From a combination of @llvm.assume calls (and perhaps through other means, such
as range metadata), it is possible that all bits of a return value might be
known. Previously, InstCombine did not check for this (which is understandable
given assumptions of constant propagation), but means that we'd miss simple
cases where assumptions are involved.
llvm-svn: 217346
This builds on r217342, which added the infrastructure to compute known bits
using assumptions (@llvm.assume calls). That original commit added only a few
patterns (to catch common cases related to determining pointer alignment); this
change adds several other patterns for simple cases.
r217342 contained that, for assume(v & b = a), bits in the mask
that are known to be one, we can propagate known bits from the a to v. It also
had a known-bits transfer for assume(a = b). This patch adds:
assume(~(v & b) = a) : For those bits in the mask that are known to be one, we
can propagate inverted known bits from the a to v.
assume(v | b = a) : For those bits in b that are known to be zero, we can
propagate known bits from the a to v.
assume(~(v | b) = a): For those bits in b that are known to be zero, we can
propagate inverted known bits from the a to v.
assume(v ^ b = a) : For those bits in b that are known to be zero, we can
propagate known bits from the a to v. For those bits in
b that are known to be one, we can propagate inverted
known bits from the a to v.
assume(~(v ^ b) = a) : For those bits in b that are known to be zero, we can
propagate inverted known bits from the a to v. For those
bits in b that are known to be one, we can propagate
known bits from the a to v.
assume(v << c = a) : For those bits in a that are known, we can propagate them
to known bits in v shifted to the right by c.
assume(~(v << c) = a) : For those bits in a that are known, we can propagate
them inverted to known bits in v shifted to the right by c.
assume(v >> c = a) : For those bits in a that are known, we can propagate them
to known bits in v shifted to the right by c.
assume(~(v >> c) = a) : For those bits in a that are known, we can propagate
them inverted to known bits in v shifted to the right by c.
assume(v >=_s c) where c is non-negative: The sign bit of v is zero
assume(v >_s c) where c is at least -1: The sign bit of v is zero
assume(v <=_s c) where c is negative: The sign bit of v is one
assume(v <_s c) where c is non-positive: The sign bit of v is one
assume(v <=_u c): Transfer the known high zero bits
assume(v <_u c): Transfer the known high zero bits (if c is know to be a power
of 2, transfer one more)
A small addition to InstCombine was necessary for some of the test cases. The
problem is that when InstCombine was simplifying and, or, etc. it would fail to
check the 'do I know all of the bits' condition before checking less specific
conditions and would not fully constant-fold the result. I'm not sure how to
trigger this aside from using assumptions, so I've just included the change
here.
llvm-svn: 217343
This change, which allows @llvm.assume to be used from within computeKnownBits
(and other associated functions in ValueTracking), adds some (optional)
parameters to computeKnownBits and friends. These functions now (optionally)
take a "context" instruction pointer, an AssumptionTracker pointer, and also a
DomTree pointer, and most of the changes are just to pass this new information
when it is easily available from InstSimplify, InstCombine, etc.
As explained below, the significant conceptual change is that known properties
of a value might depend on the control-flow location of the use (because we
care that the @llvm.assume dominates the use because assumptions have
control-flow dependencies). This means that, when we ask if bits are known in a
value, we might get different answers for different uses.
The significant changes are all in ValueTracking. Two main changes: First, as
with the rest of the code, new parameters need to be passed around. To make
this easier, I grouped them into a structure, and I made internal static
versions of the relevant functions that take this structure as a parameter. The
new code does as you might expect, it looks for @llvm.assume calls that make
use of the value we're trying to learn something about (often indirectly),
attempts to pattern match that expression, and uses the result if successful.
By making use of the AssumptionTracker, the process of finding @llvm.assume
calls is not expensive.
Part of the structure being passed around inside ValueTracking is a set of
already-considered @llvm.assume calls. This is to prevent a query using, for
example, the assume(a == b), to recurse on itself. The context and DT params
are used to find applicable assumptions. An assumption needs to dominate the
context instruction, or come after it deterministically. In this latter case we
only handle the specific case where both the assumption and the context
instruction are in the same block, and we need to exclude assumptions from
being used to simplify their own ephemeral values (those which contribute only
to the assumption) because otherwise the assumption would prove its feeding
comparison trivial and would be removed.
This commit adds the plumbing and the logic for a simple masked-bit propagation
(just enough to write a regression test). Future commits add more patterns
(and, correspondingly, more regression tests).

