Motivation here is to unblock LSRs ability to use ICmpZero uses - the major effect of which is to enable count down IVs. The test changes reflect this goal, but the potential impact is much broader since this isn't a change in LSR at all. SCEVExpander needs(*) to prove that expanding the expression is safe anywhere the SCEV expression is valid. In general, we can't expand any node which might fault (or exhibit UB) unless we can either a) prove it won't fault, or b) guard the faulting case. We'd been allowing non-zero constants here; this change extends it to non-zero values. vscale is never zero. This is already implemented in ValueTracking, and this change just adds the same logic in SCEV's range computation (which in turn drives isKnownNonZero). We should common up some logic here, but let's do that in separate changes. (*) As an aside, "needs" is such an interesting word here. First, we don't actually need to guard this at all; we could choose to emit a select for the RHS of ever udiv and remove this code entirely. Secondly, the property being checked here is way too strong. What the client actually needs is to expand the SCEV at some particular point in some particular loop. In the examples, the original urem dominates that loop and yet we completely ignore that information when analyzing legality. I don't plan to actively pursue either direction, just noting it for future reference. Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D129710
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
This directory and its sub-directories contain the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The README briefly describes how to get started with building LLVM. For more information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.
Getting Started with the LLVM System
Taken from here.
Overview
Welcome to the LLVM project!
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. It also contains basic regression tests.
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.
Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM
The LLVM Getting Started documentation may be out of date. The Clang Getting Started page might have more accurate information.
This is an example work-flow and configuration to get and build the LLVM source:
-
Checkout LLVM (including related sub-projects like Clang):
-
git clone https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git -
Or, on windows,
git clone --config core.autocrlf=false https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git
-
-
Configure and build LLVM and Clang:
-
cd llvm-project -
cmake -S llvm -B build -G <generator> [options]Some common build system generators are:
Ninja--- for generating Ninja build files. Most llvm developers use Ninja.Unix Makefiles--- for generating make-compatible parallel makefiles.Visual Studio--- for generating Visual Studio projects and solutions.Xcode--- for generating Xcode projects.
Some common options:
-
-DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS='...'and-DLLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES='...'--- semicolon-separated list of the LLVM sub-projects and runtimes you'd like to additionally build.LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTScan include any of: clang, clang-tools-extra, cross-project-tests, flang, libc, libclc, lld, lldb, mlir, openmp, polly, or pstl.LLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMEScan include any of libcxx, libcxxabi, libunwind, compiler-rt, libc or openmp. Some runtime projects can be specified either inLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTSor inLLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES.For example, to build LLVM, Clang, libcxx, and libcxxabi, use
-DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang" -DLLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES="libcxx;libcxxabi". -
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=directory--- Specify for directory the full path name of where you want the LLVM tools and libraries to be installed (default/usr/local). Be careful if you install runtime libraries: if your system uses those provided by LLVM (like libc++ or libc++abi), you must not overwrite your system's copy of those libraries, since that could render your system unusable. In general, using something like/usris not advised, but/usr/localis fine. -
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=type--- Valid options for type are Debug, Release, RelWithDebInfo, and MinSizeRel. Default is Debug. -
-DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=On--- Compile with assertion checks enabled (default is Yes for Debug builds, No for all other build types).
-
cmake --build build [-- [options] <target>]or your build system specified above directly.-
The default target (i.e.
ninjaormake) will build all of LLVM. -
The
check-alltarget (i.e.ninja check-all) will run the regression tests to ensure everything is in working order. -
CMake will generate targets for each tool and library, and most LLVM sub-projects generate their own
check-<project>target. -
Running a serial build will be slow. To improve speed, try running a parallel build. That's done by default in Ninja; for
make, use the option-j NNN, whereNNNis the number of parallel jobs to run. In most cases, you get the best performance if you specify the number of CPU threads you have. On some Unix systems, you can specify this with-j$(nproc).
