-With the recent changes to make the implicit def/use set explicit in
-machineinstrs, we should change the target descriptions for 'call' instructions
-so that the .td files don't list all the call-clobbered registers as implicit
-defs. Instead, these should be added by the code generator (e.g. on the dag).
+We should recognized various "overflow detection" idioms and translate them into
+llvm.uadd.with.overflow and similar intrinsics. Here is a multiply idiom:
-This has a number of uses:
-
-1. PPC32/64 and X86 32/64 can avoid having multiple copies of call instructions
- for their different impdef sets.
-2. Targets with multiple calling convs (e.g. x86) which have different clobber
- sets don't need copies of call instructions.
-3. 'Interprocedural register allocation' can be done to reduce the clobber sets
- of calls.

-Solve this DAG isel folding deficiency:
-
-int X, Y;
-
-void fn1(void)
-{
- X = X | (Y << 3);
-}
-
-compiles to
-
-fn1:
- movl Y, %eax
- shll $3, %eax
- orl X, %eax
- movl %eax, X
- ret
-
-The problem is the store's chain operand is not the load X but rather
-a TokenFactor of the load X and load Y, which prevents the folding.
-
-There are two ways to fix this:
-
-1. The dag combiner can start using alias analysis to realize that y/x
- don't alias, making the store to X not dependent on the load from Y.
-2. The generated isel could be made smarter in the case it can't
- disambiguate the pointers.
-
-Number 1 is the preferred solution.
-
-This has been "fixed" by a TableGen hack. But that is a short term workaround
-which will be removed once the proper fix is made.

On targets with expensive 64-bit multiply, we could LSR this:

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-Reassociate should turn: X*X*X*X -> t=(X*X) (t*t) to eliminate a multiply.
+Reassociate should turn things like:
+
+int factorial(int X) {
+ return X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X;
+}
+
+into llvm.powi calls, allowing the code generator to produce balanced
+multiplication trees.
+
+First, the intrinsic needs to be extended to support integers, and second the
+code generator needs to be enhanced to lower these to multiplication trees.
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
return bar(z, n) + bar(2*z, 2*n);
}
-Reassociate should handle the example in GCC PR16157.
+This is blocked on not handling X*X*X -> powi(X, 3) (see note above). The issue
+is that we end up getting t = 2*X s = t*t and don't turn this into 4*X*X,
+which is the same number of multiplies and is canonical, because the 2*X has
+multiple uses. Here's a simple example:
+
+define i32 @test15(i32 %X1) {
+ %B = mul i32 %X1, 47 ; X1*47
+ %C = mul i32 %B, %B
+ ret i32 %C
+}
+
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+Reassociate should handle the example in GCC PR16157:
+
+extern int a0, a1, a2, a3, a4; extern int b0, b1, b2, b3, b4;
+void f () { /* this can be optimized to four additions... */
+ b4 = a4 + a3 + a2 + a1 + a0;
+ b3 = a3 + a2 + a1 + a0;
+ b2 = a2 + a1 + a0;
+ b1 = a1 + a0;
+}
+
+This requires reassociating to forms of expressions that are already available,
+something that reassoc doesn't think about yet.

+apparently produces this very nice code with -ffast-math:

-"basicaa" should know how to look through "or" instructions that act like add

-The LLVM IR contains the needed alignment info, so we should be able to
-merge the loads and stores into 4-byte loads:

- %tmp11 = load i8* getelementptr (@m_HotKey, i32 0, i32 3), align 2
-
-Alternatively, we should use a small amount of base-offset alias analysis
-to make it so the scheduler doesn't need to hold all the loads in regs at
-once.
-
-//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-
-We should extend parameter attributes to capture more information about
-pointer parameters for alias analysis. Some ideas:
-
-1. Add a "nocapture" attribute, which indicates that the callee does not store
- the address of the parameter into a global or any other memory location
- visible to the callee. This can be used to make basicaa and other analyses
- more powerful. It is true for things like memcpy, strcat, and many other
- things, including structs passed by value, most C++ references, etc.
-2. Generalize readonly to be set on parameters. This is important mod/ref
- info for the function, which is important for basicaa and others. It can
- also be used by the inliner to avoid inserting a memcpy for byval
- arguments when the function is inlined.
-
-These functions can be inferred by various analysis passes such as the
-globalsmodrefaa pass. Note that getting #2 right is actually really tricky.
-Consider this code:
-
-struct S; S G;
-void caller(S byvalarg) { G.field = 1; ... }
-void callee() { caller(G); }
-
-The fact that the caller does not modify byval arg is not enough, we need
-to know that it doesn't modify G either. This is very tricky.

