* Create a wrapper pass for BranchProbabilityInfo.Cong Hou2015-07-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | This new wrapper pass is useful when we want to do branch probability analysis conditionally (e.g. only in PGO mode) but don't want to add one more pass dependence. http://reviews.llvm.org/D11241 llvm-svn: 242349
* Create a wrapper pass for BlockFrequencyInfo.Wei Mi2015-07-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | This is useful when we want to do block frequency analysis conditionally (e.g. only in PGO mode) but don't want to add one more pass dependence. Patch by congh. Approved by dexonsmith. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D11196 llvm-svn: 242248
* Divergence analysis for GPU programsJingyue Wu2015-04-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: Some optimizations such as jump threading and loop unswitching can negatively affect performance when applied to divergent branches. The divergence analysis added in this patch conservatively estimates which branches in a GPU program can diverge. This information can then help LLVM to run certain optimizations selectively.

* Remove the Forward Control Flow Integrity pass and its dependencies.Eric Christopher2015-02-271-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | This work is currently being rethought along different lines and if this work is needed it can be resurrected out of svn. Remove it for now as no current work in ongoing on it and it's unused. Verified with the authors before removal. llvm-svn: 230780
* Introduce print-memderefs to test isDereferenceablePointerRamkumar Ramachandra2015-02-061-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Since testing the function indirectly is tricky, introduce a direct print-memderefs pass, in the same spirit as print-memdeps, which prints dereferenceability information matched by FileCheck. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D7075 llvm-svn: 228369
* [PM] Change the core design of the TTI analysis to use a polymorphicChandler Carruth2015-01-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | type erased interface and a single analysis pass rather than an extremely complex analysis group. The end result is that the TTI analysis can contain a type erased implementation that supports the polymorphic TTI interface. We can build one from a target-specific implementation or from a dummy one in the IR. I've also factored all of the code into "mix-in"-able base classes, including CRTP base classes to facilitate calling back up to the most specialized form when delegating horizontally across the surface. These aren't as clean as I would like and I'm planning to work on cleaning some of this up, but I wanted to start by putting into the right form. There are a number of reasons for this change, and this particular design. The first and foremost reason is that an analysis group is complete overkill, and the chaining delegation strategy was so opaque, confusing, and high overhead that TTI was suffering greatly for it. Several of the TTI functions had failed to be implemented in all places because of the chaining-based delegation making there be no checking of this. A few other functions were implemented with incorrect delegation. The message to me was very clear working on this -- the delegation and analysis group structure was too confusing to be useful here. The other reason of course is that this is *much* more natural fit for the new pass manager. This will lay the ground work for a type-erased per-function info object that can look up the correct subtarget and even cache it. Yet another benefit is that this will significantly simplify the interaction of the pass managers and the TargetMachine. See the future work below. The downside of this change is that it is very, very verbose. I'm going to work to improve that, but it is somewhat an implementation necessity in C++ to do type erasure. =/ I discussed this design really extensively with Eric and Hal prior to going down this path, and afterward showed them the result. No one was really thrilled with it, but there doesn't seem to be a substantially better alternative. Using a base class and virtual method dispatch would make the code much shorter, but as discussed in the update to the programmer's manual and elsewhere, a polymorphic interface feels like the more principled approach even if this is perhaps the least compelling example of it. ;] Ultimately, there is still a lot more to be done here, but this was the huge chunk that I couldn't really split things out of because this was the interface change to TTI. I've tried to minimize all the other parts of this. The follow up work should include at least: 1) Improving the TargetMachine interface by having it directly return a TTI object. Because we have a non-pass object with value semantics and an internal type erasure mechanism, we can narrow the interface of the TargetMachine to *just* do what we need: build and return a TTI object that we can then insert into the pass pipeline. 2) Make the TTI object be fully specialized for a particular function. This will include splitting off a minimal form of it which is sufficient for the inliner and the old pass manager. 3) Add a new pass manager analysis which produces TTI objects from the target machine for each function. This may actually be done as part of #2 in order to use the new analysis to implement #2. 4) Work on narrowing the API between TTI and the targets so that it is easier to understand and less verbose to type erase. 5) Work on narrowing the API between TTI and its clients so that it is easier to understand and less verbose to forward. 6) Try to improve the CRTP-based delegation. I feel like this code is just a bit messy and exacerbating the complexity of implementing the TTI in each target. Many thanks to Eric and Hal for their help here. I ended up blocked on this somewhat more abruptly than I expected, and so I appreciate getting it sorted out very quickly. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D7293 llvm-svn: 227669
* [PM] Split the LoopInfo object apart from the legacy pass, creatingChandler Carruth2015-01-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | a LoopInfoWrapperPass to wire the object up to the legacy pass manager. This switches all the clients of LoopInfo over and paves the way to port LoopInfo to the new pass manager. No functionality change is intended with this iteration. llvm-svn: 226373
* Revert "Don't make assumptions about the name of private global variables."Reid Kleckner2014-11-151-1/+0
| | | | | | | | This reverts commit r222061. It's causing linker errors. llvm-svn: 222077
* Don't make assumptions about the name of private global variables.Rafael Espindola2014-11-141-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Private variables are can be renamed, so it is not reliable to make decisions on the name. The name is also dropped by the assembler before getting to the linker, so using the name causes a disconnect between how llvm makes a decision (var name) and how the linker makes a decision (section it is in). This patch changes one case where we were looking at the variable name to use the section instead. Test tuning by Michael Gottesman. llvm-svn: 222061
* Add a CFL Alias Analysis implementationHal Finkel2014-09-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides an implementation of CFL alias analysis (including some supporting data structures). Currently, we don't have any extremely fancy features, sans some interprocedural analysis (i.e. no field sensitivity, etc.), and we do best sitting behind BasicAA + TBAA. In such a configuration, we take ~0.6-0.8% of total compile time, and give ~7-8% NoAlias responses to queries TBAA and BasicAA couldn't answer when bootstrapping LLVM. In testing this on other projects, we've seen up to 10.5% of queries dropped by BasicAA+TBAA answered with NoAlias by this algorithm. Patch by George Burgess IV (with minor modifications by me -- mostly adapting some BasicAA tests), thanks! llvm-svn: 216970
* Add scoped-noalias metadataHal Finkel2014-07-241-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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

