Currently, for vectorised loops that use the get.active.lane.mask
intrinsic we only use the mask for predicated vector operations,
such as masked loads and stores, etc. The loop itself is still
controlled by comparing the canonical induction variable with the
trip count. However, for some targets this is inefficient when it's
cheap to use the mask itself to control the loop.
This patch adds support for using the active lane mask for control
flow by:
1. Generating the active lane mask for the next iteration of the
vector loop, rather than the current one. If there are still any
remaining iterations then at least the first bit of the mask will
be set.
2. Extract the first bit of this mask and use this bit for the
conditional branch.
I did this by creating a new VPActiveLaneMaskPHIRecipe that sets
up the initial PHI values in the vector loop pre-header. I've also
made use of the new BranchOnCond VPInstruction for the final
instruction in the loop region.

The motivation here is to a) bring us closer into alignment with AArch64 under the assumption that codepath is better tested, and b) simplify pattern matching in an upcoming change.
The immediate impact is a significant IR reduction but a fairly minimal change in the generated assembly. Due to a difference in expansion behavior we get a saturating add vs an unsaturating one for the old code, but that's about it. This difference comes down to different handling of overflow, which doesn't seem to be possible here anyways, so the assembly codegen is arguably a minor regression. I don't expect that to matter in practice.

These three subtarget features are meant to control where MVE
instructions take 1 vs 2 vs 4 architectural beats. The mve1beat feature
is described as "Model MVE instructions as a 1 beat per tick
architecture", meaning MVE instruction will execute over 4 cycles.
mve4beat is the opposite where the entire 4 beats of the MVE instruction
execute in a single cycle. The costs for the two were backwards though,
not matching the cycle counts like they should. This patch switches the
costs on the two to bring them in-line with expectations.

The removed CHECK configurations are tested as well below, modulo the

removes a substantial amount of uneeded checks.
The tests are focused on code-gen for first-order recurrences. There are
plenty of tests specifically for runtime check generation. Using noalias
to avoid runtime checks slightly simplifies the test output and ensures
the checks focus on the relevant bits and ensures the checks focus on
the relevant bits and ensures the checks focus on the relevant bits and
ensures the checks focus on the relevant bits.

ConstantExpr::isSupportedBinOp() returns true. Uses of these methods

LLVMConstExactSDiv, LLVMConstURem and LLVMConstSRem are removed and

This patch replaces the tight hard cut-off for the number of runtime
checks with a more accurate cost-driven approach.
The new approach allows vectorization with a larger number of runtime
checks in general, but only executes the vector loop (and runtime checks) if
considered profitable at runtime. Profitable here means that the cost-model
indicates that the runtime check cost + vector loop cost < scalar loop cost.
To do that, LV computes the minimum trip count for which runtime check cost
+ vector-loop-cost < scalar loop cost.
Note that there is still a hard cut-off to avoid excessive compile-time/code-size
increases, but it is much larger than the original limit.
The performance impact on standard test-suites like SPEC2006/SPEC2006/MultiSource
is mostly neutral, but the new approach can give substantial gains in cases where
we failed to vectorize before due to the over-aggressive cut-offs.

At the moment, the same VPlan can be used code generation of both the
main vector and epilogue vector loop. This can lead to wrong results, if
the plan is optimized based on the VF of the main vector loop and then
re-used for the epilogue loop.
One example where this is problematic is if the scalar loops need to
execute at least one iteration, e.g. due to interleave groups.
To prevent mis-compiles in the short-term, disable optimizing exit
conditions for VPlans when using epilogue vectorization. The proper fix
is to avoid re-using the same plan for both loops, which will require
support for cloning plans first.
Fixes#56319.
I looked at canonicalizing in the other direction, but that causes
many potential regressions and infinite loops because we already
(possibly wrongly) canonicalize "trunc X to i1" into an and+icmp.
This has a data layout restriction to avoid creating illegal
mask instructions, but we could remove that if we can show
that the backend can undo this when needed.
The motivating example from issue #56119 is modeled by the
PhaseOrdering test.
At the moment LoopVersioning is only created for inner-loop
vectorization. This patch moves it to LVP::execute, which means it will
also be added for epilogue vectorization. As a consequence, the proper
noalias metadata is now also added to epilogue vector loops.
LVer will be moved to VPTransformState as follow-up.

