When deciding to widen narrow use, we may need to prove some facts
about it. For proof, the context is used. Currently we take the instruction
being widened as the context.
However, we may be more precise here if we take as context the point that
dominates all users of instruction being widened.

Some older code - and code copied from older code - still directly tested against the singelton result of SE::getCouldNotCompute. Using the isa<SCEVCouldNotCompute> form is both shorter, and more readable.
The function declaration with two parameters was introduced on Apr 16
2016 in commit f0d73f95c15f909c6034f1735632695248bb75a8 without a
corresponding definition.
This change introduces a new IR intrinsic named `llvm.pseudoprobe` for pseudo-probe block instrumentation. Please refer to https://reviews.llvm.org/D86193 for the whole story.
A pseudo probe is used to collect the execution count of the block where the probe is instrumented. This requires a pseudo probe to be persisting. The LLVM PGO instrumentation also instruments in similar places by placing a counter in the form of atomic read/write operations or runtime helper calls. While these operations are very persisting or optimization-resilient, in theory we can borrow the atomic read/write implementation from PGO counters and cut it off at the end of compilation with all the atomics converted into binary data. This was our initial design and we’ve seen promising sample correlation quality with it. However, the atomics approach has a couple issues:
1. IR Optimizations are blocked unexpectedly. Those atomic instructions are not going to be physically present in the binary code, but since they are on the IR till very end of compilation, they can still prevent certain IR optimizations and result in lower code quality.
2. The counter atomics may not be fully cleaned up from the code stream eventually.
3. Extra work is needed for re-targeting.
We choose to implement pseudo probes based on a special LLVM intrinsic, which is expected to have most of the semantics that comes with an atomic operation but does not block desired optimizations as much as possible. More specifically the semantics associated with the new intrinsic enforces a pseudo probe to be virtually executed exactly the same number of times before and after an IR optimization. The intrinsic also comes with certain flags that are carefully chosen so that the places they are probing are not going to be messed up by the optimizer while most of the IR optimizations still work. The core flags given to the special intrinsic is `IntrInaccessibleMemOnly`, which means the intrinsic accesses memory and does have a side effect so that it is not removable, but is does not access memory locations that are accessible by any original instructions. This way the intrinsic does not alias with any original instruction and thus it does not block optimizations as much as an atomic operation does. We also assign a function GUID and a block index to an intrinsic so that they are uniquely identified and not merged in order to achieve good correlation quality.
Let's now look at an example. Given the following LLVM IR:
```
define internal void @foo2(i32 %x, void (i32)* %f) !dbg !4 {
bb0:
%cmp = icmp eq i32 %x, 0
br i1 %cmp, label %bb1, label %bb2
bb1:
br label %bb3
bb2:
br label %bb3
bb3:
ret void
}
```
The instrumented IR will look like below. Note that each `llvm.pseudoprobe` intrinsic call represents a pseudo probe at a block, of which the first parameter is the GUID of the probe’s owner function and the second parameter is the probe’s ID.
```
define internal void @foo2(i32 %x, void (i32)* %f) !dbg !4 {
bb0:
%cmp = icmp eq i32 %x, 0
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 1)
br i1 %cmp, label %bb1, label %bb2
bb1:
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 2)
br label %bb3
bb2:
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 3)
br label %bb3
bb3:
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 4)
ret void
}
```

This is the same fix as 23aeadb89df38406dc4d929d08286f7ce31040eb,
just for CloneScopedAliasMetadata rather than PropagateCallSiteMetadata.
In this case the previous outcome was incorrectly dropped metadata,
as it was not part of the computed metadata map.
The real change in the test is that the first load now retains
metadata, the rest of the changes are due to changes in metadata
numbering.
The VMap also contains a mapping from Argument => Instruction,
where the instruction is part of the original function, not the
inlined one. The code was assuming that all the instructions in
the VMap were inlined.
This was a pre-existing problem for the loop access metadata, but
was extended to the more common noalias metadata by
27f647d117087ca11959e232e6443f4aee31e966, thus causing miscompiles.
There is a similar assumption inside CloneAliasScopeMetadata(), so
that one likely needs to be fixed as well.
This wasn't properly remapping the type like with the other
attributes, so this would end up hitting a verifier error after
linking different modules using byref.
With a function pass manager, it would insert debuginfo metadata before
getting to function passes while processing the pass manager, causing
debugify to skip while running the function passes.
Skip special passes + verifier + printing passes. Compared to the legacy
implementation of -debugify-each, this additionally skips verifier
passes. Probably no need to update the legacy version since it will be
obsolete soon.
This fixes 2 instcombine tests using -debugify-each under NPM.

the implementation is known-broken for certain inputs,
the bugreport was up for a significant amount of timer,
and there has been no activity to address it.
Therefore, just completely rip out all of misexpect handling.
I suspect, fixing it requires redesigning the internals of MD_misexpect.
Should anyone commit to fixing the implementation problem,
starting from clean slate may be better anyways.
This reverts commit 7bdad08429411e7d0ecd58cd696b1efe3cff309e,
and some of it's follow-ups, that don't stand on their own.
No longer rely on an external tool to build the llvm component layout.
Instead, leverage the existing `add_llvm_componentlibrary` cmake function and
introduce `add_llvm_component_group` to accurately describe component behavior.
These function store extra properties in the created targets. These properties
are processed once all components are defined to resolve library dependencies
and produce the header expected by llvm-config.

Sometimes the an instruction we are trying to widen is used by the IV
(which means the instruction is the IV increment). Currently this may
prevent its widening. We should ignore such user because it will be
dead once the transform is done anyways.

