This patch uses the feature added in D79162 to fix the cost of a
sext/zext of a masked load, or a trunc for a masked store.
Previously, those were considered cheap or even free, but it's
not the case as we cannot split the load in the same way we would for
normal loads.
This updates the costs to better reflect reality, and adds a test for it
in test/Analysis/CostModel/ARM/cast.ll.
It also adds a vectorizer test that showcases the improvement: in some
cases, the vectorizer will now choose a smaller VF when
tail-predication is enabled, which results in better codegen. (Because
if it were to use a higher VF in those cases, the code we see above
would be generated, and the vmovs would block tail-predication later in
the process, resulting in very poor codegen overall)

Currently, getCastInstrCost has limited information about the cast it's
rating, often just the opcode and types. Sometimes there is a context
instruction as well, but it isn't trustworthy: for instance, when the
vectorizer is rating a plan, it calls getCastInstrCost with the old
instructions when, in fact, it's trying to evaluate the cost of the
instruction post-vectorization. Thus, the current system can get the
cost of certain casts incorrect as the correct cost can vary greatly
based on the context in which it's used.
For example, if the vectorizer queries getCastInstrCost to evaluate the
cost of a sext(load) with tail predication enabled, getCastInstrCost
will think it's free most of the time, but it's not always free. On ARM
MVE, a VLD2 group cannot be extended like a normal VLDR can. Similar
situations can come up with how masked loads can be extended when being
split.
To fix that, this path adds a new parameter to getCastInstrCost to give
it a hint about the context of the cast. It adds a CastContextHint enum
which contains the type of the load/store being created by the
vectorizer - one for each of the types it can produce.

For a long time, the InstCombine pass handled target specific
intrinsics. Having target specific code in general passes was noted as
an area for improvement for a long time.
D81728 moves most target specific code out of the InstCombine pass.
Applying the target specific combinations in an extra pass would
probably result in inferior optimizations compared to the current
fixed-point iteration, therefore the InstCombine pass resorts to newly
introduced functions in the TargetTransformInfo when it encounters
unknown intrinsics.
The patch should not have any effect on generated code (under the
assumption that code never uses intrinsics from a foreign target).
This introduces three new functions:
TargetTransformInfo::instCombineIntrinsic
TargetTransformInfo::simplifyDemandedUseBitsIntrinsic
TargetTransformInfo::simplifyDemandedVectorEltsIntrinsic
A few target specific parts are left in the InstCombine folder, where
it makes sense to share code. The largest left-over part in
InstCombineCalls.cpp is the code shared between arm and aarch64.
This allows to move about 3000 lines out from InstCombine to the targets.

If a vector body has live-out values, it is probably a reduction, which needs a
final reduction step after the loop. MVE has a VADDV instruction to reduce
integer vectors, but doesn't have an equivalent one for float vectors. A
live-out value that is not recognised as reduction later in the optimisation
pipeline will result in the tail-predicated loop to be reverted to a
non-predicated loop and this is very expensive, i.e. it has a significant
performance impact, which is what we hope to avoid with fine tuning the ARM TTI
hook preferPredicateOverEpilogue implementation.

This refactors option -disable-mve-tail-predication to take different arguments
so that we have 1 option to control tail-predication rather than several
different ones.
This is also a prep step for D82953, in which we want to reject reductions
unless that is requested with this option.

This adjusts the MVE fp16 cost model, similar to how we already do for
integer casts. It uses the base cost of 1 per cvt for most fp extend /
truncates, but adjusts it for loads and stores where we know that a
extending load has been used to get the load into the correct lane, and
only an MVE VCVTB is then needed.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D81813
This adds some default costs for fp extends and truncates, generally
costing them as 1 per lane. If the type is not legal then the cost will
include a call to an __aeabi_ function.
Some NEON code is also adjusted to make sure it applies to the expected
types, now that fp16 is a more common thing.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D82458
This expands the existing extend costs with a few extras for larger
types than legal, which will usually be split under MVE. It also adds
trunk support for the same thing. These should not have a large effect
on many things, but makes the costs explicit and keeps a certain balance
between the trunks and extends.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D82457
This alters getMemoryOpCost to use the Base TargetTransformInfo version
that includes some additional checks for whether extending loads are
legal. This will generally have the effect of making <2 x ..> and some
<4 x ..> loads/stores more expensive, which in turn should help favour
larger vector factors.
Notably it alters the cost of a <4 x half>, which with the current
codegen will be expensive if it is not extended.

