We just replaced SmallSet<T *, N> with SmallPtrSet<T *, N>, bypassing
the redirection found in SmallSet.h. With that, we no longer need to
include SmallSet.h in many files.
This patch replaces SmallSet<T *, N> with SmallPtrSet<T *, N>. Note
that SmallSet.h "redirects" SmallSet to SmallPtrSet for pointer
element types:
template <typename PointeeType, unsigned N>
class SmallSet<PointeeType*, N> : public SmallPtrSet<PointeeType*, N>
{};
We only have 140 instances that rely on this "redirection", with the
vast majority of them under llvm/. Since relying on the redirection
doesn't improve readability, this patch replaces SmallSet with
SmallPtrSet for pointer element types.
If the ControlFlowHub did not perform any change to the control flow,
there is no need to repair SSA, update the loop structure, and verify a
bunch of things. This is not completely NFC though, repairSSA introduced
PHI nodes with a single entry that are now missing.
My code went from 400+ seconds to 1 second, since no loop required the
exits to be unified, but there were many "complex" loops.
CreateControlFlowHub is a method that redirects control flow edges from a set of
incoming blocks to a set of outgoing blocks through a new set of "guard" blocks.
This is now refactored into a separate file with one enhancement: The input to
the method is now a set of branches rather than two sets of blocks.
The original implementation reroutes every edge from incoming blocks to outgoing
blocks. But it is possible that for some incoming block InBB, some successor S
might be in the set of outgoing blocks, but that particular edge should not be
rerouted. The new implementation makes this possible by allowing the user to
specify the targets of each branch that need to be rerouted.
This is needed when improving the implementation of FixIrreducible #101386.
Current use in FixIrreducible does not demonstrate this finer control over the
edges being rerouted. But in UnifyLoopExits, when only one successor of an
exiting block is an exit block, this refinement now reroutes only the relevant
control-flow through the edge; the non-exit successor is not rerouted. This
results in fewer branches and PHI nodes in the hub.
