After unrolling, there may be additional simplifications that can be
applied. One example is removing SCALAR-STEPS for the first part where
only the first lane is demanded.
This removes redundant adds of 0 from a large number of tests (~200),
many which I am still working on updating.

VPReductionRecipes take a RecurrenceDescriptor, but only use the
RecurKind and FastMathFlags in it when executing. This patch makes the
recipe more lightweight by stripping it to only take the latter two.
The motiviation for this is to simplify an upcoming patch to support
in-loop AnyOf reductions. For an in-loop AnyOf reduction we want to
create an Or reduction, and by using RecurKind we can create an
arbitrary reduction without needing a full RecurrenceDescriptor.
ExtractElements are no-ops for scalar VPlans. Don't introduce them in
handleUncountableEarlyExit if the plan has only a scalar VF.
This fixes a crash trying to compute the cost of ExtractElement after 26ecf978951b79.

Instead of executing the whole entry VPIRBB twice, first only execute
the VPExpandSCEVRecipes and replace their uses with the expanded
VPValue, which will be a live-in. This allows removing special logic in
VPExpandSCEVRecipe to support executing twice and allows moving the
ExpandedSCEVs map out of VPTransformState.
It will also allow adding other recipes to the entry VPBB in the future.
This patch adds a new narrowInterleaveGroups transfrom, which tries
convert a plan with interleave groups with VF elements to a plan that
instead replaces the interleave groups with wide loads and stores
processing VF elements.
This effectively is a very simple form of loop-aware SLP, where we
use interleave groups to identify candidates.
This initial version is quite restricted and hopefully serves as a
starting point for how to best model those kinds of transforms.
Depends on https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/106431.

createInductionAdditionalBypassValues is only used for epilogue
vectorization now. Move it out of ILV, which means we do not have to
thread through ExpandedSCEVs and also don't have to track the bypass
values in ILV. Instead, directly create them if needed after executing
the epilogue plan. This moves more the epilogue specific logic out of
the generic executePlan.
At the moment if we decide to enable tail-folding we do not include
the cost of generating the mask per VF. This can mean we make some
poor choices of VF, which is definitely true for SVE-enabled AArch64
targets where mask generation for fixed-width vectors is more
expensive than for scalable vectors.
I've added a VPInstruction::computeCost function to return the costs
of the ActiveLaneMask and ExplicitVectorLength operations.
Unfortunately, in order to prevent asserts firing I've also had to
duplicate the same code in the legacy cost model to make sure the
chosen VFs match up. I've wrapped this up in a ifndef NDEBUG for
now. The alternative would be to disable the assert completely when
tail-folding, which I imagine is just as bad.
New tests added:

This lands the main parts of the approved
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/106441 as suggested to break
things up a bit more.
Update initial VPlan-construction in VPlanNativePath in line with the
inner loop path, in that it bails out when encountering constructs it
cannot handle, like non-intrinsic calls.
Fixes https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/131071.
calculateRegisterUsage adds end points for each user of an instruction
to Ends and ignores instructions not added to it, i.e. instructions with
no users.
This means things like stores aren't included, which in turn means
values that are only used in stores are also not included for
consideration. This means we underestimate the register usage in cases
where the only users are things like stores.
Update the code to don't skip instructions without users (i.e. not in
Ends) if they have side-effects.

After #128718 lands there will be two ways of performing a reversed
widened memory access, either by performing a consecutive unit-stride
access and a reverse, or a strided access with a negative stride.
Even though both produce a reversed vector, only the former needs
VPReverseVectorPointerRecipe which computes a pointer to the last
element of each part. A strided reverse still needs a pointer to the
first element of each part so it will use VPVectorPointerRecipe.
This renames VPReverseVectorPointerRecipe to VPVectorEndPointerRecipe to
clarify that a reversed access may not necessarily need a pointer to the
last element.
A few test files seemed to have been edited after using the
update_test_checks.py script, which can make life hard for
developers when trying to update these tests in future
patches. Also, the tests still had this comment at the top
; NOTE: Assertions have been autogenerated by ...
which could potentially be confusing, since they've not
strictly been auto-generated.
I've attempted to keep the spirit of the original tests by
excluding all CHECK lines after the scalar.ph IR block,
however I've done this by using a new option called
--filter-out-after to the update_test_checks.py script.
In some cases, SCEV isn't able to prove that no wrap checks are needed,
while constant folding in SCEVExpander can. In those cases, we may leave
around IR for computing the trip count, which is unused at this point
but may be re-used later, triggering an assertion when trying to clean
up SCEVExp after vectorization.
Directly run the cleaner after expanding to a constant predicate to
prevent any generated code from being re-used.