This emits new IR intrinsic @llvm.get.active.mask for tail-folded vectorised
loops if the intrinsic is supported by the backend, which is checked by
querying TargetTransform hook emitGetActiveLaneMask.
This intrinsic creates a mask representing active and inactive vector lanes,
which is used by the masked load/store instructions that are created for
tail-folded loops. The semantics of @llvm.get.active.mask are described here in
LangRef:
https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#llvm-get-active-lane-mask-intrinsics
This intrinsic is also used to provide a hint to the backend. That is, the
second argument of the intrinsic represents the back-edge taken count of the
loop. For MVE, for example, we use that to set up tail-predication, which is a
new form of predication in MVE for vector loops that implicitely predicates the
last vector loop iteration by implicitely setting active/inactive lanes, i.e.
the tail loop is predicated. In order to set up a tail-predicated vector loop,
we need to know the number of data elements processed by the vector loop, which
corresponds the the tripcount of the scalar loop, which we can now reconstruct
using @llvm.get.active.mask.

Similar to a recent change to the X86 backend, this changes things so
that we always produce a reduction intrinsics for all reduction types,
not just the legal ones. This gives a better chance in the backend to
custom lower them to something more suitable for MVE. Especially for
something like fadd the in-order reduction produced during DAG lowering
is already better than the shuffles produced in the midend, and we can
do even better with a bit of custom lowering.

Add the remaining arithmetic opcodes into the generic implementation
of getUserCost and then call this from getInstructionThroughput. Most
of the backends have been modified to return the base implementation
for cost kinds other RecipThroughput. The outlier here is AMDGPU
which already uses getArithmeticInstrCost for all the cost kinds.
This change means that most of the opcodes can be removed from that
backends implementation of getUserCost.

This is split off from D79100 and adds a new target hook emitGetActiveLaneMask

Add the remaining cast instruction opcodes to the base implementation
of getUserCost and directly return the result. This allows
getInstructionThroughput to return getUserCost for the casts. This
has required changes to PPC and SystemZ because they implement
getUserCost and/or getCastInstrCost with adjustments for vector
operations. Adjusts have also been made in the remaining backends
that implement the method so that they still produce a cost of zero
or one for cost kinds other than throughput.

If the caller needs to reponsible for making sure the MaybeAlign
has a value, then we should just make the caller convert it to an Align
with operator*.
I explicitly deleted the relational comparison operators that
were being inherited from Optional. It's unclear what the meaning
of two MaybeAligns were one is defined and the other isn't
should be. So make the caller reponsible for defining the behavior.
I left the ==/!= operators from Optional. But now that exposed a
weird quirk that ==/!= between Align and MaybeAlign required the
MaybeAlign to be defined. But now we use the operator== from
Optional that takes an Optional and the Value.

Make the kind of cost explicit throughout the cost model which,
apart from making the cost clear, will allow the generic parts to
calculate better costs. It will also allow some backends to
approximate and correlate the different costs if they wish. Another
benefit is that it will also help simplify the cost model around
immediate and intrinsic costs, where we currently have multiple APIs.

There are several different types of cost that TTI tries to provide
explicit information for: throughput, latency, code size along with
a vague 'intersection of code-size cost and execution cost'.
The vectorizer is a keen user of RecipThroughput and there's at least
'getInstructionThroughput' and 'getArithmeticInstrCost' designed to
help with this cost. The latency cost has a single use and a single
implementation. The intersection cost appears to cover most of the
rest of the API.
getUserCost is explicitly called from within TTI when the user has
been explicit in wanting the code size (also only one use) as well
as a few passes which are concerned with a mixture of size and/or
a relative cost. In many cases these costs are closely related, such
as when multiple instructions are required, but one evident diverging
cost in this function is for div/rem.
This patch adds an argument so that the cost required is explicit,
so that we can make the important distinction when necessary.

The API for shuffles and reductions uses generic Type parameters,
instead of VectorType, and so assertions and casts are used a lot.
This patch makes those types explicit, which means that the clients

good thing.

This is a very basic MVE gather/scatter cost model, based roughly on the
code that we will currently produce. It does not handle truncating
scatters or extending gathers correctly yet, as it is difficult to tell
that they are going to be correctly extended/truncated from the limited
information in the cost function.
This can be improved as we extend support for these in the future.

We were previously not necessarily favouring postinc for the MVE loads
and stores, leading to extra code prior to the loop to set up the
