with a mixture of promotable and unpromotable selects and phis. Added
a test case for this.

pending speculation for a phi node. The problem here is that we were
using growth of the specluation set as an indicator of whether
speculation would occur, and if the phi node is already in the set we
don't see it grow. This is a symptom of the fact that this signal is
a total hack.
Unfortunately, I couldn't really come up with a non-hacky way of
signaling that promotion remains valid *after* speculation occurs, such
that we only speculate when all else looks good for promotion. In the
end, I went with at least a much more explicit approach of doing the
work of queuing inside the phi and select processing and setting
a preposterously named flag to convey that we're in the special state of
requiring speculating before promotion.
Thanks to Richard Trieu and Nick Lewycky for the excellent work reducing
a testcase for this from a pretty giant, nasty assert in a big
application. =] The testcase was excellent.

implementation of the SROA algorithm. We were using the term 'partition'
in many places that no longer ever represented an actual partition, but
rather just an arbitrary slice of an alloca.
No functionality change intended here. Mostly just renaming of types,
functions, variables, and rewording of comments. Several comments were
rewritten to make a lot more sense in the new structure of things.
The stats are still weird and not reflective of how this really works.
I'll fix those up in a separate patch as it is a touch more semantic of
a change...

SROA.
The crux of the issue is that now we track uses of a partition of the
alloca in two places: the iterators over the partitioning uses and the
previously collected split uses vector. We weren't accounting for the
fact that the split uses might invalidate integer widening in ways other
than due to their width (in this case due to being volatile).
Further reduced testcase added to the tests.

a crasher, but thus far been unable to reproduce the crash. It may well
be fixed with this version, and if not I'd like to get more information

This reverts the commit which introduced a new implementation of the
fancy SROA pass designed to reduce its overhead. I'll skip the huge
commit log here, refer to r186316 if you're looking for how this all
works and why it works that way.

different core implementation strategy.
Previously, SROA would build a relatively elaborate partitioning of an
alloca, associate uses with each partition, and then rewrite the uses of
each partition in an attempt to break apart the alloca into chunks that
could be promoted. This was very wasteful in terms of memory and compile
time because regardless of how complex the alloca or how much we're able
to do in breaking it up, all of the datastructure work to analyze the
partitioning was done up front.
The new implementation attempts to form partitions of the alloca lazily
and on the fly, rewriting the uses that make up that partition as it
goes. This has a few significant effects:
1) Much simpler data structures are used throughout.
2) No more double walk of the recursive use graph of the alloca, only
walk it once.
3) No more complex algorithms for associating a particular use with
a particular partition.
4) PHI and Select speculation is simplified and happens lazily.
5) More precise information is available about a specific use of the
alloca, removing the need for some side datastructures.
Ultimately, I think this is a much better implementation. It removes
about 300 lines of code, but arguably removes more like 500 considering
that some code grew in the process of being factored apart and cleaned
up for this all to work.
I've re-used as much of the old implementation as possible, which
includes the lion's share of code in the form of the rewriting logic.
The interesting new logic centers around how the uses of a partition are
sorted, and split into actual partitions.
Each instruction using a pointer derived from the alloca gets
a 'Partition' entry. This name is totally wrong, but I'll do a rename in
a follow-up commit as there is already enough churn here. The entry
describes the offset range accessed and the nature of the access. Once
we have all of these entries we sort them in a very specific way:
increasing order of begin offset, followed by whether they are
splittable uses (memcpy, etc), followed by the end offset or whatever.
Sorting by splittability is important as it simplifies the collection of
uses into a partition.
Once we have these uses sorted, we walk from the beginning to the end
building up a range of uses that form a partition of the alloca.
Overlapping unsplittable uses are merged into a single partition while
splittable uses are broken apart and carried from one partition to the
next. A partition is also introduced to bridge splittable uses between
the unsplittable regions when necessary.
I've looked at the performance PRs fairly closely. PR15471 no longer
will even load (the module is invalid). Not sure what is up there.
PR15412 improves by between 5% and 10%, however it is nearly impossible
to know what is holding it up as SROA (the entire pass) takes less time
than reading the IR for that test case. The analysis takes the same time
as running mem2reg on the final allocas. I suspect (without much
evidence) that the new implementation will scale much better however,
and it is just the small nature of the test cases that makes the changes
small and noisy. Either way, it is still simpler and cleaner I think.

