Simplify the design of `RegionSuccessor`. There is no need to store the
`Operation *` pointer when branching out of the region branch op (to the
parent). There is no API to even access the `Operation *` pointer.
Add a new helper function `RegionSuccessor::parent` to construct a
region successor that points to the parent. This aligns the
`RegionSuccessor` design and API with `RegionBranchPoint`:
* Both classes now have a `parent()` helper function.
`ClassName::parent()` can be used in documentation to precisely describe
the source/target of a region branch.
* Both classes now use `nullptr` internally to represent "parent".
This API change also protects against incorrect API usage: users can no
longer pass an incorrect parent op. If a region successor is not a
region of the region branch op, it *must* branch out of region branch op
itself ("parent"). However, the previous API allowed passing other
operations. There was one such API violation in a [test
case](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/174945/files#diff-d5717e4a8d7344b2ff77762b8fa480bcfec0eeee97a86195c787d791a6217e13L71).
Also clean up the documentation to use the correct terminology (such as
"successor operands", "successor inputs") consistently.
Note: This PR effectively rolls back some changes from #161575. That PR
introduced `llvm::PointerUnion<Region *, Operation *>
successor{nullptr};`. It is unclear from the commit message why that
change was made.
Note for LLVM integration: You may have to slightly modify
`getSuccessorRegion` implementations: Replace
`RegionSuccessor(getOperation(), getOperation()->getResults())` with
`RegionSuccessor::parent(getResults())`.
This is still somehow a WIP, we have some issues with this interface
that are not trivial to solve. This patch tries to make the concepts of
RegionBranchPoint and RegionSuccessor more robust and aligned with their
definition:
- A `RegionBranchPoint` is either the parent (`RegionBranchOpInterface`)
op or a `RegionBranchTerminatorOpInterface` operation in a nested
region.
- A `RegionSuccessor` is either one of the nested region or the parent
`RegionBranchOpInterface`
Some new methods with reasonnable default implementation are added to
help resolving the flow of values across the RegionBranchOpInterface.
It is still not trivial in the current state to walk the def-use chain
backward with this interface. For example when you have the 3rd block
argument in the entry block of a for-loop, finding the matching operands
requires to know about the hidden loop iterator block argument and where
the iterargs start. The API is designed around forward-tracking of the
chain unfortunately.
Try to reland #161575 ; I suspect a buildbot incremental build issue.

I have seen misuse of the `hasEffect` API in downstream projects: users
sometimes think that `hasEffect == false` indicates that the operation
does not have a certain memory effect. That's not necessarily the case.
When the op does not implement the `MemoryEffectsOpInterface`, it is
unknown whether it has the specified effect. "false" can also mean
"maybe".
This commit clarifies the semantics in the documentation. Also adds
`hasUnknownEffects` and `mightHaveEffect` convenience functions. Also
simplifies a few call sites.
The `DeallocationState` class has been modified to keep a reference to an externally owned `SymbolTableCollection` class, to preserve the cached symbol tables across multiple insertions of deallocation instructions.
Allow customization of the `resolveCallable` method in the
`CallOpInterface`. This change allows for operations implementing this
interface to provide their own logic for resolving callables.
- Introduce the `resolveCallable` method, which does not include the
optional symbol table parameter. This method replaces the previously
existing extra class declaration `resolveCallable`.
- Introduce the `resolveCallableInTable` method, which incorporates the
symbol table parameter. This method replaces the previous extra class
declaration `resolveCallable` that used the optional symbol table
parameter.
This commit fixes a crash in the ownership-based buffer deallocation
pass when indirectly calling a function via SSA value. Such functions
must be conservatively assumed to be public.
Fixes#94780.
When compiling for GCC 8.x (< 8.4), SFINAE is disabled for
iterator_range constructor causing ambiguous resolution to construct an
OperandRange from a MutableOperatorRange, even in the presence of a
static_cast<OperatorRange>. This adds an explicit conversion method to
lift the ambiguity.
Tested with a full MLIR build with GCC 8.3.
Even when `private-function-dynamic-ownership` is set, ownership should
never be passed to the callee. This can lead to double deallocs (#77096)
or use-after-free in the caller because ownership is currently passed
regardless of whether there are any further uses of the buffer in the
caller or not.
Note: This is consistent with the fact that ownership is never passed to
nested regions.
This commit fixes#77096.
The buffer deallocation pass checks the IR ("operation preconditions")
to make sure that there is no IR that is unsupported. In such a case,
the pass signals a failure.
The pass now rejects all ops with unknown memory effects. We do not know
whether such an op allocates memory or not. Therefore, the buffer
deallocation pass does not know whether a deallocation op should be
inserted or not.
