Use separate variable for adjusted scale used for GCD computations. This
fixes an issue where we incorrectly determined that all indices are
non-negative and returned noalias because of that.
Follow up to 91fa3565da16.
|
|
(V * Scale) % X may not produce the same result for any possible value
of V, e.g. if the multiplication overflows. This means we currently
incorrectly determine NoAlias in some cases.
This patch updates LinearExpression to track whether the expression
has NSW and uses that to adjust the scale used for alias checks.

Fix a bug introduced by f6f6f6375d1a4bced8a6e79a78726ab32b8dd879.
Now for empty PHIs, instead of crashing on assert(hasVal()) in
Optional's internals, we'll return NoAlias, as we did before that patch.

The AAMDNodes part of the MemoryLocation is not used by the BasicAA
cache, so don't store it. This reduces the size of each cache entry
from 112 bytes to 48 bytes.
|
|
BasicAA itself doesn't make use of AA metadata, but passes it
through to recursive queries and makes it part of the cache key.
Aliasing decisions that are based on AA metadata (i.e. TBAA and
ScopedAA) are based *only* on AA metadata, so checking them with
different pointer values or sizes is not useful, the result will
always be the same.
While this change is a mild compile-time improvement by itself,
the actual goal here is to reduce the size of AA cache keys in
a followup change.

This can only happen if offset types that are larger than the
pointer size are involved. The previous implementation did not
assert in this case because it initialized the APInts to the
width of one of the variables -- though I strongly suspect it
did not compute correct results in this case.

If the sizes of both memory locations are unknown, we can only
perform a check on the underlying objects. There's no point in
going through GEP decomposition in this case.

The current linear expression decomposition handles zext/sext by
decomposing the casted operand, and then checking NUW/NSW flags
to determine whether the extension can be distributed. This has
some disadvantages:
First, it is not possible to perform a partial decomposition. If
we have zext((x + C1) +<nuw> C2) then we will fail to decompose
the expression entirely, even though it would be safe and
profitable to decompose it to zext(x + C1) +<nuw> zext(C2)
Second, we may end up performing unnecessary decompositions,
which will later be discarded because they lack nowrap flags
necessary for extensions.
Third, correctness of the code is not entirely obvious: At a high
level, we encounter zext(x -<nuw> C) in the form of a zext on the
linear expression x + (-C) with nuw flag set. Notably, this case
must be treated as zext(x) + -zext(C) rather than zext(x) + zext(-C).
The code handles this correctly by speculatively zexting constants
to the final bitwidth, and performing additional fixup if the
actual extension turns out to be an sext. This was not immediately
obvious to me.
This patch inverts the approach: An ExtendedValue represents a
zext(sext(V)), and linear expression decomposition will try to
decompose V further, either by absorbing another sext/zext into the
ExtendedValue, or by distributing zext(sext(x op C)) over a binary
operator with appropriate nsw/nuw flags. At each step we can
determine whether distribution is legal and abort with a partial
decomposition if not. We also know which extensions we need to
apply to constants, and don't need to speculate or fixup.
|
|
While explicit sext instructions were handled correctly, the
implicit sext that occurs if the offset is smaller than the
pointer size blindly assumed that sext(X * Scale + Offset) is the
same as sext(X) * Scale + Offset, which is obviously not correct.
Fix this by extracting the code that handles linear expression
extension and reusing it for the implicit sext as well.
|
|
A number of variables need to be correctly initialized on entry
to GetLinearExpression() for the implementation to behave reasonably.
The fact that SExtBits can currenlty be non-zero on entry is a bug,
as demonstrated by the added test: For implicit sexts by the GEP,
we do currently skip legality checks.
|
|
Currently, we'd produce an incorrect decomposition, because we
already recursively called GetLinearExpression(), so the Scale=1,
Offset=0 will not necessarily be relative to the shl itself.
Now, this doesn't actually matter for functional correctness,
because such a shift is poison anyway, so its okay to return
an incorrect decomposition. It's still unnecessarily confusing
though, and we can easily avoid this by checking the bitwidth
earlier.
|
|
Nowrap flags between mul and shl differ in that mul nsw allows
multiplication of 1 * INT_MIN, while shl nsw does not. This means
that it is always fine to transfer shl nowrap flags to muls, but
not necessarily the other way around. In this case the NUW/NSW
results refer to mul/add operations, so it's fine to retain the
flags from the shl.

