SampleProfileLoader pass. Initial setup. This adds a new scalar pass that reads a file with samples generated by 'perf' during runtime. The samples read from the profile are incorporated and emmited as IR metadata reflecting that profile. The profile file is assumed to have been generated by an external profile source. The profile information is converted into IR metadata, which is later used by the analysis routines to estimate block frequencies, edge weights and other related data. External profile information files have no fixed format, each profiler is free to define its own. This includes both the on-disk representation of the profile and the kind of profile information stored in the file. A common kind of profile is based on sampling (e.g., perf), which essentially counts how many times each line of the program has been executed during the run. The SampleProfileLoader pass is organized as a scalar transformation. On startup, it reads the file given in -sample-profile-file to determine what kind of profile it contains. This file is assumed to contain profile information for the whole application. The profile data in the file is read and incorporated into the internal state of the corresponding profiler. To facilitate testing, I've organized the profilers to support two file formats: text and native. The native format is whatever on-disk representation the profiler wants to support, I think this will mostly be bitcode files, but it could be anything the profiler wants to support. To do this, every profiler must implement the SampleProfile::loadNative() function. The text format is mostly meant for debugging. Records are separated by newlines, but each profiler is free to interpret records as it sees fit. Profilers must implement the SampleProfile::loadText() function. Finally, the pass will call SampleProfile::emitAnnotations() for each function in the current translation unit. This function needs to translate the loaded profile into IR metadata, which the analyzer will later be able to use. This patch implements the first steps towards the above design. I've implemented a sample-based flat profiler. The format of the profile is fairly simplistic. Each sampled function contains a list of relative line locations (from the start of the function) together with a count representing how many samples were collected at that line during execution. I generate this profile using perf and a separate converter tool. Currently, I have only implemented a text format for these profiles. I am interested in initial feedback to the whole approach before I send the other parts of the implementation for review. This patch implements: - The SampleProfileLoader pass. - The base ExternalProfile class with the core interface. - A SampleProfile sub-class using the above interface. The profiler generates branch weight metadata on every branch instructions that matches the profiles. - A text loader class to assist the implementation of SampleProfile::loadText(). - Basic unit tests for the pass. Additionally, the patch uses profile information to compute branch weights based on instruction samples. This patch converts instruction samples into branch weights. It does a fairly simplistic conversion: Given a multi-way branch instruction, it calculates the weight of each branch based on the maximum sample count gathered from each target basic block. Note that this assignment of branch weights is somewhat lossy and can be misleading. If a basic block has more than one incoming branch, all the incoming branches will get the same weight. In reality, it may be that only one of them is the most heavily taken branch. I will adjust this assignment in subsequent patches. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@194566 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

Introduce a new SROA implementation. This is essentially a ground up re-think of the SROA pass in LLVM. It was initially inspired by a few problems with the existing pass: - It is subject to the bane of my existence in optimizations: arbitrary thresholds. - It is overly conservative about which constructs can be split and promoted. - The vector value replacement aspect is separated from the splitting logic, missing many opportunities where splitting and vector value formation can work together. - The splitting is entirely based around the underlying type of the alloca, despite this type often having little to do with the reality of how that memory is used. This is especially prevelant with unions and base classes where we tail-pack derived members. - When splitting fails (often due to the thresholds), the vector value replacement (again because it is separate) can kick in for preposterous cases where we simply should have split the value. This results in forming i1024 and i2048 integer "bit vectors" that tremendously slow down subsequnet IR optimizations (due to large APInts) and impede the backend's lowering. The new design takes an approach that fundamentally is not susceptible to many of these problems. It is the result of a discusison between myself and Duncan Sands over IRC about how to premptively avoid these types of problems and how to do SROA in a more principled way. Since then, it has evolved and grown, but this remains an important aspect: it fixes real world problems with the SROA process today. First, the transform of SROA actually has little to do with replacement. It has more to do with splitting. The goal is to take an aggregate alloca and form a composition of scalar allocas which can replace it and will be most suitable to the eventual replacement by scalar SSA values. The actual replacement is performed by mem2reg (and in the future SSAUpdater). The splitting is divided into four phases. The first phase is an analysis of the uses of the alloca. This phase recursively walks uses, building up a dense datastructure representing the ranges of the alloca's memory actually used and checking for uses which inhibit any aspects of the transform such as the escape of a pointer. Once we have a mapping of the ranges of the alloca used by individual operations, we compute a partitioning of the used ranges. Some uses are inherently splittable (such as memcpy and memset), while scalar uses are not splittable. The goal is to build a partitioning that has the minimum number of splits while placing each unsplittable use in its own partition. Overlapping unsplittable uses belong to the same partition. This is the target split of the aggregate alloca, and it maximizes the number of scalar accesses which become accesses to their own alloca and candidates for promotion. Third, we re-walk the uses of the alloca and assign each specific memory access to all the partitions touched so that we have dense use-lists for each partition. Finally, we build a new, smaller alloca for each partition and rewrite each use of that partition to use the new alloca. During this phase the pass will also work very hard to transform uses of an alloca into a form suitable for promotion, including forming vector operations, speculating loads throguh PHI nodes and selects, etc. After splitting is complete, each newly refined alloca that is a candidate for promotion to a scalar SSA value is run through mem2reg. There are lots of reasonably detailed comments in the source code about the design and algorithms, and I'm going to be trying to improve them in subsequent commits to ensure this is well documented, as the new pass is in many ways more complex than the old one. Some of this is still a WIP, but the current state is reasonbly stable. It has passed bootstrap, the nightly test suite, and Duncan has run it successfully through the ACATS and DragonEgg test suites. That said, it remains behind a default-off flag until the last few pieces are in place, and full testing can be done. Specific areas I'm looking at next: - Improved comments and some code cleanup from reviews. - SSAUpdater and enabling this pass inside the CGSCC pass manager. - Some datastructure tuning and compile-time measurements. - More aggressive FCA splitting and vector formation. Many thanks to Duncan Sands for the thorough final review, as well as Benjamin Kramer for lots of review during the process of writing this pass, and Daniel Berlin for reviewing the data structures and algorithms and general theory of the pass. Also, several other people on IRC, over lunch tables, etc for lots of feedback and advice. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@163883 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

