[InstCombine] Remove root special case in demanded bits simplification When calling SimplifyDemandedBits (as opposed to SimplifyDemandedInstructionBits), and there are multiple uses, always use SimplifyMultipleUseDemandedBits and drop the special case for root values. This fixes the ephemeral value detection, as seen by the restored assumes in tests. It may result in more or less simplification, depending on whether we get more out of having demanded bits or the ability to perform non-multi-use transforms. The change in the phi-known-bits.ll test is because the icmp operand now gets simplified based on demanded bits, which then prevents a different known bits simplification later. This also makes the code safe against future changes like https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/97289, which add more context that would have to be discarded for the multi-use case.
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.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
