We want heuristics to be based on accurate data, but more importantly
we don't want llvm to behave randomly. A benign trunc inserted by an
upstream pass should not cause a wild swings in optimization
level. See PR11034. It's a general problem with threshold-based
heuristics, but we can make it less bad.

This changes loop unrolling to use the same mechanism for trip count
computation as indvars. This is a stronger check that tends to unroll
more loops. A very common side-effect is that many single iteration
loops will be removed sooner. The real goal was simply to remove
dependence on canonical IVs.
x86 is break even.
ARM performance changes to expect (+ is good):
External/SPEC/CFP2000/183.equake/183.equake +13%
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Dhrystone/fldry +21%
MultiSource/Applications/spiff/spiff +3%

The Puzzle regression is actually an improvement in loop optimization
that defeats GVN: rdar://problem/10065079.

SCEV unrolling can unroll loops with arbitrary induction variables. It
is a prerequisite for -disable-iv-rewrite performance. It is also
easily handles loops of arbitrary structure including multiple exits
and is generally more robust.
This is under a temporary option to avoid affecting default
behavior for the next couple of weeks. It is needed so that I can
checkin unit tests for updateUnloop.

will allow multiple context with different loop unroll parameters to run. This is a minor change and no effect
on existing application.

without whatever this was trying to do. When/if someone has the time to do some empirical
evaluations, it might be worth it to figure out what this code was trying to do and see if
it's worth resurrecting/fixing.

size of a loop header instead of its own code size estimator.
This allows it to handle bitcasts etc more precisely.

must be called in the pass's constructor. This function uses static dependency declarations to recursively initialize
the pass's dependencies.
Clients that only create passes through the createFooPass() APIs will require no changes. Clients that want to use the
CommandLine options for passes will need to manually call the appropriate initialization functions in PassInitialization.h
before parsing commandline arguments.
I have tested this with all standard configurations of clang and llvm-gcc on Darwin. It is possible that there are problems
with the static dependencies that will only be visible with non-standard options. If you encounter any crash in pass
registration/creation, please send the testcase to me directly.

perform initialization without static constructors AND without explicit initialization
by the client. For the moment, passes are required to initialize both their
(potential) dependencies and any passes they preserve. I hope to be able to relax
the latter requirement in the future.

register pressure and thus excess spills, which we don't currently recover from well. This should
be re-evaluated in the future if our ability to generate good spills/splits improves.
Partial fix for <rdar://problem/7635585>.

not unrolling loops that contain calls that would be better off getting inlined. This mostly
comes up when an interleaved devirtualization pass has devirtualized a call which the inliner
will inline on a future pass. Thus, rather than blocking all loops containing calls, add
a metric for "inline candidate calls" and block loops containing those instead.

unrolling threshold to the optimize-for-size threshold. Basically, for loops containing calls, unrolling
can still be profitable as long as the loop is REALLY small.

The threshold value of 50 is arbitrary, and I chose it simply by analogy to the inlining thresholds, where
the baseline unrolling threshold is slightly smaller than the baseline inlining threshold. This could
undoubtedly use some tuning.

dependence on DominanceFrontier. Instead, add an explicit DominanceFrontier
pass in StandardPasses.h to ensure that it gets scheduled at the right
time.
Declare that loop unrolling preserves ScalarEvolution, and shuffle some
getAnalysisUsages.
This eliminates one LoopSimplify and one LCCSA run in the standard
compile opts sequence.
