[mlir][dataflow] IntRange: Replace yield-based widening with per-state lattice budget (#196616) IntegerRangeAnalysis can hang on `scf.while` loops with dynamic bounds: a loop-carried range ratchets [0,0]->[0,1]->[0,2]->... by one per worklist visit, requiring up to 2^31 iterations on i32. The new `int-range-analysis-convergence.mlir` test reproduces this. The ratchet lives at framework merge sites (region successors, callable args) where the solver joins lattices via virtual `Lattice::join(const AbstractSparseLattice &)`. The pre-existing `isYieldedResult`/`isYieldedValue` heuristic in `IntegerRangeAnalysis::visitOperation` doesn't help: it runs in the transfer-function callback for inferrable-op results used by a terminator, not on the merge path. It is also harmful where it fires - slams to maxRange on the *second* visit (after, say, [1,1]->[1,2]), so naturally bounded accumulators (e.g. `arith.minsi`-clamped iter args) widen to [INT_MIN, INT_MAX]. Replace it with a per-state widening budget on `IntegerValueRangeLattice`: the lattice counts merge-site joins and forces the range to its max once the count hits `kIntegerRangeWideningBudget` (128). Only the virtual overload is overridden, so transfer-function joins via the non-virtual `join(const ValueT &)` are unaffected. The new `int-range-loop-iter-args.mlir` test pins the tighter bounds; the convergence test verifies termination.
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.
