This is aimed at GPUs. It // currently works on simple if-then and if-then-else // patterns. // // Removing branches is not the only motivation for this // pass. E.g. consider this code and assume that there is no // addressing mode for multiplying by sizeof(*a): // // if (b > 0) // c = a[i + 1] // if (d > 0) // e = a[i + 2] // // turns into // // p = &a[i + 1]; // if (b > 0) // c = *p; // q = &a[i + 2]; // if (d > 0) // e = *q; // // which could later be optimized to // // r = &a[i]; // if (b > 0) // c = r[1]; // if (d > 0) // e = r[2]; // // Later passes sink back much of the speculated code that did not enable // further optimization. // // This pass is more aggressive than the function SpeculativeyExecuteBB in // SimplifyCFG. SimplifyCFG will not speculate if no selects are introduced and // it will speculate at most one instruction. It also will not speculate if // there is a value defined in the if-block that is only used in the then-block. // These restrictions make sense since the speculation in SimplifyCFG seems // aimed at introducing cheap selects, while this pass is intended to do more // aggressive speculation while counting on later passes to either capitalize on // that or clean it up. // // If the pass was created by calling // createSpeculativeExecutionIfHasBranchDivergencePass or the // -spec-exec-only-if-divergent-target option is present, this pass only has an // effect on targets where TargetTransformInfo::hasBranchDivergence() is true; // on other targets, it is a nop. // // This lets you include this pass unconditionally in the IR pass pipeline, but // only enable it for relevant targets. // //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// #include "llvm/Transforms/Scalar/SpeculativeExecution.h" #include "llvm/ADT/SmallPtrSet.h" #include "llvm/Analysis/GlobalsModRef.h" #include "llvm/Analysis/ValueTracking.h" #include "llvm/IR/Instructions.h" #include "llvm/IR/Module.h" #include "llvm/IR/Operator.h" #include "llvm/InitializePasses.h" #include "llvm/Support/CommandLine.h" #include "llvm/Support/Debug.h" using namespace llvm; #define DEBUG_TYPE "speculative-execution" // The risk that speculation will not pay off increases with the // number of instructions speculated, so we put a limit on that. static cl::opt SpecExecMaxSpeculationCost( "spec-exec-max-speculation-cost", cl::init(7), cl::Hidden, cl::desc("Speculative execution is not applied to basic blocks where " "the cost of the instructions to speculatively execute " "exceeds this limit.")); // Speculating just a few instructions from a larger block tends not // to be profitable and this limit prevents that.
