* DataLayout is mandatory, update the API to reflect it with references.Mehdi Amini2015-03-101-16/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: Now that the DataLayout is a mandatory part of the module, let's start cleaning the codebase. This patch is a first attempt at doing that. This patch is not exactly NFC as for instance some places were passing a nullptr instead of the DataLayout, possibly just because there was a default value on the DataLayout argument to many functions in the API. Even though it is not purely NFC, there is no change in the validation. I turned as many pointer to DataLayout to references, this helped figuring out all the places where a nullptr could come up. I had initially a local version of this patch broken into over 30 independant, commits but some later commit were cleaning the API and touching part of the code modified in the previous commits, so it seemed cleaner without the intermediate state.

* Make DataLayout Non-Optional in the ModuleMehdi Amini2015-03-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: DataLayout keeps the string used for its creation. As a side effect it is no longer needed in the Module. This is "almost" NFC, the string is no longer canonicalized, you can't rely on two "equals" DataLayout having the same string returned by getStringRepresentation(). Get rid of DataLayoutPass: the DataLayout is in the Module The DataLayout is "per-module", let's enforce this by not duplicating it more than necessary. One more step toward non-optionality of the DataLayout in the module. Make DataLayout Non-Optional in the Module Module->getDataLayout() will never returns nullptr anymore.

* [BDCE] Don't forget uses of root instructions seen before the instruction itselfHal Finkel2015-02-181-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When visiting the initial list of "root" instructions (those which must always be alive), for those that are integer-valued (such as invokes returning an integer), we mark their bits as (initially) all dead (we might, obviously, find uses of those bits later, but all bits are assumed dead until proven otherwise). Don't do so, however, if we're already seen a use of those bits by another root instruction (such as a store). Fixes a miscompile of the sanitizer unit tests on x86_64. Also, add a debug line for visiting the root instructions, and remove a debug line which tried to print instructions being removed (printing dead instructions is dangerous, and can sometimes crash). llvm-svn: 229618
* [BDCE] Add a bit-tracking DCE passHal Finkel2015-02-171-0/+408
BDCE is a bit-tracking dead code elimination pass. It is based on ADCE (the "aggressive DCE" pass), with the added capability to track dead bits of integer valued instructions and remove those instructions when all of the bits are dead. Currently, it does not actually do this all-bits-dead removal, but rather replaces the instruction's uses with a constant zero, and lets instcombine (and the later run of ADCE) do the rest. Because we essentially get a run of ADCE "for free" while tracking the dead bits, we also do what ADCE does and removes actually-dead instructions as well (this includes instructions newly trivially dead because all bits were dead, but not all such instructions can be removed). The motivation for this is a case like: int __attribute__((const)) foo(int i); int bar(int x) { x |= (4 & foo(5)); x |= (8 & foo(3)); x |= (16 & foo(2)); x |= (32 & foo(1)); x |= (64 & foo(0)); x |= (128& foo(4)); return x >> 4; } As it turns out, if you order the bit-field insertions so that all of the dead ones come last, then instcombine will remove them. However, if you pick some other order (such as the one above), the fact that some of the calls to foo() are useless is not locally obvious, and we don't remove them (without this pass). I did a quick compile-time overhead check using sqlite from the test suite (Release+Asserts). BDCE took ~0.4% of the compilation time (making it about twice as expensive as ADCE). I've not looked at why yet, but we eliminate instructions due to having all-dead bits in: External/SPEC/CFP2006/447.dealII/447.dealII External/SPEC/CINT2006/400.perlbench/400.perlbench External/SPEC/CINT2006/403.gcc/403.gcc MultiSource/Applications/ClamAV/clamscan MultiSource/Benchmarks/7zip/7zip-benchmark llvm-svn: 229462