InstCombine canonicalizes 'sub nuw' instructions to 'add' without the
`nuw` flag. The typical case where we see it is decrementing induction
variables. For them, IndVars fails to prove that it's legal to widen them,
and inserts unprofitable `zext`'s.
This patch adds recognition of such pattern using SCEV.

We already do not unroll loops with vector instructions under MVE, but
that does not include the remainder loops that the vectorizer produces.
These remainder loops will be rarely executed and are not worth
unrolling, as the trip count is likely to be low if they get executed at
all. Luckily they get llvm.loop.isvectorized to make recognizing them
simpler.
We have wanted to do this for a while but hit issues with low overhead
loops being reverted due to difficult registry allocation. With recent
changes that seems to be less of an issue now.

From C11 and C++11 onwards, a forward-progress requirement has been
introduced for both languages. In the case of C, loops with non-constant
conditionals that do not have any observable side-effects (as defined by
6.8.5p6) can be assumed by the implementation to terminate, and in the
case of C++, this assumption extends to all functions. The clang
frontend will emit the `mustprogress` function attribute for C++
functions (D86233, D85393, D86841) and emit the loop metadata
`llvm.loop.mustprogress` for every loop in C11 or later that has a
non-constant conditional.
This patch modifies LoopDeletion so that only loops with
the `llvm.loop.mustprogress` metadata or loops contained in functions
that are required to make progress (`mustprogress` or `willreturn`) are
checked for observable side-effects. If these loops do not have an
observable side-effect, then we delete them.
Loops without observable side-effects that do not satisfy the above
conditions will not be deleted.

Currently, LoopDeletion refuses to remove dead loops with no exit blocks
because it cannot statically determine the control flow after it removes
the block. This leads to miscompiles if the loop is an infinite loop and
should've been removed.

This moves WidenIV from IndVarSimplify to Utils/SimplifyIndVar so that we have
createWideIV available as a generic helper utility. I.e., this is not only
useful in IndVarSimplify, but could be useful for loop transformations. For
example, motivation for this refactoring is the loop flatten transformation: if
induction variables in a loop nest can be widened, we can avoid having to
perform certain overflow checks, enabling this transformation.

This reverts the revert commit 408c4408facc3a79ee4ff7e9983cc972f797e176.
This version of the patch includes a fix for a crash caused by
treating ICmp/FCmp constant expressions as instructions.
Original message:
On some targets, like AArch64, vector selects can be efficiently lowered
if the vector condition is a compare with a supported predicate.
This patch adds a new argument to getCmpSelInstrCost, to indicate the
predicate of the feeding select condition. Note that it is not
sufficient to use the context instruction when querying the cost of a
vector select starting from a scalar one, because the condition of the
vector select could be composed of compares with different predicates.
This change greatly improves modeling the costs of certain
compare/select patterns on AArch64.
I am also planning on putting up patches to make use of the new argument in
SLPVectorizer & LV.
Previously, !noalias and !alias.scope metadata on the call site was
applied as part of CloneAliasScopeMetadata(), which short-circuits
if the callee does not use any noalias metadata itself. However,
these two things have no relation to each other.
Consistently apply !noalias and !alias.scope metadata by integrating
this into an existing function that handled !llvm.access.group and
!llvm.mem.parallel_loop_access metadata. The handling for all of
these metadata kinds essentially the same.
CallInst::updateProfWeight() creates branch_weights with i64 instead of i32.
To be more consistent everywhere and remove lots of casts from uint64_t
to uint32_t, use i64 for branch_weights.

And use it to model LLVM IR's `ptrtoint` cast.
This is essentially an alternative to D88806, but with no chance for
all the problems it caused due to having the cast as implicit there.
(see rG7ee6c402474a2f5fd21c403e7529f97f6362fdb3)
As we've established by now, there are at least two reasons why we want this:
* It will allow SCEV to actually model the `ptrtoint` casts
and their operands, instead of treating them as `SCEVUnknown`
* It should help with initial problem of PR46786 - this should eventually allow us
to not loose pointer-ness of an expression in more cases
As discussed in [[ https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46786 | PR46786 ]], in principle,
we could just extend `SCEVUnknown` with a `is ptrtoint` cast, because `ScalarEvolution::getPtrToIntExpr()`
should sink the cast as far down into the expression as possible,
so in the end we should always end up with `SCEVPtrToIntExpr` of `SCEVUnknown`.
But i think that it isn't the best solution, because it doesn't really matter
from memory consumption side - there probably won't be *that* many `SCEVPtrToIntExpr`s
for it to matter, and it allows for much better discoverability.

Use -0.0 instead of 0.0 as the start value. The previous use of 0.0
was fine for all existing uses of this function though, as it is
always generated with fast flags right now, and thus nsz.
This patch changes MergeBlockIntoPredecessor to skip the call to
RemoveRedundantDbgInstrs, in effect partially reverting D71480 due to
some compile-time issues spotted in LoopUnroll and SimplifyCFG.
The call to RemoveRedundantDbgInstrs appears to have changed the
worst-case behavior of the merging utility. Loosely speaking, it seems
to have gone from O(#phis) to O(#insts).
It might not be possible to mitigate this by scanning a block to
determine whether there are any debug intrinsics to remove, since such a
scan costs O(#insts).
So: skip the call to RemoveRedundantDbgInstrs. There's surprisingly
little fallout from this, and most of it can be addressed by doing
RemoveRedundantDbgInstrs later. The exception is (the block-local
version of) SimplifyCFG, where it might just be too expensive to call
RemoveRedundantDbgInstrs.
