This patch canonicalizes getelementptr instructions with constant
indices to use the `i8` source element type. This makes it easier for
optimizations to recognize that two GEPs are identical, because they
don't need to see past many different ways to express the same offset.
This is a first step towards
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-replacing-getelementptr-with-ptradd/68699.
This is limited to constant GEPs only for now, as they have a clear
canonical form, while we're not yet sure how exactly to deal with
variable indices.
The test llvm/test/Transforms/PhaseOrdering/switch_with_geps.ll gives
two representative examples of the kind of optimization improvement we
expect from this change. In the first test SimplifyCFG can now realize
that all switch branches are actually the same. In the second test it
can convert it into simple arithmetic. These are representative of
common optimization failures we see in Rust.

With the soon-to-land new-debug-info storage model, it's going to be
important to use iterators for instruction insertion rather than
instruction pointers. This (single line in instcombine) is the last place
that trips up our internal testing for debug-info, where we insert a PHI
and it should be using an iterator.
`(ctpop (not x))` <-> `(sub nuw nsw BitWidth(x), (ctpop x))`. The
`sub` expression can sometimes be constant folded depending on the use
case of `(ctpop (not x))`.
This patch adds fold for the following cases:
`(add/sub/disjoint_or C, (ctpop (not x))`
-> `(add/sub/disjoint_or C', (ctpop x))`
`(cmp pred C, (ctpop (not x))`
-> `(cmp swapped_pred C', (ctpop x))`
Where `C'` depends on how we constant fold `C` with `BitWidth(x)` for
the given opcode.

This patch folds `switch(zext/sext(X))` into `switch(X)`.
The original motivation of this patch is to optimize a pattern found in
cvc5. For example:
```
%bf.load.i = load i16, ptr %d_kind.i, align 8
%bf.clear.i = and i16 %bf.load.i, 1023
%bf.cast.i = zext nneg i16 %bf.clear.i to i32
switch i32 %bf.cast.i, label %if.else [
i32 335, label %if.then
i32 303, label %if.then
]
if.then: ; preds = %entry, %entry
%d_children.i.i = getelementptr inbounds %"class.cvc5::internal::expr::NodeValue", ptr %0, i64 0, i32 3
%cmp.i.i.i.i.i = icmp eq i16 %bf.clear.i, 1023
%cond.i.i.i.i.i = select i1 %cmp.i.i.i.i.i, i32 -1, i32 %bf.cast.i
```
`%cmp.i.i.i.i.i` always evaluates to false because `%bf.clear.i` can
only be 335 or 303.
Folding `switch i32 %bf.cast.i` to `switch i16 %bf.clear.i` will help
`CVP` to handle this case.

canonicalizes `(gep i8, X, (ptrtoint Y) - (ptrtoint X))` into `bitcast
Y` iff `X` and `Y` have the same underlying object.
I find that the result of this pattern is usually used as an operand of
an icmp in some real-world applications. I think we can do the
canonicalization if the result is only used by icmps/ptrtoints.

As this pattern has been handled by the backends, the motivation of this
patch is to reduce the ref count of sdiv, which will enable more
optimizations.
In line with updated shufflevector semantics, this represents the
poison elements rather than undef elements now. This commit is a
pure rename, without any logic changes.
This adds support for using dominating conditions in computeKnownBits()
when called from InstCombine. The implementation uses a
DomConditionCache, which stores which branches may provide information
that is relevant for a given value.
DomConditionCache is similar to AssumptionCache, but does not try to do
any kind of automatic tracking. Relevant branches have to be explicitly
registered and invalidated values explicitly removed. The necessary
tracking is done inside InstCombine.
The reason why this doesn't just do exactly the same thing as
AssumptionCache is that a lot more transforms touch branches and branch
conditions than assumptions. AssumptionCache is an immutable analysis
and mostly gets away with this because only a handful of places have to
register additional assumptions (mostly as a result of cloning). This is
very much not the case for branches.
This change regresses compile-time by about ~0.2%. It also improves
stage2-O0-g builds by about ~0.2%, which indicates that this change results
in additional optimizations inside clang itself.

If the lshr operand is non-negative, we can treat it the same

but for now just perform the necessary ValueTracking query.

