(-1 u/ %x) u< %y is one of (3?) common ways to check that
some unsigned multiplication (will not) overflow.
Currently, we don't catch it. We could:
---------------------------------------- Name: no overflow %o0 = udiv i4 -1, %x %r = icmp ult i4 %o0, %y => %o0 = udiv i4 -1, %x %n0 = umul_overflow i4 %x, %y %r = extractvalue {i4, i1} %n0, 1 Done: 1 Optimization is correct! ---------------------------------------- Name: no overflow, swapped %o0 = udiv i4 -1, %x %r = icmp ugt i4 %y, %o0 => %o0 = udiv i4 -1, %x %n0 = umul_overflow i4 %x, %y %r = extractvalue {i4, i1} %n0, 1 Done: 1 Optimization is correct! ---------------------------------------- Name: overflow %o0 = udiv i4 -1, %x %r = icmp uge i4 %o0, %y => %o0 = udiv i4 -1, %x %n0 = umul_overflow i4 %x, %y %n1 = extractvalue {i4, i1} %n0, 1 %r = xor %n1, -1 Done: 1 Optimization is correct! ---------------------------------------- Name: overflow %o0 = udiv i4 -1, %x %r = icmp ule i4 %y, %o0 => %o0 = udiv i4 -1, %x %n0 = umul_overflow i4 %x, %y %n1 = extractvalue {i4, i1} %n0, 1 %r = xor %n1, -1 Done: 1 Optimization is correct!
As it can be observed from tests, while simply forming the @llvm.umul.with.overflow
is easy, if we were looking for the inverted answer, then more work needs to be done
to cleanup the now-pointless control-flow that was guarding against division-by-zero.
This is being addressed in follow-up patches.
