[SimpleLoopUnswitch] Make all checks before actual non-trivial unswitch
ClosedPublic

Authored by mkazantsev on Oct 26 2018, 1:46 AM.

Details

Summary

We should be able to make all relevant checks before we actually start the non-trivial
unswitching, so that we could guarantee that once we have started the transform,
it will always succeed.

FWIW, after my suggestion I would not call this "NFC" as it should change the cost function of this routine at least....

Can we hoist this even fiurther up? Maybe w/ the irreducible CFG?

We shouldn't even compute and rank the cost of the candidates when this is the case.

The reason this was inside the unswitch (ages ago) was because we were re-using teh exit blocks list and I didn't want to create it twice, but your solution of passing it in seems way better.

Awesome improvement, thanks!

LGTM. Minor tweak or follow-up suggested below.

Maybe make this come before the dom tree? I'd generally prefer roughly grouped params... but SCEV is already a bit out-of-order, so also fine to clean up the grouping of parameters in a follow-up, whatever is easiest. I think the best ordering here would be: loop, terminator, invarianst, exit blocks, callback, analyses-used.