When a 1-element vector alloca is promoted, a store instruction can often be
rewritten without converting the value to a scalar and using an insertelement
instruction to stuff it into the new alloca. This patch just adds a check
to skip that conversion when it is unnecessary. This turns out to be really
important for some ARM Neon operations where <1 x i64> is used to get around
the fact that i64 is not a legal type.

The fix for PR14972 in r177055 introduced a real think-o in the *store*
side, likely because I was much more focused on the load side. While we
can arbitrarily widen (or narrow) a loaded value, we can't arbitrarily
widen a value to be stored, as that changes the width of memory access!
Lock down the code path in the store rewriting which would do this to
only handle the intended circumstance.
All of the existing tests continue to pass, and I've added a test from
the PR.

The key part of this is ensuring that name prefixes remain in a Twine
form until we get to a point where we can nuke them under NDEBUG. This
is tricky using the old APIs as they played fast and loose with Twine,
which is prone to serious error. The inserter is much cleaner as it is
actually in the call stack leading to the setName call, and so has
a good opportunity to prepend the prefix.
This matters more than you might imagine because most runs over an
alloca find a single partition, and rewrite 3 or 4 instructions
referring to it. As a consequence doing this lazily and exclusively with
Twine allows the optimizer to delete more of it and shaves another 2% to
3% off of the release build's SROA run time for PR15412. I also think
the APIs are cleaner, and the use of Twine is more reliable, so
I consider it a win-win despite the churn required to reach this state.

This is espcially important because the new SROA pass goes to great
lengths to provide helpful names for debugging, and as a consequence
they can become very slow to render.
Good for between 5% and 15% of the SROA runtime on some slow test cases
such as the one in PR15412.

The fundamental problem is that SROA didn't allow for overly wide loads
where the bits past the end of the alloca were masked away and the load
was sufficiently aligned to ensure there is no risk of page fault, or
other trapping behavior. With such widened loads, SROA would delete the
load entirely rather than clamping it to the size of the alloca in order
to allow mem2reg to fire. This was exposed by a test case that neatly
arranged for GVN to run first, widening certain loads, followed by an
inline step, and then SROA which miscompiles the code. However, I see no
reason why this hasn't been plaguing us in other contexts. It seems
deeply broken.
Diagnosing all of the above took all of 10 minutes of debugging. The
really annoying aspect is that fixing this completely breaks the pass.
;] There was an implicit reliance on the fact that no loads or stores
extended past the alloca once we decided to rewrite them in the final
stage of SROA. This was used to encode information about whether the
loads and stores had been split across multiple partitions of the
original alloca. That required threading explicit tracking of whether
a *use* of a partition is split across multiple partitions.
Once that was done, another problem arose: we allowed splitting of
integer loads and stores iff they were loads and stores to the entire
alloca. This is a really arbitrary limitation, and splitting at least
some integer loads and stores is crucial to maximize promotion
opportunities. My first attempt was to start removing the restriction
entirely, but currently that does Very Bad Things by causing *many*
common alloca patterns to be fully decomposed into i8 operations and
lots of or-ing together to produce larger integers on demand. The code
bloat is terrifying. That is still the right end-goal, but substantial
work must be done to either merge partitions or ensure that small i8
values are eagerly merged in some other pass. Sadly, figuring all this
out took essentially all the time and effort here.
So the end result is that we allow splitting only when the load or store
at least covers the alloca. That ensures widened loads and stores don't
hurt SROA, and that we don't rampantly decompose operations more than we
have previously.
All of this was already fairly well tested, and so I've just updated the
tests to cover the wide load behavior. I can add a test that crafts the
pass ordering magic which caused the original PR, but that seems really
brittle and to provide little benefit. The fundamental problem is that
widened loads should Just Work.

into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).
I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be
committing updates to Clang, DragonEgg, and Polly momentarily.

This was a silly oversight, we weren't pruning allocas which were used
by variable-length memory intrinsics from the set that could be widened
and promoted as integers. Fix that.

