[IPSCCP,PM] Preserve DT in the new pass manager.

Summary

After D45330, Dominators are required for IPSCCP and can be preserved.

This patch preserves DominatorTreeAnalysis in the new pass manager. AFAIK the legacy pass manager cannot preserve function analysis required by a module analysis.

Rebased after DTUpdater changes landed.

This patch also restructures the way analyses are passed between the solver and IPO/SCCP.cpp, to make it slightly simpler.

Does it make sense to have a SmallVector of such size here? I can see that this code wasn't introduce in this patch, but wanted to note it anyway.

Why is DTU passed to this function in a few of lines above but not here?

Fixed test case (new pm needs -passes='ipsccp,function(verify<domtree>) to verify the DTs afterwards), also pass DTU to other changeToUnreachable and ConstantFoldTerminator calls.

I am not sure, but I think that would be something to look at independently of this patch.

Looks good to me now, thanks for the fixes! You may want for somebody else to take a look at it, though.

Have you looked into preserving PDT if available? It should be easy with DTU, but I don't know if it makes sense to preserve it in this place of the pipeline.

It is also possible to preserve PostDominatorTree here trivially using DTU(DT, PDT, ...) and auto* PDT = FAM.getCachedResult.

I would suggest using DTU.deleteBB(DeadBB) here which delays BB removal until flush() and removing

for (BasicBlock *DeadBB : BlocksToErase)
      F.getBasicBlockList().erase(DeadBB);

below.
I believe it would make the code more readable.

LGTM and I'm glad to see other passes working to preserve DTU.

+1 and it also defers a potentially expensive call to flush().

Thank you very much for having a look! I updated the patch to use deleteBB, added a comment in lib/Transform/IPO/SCCP.cpp on why nullptr is passed in as DT for the legacy pass manager and renamed AnalysisForFn to AnalysisResultsForFn.

Unless there are any additional comments, I plan to commit this tomorrow.

Thanks, that makes more sense. I also renamed AnalysisInfo to AnalysisResults in SCCP.cpp

2087–2089

Neat, thank you very much!

IPSCCP currently runs relatively early, but if beneficial it can be added in a follow up patch quite easily by extending the AnalysisResultsForFn struct.

FWIW, still LGTM and I think you can go ahead and submit.

I would like to see PDT preserved as well (as suggested in review) and maybe other improvements, but all of those seem totally fine for follow-up patches.

Great, thank you very much for the prompt review!

I will prepare a patch for preserving PDT tomorrow. I am more than happy to take a look at any follow up improvements. Do you have anything particular in mind, besides preserving PDT?
