aad9c3f17a Fast fix for PR12343:
http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=12343

We have not trivial way for splitting edges that are goes from indirect branch. We can do it with some tricks, but it should be additionally discussed. And it is still dangerous due to difficulty of indirect branches controlling.

Fix forbids this case for unswitching.

6052eef8bd Fix a pretty scary bug I introduced into the always inliner with
a single missing character. Somehow, this had gone untested. I've added
tests for returns-twice logic specifically with the always-inliner that
would have caught this, and fixed the bug.

Thanks to Matt for the careful review and spotting this!!! =D

f2286b0152 Initial commit for the rewrite of the inline cost analysis to operate
on a per-callsite walk of the called function's instructions, in
breadth-first order over the potentially reachable set of basic blocks.

This is a major shift in how inline cost analysis works to improve the
accuracy and rationality of inlining decisions. A brief outline of the
algorithm this moves to:

- Build a simplification mapping based on the callsite arguments to the
  function arguments.
- Push the entry block onto a worklist of potentially-live basic blocks.
- Pop the first block off of the *front* of the worklist (for
  breadth-first ordering) and walk its instructions using a custom
  InstVisitor.
- For each instruction's operands, re-map them based on the
  simplification mappings available for the given callsite.
- Compute any simplification possible of the instruction after
  re-mapping, and store that back int othe simplification mapping.
- Compute any bonuses, costs, or other impacts of the instruction on the
  cost metric.
- When the terminator is reached, replace any conditional value in the
  terminator with any simplifications from the mapping we have, and add
  any successors which are not proven to be dead from these
  simplifications to the worklist.
- Pop the next block off of the front of the worklist, and repeat.
- As soon as the cost of inlining exceeds the threshold for the
  callsite, stop analyzing the function in order to bound cost.

The primary goal of this algorithm is to perfectly handle dead code
paths. We do not want any code in trivially dead code paths to impact
inlining decisions. The previous metric was *extremely* flawed here, and
would always subtract the average cost of two successors of
a conditional branch when it was proven to become an unconditional
branch at the callsite. There was no handling of wildly different costs
between the two successors, which would cause inlining when the path
actually taken was too large, and no inlining when the path actually
taken was trivially simple. There was also no handling of the code
*path*, only the immediate successors. These problems vanish completely
now. See the added regression tests for the shiny new features -- we
skip recursive function calls, SROA-killing instructions, and high cost
complex CFG structures when dead at the callsite being analyzed.

Switching to this algorithm required refactoring the inline cost
interface to accept the actual threshold rather than simply returning
a single cost. The resulting interface is pretty bad, and I'm planning
to do lots of interface cleanup after this patch.

Several other refactorings fell out of this, but I've tried to minimize
them for this patch. =/ There is still more cleanup that can be done
here. Please point out anything that you see in review.

I've worked really hard to try to mirror at least the spirit of all of
the previous heuristics in the new model. It's not clear that they are
all correct any more, but I wanted to minimize the change in this single
patch, it's already a bit ridiculous. One heuristic that is *not* yet
mirrored is to allow inlining of functions with a dynamic alloca *if*
the caller has a dynamic alloca. I will add this back, but I think the
most reasonable way requires changes to the inliner itself rather than
just the cost metric, and so I've deferred this for a subsequent patch.
The test case is XFAIL-ed until then.

As mentioned in the review mail, this seems to make Clang run about 1%
to 2% faster in -O0, but makes its binary size grow by just under 4%.
I've looked into the 4% growth, and it can be fixed, but requires
changes to other parts of the inliner.

41e2073f62 Don't PRE compares.
CodeGenPrepare sinks compare instructions down to their uses to prevent
live flags and predicate registers across basic blocks.

PRE of a compare instruction prevents that, forcing the i1 compare
result into a general purpose register.  That is usually more expensive
than the redundant compare PRE was trying to eliminate in the first
place.

9d9e29b4a8 Switch the pointer-difference simplification logic to only work with
inbounds GEPs. This isn't really necessary for simplifying pointer
differences, but I'm planning to re-use the same code to simplify
pointer comparisons where it is necessary. Since real code almost
exclusively uses inbounds GEPs, it doesn't seem worth it to support the
extra complexity of turning it on and off. If anyone would like that
back, feel free to shout. Note that instcombine will still catch any of
these patterns.

f8c8a9cbb4 Teach the function cloner (and thus the inliner) to simplify PHINodes
aggressively. There are lots of dire warnings about this being expensive
that seem to predate switching to the TrackingVH-based value remapper
that is automatically updated on RAUW. This makes it easy to not just
prune single-entry PHIs, but to fully simplify PHIs, and to recursively
simplify the newly inlined code to propagate PHINode simplifications.

This introduces a bit of a thorny problem though. We may end up
simplifying a branch condition to a constant when we fold PHINodes, and
we would like to nuke any dead blocks resulting from this so that time
isn't wasted continually analyzing them, but this isn't easy. Deleting
basic blocks *after* they are fully cloned and mapped into the new
function currently requires manually updating the value map. The last
piece of the simplification-during-inlining puzzle will require either
switching to WeakVH mappings or some other piece of refactoring. I've
left a FIXME in the testcase about this.

d54f9a4c3b Move the instruction simplification of callsite arguments in the inliner
to instead rely on much more generic and powerful instruction
simplification in the function cloner (and thus inliner).

This teaches the pruning function cloner to use instsimplify rather than
just the constant folder to fold values during cloning. This can
simplify a large number of things that constant folding alone cannot
begin to touch. For example, it will realize that 'or' and 'and'
instructions with certain constant operands actually become constants
regardless of what their other operand is. It also can thread back
through the caller to perform simplifications that are only possible by
looking up a few levels. In particular, GEPs and pointer testing tend to
fold much more heavily with this change.

This should (in some cases) have a positive impact on compile times with
optimizations on because the inliner itself will simply avoid cloning
a great deal of code. It already attempted to prune proven-dead code,
but now it will be use the stronger simplifications to prove more code
dead.

fbab4a8c8a It's not possible to insert code immediately after an invoke in the
same basic block, and it's not safe to insert code in the successor
blocks if the edges are critical edges. Splitting those edges is
possible, but undesirable, especially on the unwind side. Instead,
make the bottom-up code motion to consider invokes to be part of
their successor blocks, rather than part of their parent blocks, so
that it doesn't push code past them and onto the edges. This fixes
PR12307.

b2442fc760 Rip out support for 'llvm.noinline'. This thing has a strange history...
It was added in 2007 as the first cut at supporting no-inline
attributes, but we didn't have function attributes of any form at the
time. However, it was added without any mention in the LangRef or other
documentation.

Later on, in 2008, Devang added function notes for 'inline=never' and
then turned them into proper function attributes. From that point
onward, as far as I can tell, the world moved on, and no one has touched
'llvm.noinline' in any meaningful way since.

It's time has now come. We have had better mechanisms for doing this for
a long time, all the frontends I'm aware of use them, and this is just
holding back progress. Given that it was never a documented feature of
the IR, I've provided no auto-upgrade support. If people know of real,
in-the-wild bitcode that relies on this, yell at me and I'll add it, but
I *seriously* doubt anyone cares.

correlated pairs of pointer arguments at the callsite. This is designed
to recognize the common C++ idiom of begin/end pointer pairs when the
end pointer is a constant offset from the begin pointer. With the
C-based idiom of a pointer and size, the inline cost saw the constant
size calculation, and this provides the same level of information for
begin/end pairs.

In order to propagate this information we have to search for candidate
operations on a pair of pointer function arguments (or derived from
them) which would be simplified if the pointers had a known constant
offset. Then the callsite analysis looks for such pointer pairs in the
argument list, and applies the appropriate bonus.

This helps LLVM detect that half of bounds-checked STL algorithms
(such as hash_combine_range, and some hybrid sort implementations)
disappear when inlined with a constant size input. However, it's not
a complete fix due the inaccuracy of our cost metric for constants in
general. I'm looking into that next.

Benchmarks showed no significant code size change, and very minor
performance changes. However, specific code such as hashing is showing
significantly cleaner inlining decisions.

6c0b3ac8ea When inlining a function and adding its inner call sites to the
candidate set for subsequent inlining, try to simplify the arguments to
the inner call site now that inlining has been performed.

The goal here is to propagate and fold constants through deeply nested
call chains. Without doing this, we loose the inliner bonus that should
be applied because the arguments don't match the exact pattern the cost
estimator uses.

fc72ae613a Teach instsimplify how to constant fold pointer differences.
Typically instcombine has handled this, but pointer differences show up
in several contexts where we would like to get constant folding, and
cannot afford to run instcombine. Specifically, I'm working on improving
the constant folding of arguments used in inline cost analysis with
instsimplify.

Doing this in instsimplify implies some algorithm changes. We have to
handle multiple layers of all-constant GEPs because instsimplify cannot
fold them into a single GEP the way instcombine can. Also, we're only
interested in all-constant GEPs. The result is that this doesn't really
replace the instcombine logic, it's just complimentary and focused on
constant folding.
