we traverse the CFG backwards, we could end up reaching unreachable
blocks. For unreachable blocks, we won't have computed post order
numbers and because DomAccess is reachable, unreachable blocks cannot be
on any path from it.
This fixes a crash with unreachable blocks.
Port partial constant store merging logic to MemorySSA backed DSE. The
heavy lifting is done by the existing helper function. It is used in
context where we already ensured that the later instruction can
eliminate the earlier one, if it is a complete overwrite.
isOverwrite expects the later location as first argument and the earlier
result later. The adjusted call is intended to check whether CC
overwrites DefLoc.
This patch relaxes the post-dominance requirement for accesses to
objects visible after the function returns.
Instead of requiring the killing def to post-dominate the access to
eliminate, the set of 'killing blocks' (= blocks that completely
overwrite the original access) is collected.
If all paths from the access to eliminate and an exit block go through a
killing block, the access can be removed.
To check this property, we first get the common post-dominator block for
the killing blocks. If this block does not post-dominate the access
block, there may be a path from DomAccess to an exit block not involving
any killing block.
Otherwise we have to check if there is a path from the DomAccess to the
common post-dominator, that does not contain a killing block. If there
is no such path, we can remove DomAccess. For this check, we start at
the common post-dominator and then traverse the CFG backwards. Paths are
terminated when we hit a killing block or a block that is not executed
between DomAccess and a killing block according to the post-order
numbering (if the post order number of a block is greater than the one
of DomAccess, the block cannot be in in a path starting at DomAccess).

There might be potential to pre-compute some of the information of which
blocks are on the path to an exit for each block, but the overall
benefit might be comparatively small.
On the set of benchmarks, 15738 times out of 20322 we reach the
CFG check, the CFG check is successful. The total number of iterations
in the CFG check is 187810, so on average we need less than 10 steps in
the check loop. Bumping the threshold in the loop from 50 to 150 gives a
few small improvements, but I don't think they warrant such a big bump
at the moment. This is all pending further tuning in the future.

Using the existing NumFastStores statistic can be misleading when
comparing the impact of DSE patches.
For example, consider the case where a store gets removed from a
function before it is inlined into another function. A less
powerful DSE might only remove the store from functions it has
been inlined into, which will result in more stores being removed, but
no difference in the actual number of stores after DSE.
The new stat provides the absolute number of stores surviving after
DSE.

This patch slightly improves the formatting of the debug output, adds a
few missing outputs and makes some existing outputs more consistent with
the rest.
We can eliminate MemoryDefs of objects not accessible after the function
returns (e.g. alloca), if there are no reads between the MemoryDef and
any function exits. We can stop traversing paths that completely
overwrite the memory location of the MemoryDef.

callCapturesBefore always returns ModRef , if UseInst isn't a call. As
we only call it if we already know Mod is set, this only destroys the
Must bit for non-calls.
For MemoryPhis, we have to avoid that the MemoryPhi may be executed
before before the access we are currently looking at.
To do this we do a post-order numbering of the basic blocks in the
function and bail out once we reach a MemoryPhi with a larger (or equal)
post-order block number than the current MemoryAccess.
This changes the order in which we visit stores for elimination.
This patch also adds support for exploring multiple paths. We keep a worklist (ToCheck) of memory accesses that might be eliminated by our starting MemoryDef or MemoryPhis for further exploration. For MemoryPhis, we add the incoming values to the worklist, for MemoryDefs we add the defining access.

DSE would mistakenly remove store (2):
a = calloc(n+1)
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
store 1, a[i+1] // (1)
store 0, a[i] // (2)
}
The fix is to do PHI transaltion while looking for clobbering
instructions between the store and the calloc.

Essentially, fold OrderedBasicBlock into BasicBlock, and make it
auto-invalidate the instruction ordering when new instructions are
added. Notably, we don't need to invalidate it when removing
instructions, which is helpful when a pass mostly delete dead
instructions rather than transforming them.
The downside is that Instruction grows from 56 bytes to 64 bytes. The
resulting LLVM code is substantially simpler and automatically handles
invalidation, which makes me think that this is the right speed and size
tradeoff.
The important change is in SymbolTableTraitsImpl.h, where the numbering
is invalidated. Everything else should be straightforward.
We probably want to implement a fancier re-numbering scheme so that
local updates don't invalidate the ordering, but I plan for that to be
future work, maybe for someone else.

This patch adds a first version of a MemorySSA based DSE. It is missing
a lot of features, which will get added as follow-ups, to help to keep
the review manageable.
The patch uses the following general approach: given a MemoryDef, walk
upwards to find clobbering MemoryDefs that may be killed by the
starting def. Then check that there are no uses that may read the
location of the original MemoryDef in between both MemoryDefs. A bit
more concretely:
For all MemoryDefs StartDef:
1. Get the next dominating clobbering MemoryDef (DomAccess) by walking upwards.
2. Check that there no reads between DomAccess and the StartDef by checking
all uses starting at DomAccess and walking until we see StartDef.
3. For each found DomDef, check that:
1. There are no barrier instructions between DomDef and StartDef (like
throws or stores with ordering constraints).
2. StartDef is executed whenever DomDef is executed.
3. StartDef completely overwrites DomDef.
4. Erase DomDef from the function and MemorySSA.
The patch uses a very simple approach to guarantee that no throwing
instructions are between 2 stores: We only allow accesses to stack
objects, access that are in the same basic block if the block does not
contain any throwing instructions or accesses in functions that do
not contain any throwing instructions. This will get lifted later.
Besides adding support for the missing cases, there is plenty of additional
potential for improvements as follow-up work, e.g. the way we visit stores
(could be just a traversal of the MemorySSA, rather than collecting them
up-front), using the alias information discovered during walking to optimize
the MemorySSA.
This is loosely based on D40480 by Dave Green.
