This patch adds a new VPlan transformation to hoist predicated loads, if
we can prove they execute unconditionally, i.e. there are 2 predicated
loads to the same address with complementary masks. Then we are
guaranteed to execute one of them on each iteration, allowing us to
remove the mask.
The transform groups masked replicating loads by their address SCEV,
then checks if there are 2 loads with complementary mask. If that is the
case, we check if there are any writes that may alias the load address
in the blocks between the first and last load with the same address.
The transforms operates after linearizing the CFG, but before
introducing replicate regions, which means this is just checking a chain
of consecutive blocks.
Currently this only uses noalias metadata to check for no-alias (using
the helpers added in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/166247).
Then we create an unpredicated VPReplicateRecipe at the position of the
first load, then replace all users of the grouped loads with it.

Create phi recipes for scalar resume value up front in addInitialSkeleton during initial construction. This will allow moving the remaining code dealing with resume values to VPlan transforms/construction.
PR: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/166099
This patch implements a transform to hoists single-scalar replicated
loads with invariant addresses out of the vector loop to the preheader
when scoped noalias metadata proves they cannot alias with any stores in
the loop.
This enables hosting of loads we can prove do not alias any stores in
the loop due to memory runtime checks added during vectorization.

Update VPlan to populate VPIRMetadata during VPInstruction construction
and use it when creating widened recipes, instead of constructing
VPIRMetadata from the underlying IR instruction each time.
This centralizes VPIRMetadata in VPInstructions and ensures metadata is
consistently available throughout VPlan transformations.

This patch updates various LLVM headers to properly add the `LLVM_ABI`
and `LLVM_ABI_FOR_TEST` annotations to build LLVM as a DLL on Windows.
This effort is tracked in #109483.
On RISC-V narrowInterleaveGroups doesn't kick in because the wrong
VectorRegWidth is passed to isConsecutiveInterleaveGroup.
narrowInterleaveGroups is always passed the RGK_FixedWidthVector
register size, but on RISC-V the RGK_ScalableVector size is twice as
large because we want to use LMUL 2. This causes the `GroupSize ==
VectorRegWidth` check to fail.
This fixes it by using the scalable register size whenever the VF is
scalable and plumbing it through as a potentially scalable TypeSize.
Note that this only makes a difference when tail folding is disabled, as
narrowInterleaveGroups can't handle EVL based IVs yet.
Currently the only way to enable the use of wide active lane masks is to pass
-enable-wide-lane-mask and force both interleaving & tail-folding with additional
flags. This patch changes selectInterleaveCount to consider interleaving if wide
lane masks were requested, although the feature remains off by default.
Move narrowInterleaveGroups to to general VPlan optimization stage.
To do so, narrowInterleaveGroups now has to find a suitable VF where all
interleave groups are consecutive and saturate the full vector width.
If such a VF is found, the original VPlan is split into 2:
a) a new clone which contains all VFs of Plan, except VFToOptimize, and
b) the original Plan with VFToOptimize as single VF.
The original Plan is then optimized. If a new copy for the other VFs has
been created, it is returned and the caller has to add it to the list of
candidate plans.
Together with https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/149702, this
allows to take the narrowed interleave groups into account when
computing costs to choose the best VF and interleave count.
One example where we currently miss interleaving/unrolling when
narrowing interleave groups is https://godbolt.org/z/Yz77zbacz

Move creation of the minimum iteration check for the epilogue vector
loop to VPlan. This is a first step towards breaking up and moving
skeleton creation for epilogue vectorization to VPlan.
It moves most logic out of EpilogueVectorizerEpilogueLoop: the minimum
iteration check is created directly in VPlan, connecting the check
blocks from the main vector loop is done as post-processing. Next steps
are to move connecting and updating the branches from the check blocks
to VPlan, as well as updating the incoming values for phis.
Test changes are improvements due to folding of live-ins.

Introduce a simple common-subexpression-elimination pass at the
VPlan-level, running late during the execution of the VPlan. The
long-term vision is to get rid of the legacy non-VPlan-based cse routine
in LV, but this patch doesn't yet fully subsume it.
This patch adds a new VPlan-based addMinimumIterationCheck, which
replaced the ILV version for the non-epilogue case.
The VPlan-based version constructs a SCEV expression to compute the
minimum iterations, use that to check if the check is known true or
false. Otherwise it creates a VPExpandSCEV recipe and emits a
compare-and-branch.
When using epilogue vectorization, we still need to create the minimum
trip-count-check during the legacy skeleton creation. The patch moves
the definitions out of ILV.

This changes the branch condition to use the AVL's backedge value
instead of the EVL-based IV.
This allows us to emit bnez on RISC-V and removes a use of the trip
count, which should reduce register pressure.
To match phis with VPlanPatternMatch I've had to relax the assert that
the number of operands must exactly match the pattern for the Phi
opcode, and I've copied over m_ZExtOrSelf from the LLVM IR
PatternMatch.h.
Fixes#151459
Move the logic to expand SCEVs directly to a late VPlan transform that
expands SCEVs in the entry block. This turns VPExpandSCEVRecipe into an
abstract recipe without execute, which clarifies how the recipe is
handled, i.e. it is not executed like regular recipes.
It also helps to simplify construction, as now scalar evolution isn't
required to be passed to the recipe.
Materialze Build(Struct)Vectors explicitly for VPRecplicateRecipes, to
serve their users requiring a vector, instead of doing so when unrolling
by VF.
Now we only need to implicitly build vectors in VPTransformState::get
for VPInstructions. Once they are also unrolled by VF we can remove the
code-path alltogether.