After #129645, a first-order recurrence will no longer have it's splice
costed if the VPInstruction::FirstOrderRecurrenceSplice has no users and
is dead.
The legacy cost model didn't account for this, so this accounts for it
in planContainsAdditionalSimplifications to avoid the "VPlan cost model
and legacy cost model disagreed" assertion.
When pragma of loop transformations are encoded in LLVM IR, follow-up
metadata is used if multiple transformations are specified. They are
used to explicitly express the order of the transformations. However,
they are not properly processed on each transformation pass, so now only
the first one is attempted to be applied. This is a pre-commit to add a
test that causes the problem.

Make test target-dependent, as they will require access to a concrete
vector register width. Also add new tests for cost modeling, unrolling
and removing the vector loop region.
Create truncate if needed after 56b05a0d6. Note that this preserves the
original behavior pre 56b05a0d6. If truncate would strip any set bits,
then the explicit computation in the narrower type would wrap.
This updates VPWidenPointerInductionRecipe::execute to not use the
canonical IV to determine the insert point. Instead, it relies on the
current recipe position. In cases where this is not sufficient, set the
insert point to the first non-phi instruction, to ensure phis are
created together.
Currently fast() won't return true if all flags are set via setXXX,
which is surprising. Update setters to set all bits if needed to make
sure isFast() consistently returns the expected result.

These date back to when the non-intrinsic format of variable locations
was still being tested and was behind a compile-time flag, so not all
builds / bots would correctly run them. The solution at the time, to get
at least some test coverage, was to have tests opt-in to non-intrinsic
debug-info if it was built into LLVM.
Nowadays, non-intrinsic format is the default and has been on for more
than a year, there's no need for this flag to exist.
(I've downgraded the flag from "try" to explicitly requesting
non-intrinsic format in some places, so that we can deal with tests that
are explicitly about non-intrinsic format in their own commit).
Refactor the code to extract the first active element of a
vector in the early exit block, in preparation for PR #130766.
I've replaced the VPInstruction::ExtractFirstActive nodes with
a combination of a new VPInstruction::FirstActiveLane node and
a Instruction::ExtractElement node.
After #124093 we now support fixed-order recurrences with EVL tail
folding by replacing VPInstruction::FirstOrderRecurrenceSplice with a VP
splice intrinsic.
However the costing for the splice is currently done in
VPFirstOrderRecurrencePHIRecipe, so when we add the VP splice intrinsic
we end up costing it twice.
This fixes it by splitting out the cost for the splice into
FirstOrderRecurrenceSplice so that it's not duplicated when we replace
it.
We still have to keep the VF=1 checks in VPFirstOrderRecurrencePHIRecipe
since the splice might end up dead and discarded, e.g. in the test
@pr97452_scalable_vf1_for.
When visiting in-loop reduction links, we previously crashed if we had
an fmuladd with a blend after it in the chain. This fixes it by lifting
the existing blend folding to also handle fmuladd.
This also simplifies the code structure slightly for an upcoming patch I
want to post to handle in-loop AnyOf reductions.
I removed the PhiR->isInLoop() check since it's already guarded at the
top of the parent Header->Phis() loop.
Now that all phi nodes manage their incoming blocks through the
VPlan-predecessors, there should be no need for having a dedicate
recipe, it should be sufficient to allow PHI opcodes in VPInstruction.
Follow-ups will also migrate VPWidenPHIRecipe and possibly others,
building on top of https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/129388.

