[InstCombine] Remove redundant combine from visitAnd
ClosedPublic

Details

Summary

As far as I can tell this combine is fully handled by SimplifyDemandedInstructionBits.

I was only looking at this because it is the only user of APIntOps::isShiftedMask which is itself broken. As demonstrated by r299187. I was going to fix isShiftedMask and needed to make sure we had coverage for the new cases it would expose to this combine. But looks like we can nuke it instead.

LGTM. If there's some way to annotate/update the tests that were originally added with that code, that would be nice.

My 'blame' skills aren't very good, so I'm not sure when this code was written. But it must have been pre-2010 when InstCombine was split off into new files.

I think this is fine. As Sanjay pointed out, can you please show us the test that performed this redundant transform if you can find it? I'd like to take a closer look.

I think the first version of this was added in r23379 in 2005, but there's no test case changes in that commit, but one is mentioned by name in the commit message. That test appears to be test29 in test/Transforms/InstCombine/add.ll that was added in the commit previous to that. That test case still exists today.

I had to revert the commit of this due to a tsan check failure. it looks like this optimization does fire sometimes because it's mising a qualification to make sure the add or sub is only has one user. So we can create an add or sub without replacing the existing one.
