The greedy rewriter is used in many different flows and it has a lot of
convenience (work list management, debugging actions, tracing, etc). But
it combines two kinds of greedy behavior 1) how ops are matched, 2)
folding wherever it can.
These are independent forms of greedy and leads to inefficiency. E.g.,
cases where one need to create different phases in lowering and is
required to applying patterns in specific order split across different
passes. Using the driver one ends up needlessly retrying folding/having
multiple rounds of folding attempts, where one final run would have
sufficed.
Of course folks can locally avoid this behavior by just building their
own, but this is also a common requested feature that folks keep on
working around locally in suboptimal ways.
For downstream users, there should be no behavioral change. Updating
from the deprecated should just be a find and replace (e.g., `find ./
-type f -exec sed -i
's|applyPatternsAndFoldGreedily|applyPatternsGreedily|g' {} \;` variety)
as the API arguments hasn't changed between the two.
The MLIR classes Type/Attribute/Operation/Op/Value support
cast/dyn_cast/isa/dyn_cast_or_null functionality through llvm's doCast
functionality in addition to defining methods with the same name.
This change begins the migration of uses of the method to the
corresponding function call as has been decided as more consistent.
Note that there still exist classes that only define methods directly,
such as AffineExpr, and this does not include work currently to support
a functional cast/isa call.
Caveats include:
- This clang-tidy script probably has more problems.
- This only touches C++ code, so nothing that is being generated.
Context:
- https://mlir.llvm.org/deprecation/ at "Use the free function variants
for dyn_cast/cast/isa/…"
- Original discussion at https://discourse.llvm.org/t/preferred-casting-style-going-forward/68443
Implementation:
This first patch was created with the following steps. The intention is
to only do automated changes at first, so I waste less time if it's
reverted, and so the first mass change is more clear as an example to
other teams that will need to follow similar steps.
Steps are described per line, as comments are removed by git:
0. Retrieve the change from the following to build clang-tidy with an
additional check:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/compare/main...tpopp:llvm-project:tidy-cast-check
1. Build clang-tidy
2. Run clang-tidy over your entire codebase while disabling all checks
and enabling the one relevant one. Run on all header files also.
3. Delete .inc files that were also modified, so the next build rebuilds
them to a pure state.
4. Some changes have been deleted for the following reasons:
- Some files had a variable also named cast
- Some files had not included a header file that defines the cast
functions
- Some files are definitions of the classes that have the casting
methods, so the code still refers to the method instead of the
function without adding a prefix or removing the method declaration
at the same time.

The patch adds operations to `BlockAndValueMapping` and renames it to `IRMapping`. When operations are cloned, old operations are mapped to the cloned operations. This allows mapping from an operation to a cloned operation. Example:
```
Operation *opWithRegion = ...
Operation *opInsideRegion = &opWithRegion->front().front();
IRMapping map
Operation *newOpWithRegion = opWithRegion->clone(map);
Operation *newOpInsideRegion = map.lookupOrNull(opInsideRegion);
```
Migration instructions:
All includes to `mlir/IR/BlockAndValueMapping.h` should be replaced with `mlir/IR/IRMapping.h`. All uses of `BlockAndValueMapping` need to be renamed to `IRMapping`.

Add outline-shape-computation pass. This pass his pass outlines the
shape computation part in high level IR by adding shape.func and
populate corresponding mapping information into ShapeMappingAnalysis.
