Invariant start/end intrinsics overloaded for address space
ClosedPublic

Authored by anna on Jul 19 2016, 8:35 AM.

Details

Summary

The llvm.invariant.start and llvm.invariant.end intrinsics currently
support specifying invariant memory objects only in the default address space.

With this change, these intrinsics are overloaded for any adddress space for memory objects
and we can use these llvm invariant intrinsics in non-default address spaces.

Example: llvm.invariant.start.p1i8(i64 4, i8 addrspace(1)* %ptr)

This overloaded intrinsic is needed for representing final or invariant memory in managed languages.

Please add a test case for autoupgrade functionality. See auto_upgrade_intrinsics.ll for examples.

I'd omit this for the sake of consistency with other intrinsics.

I'd extract locals for Arg[1] and Arg[2]. The name of these variables will make it clear what the overloaded types are for.

Addressed comments above: added test for auto uppgrade, localized args in Auto upgrade code.

I actually added the statement for the sake of consistency wth other overloaded intrinsics :)

All intrinsics that overload explicitly state that fact (examples: llvm.memcpy: This is an overloaded intrinsic. You can use llvm.memcpy on any
integer bit width and for different address spaces.)

It's a Type not a Value, right? That's not obvious. I'd name it accordingly or/and use the type instead of auto.

Reverted change in r276320, due to failure in clang.
Assertion failure:
clang: /var/lib/buildbot/slaves/hexagon-build-03/clang-hexagon-elf/llvm/include/llvm/ADT/ArrayRef.h:196: const T &llvm::ArrayRef<llvm::Type *>::operator[](size_t) const [T = llvm::Type *]: Assertion `Index < Length && "Invalid index!"' failed.

The fix for build break is to pass in array of Type* to Intrinsic::getDeclaration and Intrinsic::getName.

fix for clang build break: create array of Type* containing the single element,
and passing this Type*[] into Intrinsic::getDeclaration and Intrinsic::getName

No clang failures.

The clang build break was due to the absence of overloaded type in the function call for getting the invariant intrinsic in clang::CodeGen::CodeGenFunction::EmitDeclInvariant. Clang test failures are due to the insertion of llvm.invariant.start calls after the constructor. This is turned on only at O1.
Discussed with Artur offline and the fix being simple and similar to the llvm invariant intrinsic change in AutoUpgrade, is checked in to clang directly. All clang and llvm buildbots pass.