This also cleans up a bit of the memcpy call rewriting by sinking some
irrelevant code further down and making the call-emitting code a bit
more concrete.
Previously, memcpy of a subvector would actually miscompile (!!!) the
copy into a single vector element copy. I have no idea how this ever
worked. =/ This is the memcpy half of PR14478 which we probably weren't
noticing previously because it didn't actually assert.
The rewrite relies on the newly refactored insert- and extractVector
functions to do the heavy lifting, and those are the same as used for
loads and stores which makes the test coverage a bit more meaningful
here.

The first half of fixing this bug was actually in r170328, but was
entirely coincidental. It did however get me to realize the nature of
the bug, and adapt the test case to test more interesting behavior. In
turn, that uncovered the rest of the bug which I've fixed here.
This should fix two new asserts that showed up in the vectorize nightly
tester.

I noticed this while looking at r170328. We only ever do a vector
rewrite when the alloca *is* the vector type, so it's good to not paper
over bugs here by doing a convertValue that isn't needed.

This will allow its use inside of memcpy rewriting as well. This routine
is more complex than extractVector, and some of its uses are not 100%
where I want them to be so there is still some work to do here.
While this can technically change the output in some cases, it shouldn't
be a change that matters -- IE, it can leave some dead code lying around
that prior versions did not, etc.
Yet another step in the refactorings leading up to the solution to the
last component of PR14478.

The method helpers all implicitly act upon the alloca, and what we
really want is a fully generic helper. Doing memcpy rewrites is more
special than all other rewrites because we are at times rewriting
instructions which touch pointers *other* than the alloca. As
a consequence all of the helpers needed by memcpy rewriting of
sub-vector copies will need to be generalized fully.
Note that all of these helpers ({insert,extract}{Integer,Vector}) are
woefully uncommented. I'm going to go back through and document them
once I get the factoring correct.
No functionality changed.

PR14478 highlights a serious problem in SROA that simply wasn't being
exercised due to a lack of vector input code mixed with C-library
function calls. Part of SROA was written carefully to handle subvector
accesses via memset and memcpy, but the rewriter never grew support for
this. Fixing it required refactoring the subvector access code in other
parts of SROA so it could be shared, and then fixing the splat formation
logic and using subvector insertion (this patch).
The PR isn't quite fixed yet, as memcpy is still broken in the same way.
I'm starting on that series of patches now.
Hopefully this will be enough to bring the bullet benchmark back to life
with the bb-vectorizer enabled, but that may require fixing memcpy as
well.

This visitor provides infrastructure for recursively traversing the
use-graph of a pointer-producing instruction like an alloca or a malloc.
It maintains a worklist of uses to visit, so it can handle very deep
recursions. It automatically looks through instructions which simply
translate one pointer to another (bitcasts and GEPs). It tracks the
offset relative to the original pointer as long as that offset remains
constant and exposes it during the visit as an APInt offset. Finally, it
performs conservative escape analysis.
However, currently it has some limitations that should be addressed
going forward:
1) It doesn't handle vectors of pointers.
2) It doesn't provide a cheaper visitor when the constant offset
tracking isn't needed.
3) It doesn't support non-instruction pointer values.
The current functionality is exactly what is required to implement the
SROA pointer-use visitors in terms of this one, rather than in terms of
their own ad-hoc base visitor, which was always very poorly specified.
SROA has been converted to use this, and the code there deleted which
this utility now provides.
Technically speaking, using this new visitor allows SROA to handle a few
more cases than it previously did. It is now more aggressive in ignoring
chains of instructions which look like they would defeat SROA, but in
fact do not because they never result in a read or write of memory.
While this is "neat", it shouldn't be interesting for real programs as
any such chains should have been removed by others passes long before we
get to SROA. As a consequence, I've not added any tests for these
features -- it shouldn't be part of SROA's contract to perform such
heroics.
The goal is to extend the functionality of this visitor going forward,
and re-use it from passes like ASan that can benefit from doing
a detailed walk of the uses of a pointer.
Thanks to Ben Kramer for the code review rounds and lots of help
reviewing and debugging this patch.
