The patch attempts to optimize a sequence of SIMD loads from the same
base pointer:
%0 = gep float*, float* base, i32 4
%1 = bitcast float* %0 to <4 x float>*
%2 = load <4 x float>, <4 x float>* %1
...
%n1 = gep float*, float* base, i32 N
%n2 = bitcast float* %n1 to <4 x float>*
%n3 = load <4 x float>, <4 x float>* %n2
For AArch64 the compiler generates a sequence of LDR Qt, [Xn, #16].
However, 32-bit NEON VLD1/VST1 lack the [Wn, #imm] addressing mode, so
the address is computed before every ld/st instruction:
add r2, r0, #32
add r0, r0, #16
vld1.32 {d18, d19}, [r2]
vld1.32 {d22, d23}, [r0]
This can be improved by computing address for the first load, and then
using a post-indexed form of VLD1/VST1 to load the rest:
add r0, r0, #16
vld1.32 {d18, d19}, [r0]!
vld1.32 {d22, d23}, [r0]
In order to do that, the patch adds more patterns to DAGCombine:
- (load (add ptr inc1)) and (add ptr inc2) are now folded if inc1
and inc2 are constants.
- (or ptr inc) is now recognized as a pointer increment if ptr is
sufficiently aligned.
In addition to that, we now search for all possible base updates and
then pick the best one.

Setting the right SDLoc on a newly-created zextload fixes a line table bug which resulted in non-linear stepping behavior. Several backend tests contained CHECK lines which relied on the IROrder inherited from the wrong SDLoc. This patch breaks that dependence where feasbile and regenerates test cases where not. In some cases, changing a node's IROrder may alter register allocation and spill behavior. This can affect performance. I have chosen not to prevent this by applying a "known good" IROrder to SDLocs, as this may hide a more general bug in the scheduler, or cause regressions on other test inputs. rdar://33755881, Part of: llvm.org/PR37262 Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D45995 llvm-svn: 331300
Before, we assumed that any ConstantInt offset was precisely the access width, so we could use the "[rN]!" form. ISelLowering only ever created that kind, but further simplification during combining could lead to unexpected constants and incorrect codegen. Should fix PR32658. llvm-svn: 300878
Later code expects the vector loads produced to be directly concatenable, which means we shouldn't pad anything except the last load produced with UNDEF. llvm-svn: 293088
Reapply r242500 now that the swift schedmodel includes LDRLIT. This is mostly done to disable the PostRAScheduler which optimizes for instruction latencies which isn't a good fit for out-of-order architectures. This also allows to leave out the itinerary table in swift in favor of the SchedModel ones. This change leads to performance improvements/regressions by as much as 10% in some benchmarks, in fact we loose 0.4% performance over the llvm-testsuite for reasons that appear to be unknown or out of the compilers control. rdar://20803802 documents the investigation of these effects. While it is probably a good idea to perform the same switch for the other ARM out-of-order CPUs, I limited this change to swift as I cannot perform the benchmark verification on the other CPUs.

This reverts commit r242500. It broke some internal tests and Matthias asked me to revert it while he is investigating. llvm-svn: 242553

Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.
A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)

One of several parallel first steps to remove the target type of pointers,
replacing them with a single opaque pointer type.
This adds an explicit type parameter to the gep instruction so that when the
first parameter becomes an opaque pointer type, the type to gep through is
still available to the instructions.
* This doesn't modify gep operators, only instructions (operators will be
handled separately)
* Textual IR changes only. Bitcode (including upgrade) and changing the
in-memory representation will be in separate changes.
* geps of vectors are transformed as:
getelementptr <4 x float*> %x, ...
->getelementptr float, <4 x float*> %x, ...
Then, once the opaque pointer type is introduced, this will ultimately look
like:
getelementptr float, <4 x ptr> %x
with the unambiguous interpretation that it is a vector of pointers to float.
* address spaces remain on the pointer, not the type:
getelementptr float addrspace(1)* %x
->getelementptr float, float addrspace(1)* %x
Then, eventually:
getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %x
Importantly, the massive amount of test case churn has been automated by
same crappy python code. I had to manually update a few test cases that
wouldn't fit the script's model (r228970,r229196,r229197,r229198). The
python script just massages stdin and writes the result to stdout, I
then wrapped that in a shell script to handle replacing files, then
using the usual find+xargs to migrate all the files.
update.py:
import fileinput
import sys
import re
ibrep = re.compile(r"(^.*?[^%\w]getelementptr inbounds )(((?:<\d* x )?)(.*?)(| addrspace\(\d\)) *\*(|>)(?:$| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$))")
normrep = re.compile( r"(^.*?[^%\w]getelementptr )(((?:<\d* x )?)(.*?)(| addrspace\(\d\)) *\*(|>)(?:$| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$))")

line += match.groups()[1]

return line
for line in sys.stdin:
if line.find("getelementptr ") == line.find("getelementptr inbounds"):

line = conv(re.match(ibrep, line), line)
elif line.find("getelementptr ") != line.find("getelementptr ("):
line = conv(re.match(normrep, line), line)
sys.stdout.write(line)
apply.sh:
for name in "$@"
do
python3 `dirname "$0"`/update.py < "$name" > "$name.tmp" && mv "$name.tmp" "$name"
rm -f "$name.tmp"
done
The actual commands:
From llvm/src:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh
From llvm/src/tools/clang:
find test/ -name *.mm -o -name *.m -o -name *.cpp -o -name *.c | xargs -I '{}' ../../apply.sh "{}"
From llvm/src/tools/polly:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh
After that, check-all (with llvm, clang, clang-tools-extra, lld,
compiler-rt, and polly all checked out).
The extra 'rm' in the apply.sh script is due to a few files in clang's test
suite using interesting unicode stuff that my python script was throwing
exceptions on. None of those files needed to be migrated, so it seemed
sufficient to ignore those cases.