This patch restricts broadcast operations from being hoisted to the vector
preheader unless the basic block that defines the broadcasted value properly
dominates the vector preheader.
This prevents potential use-before-definition issues when the broadcasted
value is defined within the plan. VPDominatorTree is used to confirm this
restriction while still allowing safe hoisting for broadcasted values defined
outside the plan.
Issue https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/117139
Update and generalize materializeBroadcasts to also introduce explicit
broadcasts for VPValues defined in the Plans Entry block.
This fixes a crash when trying to insert the broadcasts generated by
VPTransformState::get after the generating instruction, which isn't
possible after invoke instructions.
Fixes https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/128838.
Slightly generalize materializeLiveInBroadcasts to also introduce
broadcasts for live-ins used in the vector preheader. This should cover
all live-ins.
If the live-in is used in the vector preheader, insert the broadcast at
the beginning of the block.
Following on from #125058, this patch takes into account the
work done in the vector early exit block when assessing the
profitability of vectorising the loop. I have renamed
areRuntimeChecksProfitable to isOutsideLoopWorkProfitable and
we now pass in the early exit costs. As part of this, I have
added the ExtractFirstActive opcode to VPInstruction::computeCost.
It's worth pointing out that when we assess profitability of the
loop we calculate a minimum trip count and compare that against
the *maximum* trip count. However, since the loop has an early
exit the runtime trip count can still end up being less than the
minimum. Alternatively, we may never take the early exit at all
at runtime and so we have the opposite problem of over-estimating
the cost of the loop. The loop vectoriser cannot simultaneously
take two contradictory positions and so I feel the only sensible
thing to do is be conservative and assume the loop will be more
expensive than loops without early exits.
We may find in future that we need to adjust the cost according to
the probability of taking the early exit. This will become even
more important once we support multiple early exits. However, we
have to start somewhere and we can always revisit this later.
This is the first of two PRs that attempts to improve the IR
generated in the exit blocks of vectorised loops with uncountable
early exits. In this PR I am improving the generated code for
users of induction variables in early exit loops that have a
unique exit block, when exiting via the latch.
I have moved some of the code for calculating the exit values in
latch exit blocks from `optimizeInductionExitUsers` into a new
function `optimizeLatchExitInductionUser`.
I intend to follow this up very soon with another patch to
optimise the code for induction users in the vector.early.exit
block.
Assert that we only generate runtime checks for inner loops in
emitMemRuntimeChecks, instead of returning nullptr in the VPlan-native
path, which is causing crashes and incorrect code.
This patch revises the cost model for sdiv/srem and draws its inspiration from the udiv/urem patch #122236
The typical codegen for the different scenarios has been mentioned as notes/comments in the code itself( this is done owing to lot of scenarios such that it would be difficult to mention them here in the patch description).
Create an empty VPlan first, then let the HCFG builder create a plain
CFG for the top-level loop (w/o a top-level region). The top-level
region is introduced by a separate VPlan-transform. This is instead of
creating the vector loop region before building the VPlan CFG for the
input loop.
This simplifies the HCFG builder (which should probably be renamed) and
moves along the roadmap ('buildLoop') outlined in [1].
As follow-up, I plan to also preserve the exit branches in the initial
VPlan out of the CFG builder, including connections to the exit blocks.
The conversion from plain CFG with potentially multiple exits to a
single entry/exit region will be done as VPlan transform in a follow-up.
This is needed to enable VPlan-based predication. Currently early exit
support relies on building the block-in masks on the original CFG,
because exiting branches and conditions aren't preserved in the VPlan.
So in order to switch to VPlan-based predication, we will have to
preserve them in the initial plain CFG, so the exit conditions are
available explicitly when we convert to single entry/exit regions.
Another follow-up is updating the outer loop handling to also introduce
VPRegionBlocks for nested loops as transform. Currently the existing
logic in the builder will take care of creating VPRegionBlocks for
nested loops, but not the top-level loop.