Memory effects are queried from the `MemoryEffectOpInterface` interface.
Ops that do not implement this interface but have the
`RecursiveMemoryEffects` trait do not have any side effects (apart from
the ones that their nested ops may have).
Unregistered ops are now rejected by the pass because they do not
implement the `MemoryEffectOpInterface` and neither do we know if they
have `RecursiveMemoryEffects` or not. All test cases that currently have
unregistered ops are updated to use registered ops.
This change makes block/region walkers consistent with operation
walkers. An operation walk enumerates the current operation. Similarly,
block/region walks should enumerate the current block/region.
Example:
```
// Current behavior:
op1->walk([](Operation *op2) { /* op1 is enumerated */ });
block1->walk([](Block *block2) { /* block1 is NOT enumerated */ });
region1->walk([](Block *block) { /* blocks of region1 are NOT enumerated */ });
region1->walk([](Region *region2) { /* region1 is NOT enumerated });
// New behavior:
op1->walk([](Operation *op2) { /* op1 is enumerated */ });
block1->walk([](Block *block2) { /* block1 IS enumerated */ });
region1->walk([](Block *block) { /* blocks of region1 ARE enumerated */ });
region1->walk([](Region *region2) { /* region1 IS enumerated });
```
Add a new attribute `bufferization.manual_deallocation` that can be
attached to allocation and deallocation ops. Buffers that are allocated
with this attribute are assigned an ownership of "false". Such buffers
can be deallocated manually (e.g., with `memref.dealloc`) if the
deallocation op also has the attribute set. Previously, the
ownership-based buffer deallocation pass used to reject IR with existing
deallocation ops. This is no longer the case if such ops have this new
attribute.
This change is useful for the sparse compiler, which currently
deallocates the sparse tensor buffers by itself.
This reverts commit aa9eb47da2e501d3505de733240eb89c9a0ea2cf.
It introduced a double free in a test case. Reverting to have some time
for fixing this and relanding later.
Inserting clones requires a lot of assumptions to hold on the input IR, e.g., all writes to a buffer need to dominate all reads. This is not guaranteed by one-shot bufferization and isn't easy to verify, thus it could quickly lead to incorrect results that are hard to debug. This commit changes the mechanism of how an ownership indicator is materialized when there is not already a unique ownership present. Additionally, we don't create copies of returned memrefs anymore when we don't have ownership. Instead, we insert assert operations to make sure we have ownership at runtime, or otherwise report to the user that correctness could not be guaranteed.
The buffer deallocation pipeline now works on modules and functions.
Also add extra test cases that run the buffer deallocation pipeline on
modules and functions. (Test cases that insert a helper function.)
* Properly handle the case where an op is deleted and thus no other
interfaces should be processed anymore.
* Don't add ownership indicator arguments and results to function
declarations
This is necessary to support deallocation of IR with gpu.launch
operations because it does not implement the RegionBranchOpInterface.
Implementing the interface would require it to support regions with
unstructured control flow and produced arguments/results.
In line with #66515, change `MutableArrayRange::begin`/`end` to
enumerate `OpOperand &` instead of `Value`. Also remove
`ForOp::getIterOpOperands`/`setIterArg`, which are now redundant.
Note: `MutableOperandRange` cannot be made a derived class of
`indexed_accessor_range_base` (like `OperandRange`), because
`MutableOperandRange::assign` can change the number of operands in the
range.
Since ownership based buffer deallocation requires a few passes to be run in a somewhat fixed sequence, it makes sense to have a pipeline for convenience (and to reduce the number of transform ops to represent default deallocation).
Add a method to the BufferDeallocationOpInterface that allows operations to implement the interface and provide custom logic to compute the ownership indicators of values it defines. As a demonstrating example, this new method is implemented by the `arith.select` operation.
This new interface allows operations to implement custom handling of ownership values and insertion of dealloc operations which is useful when an op cannot implement the interfaces supported by default by the buffer deallocation pass (e.g., because they are not exactly compatible or because there are some additional semantics to it that would render the default implementations in buffer deallocation invalid, or because no interfaces exist for this
kind of behavior and it's not worth introducing one plus a default implementation in buffer deallocation). Additionally, it can also be used to provide more efficient handling for a specific op than the interface based default
implementations can.
Add a new Buffer Deallocation pass with the intend to replace the old
one. For now it is added as a separate pass alongside in order to allow
downstream users to migrate over gradually. This new pass has the goal
of inserting fewer clone operations and supporting additional use-cases.
Please refer to the Buffer Deallocation section in the updated
Bufferization.md file for more information on how this new pass works.