Rather than special-casing assume in BasicAA getModRefBehavior(),
do this one level higher, in the attribute handling of CallBase.
For assumes with operand bundles, the inaccessiblememonly attribute
applies regardless of operand bundles.
|
|
This fixes a regression reported on D99022: If a call has operand
bundles, then the inaccessiblememonly attribute on the function
will be ignored, as operand bundles can affect modref behavior in
the general case. However, for assume operand bundles in particular
this is not the case.
Adjust getModRefBehavior() to always report inaccessiblememonly
for assumes, regardless of presence of operand bundles.
|
|
These intrinsics don't need to be marked as arbitrary writing,
it's sufficient to write inaccessible memory (aka "side effect")
to preserve control dependencies. This means less special-casing
in BasicAA. This is intended as an alternative to D98925.

This patch is plumbing to support work towards the goal outlined in the recent llvm-dev post "[llvm-dev] RFC: Decomposing deref(N) into deref(N) + nofree".
The point of this change is purely to simplify iteration on other pieces on way to making the switch. Rebuilding with a change to Value.h is slow and painful, so I want to get the API change landed. Once that's done, I plan to more closely audit each caller, add the inference rules in their own patch, then post a patch with the langref changes and test diffs. The value of the command line flag is that we can exercise the inference logic in standalone patches without needing the whole switch ready to go just yet.

BasicAA stores a reference to LoopInfo inside. This imposes an implicit
requirement of keeping it up to date whenever we modify the IR (in particular,
whenever we modify terminators of blocks that belong to loops). Failing
to do so leads to incorrect state of the LoopInfo.
Because general AA does not require loop info updates and provides to API to
update it properly, the users of AA reasonably assume that there is no need to
update the loop info. It may be a reason of bugs, as example in PR43276 shows.
This patch drops dependence of BasicAA on LoopInfo to avoid this problem.
This may potentially pessimize the result of queries to BasicAA.

BasicAA knows how to analyze phis, but to control compile time, we're fairly limited in doing so. This patch loosens that restriction just slightly when there is exactly one phi input (after discounting induction variable increments). The result of this is that we can handle more cases around nested and sibling loops with pointer induction variables.
A few points to note.
* This is deliberately extremely restrictive about recursing through at most one input of the phi. There's a known general problem with BasicAA sometimes hitting exponential compile time already, and this patch makes every effort not to compound the problem. Once the root issue is fixed, we can probably loosen the restrictions here a bit.
* As seen in the test file, we're still missing cases which aren't *directly* based on phis (e.g. using the indvar increment). I believe this to be a separate problem and am going to explore this in another patch once this one lands.
* As seen in the test file, this results in the unfortunate fact that using phivalues sometimes results in worse quality results. I believe this comes down to an oversight in how recursive phi detection was implemented for phivalues. I'm happy to tackle this in a follow up change.

[mostly NFC]
This is almost purely NFC, it just fits more obviously in the flow of the code now that we've standardized on the index different approach. The non-NFC bit is that because of canceling the VariableOffsets in the subtract, we can now handle the case where both sides involve a common variable offset. This isn't an "interesting" improvement; it just happens to fall out of the natural code structure.
One subtle point - the placement of this above the BaseAlias check is important in the original code as this can return NoAlias even when we can't find a relation between the bases otherwise.
Also added some enhancement TODOs noticed while understanding the existing code.
Note: This is slightly different than the LGTMed version. I fixed the "inbounds" issue Nikita noticed with the original code in e6e5ef4 and rebased this to include the same fix.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D97520
|

This was pointed out in review of D97520 by Nikita, but existed in the original code as well.
The basic issue is that a decomposed GEP expression describes (potentially) more than one getelementptr. The "inbounds" derived UB which justifies this aliasing rule requires that the entire offset be composed of "inbounds" geps. Otherwise, as can be seen in the recently added and changes in this patch test, we can end up with a large commulative offset with only a small sub-offset actually being "inbounds". If that small sub-offset lies within the object, the result was unsound.
We could potentially be fancier here, but for the moment, simply be conservative when any of the GEPs parsed aren't inbounds.
|
|
For the cases of two clobbering loads and one loaded object is fully contained
in the second `BasicAAResult::aliasGEP` returns just `PartialAlias` that
is actually more common case of partial overlap, it doesn't say anything about
actual overlapping sizes.
AA users such as GVN and DSE have no functionality to estimate aliasing of GEPs
with non-constant offsets. The change stores estimated relative offsets so they
can be used further.

This is a simpler variant of D96647. It just adds a straightforward
depth limit with a high cutoff, without introducing complex logic
for BatchAA consistency. It accepts that we may cache a sub-optimal
result if the depth limit is hit.

but in the meantime this avoids stack overflows in a cheap way.