+We do a number of simplifications in simplify libcalls to strength reduce
+standard library functions, but we don't currently merge them together. For
+example, it is useful to merge memcpy(a,b,strlen(b)) -> strcpy. This can only
+be done safely if "b" isn't modified between the strlen and memcpy of course.

-We miss some instcombines for stuff like this:
-void bar (void);
-void foo (unsigned int a) {
- /* This one is equivalent to a >= (3 << 2). */
- if ((a >> 2) >= 3)
- bar ();
-}
-
-A few other related ones are in GCC PR14753.

Divisibility by constant can be simplified (according to GCC PR12849) from
being a mulhi to being a mul lo (cheaper). Testcase:

-SROA is not promoting the union on the stack in this example, we should end
-up with no allocas.
+This is equivalent to the following, where 2863311531 is the multiplicative
+inverse of 3, and 1431655766 is ((2^32)-1)/3+1:
+void bar(unsigned n) {
+ if (n * 2863311531U < 1431655766U)
+ true();
+}
-union vec2d {
- double e[2];
- double v __attribute__((vector_size(16)));
-};
-typedef union vec2d vec2d;
+The same transformation can work with an even modulo with the addition of a
+rotate: rotate the result of the multiply to the right by the number of bits
+which need to be zero for the condition to be true, and shrink the compare RHS
+by the same amount. Unless the target supports rotates, though, that
+transformation probably isn't worthwhile.

-
-vec2d foo () {
- return (vec2d){ .v = a.v + b.v * (vec2d){{5,5}}.v };

+The transformation can also easily be made to work with non-zero equality

+[STORE SINKING]
+
Store sinking: This code:
void f (int n, int *cond, int *res) {
It would be better to do the mul once to reduce codesize above the if.
This is GCC PR38204.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+This simple function from 179.art:
+
+int winner, numf2s;
+struct { double y; int reset; } *Y;
+
+void find_match() {
+ int i;
+ winner = 0;
+ for (i=0;i<numf2s;i++)
+ if (Y[i].y > Y[winner].y)
+ winner =i;
+}
+
+Compiles into (with clang TBAA):
+
+for.body: ; preds = %for.inc, %bb.nph
+ %indvar = phi i64 [ 0, %bb.nph ], [ %indvar.next, %for.inc ]
+ %i.01718 = phi i32 [ 0, %bb.nph ], [ %i.01719, %for.inc ]
+ %tmp4 = getelementptr inbounds %struct.anon* %tmp3, i64 %indvar, i32 0
+ %tmp5 = load double* %tmp4, align 8, !tbaa !4
+ %idxprom7 = sext i32 %i.01718 to i64
+ %tmp10 = getelementptr inbounds %struct.anon* %tmp3, i64 %idxprom7, i32 0
+ %tmp11 = load double* %tmp10, align 8, !tbaa !4
+ %cmp12 = fcmp ogt double %tmp5, %tmp11
+ br i1 %cmp12, label %if.then, label %for.inc
+
+if.then: ; preds = %for.body
+ %i.017 = trunc i64 %indvar to i32
+ br label %for.inc
+
+for.inc: ; preds = %for.body, %if.then
+ %i.01719 = phi i32 [ %i.01718, %for.body ], [ %i.017, %if.then ]
+ %indvar.next = add i64 %indvar, 1
+ %exitcond = icmp eq i64 %indvar.next, %tmp22
+ br i1 %exitcond, label %for.cond.for.end_crit_edge, label %for.body
+
+
+It is good that we hoisted the reloads of numf2's, and Y out of the loop and
+sunk the store to winner out.
+
+However, this is awful on several levels: the conditional truncate in the loop
+(-indvars at fault? why can't we completely promote the IV to i64?).
+
+Beyond that, we have a partially redundant load in the loop: if "winner" (aka
+%i.01718) isn't updated, we reload Y[winner].y the next time through the loop.
+Similarly, the addressing that feeds it (including the sext) is redundant. In
+the end we get this generated assembly:
+
+LBB0_2: ## %for.body
+ ## =>This Inner Loop Header: Depth=1
+ movsd (%rdi), %xmm0
+ movslq %edx, %r8
+ shlq $4, %r8
+ ucomisd (%rcx,%r8), %xmm0
+ jbe LBB0_4
+ movl %esi, %edx
+LBB0_4: ## %for.inc
+ addq $16, %rdi
+ incq %rsi
+ cmpq %rsi, %rax
+ jne LBB0_2
+
+All things considered this isn't too bad, but we shouldn't need the movslq or
+the shlq instruction, or the load folded into ucomisd every time through the
+loop.
+
+On an x86-specific topic, if the loop can't be restructure, the movl should be a
+cmov.
+
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+[STORE SINKING]
+
GCC PR37810 is an interesting case where we should sink load/store reload
into the if block and outside the loop, so we don't reload/store it on the
non-call path.
}
*P = tmp;
+We now hoist the reload after the call (Transforms/GVN/lpre-call-wrap.ll), but
+we don't sink the store. We need partially dead store sinking.
+
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+[LOAD PRE CRIT EDGE SPLITTING]
+
GCC PR37166: Sinking of loads prevents SROA'ing the "g" struct on the stack
leading to excess stack traffic. This could be handled by GVN with some crazy
symbolic phi translation. The code we get looks like (g is on the stack):
%10 = getelementptr %struct.f* %c_addr.0, i32 0, i32 0
%11 = load i32* %10, align 4
-%11 is fully redundant, an in BB2 it should have the value %8.
+%11 is partially redundant, an in BB2 it should have the value %8.
+
+GCC PR33344 and PR35287 are similar cases.
-GCC PR33344 is a similar case.