Materialize VF and VFxUF computation using VPInstruction
instead of directly creating IR.
This is one of the last few steps needed to model the full vector
skeleton in VPlan.
This is mostly NFC, although in some cases we remove some unused
computations.
PR: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/152879
A lot of time getCanonicalIV() is used to get the canonical IV type,
e.g. to instantiate a VPTypeAnalysis or to get the LLVMContext.
However VPTypeAnalysis has a constructor that takes the VPlan directly
and there's a method on VPlan to get the LLVMContext directly, so use
those instead where possible.
This lets us remove a constructor on VPTypeAnalysis.
Also remove an unused LLVMContext argument in UnrollState whilst we're
here.
Split up the not clearly named prepareForVectorization transform into
buildVPlan0, which adds the vector preheader, middle and scalar
preheader blocks, as well as the canonical induction recipes and sets
the trip count. The new transform is run directly after building the
plain CFG VPlan initially.
The remaining code handling early exits and adding the branch in the
middle block is renamed to handleEarlyExitsAndAddMiddleCheck and still
runs at the original position.
With the code movement, we only have to add the skeleton once to the
initial VPlan, and cloning will take care of the rest. It will also
enable moving other construction steps to work directly on VPlan0, like
adding resume phis.

Materialize the vector trip count computation using VPInstruction
instead of directly creating IR. This is one of the last few steps
needed to model the full vector skeleton in VPlan. It also simplifies
vector-trip count computations for scalable vectors, as we can re-use
the UF x VF computation.

Now that VPWidenPointerInductionRecipes are modelled in VPlan in
#148274, we can support them in EVL tail folding.
We need to replace their VFxUF operand with EVL as the increment is not
guaranteed to always be VF on the penultimate iteration, and UF is
always 1 with EVL tail folding.
We also need to move the creation of the backedge value to the latch so
that EVL dominates it.
With this we will no longer fail to convert a VPlan to EVL tail folding,
so adjust tryAddExplicitVectorLength to account for this. This brings us
to 99.4% of all vector loops vectorized on SPEC CPU 2017 with tail
folding vs no tail folding.
The test in only-compute-cost-for-vplan-vfs.ll previously relied on
widened pointer inductions with EVL tail folding to end up in a scenario
with no vector VPlans, so this also replaces it with an unvectorizable
fixed-order recurrence test from
first-order-recurrence-multiply-recurrences.ll that also gets discarded.
Explicitly compute the backedge-taken count using VPInstruction. This is
needed to model the full skeleton in VPlan.
NFC modulo some instruction re-ordering.
Loop regions require fixed-length steps and rounded-up trip counts, but
after dissolution creates explicit control flow, EVL loops can leverage
variable-length stepping with original trip counts.
This patch adds a post-dissolution transform pass to convert EVL loops
from fixed-length to variable-length stepping .
Materialize constant vector trip counts before ::execute, if the trip
count can be computed as Original (TC / (VF * UF)) * (VF * UF). For now
this excludes when the tail is folded or scalar epilogues are required.
This enables removing a number of redundant branches from the middle
block.
For now this is also only done when not vectorizing the epilogue, as the
simplification complicates stitching the 2 plans together.

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

## 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.
Connect SCEV and memory runtime check block directly in VPlan as
VPIRBasicBlocks, removing ILV::emitSCEVChecks and
ILV::emitMemRuntimeChecks.
The new logic is currently split across
LoopVectorizationPlanner::addRuntimeChecks which collects a list of
{Condition, CheckBlock} pairs and performs some checks and emits remarks
if needed. The list of checks is then added to VPlan in
VPlanTransforms::connectCheckBlocks.

In addBranchWeightToMiddleTerminator we attempt to add branch weights to
the middle block terminator. We pessimistically assume vscale=1, whereas
we can improve the estimate by using the value of vscale used for
tuning.
Explicitly unroll VPReplicateRecipes outside replicate regions by VF,
replacing them by VF single-scalar recipes. Extracts for operands are
added as needed and the scalar results are combined to a vector using a
new BuildVector VPInstruction.
It also adds a few folds to simplify unnecessary extracts/BuildVectors.
It also adds a BuildStructVector opcode for handling of calls that have
struct return types.
VPReplicateRecipe in replicate regions can will be unrolled as follow
up, turing non-single-scalar VPReplicateRecipes into 'abstract', i.e.
not executable.