This patch updates the last few places in LLVM using findDbgValues that
don't also collect and handle DPValue objects. This largely involves
instcombine and mem2reg changes, and are largely mechanical, calling
existing utilities on collections of DPValues instead of just
DbgValuesInsts.
A variety of tests have had RemoveDIs RUN lines added to them to cover
these behaviours. We have some technical debt of the instcombine sinking
code for DPValues not being implemented yet, so I've left FIXME stubs
indicating that we intend to cover tests with RemoveDIs but haven't yet.
Part of the "RemoveDIs" project to remove debug intrinsics requires
passing block-positions around in iterators rather than as instruction
pointers, allowing some debug-info to reside in BasicBlock::iterator.
This means getInsertionPointAfterDef has to return an iterator, and as
it can return no-instruction that means returning an optional iterator.
This patch changes the signature for getInsertionPtAfterDef and then
patches up the various places that use it to handle the different type.
This would overall be an NFC patch, however in
InstCombinerImpl::freezeOtherUses I've started skipping any debug
intrinsics at the returned insert-position. This should not have any
_meaningful_ effect on the compiler output: at worst it means variable
assignments that are skipped will now cover the freeze instruction and
anything inserted before it, which should be inconsequential.
Sadly: this makes the function signature ugly. This is probably the
ugliest piece of fallout for the "RemoveDIs" work, but it serves the
overall purpose of improving compile times and not allowing `-g` to
affect compiler output, so should be worthwhile in the end.
With the current logic of `if(isFreeToInvert(Op)) return Not(Op)` its
fairly easy to either 1) cause regressions or 2) infinite loops
if the folds we have for `Not(Op)` ever de-sync with the cases we
know are freely invertible.
This patch adds `getFreeInverted` which is able to build the free
inverted op along with check for free inversion to alleviate this
problem.
It might seem obvious, but it's not a good idea to convert a
debug-intrinsic instruction into an UnreachableInst, as this means
things operate differently with and without the -g option. However this
can happen due to the "mutate the next instruction" API calls we make.
With RemoveDIs eliminating debug intrinsics, this behaviour is at risk
of changing, hence this patch ensures we only ever mutate the next _non_
debuginfo instruction into an Unreachable.
The tests instrumented with the --try... flag all exercise this, I've
added some metadata to a SCCP test to ensure it's exercised.
This patch re-implements a variety of debug-info maintenence functions
to use DPValues instead of DbgValueInst's: supporting the "new"
non-intrinsic representation of debug-info. As per [0], we need to have
parallel implementations of various utilities for a time, and these are
the most fundamental utilities used throughout the compiler.
I've added --try-experimental-debuginfo-iterators to a variety of RUN
lines: this is a flag that turns on "new debug-info" if it's built into
LLVM, and not otherwise. This should ensure that we have the same
behaviour for the same IR inputs, but using a different internal
representation. For the most part these changes affect SROA/Mem2Reg
promotion of dbg.declares into dbg.value intrinsics (now DPValues),
we're leaving dbg.declares as instructions until later in the day.
There's also some salvaging changes made.
I believe the tests that I've added cover almost all the code being
updated here. The only thing I'm not confident about is SimplifyCFG,
which calls rewriteDebugUsers down a variety of code paths. Those
changes can't immediately get full coverage as an additional patch is
needed that updates handling of Unreachable instructions, will upload
that shortly.

At the moment, all alloc-like functions are assumed to return non-null
pointers, if their return value is only used in a compare. This is based
on being allowed to substitute the allocation function with one that
doesn't fail to allocate the required memory.
aligned_alloc however must also return null if the required alignment
cannot be satisfied, so I don't think the same reasoning as above can be
applied to it.
This patch adds a bail-out for aligned_alloc calls to
isAllocSiteRemovable.
This is the floating-point analog of SimplifyDemandedBits. If we know
the edge cases are assumed impossible in uses, it's possible to prune
upstream edge case handling.
Start by only using this on returns in functions with nofpclass
returns (where I'm surprised there are no other combines), but this
can be extended to include any other nofpclass use or FPMathOperator
with flags.
Partially addresses issue #64870https://reviews.llvm.org/D158648
As per my proposal for how to eliminate debug intrinsics [0], for various
places in InstCombine prefer to insert using an instruction iterator rather
than an instruction pointer. This is so that we can eventually pass more
information in the iterator class. These call-sites where I've changed the
spelling are those that necessary to build a stage2clang to produce an
identical binary in the coming no-debug-intrinsics mode.

Continuing the patch series to get rid of debug intrinsics [0], instruction
insertion needs to be done with iterators rather than instruction pointers,
so that we can communicate information in the iterator class. This patch
adds an iterator-taking insertBefore method and converts various call sites
to take iterators. These are all sites where such debug-info needs to be
preserved so that a stage2 clang can be built identically; it's likely that
many more will need to be changed in the future.
At this stage, this is just changing the spelling of a few operations,
which will eventually become signifiant once the debug-info bearing
iterator is used.

As outlined in my proposal of how to get rid of debug intrinsics, this
patch adds a moveBefore method that signals the caller /intends/ the order
of moved instructions is to stay the same. This semantic difference has an
effect on debug-info, as it signals whether debug-info needs to move with
instructions or not.
The patch just replaces a few calls to moveBefore with calls to
moveBeforePreserving -- and the latter just calls the former, so it's all
NFC right now. A future patch will add an implementation of
moveBeforePreserving that takes action to correctly preserve debug-info,
but that's tightly coupled with our non-instruction debug-info
representation that's still being reviewed.

This is partial revert of cbca9ce91c6440f8815742b8a73a27aa81e806e6.
That commit removed the code guarding against min/max SPF patterns,
because those are now canonicalized to min/max intrinsics. However,
this is only true for integer min/max, while FP min/max can not
always be canonicalized to an intrinsic. As such, restore a
simplified version of the guard that handles only the FP case.