+
+[LOAD PRE / STORE SINKING / SPEC HACK]
+
+This is a chunk of code from 456.hmmer:
+
+int f(int M, int *mc, int *mpp, int *tpmm, int *ip, int *tpim, int *dpp,
+ int *tpdm, int xmb, int *bp, int *ms) {
+ int k, sc;
+ for (k = 1; k <= M; k++) {
+ mc[k] = mpp[k-1] + tpmm[k-1];
+ if ((sc = ip[k-1] + tpim[k-1]) > mc[k]) mc[k] = sc;
+ if ((sc = dpp[k-1] + tpdm[k-1]) > mc[k]) mc[k] = sc;
+ if ((sc = xmb + bp[k]) > mc[k]) mc[k] = sc;
+ mc[k] += ms[k];
+ }
+}
+
+It is very profitable for this benchmark to turn the conditional stores to mc[k]
+into a conditional move (select instr in IR) and allow the final store to do the
+store. See GCC PR27313 for more details. Note that this is valid to xform even
+with the new C++ memory model, since mc[k] is previously loaded and later
+stored.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+[SCALAR PRE]
+There are many PRE testcases in testsuite/gcc.dg/tree-ssa/ssa-pre-*.c in the
+GCC testsuite.
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-When GVN/PRE finds a store of float* to a must aliases pointer when expecting
-an int*, it should turn it into a bitcast. This is a nice generalization of
-the SROA hack that would apply to other cases, e.g.:
+There are some interesting cases in testsuite/gcc.dg/tree-ssa/pred-comm* in the
+GCC testsuite. For example, we get the first example in predcom-1.c, but
+miss the second one:
-int foo(int C, int *P, float X) {
- if (C) {
- bar();
- *P = 42;
- } else
- *(float*)P = X;
+unsigned fib[1000];
+unsigned avg[1000];
- return *P;
+__attribute__ ((noinline))
+void count_averages(int n) {
+ int i;
+ for (i = 1; i < n; i++)
+ avg[i] = (((unsigned long) fib[i - 1] + fib[i] + fib[i + 1]) / 3) & 0xffff;
}
+which compiles into two loads instead of one in the loop.
+
+predcom-2.c is the same as predcom-1.c
+
+predcom-3.c is very similar but needs loads feeding each other instead of
+store->load.
-One example (that requires crazy phi translation) is:
-http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16799
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-A/B get pinned to the stack because we turn an if/then into a select instead
-of PRE'ing the load/store. This may be fixable in instcombine:

+ %3074 = call i32 @strlen(i8* %endptr) nounwind readonly
+
+This is interesting for a couple reasons. First, in this:
+
+The memcpy+strlen strlen can be replaced with:
+
+ %3074 = call i32 @strlen([5 x i8]* @"\01LC42") nounwind readonly
+
+Because the destination was just copied into the specified memory buffer. This,
+in turn, can be constant folded to "4".
+
+In other code, it contains:
+
+ %endptr6978 = bitcast i8* %endptr69 to i32*
+ store i32 7107374, i32* %endptr6978, align 1
+ %3167 = call i32 @strlen(i8* %endptr69) nounwind readonly
+
+Which could also be constant folded. Whatever is producing this should probably
+be fixed to leave this as a memcpy from a string.
+
+Further, eon also has an interesting partially redundant strlen call:
+
+bb8: ; preds = %_ZN18eonImageCalculatorC1Ev.exit

+ %688 = call i32 @strlen(i8* %683) nounwind readonly
+
+This could be eliminated by doing the strlen once in bb8, saving code size and
+improving perf on the bb8->9->10 path.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+I see an interesting fully redundant call to strlen left in 186.crafty:InputMove
+which looks like:
+ %movetext11 = getelementptr [128 x i8]* %movetext, i32 0, i32 0
+
+
+bb62: ; preds = %bb55, %bb53
+ %promote.0 = phi i32 [ %169, %bb55 ], [ 0, %bb53 ]
+ %171 = call i32 @strlen(i8* %movetext11) nounwind readonly align 1
+ %172 = add i32 %171, -1 ; <i32> [#uses=1]
+ %173 = getelementptr [128 x i8]* %movetext, i32 0, i32 %172
+
+... no stores ...
+ br i1 %or.cond, label %bb65, label %bb72
+
+bb65: ; preds = %bb62
+ store i8 0, i8* %173, align 1
+ br label %bb72
+
+bb72: ; preds = %bb65, %bb62
+ %trank.1 = phi i32 [ %176, %bb65 ], [ -1, %bb62 ]
+ %177 = call i32 @strlen(i8* %movetext11) nounwind readonly align 1
+
+Note that on the bb62->bb72 path, that the %177 strlen call is partially
+redundant with the %171 call. At worst, we could shove the %177 strlen call
+up into the bb65 block moving it out of the bb62->bb72 path. However, note
+that bb65 stores to the string, zeroing out the last byte. This means that on
+that path the value of %177 is actually just %171-1. A sub is cheaper than a
+strlen!
+
+This pattern repeats several times, basically doing:
+
+ A = strlen(P);
+ P[A-1] = 0;
+ B = strlen(P);
+ where it is "obvious" that B = A-1.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+186.crafty has this interesting pattern with the "out.4543" variable:
+
+call void @llvm.memcpy.i32(
+ i8* getelementptr ([10 x i8]* @out.4543, i32 0, i32 0),
+ i8* getelementptr ([7 x i8]* @"\01LC28700", i32 0, i32 0), i32 7, i32 1)
+%101 = call@printf(i8* ... @out.4543, i32 0, i32 0)) nounwind
+
+It is basically doing:
+
+ memcpy(globalarray, "string");
+ printf(..., globalarray);
+
+Anyway, by knowing that printf just reads the memory and forward substituting
+the string directly into the printf, this eliminates reads from globalarray.
+Since this pattern occurs frequently in crafty (due to the "DisplayTime" and
+other similar functions) there are many stores to "out". Once all the printfs
+stop using "out", all that is left is the memcpy's into it. This should allow
+globalopt to remove the "stored only" global.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+This code:
+
+define inreg i32 @foo(i8* inreg %p) nounwind {
+ %tmp0 = load i8* %p
+ %tmp1 = ashr i8 %tmp0, 5
+ %tmp2 = sext i8 %tmp1 to i32
+ ret i32 %tmp2
+}
+
+could be dagcombine'd to a sign-extending load with a shift.
+For example, on x86 this currently gets this:
+
+ movb (%eax), %al
+ sarb $5, %al
+ movsbl %al, %eax
+
+while it could get this:
+
+ movsbl (%eax), %eax
+ sarl $5, %eax

+
+int func(int a, int b) { if (a & 0x80) b |= 0x80; else b &= ~0x80; return b; }
+
+Generates this:
+
+define i32 @func(i32 %a, i32 %b) nounwind readnone ssp {
+entry:
+ %0 = and i32 %a, 128 ; <i32> [#uses=1]

