[VPlan] Expand VPWidenIntOrFpInductionRecipe into separate recipes (#118638)
The motivation of this PR is to make #115274 easier to implement, and
should allow us to add EVL support by just passing EVL to the VF
operand.
The current difficulty with widening IVs with EVL is that
VPWidenIntOrFpInductionRecipe generates its own backedge value. Since
it's a VPHeaderPHIRecipe the VF operand must be in the preheader, which
means we can't use the EVL since it's defined in the loop body.
The gist in this PR is to take the approach in #114305 and expand
VPWidenIntOrFpInductionRecipe into several recipes for the initial
value, phi and backedge value just before execution. I.e. this example:
```
vector.ph:
Successor(s): vector loop
<x1> vector loop: {
vector.body:
WIDEN-INDUCTION %i = phi %start, %step, %vf
...
EMIT branch-on-count ...
No successors
}
```
gets expanded to:
```
vector.ph:
...
vp<%induction.start> = ...
vp<%induction.increment> = ...
Successor(s): vector loop
<x1> vector loop: {
vector.body:
ir<%i> = WIDEN-PHI vp<%induction.start>, vp<%vec.ind.next>
...
vp<%vec.ind.next> = add ir<%i>, vp<%induction.increment>
EMIT branch-on-count ...
No successors
}
```
This allows us to a value defined in the loop in the backedge value, and
also means we can just reuse the existing backedge fixups in
VPlan::execute without having to specially handle it ourselves.
After this #115274 should just become a matter of setting the VF operand
to EVL (and building the increment step in the loop body, not the
preheader).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.