The special case did not work when run under -reassociate and can easily
be expressed by a further generalization of an existing pattern.

This reverts commit r216698 which reverted r216523 and r216598.
We would attempt to perform the transformation even if the match()
failed because, as a side effect, it would set V. This would trick us
into believing that we correctly found a place to correctly apply the
transform.
An additional test case was added to getelementptr.ll so that we might
not regress in the future.
llvm-svn: 216890
consider: (and (icmp X, Y), (and Z, (icmp A, B)))
It may be possible to combine (icmp X, Y) with (icmp A, B).
If we successfully combine, create an 'and' instruction with Z.
This fixes PR20814.
N.B. There is room for improvement after this change but I'm not
convinced it's worth chasing yet.

Several combines involving icmp (shl C2, %X) C1 can be simplified
without introducing any new instructions. Move them to InstSimplify;
while we are at it, make them more powerful.
llvm-svn: 216642
We try to perform this transform in InstSimplify but we aren't always
able to. Sometimes, we need to insert a bitcast if X and Y don't have
the same time.
llvm-svn: 216598
We supported transforming:
(gep i8* X, -(ptrtoint Y))
to:
(inttoptr (sub (ptrtoint X), (ptrtoint Y)))
However, this only fired if 'X' had type i8*. Generalize this to
support various types of different sizes. This results in much better
CodeGen, especially for pointers to packed structs.
llvm-svn: 216523
CFE, with -03, would turn:
bool f(unsigned x) {
bool a = x & 1;
bool b = x & 2;
return a | b;
}
into:
%1 = lshr i32 %x, 1
%2 = or i32 %1, %x
%3 = and i32 %2, 1
%4 = icmp ne i32 %3, 0
This sort of thing exposes a nasty pathology in GCC, ICC and LLVM.
Instead, we would rather want:
%1 = and i32 %x, 3
%2 = icmp ne i32 %1, 0
Things get a bit more interesting in the following case:
%1 = lshr i32 %x, %y
%2 = or i32 %1, %x
%3 = and i32 %2, 1
%4 = icmp ne i32 %3, 0
Replacing it with the following sequence is better:
%1 = shl nuw i32 1, %y
%2 = or i32 %1, 1
%3 = and i32 %2, %x
%4 = icmp ne i32 %3, 0
This sequence is preferable because %1 doesn't involve %x and could
potentially be hoisted out of loops if it is invariant; only perform
this transform in the non-constant case if we know we won't increase
register pressure.
llvm-svn: 216343
Consider:
%add = add nuw i32 %a, -16777216
%and = and i32 %add, 255
Regardless of whether or not we demand the sign bit of %add, we cannot
replace -16777216 with 2130706432 without also removing 'nuw' from the
instruction.
llvm-svn: 216273
Consider:
%add = add nsw i32 %a, -16777216
%and = and i32 %add, 255
Regardless of whether or not we demand the sign bit of %add, we cannot
replace -16777216 with 2130706432 without also removing 'nsw' from the
instruction.
This fixes PR20377.
llvm-svn: 216261
We can prove that a 'sub' can be a 'sub nsw' under certain conditions:
- The sign bits of the operands is the same.
- Both operands have more than 1 sign bit.
The subtraction cannot be a signed overflow in either case.
llvm-svn: 216037
While this might seem like an obvious canonicalization, there is one subtle problem with it. The result of the original expression
is undef when x is NaN (remember, fast math flags), but the result of the select is always defined when x is NaN. This means that the
new expression is strictly more defined than the original one. One unfortunate consequence of this is that the transform is not reversible!
It's always legal to make increase the defined-ness of an expression, but it's not legal to reduce it. Thus, targets that prefer the original
form of the expression cannot reverse the transform to recover it. Another way to think of it is that the transform has lost source-level
information (the fast math flags), which is undesirable.
llvm-svn: 215825
We can combne a mul with a div if one of the operands is a multiple of
the other:
%mul = mul nsw nuw %a, C1
%ret = udiv %mul, C2
=>
%ret = mul nsw %a, (C1 / C2)
This can expose further optimization opportunities if we end up
multiplying or dividing by a power of 2.
Consider this small example:
define i32 @f(i32 %a) {
%mul = mul nuw i32 %a, 14
%div = udiv exact i32 %mul, 7
ret i32 %div
}
which gets CodeGen'd to:
imull $14, %edi, %eax
imulq $613566757, %rax, %rcx
shrq $32, %rcx
subl %ecx, %eax
shrl %eax
addl %ecx, %eax
shrl $2, %eax
retq
We can now transform this into:
define i32 @f(i32 %a) {
%shl = shl nuw i32 %a, 1
ret i32 %shl
}
which gets CodeGen'd to:
leal (%rdi,%rdi), %eax
retq
This fixes PR20681.