+ %b_addr.0 = select i1 %1, i32 %3, i32 %2 ; <i32> [#uses=1]
+ ret i32 %b_addr.0
+}
+
+However, it's functionally equivalent to:
+
+ b = (b & ~0x80) | (a & 0x80);
+
+Which generates this:
+
+define i32 @func(i32 %a, i32 %b) nounwind readnone ssp {
+entry:
+ %0 = and i32 %b, -129 ; <i32> [#uses=1]

+ %2 = or i32 %0, %1 ; <i32> [#uses=1]
+ ret i32 %2
+}
+
+This can be generalized for other forms:
+
+ b = (b & ~0x80) | (a & 0x40) << 1;
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+These two functions produce different code. They shouldn't:

+
+IPSCCP does not currently propagate argument dependent constants through
+functions where it does not not all of the callers. This includes functions
+with normal external linkage as well as templates, C99 inline functions etc.
+Specifically, it does nothing to:
+
+define i32 @test(i32 %x, i32 %y, i32 %z) nounwind {
+entry:
+ %0 = add nsw i32 %y, %z
+ %1 = mul i32 %0, %x
+ %2 = mul i32 %y, %z
+ %3 = add nsw i32 %1, %2
+ ret i32 %3
+}
+
+define i32 @test2() nounwind {
+entry:
+ %0 = call i32 @test(i32 1, i32 2, i32 4) nounwind
+ ret i32 %0
+}
+
+It would be interesting extend IPSCCP to be able to handle simple cases like
+this, where all of the arguments to a call are constant. Because IPSCCP runs
+before inlining, trivial templates and inline functions are not yet inlined.
+The results for a function + set of constant arguments should be memoized in a
+map.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+The libcall constant folding stuff should be moved out of SimplifyLibcalls into
+libanalysis' constantfolding logic. This would allow IPSCCP to be able to
+handle simple things like this:
+
+static int foo(const char *X) { return strlen(X); }
+int bar() { return foo("abcd"); }
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+functionattrs doesn't know much about memcpy/memset. This function should be
+marked readnone rather than readonly, since it only twiddles local memory, but
+functionattrs doesn't handle memset/memcpy/memmove aggressively:
+
+struct X { int *p; int *q; };
+int foo() {
+ int i = 0, j = 1;
+ struct X x, y;
+ int **p;
+ y.p = &i;
+ x.q = &j;
+ p = __builtin_memcpy (&x, &y, sizeof (int *));
+ return **p;

+ %385 = icmp slt i32 %tmp14.i, 64 ; [#uses=1]
+
+The srem can be transformed to an and because if %tmp14.i is negative, the
+shift is undefined. Testcase derived from 403.gcc.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+This is a range comparison on a divided result (from 403.gcc):
+
+ %1337 = sdiv i32 %1336, 8 ; [#uses=1]
+ %.off.i208 = add i32 %1336, 7 ; [#uses=1]
+ %1338 = icmp ult i32 %.off.i208, 15 ; [#uses=1]
+
+We already catch this (removing the sdiv) if there isn't an add, we should
+handle the 'add' as well. This is a common idiom with it's builtin_alloca code.
+C testcase:
+
+int a(int x) { return (unsigned)(x/16+7) < 15; }
+
+Another similar case involves truncations on 64-bit targets:
+
+ %361 = sdiv i64 %.046, 8 ; [#uses=1]
+ %362 = trunc i64 %361 to i32 ; [#uses=2]
+...
+ %367 = icmp eq i32 %362, 0 ; [#uses=1]

+
+These compile into different code, one gets recognized as a switch and the
+other doesn't due to phase ordering issues (PR6212):
+
+int test1(int mainType, int subType) {
+ if (mainType == 7)
+ subType = 4;
+ else if (mainType == 9)

+ %tmp = mul i32 %b, %a ; <i32> [#uses=1]
+ ret i32 %tmp

+
+could be reduced to:
+

+entry:
+ %tmp = mul i32 %b, %a
+ ret i32 %tmp
+}
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+We should use DSE + llvm.lifetime.end to delete dead vtable pointer updates.
+See GCC PR34949
+
+Another interesting case is that something related could be used for variables
+that go const after their ctor has finished. In these cases, globalopt (which
+can statically run the constructor) could mark the global const (so it gets put
+in the readonly section). A testcase would be:
+
+#include <complex>
+using namespace std;
+const complex<char> should_be_in_rodata (42,-42);
+complex<char> should_be_in_data (42,-42);
+complex<char> should_be_in_bss;
+
+Where we currently evaluate the ctors but the globals don't become const because
+the optimizer doesn't know they "become const" after the ctor is done. See
+GCC PR4131 for more examples.