This change is a bit subtle. If we have a type like <vscale x 1 x i64>, the vectorizer will currently reject vectorization. The reason is that a type like <1 x i64> is likely to get simply rescalarized, and the vectorizer doesn't want to be in the game of simple unrolling.
(I've given the example in terms of 1 x types which use a single register, but the same issue exists for any N x types which use N registers. e.g. RISCV LMULs.)
This change distinguishes scalable types from fixed types under the reasoning that converting to a scalable type isn't unrolling. Because the actual vscale isn't known until runtime, using a vscale type is potentially very profitable.
This makes an important, but unchecked, assumption. Specifically, the scalable type is assumed to only be legal per the cost model if there's actually a scalable register class which is distinct from the scalar domain. This is, to my knowledge, true for all targets which return non-invalid costs for scalable vector ops today, but in theory, we could have a target decide to lower scalable to fixed length vector or even scalar registers. If that ever happens, we'd need to revisit this code.
In practice, this patch unblocks scalable vectorization for ELEN types on RISCV.
Let me sketch one alternate implementation I considered. We could have restricted this to when we know a minimum value for vscale. Specifically, for the default +v extension for RISCV, we actually know that vscale >= 2 for ELEN types. However, doing it this way means we can't generate scalable vectors when using the various embedded vector extensions which have a minimum vscale of 1.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D128542
LoopVectorizer uses getVScaleForTuning for deciding how to discount the cost of a potential vector factor by the amount of work performed. Without the callback implemented, the vectorizer was defaulting to an estimated vscale of 1. This results in fixed vectorization looking falsely profitable (since it used the command line VLEN).
The test change is pretty limited since a) we don't have much coverage of the vectorizer with scalable vectors at all, and b) what little coverage we have mostly uses i64 element types. There's a separate issue with <vscale x 1 x i64> which prevents us from getting to this stage of costing, and thus only the one test explicitly written to avoid that is visible in the diff. However, this is actually a very wide impact change as it changes the practical vectorization result when both fixed and scalable is enabled to scalable.
As an aside, I think the vectorizer is at little too strongly biased towards scalable when both are legal, but we can explore that separately. For now, let's just get the cost model working the way it was intended.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D128547
We currently have a costing bug around the etype == ELEN case, so add otherwise duplicate tests to show test diffs as I work on other parts of costing.
If we have an unaligned uniform store, then when costing a scalable VF we can't emit code to scalarize it. (Well, we could, but we haven't implemented that case.) This change replaces an assert with a cost-model bailout such that we reject vectorization with the scalable VF instead of crashing.
createInductionResumeValues creates a phi node placeholder
without filling incoming values. Then it generates the incoming values.
It includes triggering of SCEV expander which may invoke SSAUpdater.
SSAUpdater has an optimization to detect number of predecessors
basing on incoming values if there is phi node.
In case phi node is not filled with incoming values - the number of predecessors
is detected as 0 and this leads to segmentation fault.
In other words SSAUpdater expects that phi is in good shape while
LoopVectorizer breaks this requirement.
The fix is just prepare all incoming values first and then build a phi node.

This brings us into alignment with AArch64, and in the process fixes a compiler crash bug in uniform store handling in the vectorizer.
Before the recent invalid cost bailout work, this would have also avoided crashes on invalid costs in some cases. I honestly think the vectorizer should gracefully bailout on uniform stores it can't use a scatter for, but it doesn't, so lets take the path of least resistance here. It's also possible that there are other vectorizer bugs AArch64 isn't seeing because of this hook; we don't want to be finding them either.

The potential benefit of doing this in VPlan is that this may help

There are further simplifications that can be applied as follow ups:
