231308c545 Fix a bug where we would evaluate stores into linkonce objects which could be
potentially replaced at link-time.

cd27142cc8 Implement support for static constructors with calls in them. This is useful
because gccas runs globalopt before inlining.

This implements ctor-list-opt.ll:CTOR7

9cc5f42feb ConstantInt::get only works for arguments < 128.
SimplifyLibCalls probably has to be audited to make sure it does not make
this mistake elsewhere.  Also, if this code knows that the type will be
unsigned, obviously one arm of this is dead.

Reid, can you take a look into this further?

1d231ec0b0 Basic fix for PR#591; don't convert an fprintf() to an fwrite() if there
is a mismatch in their character type pointers (i.e. fprintf() prints an
array of ubytes while fwrite() takes an array of sbytes).
We can probably do better than this (such as casting the ubyte to an
sbyte).

a16d5a5185 This is a cleanup commit:
* Correct stale documentation in a few places
* Re-order the file to better associate things and reduce line count
* Make the pass thread safe by caching the Function* objects needed by the
  optimizers in the pass object instead of globally.
* Provide the SimplifyLibCalls pass object to the optimizer classes so they
  can access cached Function* objects and TargetData info
* Make sure the pass resets its cache if the Module passed to runOnModule
  changes
* Rename CallOptimizer LibCallOptimization. All the classes are named
  *Optimization while the objects are *Optimizer.
* Don't cache Function* in the optimizer objects because they could be used
  by multiple PassManager's running in multiple threads
* Add an optimization for strcpy which is similar to strcat
* Add a "TODO" list at the end of the file for ideas on additional libcall
  optimizations that could be added (get ideas from other compilers).

Sorry for the huge diff. Its mostly reorganization of code. That won't
happen again as I believe the design and infrastructure for this pass is
now done or close to it.

fcbdb9c85b Changes From Review Feedback:
* Have the SimplifyLibCalls pass acquire the TargetData and pass it down to
  the optimization classes so they can use it to make better choices for
  the signatures of functions, etc.
* Rearrange the code a little so the utility functions are closer to their
  usage and keep the core of the pass near the top of the files.
* Adjust the StrLen pass to get/use the correct prototype depending on the
  TargetData::getIntPtrType() result. The result of strlen is size_t which
  could be either uint or ulong depending on the platform.
* Clean up some coding nits (cast vs. dyn_cast, remove redundant items from
  a switch, etc.)
* Implement the MemMoveOptimization as a twin of MemCpyOptimization (they
  only differ in name).

20754ac069 * Merge get_GVInitializer and getCharArrayLength into a single function
named getConstantStringLength. This is the common part of StrCpy and
  StrLen optimizations and probably several others, yet to be written. It
  performs all the validity checks for looking at constant arrays that are
  supposed to be null-terminated strings and then computes the actual
  length of the string.
* Implement the MemCpyOptimization class. This just turns memcpy of 1, 2, 4
  and 8 byte data blocks that are properly aligned on those boundaries into
  a load and a store. Much more could be done here but alignment
  restrictions and lack of knowledge of the target instruction set prevent
  use from doing significantly more. That will have to be delegated to the
  code generators as they lower llvm.memcpy calls.

* Change signatures of OptimizeCall and ValidateCalledFunction so they are
  non-const, allowing the optimization object to be modified. This is in
  support of caching things used across multiple calls.
* Provide two functions for constructing and caching function types
* Modify the StrCatOptimization to cache Function objects for strlen and
  llvm.memcpy so it doesn't regenerate them on each call site. Make sure
  these are invalidated each time we start the pass.
* Handle both a GEP Instruction and a GEP ConstantExpr
* Add additional checks to make sure we really are dealing with an arary of
  sbyte and that all the element initializers are ConstantInt or
  ConstantExpr that reduce to ConstantInt.
* Make sure the GlobalVariable is constant!
* Don't use ConstantArray::getString as it can fail and it doesn't give us
  the right thing. We must check for null bytes in the middle of the array.
* Use llvm.memcpy instead of memcpy so we can factor alignment into it.
* Don't use void* types in signatures, replace with sbyte* instead.

* Allow each CallOptimizer to validate the function signature before

* Repeatedly loop over the functions until an iteration produces
  no more optimizations. This allows one optimization to insert a
  call that is optimized by another optimization.
* Implement the ConstantArray portion of the StrCatOptimization
* Provide a template for the MemCpyOptimization
* Make ExitInMainOptimization split the block, not delete everything
  after the return instruction.

b7c11e3966 Post-Review Cleanup:
* Fix comments at top of file
* Change algorithm for running the call optimizations from n*n to something
  closer to n.
* Use a hash_map to store and lookup the optimizations since there will
  eventually (or potentially) be a large number of them. This gets lookup
  based on the name of the function to O(1). Each CallOptimizer now has a
  std::string member named func_name that tracks the name of the function
  that it applies to. It is this string that is entered into the hash_map
  for fast comparison against the function names encountered in the module.
* Cleanup some style issues pertaining to iterator invalidation
* Don't pass the Function pointer to the OptimizeCall function because if
  the optimization needs it, it can get it from the CallInst passed in.
* Add the skeleton for a new CallOptimizer, StrCatOptimizer which will
  eventually replace strcat's of constant strings with direct copies.

