...this is a step in cleaning up our fast-math-flags implementation in IR to better match
the capabilities of both clang's user-visible flags and the backend's flags for SDNode.
As proposed in the above threads, we're replacing the 'UnsafeAlgebra' bit (which had the
'umbrella' meaning that all flags are set) with a new bit that only applies to algebraic
reassociation - 'AllowReassoc'.
We're also adding a bit to allow approximations for library functions called 'ApproxFunc'
(this was initially proposed as 'libm' or similar).
...and we're out of bits. 7 bits ought to be enough for anyone, right? :) FWIW, I did
look at getting this out of SubclassOptionalData via SubclassData (spacious 16-bits),
but that's apparently already used for other purposes. Also, I don't think we can just
add a field to FPMathOperator because Operator is not intended to be instantiated.
We'll defer movement of FMF to another day.
We keep the 'fast' keyword. I thought about removing that, but seeing IR like this:
%f.fast = fadd reassoc nnan ninf nsz arcp contract afn float %op1, %op2
...made me think we want to keep the shortcut synonym.
Finally, this change is binary incompatible with existing IR as seen in the
compatibility tests. This statement:
"Newer releases can ignore features from older releases, but they cannot miscompile
them. For example, if nsw is ever replaced with something else, dropping it would be
a valid way to upgrade the IR."
( http://llvm.org/docs/DeveloperPolicy.html#ir-backwards-compatibility )
...provides the flexibility we want to make this change without requiring a new IR
version. Ie, we're not loosening the FP strictness of existing IR. At worst, we will
fail to optimize some previously 'fast' code because it's no longer recognized as
'fast'. This should get fixed as we audit/squash all of the uses of 'isFast()'.
Note: an inter-dependent clang commit to use the new API name should closely follow
commit.

Merging conditional stores tries to check to see if the code is if convertible after the store is moved. But the store hasn't been moved yet so its being counted against the threshold.

Summary:
SpeculativelyExecuteBB can flatten the CFG by doing
speculative execution followed by a select instruction.
When the speculatively executed BB contained dbg intrinsics
the result could be a little bit weird, since those dbg
intrinsics were inserted before the select in the flattened
CFG. So when single stepping in the debugger, printing the
value of the variable referenced in the dbg intrinsic, it
could happen that it looked like the variable had values
that never actually were assigned to the variable.
This patch simply discards all dbg intrinsics that were found
in the speculatively executed BB.

Currently the selects are created with the names of their inputs concatenated together. It's possible to get cases that chain these selects together resulting in long names due to multiple levels of concatenation. Our internal branch of llvm managed to generate names over 100000 characters in length on a particular test due to an extreme compounding of the names.

As noted in the nice block comment, the previous code didn't actually handle multi-entry loops correctly, it just assumed SCEV didn't analyze such loops. Given SCEV has comments to the contrary, that seems a bit suspect. More importantly, the pass actually requires loopsimplify form which ensures a loop-preheader is available. Remove the excessive generaility and shorten the code greatly.
Note that we do successfully analyze many multi-entry loops, but we do so by converting them to single entry loops. See the added test case.

This was intended to be no-functional-change, but it's not - there's a test diff.
So I thought I should stop here and post it as-is to see if this looks like what was expected
based on the discussion in PR34603:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34603
Notes:
1. The test improvement occurs because the existing 'LateSimplifyCFG' marker is not carried
through the recursive calls to 'SimplifyCFG()->SimplifyCFGOpt().run()->SimplifyCFG()'.
The parameter isn't passed down, so we pick up the default value from the function signature
after the first level. I assumed that was a bug, so I've passed 'Options' down in all of the
'SimplifyCFG' calls.
2. I split 'LateSimplifyCFG' into 2 bits: ConvertSwitchToLookupTable and KeepCanonicalLoops.
This would theoretically allow us to differentiate the transforms controlled by those params
independently.
3. We could stash the optional AssumptionCache pointer and 'LoopHeaders' pointer in the struct too.
I just stopped here to minimize the diffs.
4. Similarly, I stopped short of messing with the pass manager layer. I have another question that
could wait for the follow-up: why is the new pass manager creating the pass with LateSimplifyCFG
set to true no matter where in the pipeline it's creating SimplifyCFG passes?
// Create an early function pass manager to cleanup the output of the
// frontend.
EarlyFPM.addPass(SimplifyCFGPass());
-->
/// \brief Construct a pass with the default thresholds
/// and switch optimizations.
SimplifyCFGPass::SimplifyCFGPass()
: BonusInstThreshold(UserBonusInstThreshold),
LateSimplifyCFG(true) {} <-- switches get converted to lookup tables and loops may not be in canonical form
If this is unintended, then it's possible that the current behavior of dropping the 'LateSimplifyCFG'
setting via recursion was masking this bug.

Usually the frontend communicates the size of wchar_t via metadata and
we can optimize wcslen (and possibly other calls in the future). In
cases without the wchar_size metadata we would previously try to guess

keep up to date and may miss users manually changing the size via flags.
Better be safe and stop guessing and optimizing if the frontend didn't

Summary:
This implements the design discussed on llvm-dev for better tracking of
variables that live in memory through optimizations:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-September/117222.html
This is tracked as PR34136
llvm.dbg.addr is intended to be produced and used in almost precisely
the same way as llvm.dbg.declare is today, with the exception that it is
control-dependent. That means that dbg.addr should always have a
position in the instruction stream, and it will allow passes that
optimize memory operations on local variables to insert llvm.dbg.value
calls to reflect deleted stores. See SourceLevelDebugging.rst for more
details.
The main drawback to generating DBG_VALUE machine instrs is that they
usually cause LLVM to emit a location list for DW_AT_location. The next
step will be to teach DwarfDebug.cpp how to recognize more DBG_VALUE
ranges as not needing a location list, and possibly start setting
DW_AT_start_offset for variables whose lifetimes begin mid-scope.

Add a profitability heuristic to enable runtime unrolling of multi-exit
loop: There can be atmost two unique exit blocks for the loop and the
second exit block should be a deoptimizing block. Also, there can be one
other exiting block other than the latch exiting block. The reason for
the latter is so that we limit the number of branches in the unrolled
code to being at most the unroll factor. Deoptimizing blocks are rarely
taken so these additional number of branches created due to the
unrolling are predictable, since one of their target is the deopt block.

On some targets, the penalty of executing runtime unrolling checks
and then not the unrolled loop can be significantly detrimental to
performance. This results in the need to be more conservative with
the unroll count, keeping a trip count of 2 reduces the overhead as
well as increasing the chance of the unrolled body being executed. But
being conservative leaves performance gains on the table.
This patch enables the unrolling of the remainder loop introduced by
runtime unrolling. This can help reduce the overhead of misunrolled
loops because the cost of non-taken branches is much less than the
cost of the backedge that would normally be executed in the remainder
loop. This allows larger unroll factors to be used without suffering
performance loses with smaller iteration counts.