We can always look through single-argument (LCSSA) phi nodes when
performing alias analysis. getUnderlyingObject() already does this,
but stripPointerCastsAndInvariantGroups() does not. We still look
through these phi nodes with the usual aliasPhi() logic, but
sometimes get sub-optimal results due to the restrictions on value
equivalence when looking through arbitrary phi nodes. I think it's
generally beneficial to keep the underlying object logic and the
pointer cast stripping logic in sync, insofar as it is possible.
With this patch we get marginally better results:
aa.NumMayAlias | 5010069 | 5009861
aa.NumMustAlias | 347518 | 347674
aa.NumNoAlias | 27201336 | 27201528
...
licm.NumPromoted | 1293 | 1296
I've renamed the relevant strip method to stripPointerCastsForAliasAnalysis(),
as we're past the point where we can explicitly spell out everything
that's getting stripped.

At this point, we can treat the case of GEP/GEP aliasing and
GEP/non-GEP aliasing in essentially the same way. The only
differences are that we need to do an additional negative GEP base
check, and that we perform a bailout on unknown sizes for the
GEP/non-GEP case (the latter exists only to limit compile-time).
This change is not quite NFC due to the peculiar effect that
the DecomposedGEP for V2 can actually be non-trivial even if V2
is not a GEP. The reason for this is that getUnderlyingObject()
can look through LCSSA phi nodes, while stripPointerCasts() doesn't.
This can lead to slightly better results if single-entry phi nodes
occur inside a loop, where looking through the phi node via aliasPhi()
would subject it to phi cycle equivalence restrictions. It would
probably make sense to adjust pointer cast stripping (for AA) to
handle this case, and ensure consistent results.
|

For two GEPs with identical offsets, we currently first perform
a base address query without size information, and then if it is
MayAlias, perform another with size information. This is pointless,
as the latter query should produce strictly better results.
This was not quite true historically due to the way that NoAlias
assumptions were handled, but that issue has since been resolved.
|
|
We currently detect GEPs that have exactly the same indexes by
comparing the Offsets and VarIndices. However, the latter implicitly
performs equality comparisons between two values, which is not
generally legal inside BasicAA, due to the possibility of comparisons
across phi cycles.
I believe that in this particular instance this actually ends up being
unproblematic, at least I wasn't able to come up with any cases that
could result in an incorrect root query result.
In the interest of being defensive, compute GetIndexDifference earlier
(which knows how to handle phi cycles properly) and use the result of
that to determine whether the offsets are identical.

Rather than storing the query depth in AAResults, store it in AAQI.
This makes more sense, as it is a property of the query. This
sidesteps the issue of D94363, fixing slightly inaccurate AA
statistics. Additionally, I plan to use the Depth from BasicAA in
the future, where fetching it from AAResults would be unreliable.
This change is not quite as straightforward as it seems, because
we need to preserve the depth when creating a new AAQI for recursive
queries across phis. I'm adding a new method for this, as we may
need to preserve additional information here in the future.

There are no changes relative to the original commit. However, an issue
this exposed in BasicAA assumption tracking has been fixed in the
previous commit.
-----
An alias query currently works out roughly like this:
* Look up location pair in cache.
* Perform BasicAA logic (including cache lookup and insertion...)
* Perform a recursive query using BestAAResults.
* Look up location pair in cache (and thus do not recurse into BasicAA)
* Query all the other AA providers.
* Query all the other AA providers.
This is a lot of unnecessary work, all ultimately caused by the
BestAAResults query at the end of aliasCheck(). The reason we perform
it, is that aliasCheck() is getting called recursively, and we of
course want those recursive queries to also make use of other AA
providers, not just BasicAA. We can solve this by making the recursive
queries directly use BestAAResults (which will check both BasicAA
and other providers), rather than recursing into aliasCheck().
There are some tradeoffs:
* We can no longer pass through the precomputed underlying object
to aliasCheck(). This is not a major concern, because nowadays
getUnderlyingObject() is quite cheap.
* Results from other AA providers are no longer cached inside
BasicAA. The way this worked was already a bit iffy, in that a
result could be cached, but if it was MayAlias, we'd still end
up re-querying other providers anyway. If we want to cache
non-BasicAA results, we should do that in a more principled manner.
In any case, despite those tradeoffs, this works out to be a decent
compile-time improvment. I think it also simplifies the mental model
of how BasicAA works. It took me quite a while to fully understand
how these things interact.