  = G;

turning into:

a990d94330 If a function always returns a constant, replace all calls sites with that
constant value.  This makes the return value dead and allows for
simplification in the caller.

This implements IPConstantProp/return-constant.ll

11a3d7b7dd Argument promotion transforms functions to unconditionally load their
argument pointers.  This is only valid to do if the function already
unconditionally loaded an argument or if the pointer passed in is known
to be valid.  Make sure to do the required checks.

This fixed ArgumentPromotion/control-flow.ll and the Burg program.

30ba5690cf This patch implements two things (sorry).
First, it allows SRA of globals that have embedded arrays, implementing
GlobalOpt/globalsra-partial.llx.  This comes up infrequently, but does allow,
for example, deleting several stores to dead parts of globals in dhrystone.

Second, this implements GlobalOpt/malloc-promote-*.llx, which is the
following nifty transformation:

Basically if a global pointer is initialized with malloc, and we can tell
that the program won't notice, we transform this:

struct foo *FooPtr;
...
  FooPtr = malloc(sizeof(struct foo));
...
  FooPtr->A   FooPtr->B

Into:

struct foo FooPtrBody;
...
   FooPtrBody.A  FooPtrBody.B

This comes up occasionally, for example, the 'disp' global in 183.equake (where
the xform speeds the CBE version of the program up from 56.16s to 52.40s (7%)
on apoc), and the 'desired_accept', 'fixLRBT', 'macroArray', & 'key_queue'
globals in 300.twolf (speeding it up from 22.29s to 21.55s (3.4%)).

The nice thing about this xform is that it exposes the resulting global to
global variable optimization and makes alias analysis easier in addition to
eliminating a few loads.

708148e41f Just because we cannot completely eliminate all uses of a global, we can
still optimize away all of the indirect calls and loads, etc from it.
This turns code like this:

  if (G != 0)
    G();

into
   if (G != 0)
     ActualCallee();

This triggers a couple of times in gcc and libstdc++.

9b34a61019 Eliminate global pointers that are only stored a single value and null if
we know that all uses of the global will trap if the pointer contained is
null.  In this case, we forward substitute the stored value to any uses.

This has the effect of devirtualizing trivial globals in trivial cases.  For
example, 164.gzip contains this:

gzip.h:extern   int (*read_buf) OF((char *buf, unsigned size));
bits.c: read_buf  = file_read;
deflate.c:    lookahead = read_buf((char*)window,
deflate.c:        n = read_buf((char*)window+strstart+lookahead, more);

Since read_buf has to point to file_read at every use, we just replace
the calls through read_buf with a direct call to file_read.

This occurs in several benchmarks, including 176.gcc and 164.gzip.  Direct
calls are good and stuff.

e47ba74b07 Implement GlobalConstifier/trivialstore.llx, and also do some
simplifications of the resultant program to avoid making later passes
do it all.

This allows us to constify globals that just have the same constant that
they are initialized stored into them.

Suprisingly this comes up ALL of the freaking time, dozens of times in
SPEC, 30 times in vortex alone.

For example, on 256.bzip2, it allows us to constify these two globals:

%smallMode = internal global ubyte 0             ; <ubyte*> [#uses=8]
%verbosity = internal global int 0               ; <int*> [#uses=49]

Which (with later optimizations) results in the bytecode file shrinking
from 82286 to 69686 bytes!  Lets hear it for IPO :)

For the record, it's nuking lots of "if (verbosity > 2) { do lots of stuff }"
code.

int G; int *H = &G;

inlining another call site.  This also eliminates iterator invalidation issues.

619d3544b1 This change makes two big adjustments.
* Be a lot more accurate about what the effects will be when inlining a call
   to a function when an argument is an alloca.
 * Dramatically reduce the penalty for inlining a call in a large function.
   This heuristic made it almost impossible to inline a function into a large
   function, no matter how small the callee is.

9440db8866 Implement ArgumentPromotion/aggregate-promote.ll
This allows pointers to aggregate objects, whose elements are only read, to
be promoted and passed in by element instead of by reference.  This can
enable a LOT of subsequent optimizations in the caller function.

It's worth pointing out that this stuff happens a LOT of C++ programs, because
objects in templates are generally passed around by reference.  When these
templates are instantiated on small aggregate or scalar types, however, it is
more efficient to pass them in by value than by reference.

This transformation triggers most on C++ codes (e.g. 334 times on eon), but
does happen on C codes as well.  For example, on mesa it triggers 72 times,
and on gcc it triggers 35 times.  this is amazingly good considering that
we are using 'basicaa' so far.
