Now that support for masked loads/stores of interleave groups has
landed, we can enable the loop vectorizer to generate masked interleave
access where applicable.
This improves vectorization in several ways:
* Internal predication support: This enables interleave group
vectorization for loops with internal control flow predication, provided
all members of the group share the same predicate. Gaps in interleave
groups are still not efficiently handled by masking, so masking for gaps
remains disabled for now.
* Tail folding: This allows tail folding of loops with interleave groups
by using masking. Without this, vectorized loops with interleaves would
fall back to using separate gather/scatter accesses, which can be
significantly less efficient.
* Scalable vector support: Currently, only scalable vector types are
supported for masked interleave lowering. Fixed-length vector support
will be enabled in the future.
As interleave access is not yet supported with tail folding by EVL, that
functionality is temporarily disabled. We are going to create another
patch to support it.

This is being reverted as it is intermixed with another commit
(898bba311f180ed54de33dc09e7071c279a4942a) that needs to be reverted.
Adds initial support for copyable elements. This patch only models adds
and model copyable elements as add <element>, 0, i.e. uses identity
constants for missing lanes.
Only support for elements, which do not require scheduling, is added to
reduce size of the patch.
Fixed compile time regressions, updated release notes

When looking at some EVL tail folded code in SPEC CPU 2017 I noticed we
sometimes have both VPBlendRecipes and select VPInstructions in the same
plan:
EMIT vp<%active.lane.mask> = active lane mask vp<%5>, vp<%3>
EMIT vp<%7> = icmp ...
EMIT vp<%8> = logical-and vp<%active.lane.mask>, vp<%7>
BLEND ir<%8> = ir<%n.015> ir<%foo>/vp<%8>
EMIT vp<%9> = select vp<%active.lane.mask>, ir<%8>, ir<%n.015>
Since a blend will ultimately generate a chain of selects, we could fold
the blend into the select:
EMIT vp<%active.lane.mask> = active lane mask vp<%5>, vp<%3>
EMIT vp<%7> = icmp ...
EMIT vp<%8> = logical-and vp<%active.lane.mask>, vp<%7>
EMIT ir<%8> = select vp<%8>, ir<%foo>, ir<%n.015>
So as a first step, this patch expands blends to a series of select
instructions, which may allow them to be simplified further with other
select instructions.
Also clamp the max VF when maximizing vector bandwidth by the maximum
trip count. Otherwise we may end up choosing a VF for which the vector
loop never executes.

This reverts commit 25e97fc420f8ecc43fbabadfe9767b4163e6ee36.
The original commit was reverted due to a crash in llvm-test-suite. The
crash stemmed from a multiply reduction, which isn't supported for
scalable VFs on RISC-V. But for EVL tail folding we only support
scalable VFs, so when -force-tail-folding-style=data-with-evl is
specified we check to see if there's a scalable VF, and fall back to
data-without-lane-mask if there isn't.
This is done in setTailFoldingStyles, but previously we were only
checking if the forced tail folding style was legal, not the style
returned by TTI.
This version fixes this by checking the actual computed tail folding
style and not just the forced one, and adds a test for the crash in
llvm/test/Transforms/LoopVectorize/RISCV/low-trip-count.ll
Previously we fell back to just simplifying the branch cond to true
since one of the phis was a VPEVLBasedIVPHIRecipe. However this should
be fine to replace with its start value.
Currently we may try to vectorize the epilogue with a scalable VF, even
if there are no remaining iterations after the main vector loop with a
fixed VF.
Update selectEpilogueVectorizationFactor to always compute the number of
remaining iterations and exit early if no epilogue iterations remain.

This patch generalizes the existing foldBitOpOfBitcasts optimization in the VectorCombine pass to handle additional cast operations beyond just bitcast.
Fixes: [#146037](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/146037)
Summary
The optimization now supports folding bitwise operations (AND/OR/XOR)
with the following cast operations:
- bitcast (original functionality)
- trunc (truncate)
- sext (sign extend)
- zext (zero extend)
The transformation pattern is:
bitop(castop(x), castop(y)) -> castop(bitop(x, y))
This reduces the number of cast instructions from 2 to 1, improving
performance on targets where cast operations
are expensive or where performing bitwise operations on narrower types
is beneficial.
Implementation Details
- Renamed foldBitOpOfBitcasts to foldBitOpOfCastops to reflect broader
functionality
- Extended pattern matching to handle any CastInst operation
- Added validation for each cast type's constraints (e.g., trunc
requires source > dest)
- Updated cost model to use the actual cast opcode
- Preserves IR flags from original instructions
- Handles multi-use scenarios appropriately
Testing
- Added comprehensive tests in
test/Transforms/VectorCombine/bitop-of-castops.ll
- Tests cover all supported cast types with all bitwise operations
- Includes negative tests for unsupported patterns
- All existing VectorCombine tests pass
Update LV to vectorize maxnum/minnum reductions without fast-math flags,
by adding an extra check in the loop if any inputs to maxnum/minnum are
NaN, due to maxnum/minnum behavior w.r.t to signaling NaNs. Signed-zeros
are already handled consistently by maxnum/minnum.
If any input is NaN,
*exit the vector loop,
*compute the reduction result up to the vector iteration that contained
NaN inputs and
* resume in the scalar loop
New recurrence kinds are added for reductions using maxnum/minnum
without fast-math flags.