The motivation of this PR is to make #115274 easier to implement, and
should allow us to add EVL support by just passing EVL to the VF
operand.
The current difficulty with widening IVs with EVL is that
VPWidenIntOrFpInductionRecipe generates its own backedge value. Since
it's a VPHeaderPHIRecipe the VF operand must be in the preheader, which
means we can't use the EVL since it's defined in the loop body.
The gist in this PR is to take the approach in #114305 and expand
VPWidenIntOrFpInductionRecipe into several recipes for the initial
value, phi and backedge value just before execution. I.e. this example:
```
vector.ph:
Successor(s): vector loop
<x1> vector loop: {
vector.body:
WIDEN-INDUCTION %i = phi %start, %step, %vf
...
EMIT branch-on-count ...
No successors
}
```
gets expanded to:
```
vector.ph:
...
vp<%induction.start> = ...
vp<%induction.increment> = ...
Successor(s): vector loop
<x1> vector loop: {
vector.body:
ir<%i> = WIDEN-PHI vp<%induction.start>, vp<%vec.ind.next>
...
vp<%vec.ind.next> = add ir<%i>, vp<%induction.increment>
EMIT branch-on-count ...
No successors
}
```
This allows us to a value defined in the loop in the backedge value, and
also means we can just reuse the existing backedge fixups in
VPlan::execute without having to specially handle it ourselves.
After this #115274 should just become a matter of setting the VF operand
to EVL (and building the increment step in the loop body, not the
preheader).
This reverts commit 0604dc199c019b23746f4a54885ba0c75569cdae.
The recommitted version addresses post-commit comments and adjusts the
place the branch weights are added. It now runs before VPlans are optimized
for VF and UF, which may remove the vector loop region, causing a crash
trying to get the middle block after that. Test case added in
72f99b75afc12bb.
Original message:
Manage branch weights for the BranchOnCond in the middle block in VPlan.
This requires updating VPInstruction to inherit from VPIRMetadata, which
in general makes sense as there are a number of opcodes that could take
metadata.
There are other branches (part of the skeleton) that also need branch
weights adding.

Building on top of https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/114305,
replace VPRegionBlocks with explicit CFG before executing.
This brings the final VPlan closer to the IR that is generated and
helps to simplify codegen.
It will also enable further simplifications of phi handling during
execution and transformations that do not have to preserve the
canonical IV required by loop regions. This for example could include
replacing the canonical IV with an EVL based phi while completely
removing the original canonical IV.

This reverts commit 793bb6b257fa4d9f4af169a4366cab3da01f2e1f.
The recommitted version contains a fix to make sure only the original
phis are processed in convertPhisToBlends nu collecting them in a vector
first. This fixes a crash when no mask is needed, because there is only
a single incoming value.
Original message:
This patch moves the logic to predicate and linearize a VPlan to a
dedicated VPlan transform. It mostly ports the existing logic directly.
There are a number of follow-ups planned in the near future to
further improve on the implementation:
* Edge and block masks are cached in VPPredicator, but the block masks
are still made available to VPRecipeBuilder, so they can be accessed
during recipe construction. As a follow-up, this should be replaced by
adding mask operands to all VPInstructions that need them and use that
during recipe construction.
* The mask caching in a map also means that this map needs updating each
time a new recipe replaces a VPInstruction; this would also be handled
by adding mask operands.

This patch introduce two new recipes.
* VPExtendedReductionRecipe
- cast + reduction.
* VPMulAccumulateReductionRecipe
- (cast) + mul + reduction.
This patch also implements the transformation that match following
patterns via vplan and converts to abstract recipes for better cost
estimation.
* VPExtendedReduction
- reduce(cast(...))
* VPMulAccumulateReductionRecipe
- reduce.add(mul(...))
- reduce.add(mul(ext(...), ext(...))
- reduce.add(ext(mul(ext(...), ext(...))))
The converted abstract recipes will be lower to the concrete recipes
(widen-cast + widen-mul + reduction) just before recipe execution.
Note that this patch still relies on legacy cost model the calculate the
cost for these patters.
Will enable vplan-based cost decision in #113903.
Split from #113903.
Move early-exit handling up front to original VPlan construction, before
introducing early exits.
This builds on https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/137709, which
adds exiting edges to the original VPlan, instead of adding exit blocks
later.
This retains the exit conditions early, and means we can handle early
exits before forming regions, without the reliance on VPRecipeBuilder.
Once we retain all exits initially, handling early exits before region
construction ensures the regions are valid; otherwise we would leave
edges exiting the region from elsewhere than the latch.
Removing the reliance on VPRecipeBuilder removes the dependence on
mapping IR BBs to VPBBs and unblocks predication as VPlan transform:

Split off from #118638, this adds VPInstruction::StepVector, which
generates integer step vectors (0,1,2,...,VF). This is a step towards
eventually modelling all the separate parts of
VPWidenIntOrFpInductionRecipe in VPlan.
This is then used by VPWidenIntOrFpInductionRecipe, where we materialize
it just before unrolling so the operands stay in a fixed position.
The need for a separate operand in VPWidenIntOrFpInductionRecipe, as
well as the need to update it in
optimizeVectorInductionWidthForTCAndVFUF, should be removed with #118638
when everything is expanded in convertToConcreteRecipes.
