Andrew Trick b12a754cce Added isValidRewrite() to check the result of ScalarEvolutionExpander.
SCEV may generate expressions composed of multiple pointers, which can
lead to invalid GEP expansion. Until we can teach SCEV to follow strict
pointer rules, make sure no bad GEPs creep into IR.
Fixes rdar://problem/9038671.

DIBuilder.cpp Today, the language front ends produces llvm.dbg.* intrinsics, used to encode arguments' debug info, in order any way, most of the times. However, if a front end mix-n-matches llvm.dbg.declare and llvm.dbg.value intrinsics to encode debug info for arguments then code generator needs a way to find argument order. 2011-03-01 22:58:13 +00:00

Analysis Opportunities:

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In test/Transforms/LoopStrengthReduce/quadradic-exit-value.ll, the
ScalarEvolution expression for %r is this:

  {1,+,3,+,2}<loop>

Outside the loop, this could be evaluated simply as (%n * %n), however
ScalarEvolution currently evaluates it as

  (-2 + (2 * (trunc i65 (((zext i64 (-2 + %n) to i65) * (zext i64 (-1 + %n) to i65)) /u 2) to i64)) + (3 * %n))

In addition to being much more complicated, it involves i65 arithmetic,
which is very inefficient when expanded into code.

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In formatValue in test/CodeGen/X86/lsr-delayed-fold.ll,

ScalarEvolution is forming this expression:

((trunc i64 (-1 * %arg5) to i32) + (trunc i64 %arg5 to i32) + (-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32)))

This could be folded to

(-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32))