// SROA - Replace aggregates or pieces of aggregates with scalar SSA values.
//
Port the SSAUpdater-based promotion logic from the old SROA pass to the new one, and add support for running the new pass in that mode and in that slot of the pass manager. With this the new pass can completely replace the old one within the pipeline. The strategy for enabling or disabling the SSAUpdater logic is to do it by making the requirement of the domtree analysis optional. By default, it is required and we get the standard mem2reg approach. This is usually the desired strategy when run in stand-alone situations. Within the CGSCC pass manager, we disable requiring of the domtree analysis and consequentially trigger fallback to the SSAUpdater promotion. In theory this would allow the pass to re-use a domtree if one happened to be available even when run in a mode that doesn't require it. In practice, it lets us have a single pass rather than two which was simpler for me to wrap my head around. There is a hidden flag to force the use of the SSAUpdater code path for the purpose of testing. The primary testing strategy is just to run the existing tests through that path. One notable difference is that it has custom code to handle lifetime markers, and one of the tests has been enhanced to exercise that code. This has survived a bootstrap and the test suite without serious correctness issues, however my run of the test suite produced *very* alarming performance numbers. I don't entirely understand or trust them though, so more investigation is on-going. To aid my understanding of the performance impact of the new SROA now that it runs throughout the optimization pipeline, I'm enabling it by default in this commit, and will disable it again once the LNT bots have picked up one iteration with it. I want to get those bots (which are much more stable) to evaluate the impact of the change before I jump to any conclusions. NOTE: Several Clang tests will fail because they run -O3 and check the result's order of output. They'll go back to passing once I disable it again. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@163965 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

Switch the SCEV expander and LoopStrengthReduce to use TargetTransformInfo rather than TargetLowering, removing one of the primary instances of the layering violation of Transforms depending directly on Target. This is a really big deal because LSR used to be a "special" pass that could only be tested fully using llc and by looking at the full output of it. It also couldn't run with any other loop passes because it had to be created by the backend. No longer is this true. LSR is now just a normal pass and we should probably lift the creation of LSR out of lib/CodeGen/Passes.cpp and into the PassManagerBuilder. =] I've not done this, or updated all of the tests to use opt and a triple, because I suspect someone more familiar with LSR would do a better job. This change should be essentially without functional impact for normal compilations, and only change behvaior of targetless compilations. The conversion required changing all of the LSR code to refer to the TTI interfaces, which fortunately are very similar to TargetLowering's interfaces. However, it also allowed us to *always* expect to have some implementation around. I've pushed that simplification through the pass, and leveraged it to simplify code somewhat. It required some test updates for one of two things: either we used to skip some checks altogether but now we get the default "no" answer for them, or we used to have no information about the target and now we do have some. I've also started the process of removing AddrMode, as the TTI interface doesn't use it any longer. In some cases this simplifies code, and in others it adds some complexity, but I think it's not a bad tradeoff even there. Subsequent patches will try to clean this up even further and use other (more appropriate) abstractions.

