[PatternMatch] Add new FP matchers. NFC.
ClosedPublic

Authored by foad on Oct 8 2020, 6:09 AM.

Details

Summary

This adds matchers m_NonNaN, m_NonInf, m_Finite and m_NonZeroFP as well
as generic support for binding the matched value to an APFloat.

I tried to follow the existing convention of using an FP suffix for
predicates like zero and non-zero, which could be confused with the
integer versions, but not for predicates which are clearly already
FP-specific.

Would it be better to simplify this entire loop to match(V, m_NonNaN()) ?

Use matchers to handle fixed width vectors.

I'd expect this now to work for non-uniform vectors that contain different non-zero float values (and also undefs) - can we add test coverage for this please?

llvm/lib/Analysis/ValueTracking.cpp
5297

Ideally this function needs extending to support non-uniform vectors as well.

m_APFloat didn't match constant vectors containing undefs but m_Finite will? Again, we need test coverage for this.

foad updated this revision to Diff 298599.Oct 16 2020, 5:02 AM

Test simplifySelectWithFCmp on non-uniform vectors.

Sure, but I'd prefer to do that in a separate patch. Currently it relies on checks like *FC1 < *FC2 below that won't work for vectors, and I'm not sure how to write that in a vector-friendly way.

5310

Since this whole function does support vectors yet, there's NFC here and nothing to test.

OK - in which case a TODO comment plus an assert that !getType->isVectorTy() at the top of the function would be fine.

foad updated this revision to Diff 298608.Oct 16 2020, 5:56 AM

Add a vector test case for matchFastFloatClamp.

I was mistaken. This function did already handle splat vectors with no undefs, because of the use of m_APFloat matchers. I've added an explicit test case for this. My patch does not change this behaviour.

@spatel @lebedev.ri any additional comments?

This should probably mention whether or not undef vector constants are allowed.

353

Note that this is implicitly /*AllowUndefs=*/false

I think i'd like to see some dedicated tests with undefs in llvm/unittest/IR/PatternMatch.cpp.

Right, so there is a pre-existing problem with matchers like this one, which claim to allow undef, but in fact the second (binding) form of the matcher does not:

/// Match an integer or vector of negative values.
/// For vectors, this includes constants with undefined elements.
inline cst_pred_ty<is_negative> m_Negative() {
  return cst_pred_ty<is_negative>();
}
inline api_pred_ty<is_negative> m_Negative(const APInt *&V) {
  return V;
}

Add unit tests.

So does it or does it not allow undefs?

AFAICT cstfp_pred_ty supports vectors with undef elements but apf_pred_ty doesnot

It allows undefs.

I'm lost.
If their code related to handling splats is identical (neither of them pass anything into getSplatValue()), why do they end up with different undef behaviour?

cstfp_pred_ty has its own handling of non-splat vector constants. apf_pred_ty does not. I realise this is not great! It was copied directly from the integer equivalents, which have the same inconsistency.

So if this is using apf_pred_ty, then this doesn't support undef constants then?

Correct. m_Finite() does, m_Finite(const APFloat *&) does not. This is the pre-existing problem I mentioned which has now been copied across from the integer matchers to the fp ones.

Anyways i think this looks fine to me now. Thanks.

llvm/include/llvm/IR/PatternMatch.h
614

But it says it does.

foad updated this revision to Diff 300005.Oct 22 2020, 9:03 AM

Change apf_pred_ty to allow undefs and test that this works for m_Finite(const APFloat *&).

Yes, that's the pre-existing bug! Anyway I have now fixed this for the new float matchers, but I have not touched the existing integer matchers.

Okay, you lost me there.
How it's a "pre-existing bug", if you add this matcher here?

I should have said: a pre-existing bug in the integer matchers, which I copied across to the new fp matchers.

I would strongly recommend to split this into two separate commits - adding the matchers, and using them.
Because while the matchers themselves LG, i'm not at all confident with users.
When doing latter, please ensure that each separate change has appropriate undef test coverage, and ideally check that alive2 is happy about those transforms.

Can do. But it feels like every time I try to separate things like that, some reviewer asks me to put it all into one patch again :( https://reviews.llvm.org/D87034#2254864

OK, I split the "using them" part out into D90015.
