The hoistRedundantVectorTransfers function does not verification of loop bounds when hoisting vector transfers. This is not safe in general, since it is possible that the loop will have zero trip count. This PR uses ValueBounds to verify that the lower bound is less than the upper bound of the loop before hoisting. Trip count verification is currently behind an option `verifyNonZeroTrip`, which is false by default. Zero trip count loops can arise in GPU code generation, where a loop bound can be dependent on a thread id. If not all threads execute the loop body, then hoisting out of the loop can cause these threads to execute the transfers when they are not supposed to. --------- Signed-off-by: Max Dawkins <max.dawkins@gmail.com>
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