* Introduce a string_ostream string builder faciltyAlp Toker2014-06-261-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | string_ostream is a safe and efficient string builder that combines opaque stack storage with a built-in ostream interface. small_string_ostream<bytes> additionally permits an explicit stack storage size other than the default 128 bytes to be provided. Beyond that, storage is transferred to the heap. This convenient class can be used in most places an std::string+raw_string_ostream pair or SmallString<>+raw_svector_ostream pair would previously have been used, in order to guarantee consistent access without byte truncation. The patch also converts much of LLVM to use the new facility. These changes include several probable bug fixes for truncated output, a programming error that's no longer possible with the new interface. llvm-svn: 211749
* Add a new attribute called 'jumptable' that creates jump-instruction tables ↵Tom Roeder2014-06-051-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | for functions marked with this attribute. It includes a pass that rewrites all indirect calls to jumptable functions to pass through these tables. This also adds backend support for generating the jump-instruction tables on ARM and X86. Note that since the jumptable attribute creates a second function pointer for a function, any function marked with jumptable must also be marked with unnamed_addr. llvm-svn: 210280

* [PM] Make the verifier work independently of any pass manager.Chandler Carruth2014-01-191-6/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes the 'verifyFunction' and 'verifyModule' functions totally independent operations on the LLVM IR. It also cleans up their API a bit by lifting the abort behavior into their clients and just using an optional raw_ostream parameter to control printing. The implementation of the verifier is now just an InstVisitor with no multiple inheritance. It also is significantly more const-correct, and hides the const violations internally. The two layers that force us to break const correctness are building a DomTree and dispatching through the InstVisitor. A new VerifierPass is used to implement the legacy pass manager interface in terms of the other pieces. The error messages produced may be slightly different now, and we may have slightly different short circuiting behavior with different usage models of the verifier, but generally everything works equivalently and this unblocks wiring the verifier up to the new pass manager. llvm-svn: 199569
* [cleanup] Move the Dominators.h and Verifier.h headers into the IRChandler Carruth2014-01-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | directory. These passes are already defined in the IR library, and it 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. But those are very long term, and so I don't want to leave the really confusing structure until that day arrives. llvm-svn: 199082

* Remove the very substantial, largely unmaintained legacy PGOChandler Carruth2013-10-021-10/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | infrastructure. This was essentially work toward PGO based on a design that had several flaws, partially dating from a time when LLVM had a different architecture, and with an effort to modernize it abandoned without being completed. Since then, it has bitrotted for several years further. The result is nearly unusable, and isn't helping any of the modern PGO efforts. Instead, it is getting in the way, adding confusion about PGO in LLVM and distracting everyone with maintenance on essentially dead code. Removing it paves the way for modern efforts around PGO. Among other effects, this removes the last of the runtime libraries from LLVM. Those are being developed in the separate 'compiler-rt' project now, with somewhat different licensing specifically more approriate for runtimes. llvm-svn: 191835
* This patch breaks up Wrap.h so that it does not have to include all of Filip Pizlo2013-05-011-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the things, and renames it to CBindingWrapping.h. I also moved CBindingWrapping.h into Support/. This new file just contains the macros for defining different wrap/unwrap methods. The calls to those macros, as well as any custom wrap/unwrap definitions (like for array of Values for example), are put into corresponding C++ headers. Doing this required some #include surgery, since some .cpp files relied on the fact that including Wrap.h implicitly caused the inclusion of a bunch of other things. This also now means that the C++ headers will include their corresponding C API headers; for example Value.h must include llvm-c/Core.h. I think this is harmless, since the C API headers contain just external function declarations and some C types, so I don't believe there should be any nasty dependency issues here. llvm-svn: 180881
* Move C++ code out of the C headers and into either C++ headersEric Christopher2013-04-221-0/+1

* Use the new script to sort the includes of every file under lib.Chandler Carruth2012-12-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes. I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything (I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the API being implemented. Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main module rule does in fact have its merits. =] llvm-svn: 169131

* dependence analysisSebastian Pop2012-10-111-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch from Preston Briggs <preston.briggs@gmail.com>. This is an updated version of the dependence-analysis patch, including an MIV test based on Banerjee's inequalities. It's a fairly complete implementation of the paper Practical Dependence Testing Gina Goff, Ken Kennedy, and Chau-Wen Tseng PLDI 1991 It cannot yet propagate constraints between coupled RDIV subscripts (discussed in Section 5.3.2 of the paper). It's organized as a FunctionPass with a single entry point that supports testing for dependence between two instructions in a function. If there's no dependence, it returns null. If there's a dependence, it returns a pointer to a Dependence which can be queried about details (what kind of dependence, is it loop independent, direction and distance vector entries, etc). I haven't included every imaginable feature, but there's a good selection that should be adequate for supporting many loop transformations. Of course, it can be extended as necessary. Included in the patch file are many test cases, commented with C code showing the loops and array references. llvm-svn: 165708