+
+In this code:
+
+long foo(long x) {

+
+LLVM emits a comparison with 1 instead of 0. 0 would be equivalent

+
+LLVM prefers comparisons with zero over non-zero in general, but in this
+case it choses instead to keep the max operation obvious.

+is the fact that all three null stores in %entry are dead (because we do no
+cross-block DSE).
+
+Also surprising is that %conv isn't simplified to 0 in %....exit.thread.i.i.
+This is a because the client of LazyValueInfo doesn't simplify all instruction
+operands, just selected ones.

+}
+
+This shouldn't need the ((zext (%n - 1)) + 1) game, and it should ideally fold
+the two memset's together.
+
+The issue with the addition only occurs in 64-bit mode, and appears to be at
+least partially caused by Scalar Evolution not keeping its cache updated: it
+returns the "wrong" result immediately after indvars runs, but figures out the
+expected result if it is run from scratch on IR resulting from running indvars.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+clang -O3 -fno-exceptions currently compiles this code:
+
+struct S {
+ unsigned short m1, m2;
+ unsigned char m3, m4;
+};
+
+void f(int N) {
+ std::vector<S> v(N);
+ extern void sink(void*); sink(&v);
+}
+
+into poor code for zero-initializing 'v' when N is >0. The problem is that
+S is only 6 bytes, but each element is 8 byte-aligned. We generate a loop and
+4 stores on each iteration. If the struct were 8 bytes, this gets turned into
+a memset.
+
+In order to handle this we have to:
+ A) Teach clang to generate metadata for memsets of structs that have holes in
+ them.
+ B) Teach clang to use such a memset for zero init of this struct (since it has
+ a hole), instead of doing elementwise zeroing.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+clang -O3 currently compiles this code:
+
+extern const int magic;
+double f() { return 0.0 * magic; }
+
+into
+
+@magic = external constant i32
+
+define double @_Z1fv() nounwind readnone {
+entry:
+ %tmp = load i32* @magic, align 4, !tbaa !0
+ %conv = sitofp i32 %tmp to double
+ %mul = fmul double %conv, 0.000000e+00
+ ret double %mul
+}
+
+We should be able to fold away this fmul to 0.0. More generally, fmul(x,0.0)
+can be folded to 0.0 if we can prove that the LHS is not -0.0, not a NaN, and
+not an INF. The CannotBeNegativeZero predicate in value tracking should be
+extended to support general "fpclassify" operations that can return
+yes/no/unknown for each of these predicates.
+
+In this predicate, we know that uitofp is trivially never NaN or -0.0, and
+we know that it isn't +/-Inf if the floating point type has enough exponent bits
+to represent the largest integer value as < inf.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+When optimizing a transformation that can change the sign of 0.0 (such as the
+0.0*val -> 0.0 transformation above), it might be provable that the sign of the
+expression doesn't matter. For example, by the above rules, we can't transform
+fmul(sitofp(x), 0.0) into 0.0, because x might be -1 and the result of the
+expression is defined to be -0.0.
+
+If we look at the uses of the fmul for example, we might be able to prove that
+all uses don't care about the sign of zero. For example, if we have:
+
+ fadd(fmul(sitofp(x), 0.0), 2.0)
+
+Since we know that x+2.0 doesn't care about the sign of any zeros in X, we can
+transform the fmul to 0.0, and then the fadd to 2.0.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+We should enhance memcpy/memcpy/memset to allow a metadata node on them
+indicating that some bytes of the transfer are undefined. This is useful for
+frontends like clang when lowering struct copies, when some elements of the
+struct are undefined. Consider something like this:
+
+struct x {
+ char a;
+ int b[4];
+};
+void foo(struct x*P);
+struct x testfunc() {
+ struct x V1, V2;
+ foo(&V1);
+ V2 = V1;
+
+ return V2;
+}
+
+We currently compile this to:
+$ clang t.c -S -o - -O0 -emit-llvm | opt -scalarrepl -S
+
+
+%struct.x = type { i8, [4 x i32] }
+
+define void @testfunc(%struct.x* sret %agg.result) nounwind ssp {
+entry:
+ %V1 = alloca %struct.x, align 4
+ call void @foo(%struct.x* %V1)
+ %tmp1 = bitcast %struct.x* %V1 to i8*
+ %0 = bitcast %struct.x* %V1 to i160*
+ %srcval1 = load i160* %0, align 4
+ %tmp2 = bitcast %struct.x* %agg.result to i8*
+ %1 = bitcast %struct.x* %agg.result to i160*
+ store i160 %srcval1, i160* %1, align 4
+ ret void
+}
+
+This happens because SRoA sees that the temp alloca has is being memcpy'd into
+and out of and it has holes and it has to be conservative. If we knew about the
+holes, then this could be much much better.
+
+Having information about these holes would also improve memcpy (etc) lowering at
+llc time when it gets inlined, because we can use smaller transfers. This also
+avoids partial register stalls in some important cases.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+We don't fold (icmp (add) (add)) unless the two adds only have a single use.
+There are a lot of cases that we're refusing to fold in (e.g.) 256.bzip2, for
+example:
+
+ %indvar.next90 = add i64 %indvar89, 1 ;; Has 2 uses
+ %tmp96 = add i64 %tmp95, 1 ;; Has 1 use
+ %exitcond97 = icmp eq i64 %indvar.next90, %tmp96
+
+We don't fold this because we don't want to introduce an overlapped live range
+of the ivar. However if we can make this more aggressive without causing
+performance issues in two ways:
+
+1. If *either* the LHS or RHS has a single use, we can definitely do the
+ transformation. In the overlapping liverange case we're trading one register
+ use for one fewer operation, which is a reasonable trade. Before doing this
+ we should verify that the llc output actually shrinks for some benchmarks.
+2. If both ops have multiple uses, we can still fold it if the operations are
+ both sinkable to *after* the icmp (e.g. in a subsequent block) which doesn't
+ increase register pressure.
+
+There are a ton of icmp's we aren't simplifying because of the reg pressure
+concern. Care is warranted here though because many of these are induction
+variables and other cases that matter a lot to performance, like the above.
+Here's a blob of code that you can drop into the bottom of visitICmp to see some
+missed cases:
+
+ { Value *A, *B, *C, *D;
+ if (match(Op0, m_Add(m_Value(A), m_Value(B))) &&
+ match(Op1, m_Add(m_Value(C), m_Value(D))) &&
+ (A == C || A == D || B == C || B == D)) {
+ errs() << "OP0 = " << *Op0 << " U=" << Op0->getNumUses() << "\n";
+ errs() << "OP1 = " << *Op1 << " U=" << Op1->getNumUses() << "\n";
+ errs() << "CMP = " << I << "\n\n";
+ }
+ }