Add a loop rerolling pass This adds a loop rerolling pass: the opposite of (partial) loop unrolling. The transformation aims to take loops like this: for (int i = 0; i < 3200; i += 5) { a[i] += alpha * b[i]; a[i + 1] += alpha * b[i + 1]; a[i + 2] += alpha * b[i + 2]; a[i + 3] += alpha * b[i + 3]; a[i + 4] += alpha * b[i + 4]; } and turn them into this: for (int i = 0; i < 3200; ++i) { a[i] += alpha * b[i]; } and loops like this: for (int i = 0; i < 500; ++i) { x[3*i] = foo(0); x[3*i+1] = foo(0); x[3*i+2] = foo(0); } and turn them into this: for (int i = 0; i < 1500; ++i) { x[i] = foo(0); } There are two motivations for this transformation: 1. Code-size reduction (especially relevant, obviously, when compiling for code size). 2. Providing greater choice to the loop vectorizer (and generic unroller) to choose the unrolling factor (and a better ability to vectorize). The loop vectorizer can take vector lengths and register pressure into account when choosing an unrolling factor, for example, and a pre-unrolled loop limits that choice. This is especially problematic if the manual unrolling was optimized for a machine different from the current target. The current implementation is limited to single basic-block loops only. The rerolling recognition should work regardless of how the loop iterations are intermixed within the loop body (subject to dependency and side-effect constraints), but the significant restriction is that the order of the instructions in each iteration must be identical. This seems sufficient to capture all current use cases. This pass is not currently enabled by default at any optimization level. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@194939 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

SampleProfileLoader pass. Initial setup. This adds a new scalar pass that reads a file with samples generated by 'perf' during runtime. The samples read from the profile are incorporated and emmited as IR metadata reflecting that profile. The profile file is assumed to have been generated by an external profile source. The profile information is converted into IR metadata, which is later used by the analysis routines to estimate block frequencies, edge weights and other related data. External profile information files have no fixed format, each profiler is free to define its own. This includes both the on-disk representation of the profile and the kind of profile information stored in the file. A common kind of profile is based on sampling (e.g., perf), which essentially counts how many times each line of the program has been executed during the run. The SampleProfileLoader pass is organized as a scalar transformation. On startup, it reads the file given in -sample-profile-file to determine what kind of profile it contains. This file is assumed to contain profile information for the whole application. The profile data in the file is read and incorporated into the internal state of the corresponding profiler. To facilitate testing, I've organized the profilers to support two file formats: text and native. The native format is whatever on-disk representation the profiler wants to support, I think this will mostly be bitcode files, but it could be anything the profiler wants to support. To do this, every profiler must implement the SampleProfile::loadNative() function. The text format is mostly meant for debugging. Records are separated by newlines, but each profiler is free to interpret records as it sees fit. Profilers must implement the SampleProfile::loadText() function. Finally, the pass will call SampleProfile::emitAnnotations() for each function in the current translation unit. This function needs to translate the loaded profile into IR metadata, which the analyzer will later be able to use. This patch implements the first steps towards the above design. I've implemented a sample-based flat profiler. The format of the profile is fairly simplistic. Each sampled function contains a list of relative line locations (from the start of the function) together with a count representing how many samples were collected at that line during execution. I generate this profile using perf and a separate converter tool. Currently, I have only implemented a text format for these profiles. I am interested in initial feedback to the whole approach before I send the other parts of the implementation for review. This patch implements: - The SampleProfileLoader pass. - The base ExternalProfile class with the core interface. - A SampleProfile sub-class using the above interface. The profiler generates branch weight metadata on every branch instructions that matches the profiles. - A text loader class to assist the implementation of SampleProfile::loadText(). - Basic unit tests for the pass. Additionally, the patch uses profile information to compute branch weights based on instruction samples. This patch converts instruction samples into branch weights. It does a fairly simplistic conversion: Given a multi-way branch instruction, it calculates the weight of each branch based on the maximum sample count gathered from each target basic block. Note that this assignment of branch weights is somewhat lossy and can be misleading. If a basic block has more than one incoming branch, all the incoming branches will get the same weight. In reality, it may be that only one of them is the most heavily taken branch. I will adjust this assignment in subsequent patches. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@194566 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