We can only propagate the nsw bits if both subtraction instructions are
marked with the appropriate bit.
N.B. We only propagate the nsw bit in InstCombine because the nuw case
is already handled in InstSimplify.
This fixes PR20189.
llvm-svn: 214385
Before this patch we had
@a = weak global ...
but
@b = alias weak ...
The patch changes aliases to look more like global variables.
Looking at some really old code suggests that the reason was that the old
bison based parser had a reduction for alias linkages and another one for
global variable linkages. Putting the alias first avoided the reduce/reduce
conflict.
The days of the old .ll parser are long gone. The new one parses just "linkage"
and a later check is responsible for deciding if a linkage is valid in a
given context.
llvm-svn: 214355
While we can already transform A | (A ^ B) into A | B, things get bad
once we have (A ^ B) | (A ^ B ^ Cst) because reassociation will morph
this into (A ^ B) | ((A ^ Cst) ^ B). Our existing patterns fail once
this happens.
To fix this, we add a new pattern which looks through the tree of xor
binary operators to see that, in fact, there exists a redundant xor
operation.
What follows bellow is a correctness proof of the transform using CVC3.
$ cat t.cvc
A, B, C : BITVECTOR(64);
QUERY BVXOR(A, B) | BVXOR(BVXOR(B, C), A) = BVXOR(A, B) | C;
QUERY BVXOR(BVXOR(A, C), B) | BVXOR(A, B) = BVXOR(A, B) | C;
QUERY BVXOR(A, B) & BVXOR(BVXOR(B, C), A) = BVXOR(A, B) & ~C;
QUERY BVXOR(BVXOR(A, C), B) & BVXOR(A, B) = BVXOR(A, B) & ~C;
$ cvc3 < t.cvc

We previously supported the align attribute on all (pointer) parameters, but we
only used it for byval parameters. However, it is completely consistent at the
IR level to treat 'align n' on all pointer parameters as an alignment
assumption on the pointer, and now we wll. Specifically, this causes
computeKnownBits to use the align attribute on all pointer parameters, not just
byval parameters. I've also added an explicit parameter attribute test for this
to test/Bitcode/attributes.ll.
And I've updated the LangRef to document the align parameter attribute (as it
turns out, it was not documented at all previously, although the byval
documentation mentioned that it could be used).
There are (at least) two benefits to doing this:
- It allows enhancing alignment based on the pointer alignment after inlining callees.
- It allows simplification of pointer arithmetic.