Currently if MaxBandwidth is enabled, the register pressure is checked
for each VF. This changes that to only perform said check if the VF
would not have otherwise been considered by the LoopVectorizer if
maxBandwidth was not enabled.
Theoretically this allows for higher VFs to be considered than would
otherwise be deemed "safe" (from a regpressure perspective), but more
concretely this reduces the amount of work done at compile-time when
maxBandwidth is enabled.
If all slices are small and end up with strided or even vectorization
states, better to not consider these candidates for the vectorization
and try to vectorize the whole bunch as gathered loads.

Update VPWidenRecipe::clone() to use the constructor w/o mandatory
Instruction, to facilitate cloning VPWidenRecipe without underlying
instructions.
Split off from https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/148239.
Simplify the handling of exit users by generating all extracts first
(safe option), and have FOR handling optimize the extracts, similar to
already done for reductions and inductions.
NFC modulo first-order recurrence extract order in middle block.
It assumed that the VF remains constant throughout the tree. That's not
always true. This meant that we could query the extraction cost for a
lane that is out of bounds.
While experimenting with re-vectorisation for AArch64, we ran into this
issue. We cannot add a proper AArch64 test as more changes would need to
be brought in.
This commit is only fixing the computation of VF and adding an assert.
Some tests were failing after adding the assert:
- foo() in llvm/test/Transforms/SLPVectorizer/X86/horizontal.ll
- test() in
llvm/test/Transforms/SLPVectorizer/X86/reduction-with-removed-extracts.ll
- test_with_extract() in
llvm/test/Transforms/SLPVectorizer/RISCV/segmented-loads.ll
In getScaledReductions for the case where we try to match a partial
reduction of the form:
%phi = phi i32 ...
...
%add = add i32 %phi, %zext
where
%zext = i8 %some_val to i32
we should ensure that %zext is actually inside the loop.

This preserves the nuw/nsw flags on widened truncs by checking for
TruncInst in the VPIRFlags constructor
The motivation for this is to be able to fold away some redundant truncs
feeding into uitofps (or potentially narrow the inductions feeding them)
These are identified by misc-include-cleaner. I've filtered out those
that break builds. Also, I'm staying away from llvm-config.h,
config.h, and Compiler.h, which likely cause platform- or
compiler-specific build failures.
Legal::isMaskRequired may be overly conservative and also return true
when no mask is actually required.
Use isPredicatedInst from the cost model instead, which fixes a
cost-model divergence between legacy and VPlan cost model where the
legacy cost model incorrectly assumed some loads were predicated.
Fixes https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/148431.
VPlanConstruction.cpp doesn't use IR pattern matching, so using
VPlanPatternMatch can be moved to the top-level, to slightly reduce the
diff in follow-up changes.
Interleaving does not currently work properly when vectorising loops
with uncountable early exits. Interleaving is already disabled for
normal vectorisation and for the pragma/hint - this patch also disables
it when using -force-vector-interleave.
Added emission of the 2-element reduction instead of 2 extracts + scalar
op, when trying to vectorize operands of the instruction, if it is more
profitable.
This should be generally good for a lot of LSV cases, but the attached
test demonstrates a specific compile time issue that appears in the
event where the `CaptureTracking` default max uses is raised.
Without using batching alias analysis, this test takes 6 seconds to
compile in a release build. With, less than a second. This is because
the mechanism that proves `NoAlias` in this case is very expensive
(`CaptureTracking.cpp`), and caching the result leads to 2 calls to that
mechanism instead of ~300,000 (run with -stats to see the difference)
This test only demonstrates the compile time issue if
`capture-tracking-max-uses-to-explore` is set to at least 1024, because
with the default value of 100, the `CaptureTracking` analysis is not
run, `NoAlias` is not proven, and the vectorizer gives up early.
## Purpose
Export a small number of private LLVM symbols so that unit tests can
still build/run when LLVM is built as a Windows DLL or a shared library
with default hidden symbol visibility.
## Background
The effort to build LLVM as a WIndows DLL is tracked in #109483.
Additional context is provided in [this
discourse](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/psa-annotating-llvm-public-interface/85307).
Some LLVM unit tests use internal/private symbols that are not part of
LLVM's public interface. When building LLVM as a DLL or shared library
with default hidden symbol visibility, the symbols are not available
when the unit test links against the DLL or shared library.
This problem can be solved in one of two ways:
1. Export the private symbols from the DLL.
2. Link the unit tests against the intermediate static libraries instead
of the final LLVM DLL.
This PR applies option 1. Based on the discussion of option 2 in
#145448, this option is preferable.
## Overview
* Adds a new `LLVM_ABI_FOR_TEST` export macro, which is currently just
an alias for `LLVM_ABI`.
* Annotates the sub-set of symbols under `llvm/lib` that are required to
get unit tests building using the new macro.
