alexey.zhikhar updated subscribers of D124394: [DFAJumpThreading] Relax analysis to handle unpredictable initial values.

Hi Sjoerd and JinGu, I remember from your comments on the initial DFAJumpThreading patch, that you guys are interested in the opportunities in SPEC2017 perlbench. I wanted to let you know that this patch introduces a limit on the number of threaded paths per switch. The limit is 200 paths, that means that if a switch has 1,000 potential path candidates, only 200 of them will get threaded, the rest of them will circle back to the switch instruction the usual way. The thing is that perlbench has several switches optimized by DFAJumpThreading, and a couple of them have the number of paths above the limit (in the thousands). Due to the limit, these switches are threaded partially, which might lead to performance regressions.

If I am not mistaken, I still think tests are missing for cases when jump threading should *not* trigger:

Thanks for all of the effort! On our downstream Cortex-R5 compiler, I'm seeing a 20.4% speedup on Coremark with this patch, which is good, however, the older patch (https://reviews.llvm.org/D88307) gave me a 21.6% speedup. Any idea what could account for the difference there?

alexey.zhikhar added a comment to D68515: [PATCH 20/27] [noalias] SROA/PromoteMemoryToRegister: Learn how to handle noalias intrinsics.

Is the bitcast introduced by 'clang' (frontend), or was it introduced by one of the optimization passes ? In the latter case, which pass is this? We should probably handle it and
treat it as a 'gep with all-0 indices'... And make sure that the pointer-type for the llvm.noalias is somewhat usable.

If it is based on 'a pointer to int' conversion in the c-language, then it should be ok to just ignore it.

alexey.zhikhar added a comment to D49994: Allow constraining virtual register's class within reason.

I'd like an explanation for why the generated code is changing for AArch64... generating extra copies clearly seems like a downside. And there isn't any obvious reason for this change to impact register allocation: on AArch64, all i32 register classes contain exactly the same set of allocatable registers.

alexey.zhikhar added a reviewer for D49994: Allow constraining virtual register's class within reason: t.p.northover.

For some of the failing ARM/AArch64 tests, I see additional mov-s being performed; for example, in CodeGen/AArch64/and-sink.ll: if you take a look at the assembly after applying the patch, you will see an addtional mov for the trace when %c (w1) equals to zero. I'm not sure how important it is, so I would appreciate some feedback from ARM/AArch64 backend people. Please note that for performance-critical atomic compare-and-swap operations, performance is unchanged.

This patch fails 14 tests; however, it seems that the problem is not in the patch but in flaky test cases. I took a quick look at CodeGen/PowerPC/vsx.ll: the test case fails after not finding copy instructions, which were redundant and expectedly removed by this patch.
