[InstCombine] Demand bits of UMin
ClosedPublic

Summary

This is the umin alternative to the umax code from D53033, If I'm getting the maths correct.

As Sanjay suggested, we can use De Morgan's law on the umax case to bring us to the same thing on umin, but using countLeadingOnes, not countLeadingZeros.

Luckily, it appears that Alive can do countLeadingOnes too (although I don't see it anywhere in the sources I have).

Same as with D53033, looks ok, but maybe wait a bit for someone else.

lib/Transforms/InstCombine/InstCombineSimplifyDemanded.cpp
336–337

Nit, probably ignore:
Is

DemandedMask.countTrailingZeros() + C->countLeadingOnes() >= C->getBitWidth()

worse?
I guess you could write it as

DemandedMask.countTrailingZeros() >= (~C)->getActiveBits()

but that will be less readable, and may be worse if the compiler won't see through the bitwise-inversion.

test/Transforms/InstCombine/minmax-demandbits.ll
190

There are negative tests here for this fold?

Just added a new test, and changed some of the others around a little.

Yeah, I was trying to make it look like the above umax example. With DemandedMask.countTrailingZeros() >= <something>. I have no strong opinion, let me know if I should change it.

LGTM - see inline for a couple of nits.

lib/Transforms/InstCombine/InstCombineSimplifyDemanded.cpp
331–333

Period at end of each sentence. Rather than random math, note this as the DeMorgan'd version of the umax logic.

336

Might read easier and fit better in 80-cols if we give the CTZ a name and use it here and for umax:
unsigned LowestDemandedBit = DemandedMask.countTrailingZeros();

Thanks. Different branch, that makes sense.