D91936 placed the tracking for the assumptions into BasicAA.
However, when recursing over phis, we may use fresh AAQI instances.
In this case AssumptionBasedResults from an inner AAQI can reesult
in a removal of an element from the outer AAQI.
To avoid this, move the tracking into AAQI. This generally makes
more sense, as the NoAlias assumptions themselves are also stored
in AAQI.
The test case only produces an assertion failure with D90094
reapplied. I think the issue exists independently of that change
as well, but I wasn't able to come up with a reproducer.

This patch fixes a bug that could result in miscompiles (at least
in an OOT target). The problem could be seen by adding checks that
the DominatorTree used in BasicAliasAnalysis and ValueTracking was
valid (e.g. by adding DT->verify() call before every DT dereference
and then running all tests in test/CodeGen).
Problem was that the LegacyPassManager calculated "last user"
incorrectly for passes such as the DominatorTree when not telling
the pass manager that there was a transitive dependency between
the different analyses. And then it could happen that an incorrect
dominator tree was used when doing alias analysis (which was a pretty
serious bug as the alias analysis result could be invalid).

Change the way NoAlias assumptions in BasicAA are handled. Instead of
handling this inside the phi-phi code, always initially insert a
NoAlias result into the map and keep track whether it is used.
If it is used, then we require that we also get back NoAlias from
the recursive queries. Otherwise, the entry is changed to MayAlias.
Additionally, keep track of all location pairs we inserted that may
still be based on assumptions higher up. If it turns out one of those
assumptions is incorrect, we flush them from the cache.
The compile-time impact for the new implementation is significantly
higher than the previous iteration of this patch:
https://llvm-compile-time-tracker.com/compare.php?from=c0bb9859de6991cc233e2dedb978dd118da8c382&to=c07112373279143e37568b5bcd293daf81a35973&stat=instructions
However, it should avoid the exponential runtime cases we run into
if we don't cache assumption-based results entirely.
This also produces better results in some cases, because NoAlias
assumptions can now start at any root, rather than just phi-phi pairs.
This is not just relevant for analysis quality, but also for BatchAA
consistency: Otherwise, results would once again depend on query order,
though at least they wouldn't be wrong.
This ended up both more complicated and more expensive than I hoped,
but I wasn't able to come up with another solution that satisfies all
the constraints.

D71264 started using a context instruction in a computeKnownBits()
call. However, if aliasing between two GEPs is checked, then the
choice of context instruction will be different for alias(GEP1, GEP2)
and alias(GEP2, GEP1), which is not supposed to happen.
Resolve this by remembering which GEP a certain VarIndex belongs to,
and use that as the context instruction. This makes the choice of
context instruction predictable and symmetric.
It should be noted that this choice of context instruction is
non-optimal (just like the previous choice): The AA query result is
only valid at points that are reachable from *both* instructions.
Using either one of them is conservatively correct, but a larger
context may also be valid to use.

If we have two unknown sizes and one GEP operand and one non-GEP
operand, then we currently simply return MayAlias. The comment says
we can't do anything useful ... but we can! We can still check that
the underlying objects are different (and do so for the GEP-GEP case).
To reduce the compile-time impact, this a) checks this early, before
doing the relatively expensive GEP decomposition that will not be
used and b) doesn't do the check if the other operand is a phi or
select. In that case, the phi/select will already recurse, so this
would just do two slightly different recursive walks that arrive at
the same roots.
Compile-time is still a bit of a mixed bag: https://llvm-compile-time-tracker.com/compare.php?from=624af932a808b363a888139beca49f57313d9a3b&to=845356e14adbe651a553ed11318ddb5e79a24bcd&stat=instructions
On average this is a small improvement, but sqlite with ThinLTO has
a 0.5% regression (lencod has a 1% improvement).
The BasicAA test case checks this by using two memsets with unknown
size. However, the more interesting case where this is useful is
the LoopVectorize test case, as analysis of accesses in loops tends
to always us unknown sizes.

BasicAA has some special bit of logic for "same base pointer" GEPs
that performs a structural comparison: It only looks at two GEPs
with the same base (as opposed to two GEP chains with a MustAlias
base) and compares their indexes in a limited way. I generalized
part of this code in D91027, and this patch merges the remainder
into the normal decomposed GEP logic.
What this code ultimately wants to do is to determine that
gep %base, %idx1 and gep %base, %idx2 don't alias if %idx1 != %idx2,
and the access size fits within the stride.
We can express this in terms of a decomposed GEP expression with
two indexes scale*%idx1 + -scale*%idx2 where %idx1 != %idx2, and
some appropriate checks for sizes and offsets.
This makes the reasoning slightly more powerful, and more
importantly brings all the GEP logic under a common umbrella.