+ %and = and i32 %x, 3
+ %cmp = icmp ult i32 %and, 2

+The two or/and's should be merged into one each.

+
+Machine level code hoisting can be useful in some cases. For example, PR9408
+is about:
+
+typedef union {
+ void (*f1)(int);
+ void (*f2)(long);
+} funcs;
+
+void foo(funcs f, int which) {
+ int a = 5;
+ if (which) {
+ f.f1(a);
+ } else {
+ f.f2(a);
+ }
+}
+
+which we compile to:
+
+foo: # @foo
+# BB#0: # %entry
+ pushq %rbp
+ movq %rsp, %rbp
+ testl %esi, %esi
+ movq %rdi, %rax
+ je .LBB0_2
+# BB#1: # %if.then
+ movl $5, %edi
+ callq *%rax
+ popq %rbp
+ ret
+.LBB0_2: # %if.else
+ movl $5, %edi
+ callq *%rax
+ popq %rbp
+ ret
+
+Note that bb1 and bb2 are the same. This doesn't happen at the IR level
+because one call is passing an i32 and the other is passing an i64.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+I see this sort of pattern in 176.gcc in a few places (e.g. the start of
+store_bit_field). The rem should be replaced with a multiply and subtract:
+
+ %3 = sdiv i32 %A, %B
+ %4 = srem i32 %A, %B
+
+Similarly for udiv/urem. Note that this shouldn't be done on X86 or ARM,
+which can do this in a single operation (instruction or libcall). It is
+probably best to do this in the code generator.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+unsigned foo(unsigned x, unsigned y) { return (x & y) == 0 || x == 0; }
+should fold to (x & y) == 0.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+unsigned foo(unsigned x, unsigned y) { return x > y && x != 0; }
+should fold to x > y.
