This reverts commit 77a0da926c as we've
received multiple reports of this significantly impacting performance,
in ways that don't seem to just be target specific cost models going
wrong. I would offer some reproducers, but the test changes here seem to
be full of them!
Reverting for now and hopefully we can remove the "hack" more carefully
as we go.
The vectorizer will choose at times to "vectorize" loops with a scalar
factor (VF=1) with interleaving (IC > 1). This can occasionally produce
better code than the unroller (notable for reductions where it can
produce independent reduction chains that are combined after the loop).
At times this is not very beneficial though, for example when runtime
checks are needed or when the scalar code requires predication.
This addresses the second point, preventing the vectorizer from
interleaving when the scalar loop will require predication. This
prevents it from making a bit of a mess, that is worse than the original
and better left for the unroller to unroll if beneficial. It helps
reverse some of the regressions from D118090.

D43208 extracted `useEmulatedMaskMemRefHack()` from legality into cost model.
What it essentially does is prevents scalarized vectorization of masked memory operations:
```
// TODO: Cost model for emulated masked load/store is completely
// broken. This hack guides the cost model to use an artificially
// high enough value to practically disable vectorization with such
// operations, except where previously deployed legality hack allowed
// using very low cost values. This is to avoid regressions coming simply
// from moving "masked load/store" check from legality to cost model.
// Masked Load/Gather emulation was previously never allowed.
// Limited number of Masked Store/Scatter emulation was allowed.
```
While i don't really understand about what specifically `is completely broken`
was talking about, i believe that at least on X86 with AVX2-or-later,
this is no longer true. (or at least, i would like to know what is still broken).
So i would like to follow suit after D111460, and like wise disable that hack for AVX2+.
But since this was added for X86 specifically, let's just instead completely remove this hack.

When the main loop is e.g. VF=vscale x 1 and the epilogue VF cannot
be any smaller, the vectorizer should try to estimate how many lanes are
executed at runtime and allow a suitable fixed-width VF to be chosen. It
can use VScaleForTuning to figure out what a suitable fixed-width VF could
be. For the case where the main loop VF is VF=vscale x 1, and VScaleForTuning=8,
it could still choose an epilogue VF upto VF=4.
This was a bit tricky to test, so this patch also introduces a wrapper
function to get 'VScaleForTuning' by also considering vscale_range.
If min and max are equal, then that will be the vscale we compile for.
It makes little sense to tune for a different width if the code
will not be portable for other widths.

Adds new optimization remarks when vectorization fails.
More specifically, new remarks are added for following 4 cases:
- Backward dependency
- Backward dependency that prevents Store-to-load forwarding
- Forward dependency that prevents Store-to-load forwarding
- Unknown dependency
It is important to note that only one of the sources
of failures (to vectorize) is reported by the remarks.
This source of failure may not be first in program order.
A regression test has been added to test the following cases:
a) Loop can be vectorized: No optimization remark is emitted
b) Loop can not be vectorized: In this case an optimization
remark will be emitted for one source of failure.

For some reason we limited the epilogue VF to be fixed-width, but there
is not necessarily a reason for doing so. If the main VF=vscale x 16, the
epilogue VF could be either fixed-width, or a scalable VF upto vscale x 8.

This patch tries to use an existing VPWidenCanonicalIVRecipe

This has the following benefits:
1. First step to avoid setting both vector and scalar values for the
same induction def.
2. Reducing complexity of widenIntOrFpInduction through making things
more explicit in VPlan
3. Only need to splat the vector IV for block in masks.

This is a bugfix in IVDescriptor.cpp.
The helper function `RecurrenceDescriptor::getExactFPMathInst()`
is supposed to return the 1st FP instruction that does not allow
reordering. However, when constructing the RecurrenceDescriptor,
we trace the use-def chain staring from a PHI node and for each
instruction in the use-def chain, its descriptor overrides the
previous one. Therefore in the final RecurrenceDescriptor we
constructed, we lose previous FP instructions that does not allow
reordering.

isCandidateForEpilogueVectorization will currently return false for loops
which contain reductions. This patch removes this restriction and makes
the following changes to support epilogue vectorisation with reductions:
- `fixReduction`: If fixReduction is being called during vectorisation of the
epilogue, the phi node it creates will need to additionally carry incoming
values from the middle block of the main loop.
- `createEpilogueVectorizedLoopSkeleton`: The incoming values of the phi
created by fixReduction are updated after the vec.epilog.iter.check block
is added. The phi is also moved to the preheader of the epilogue.
- `processLoop`: The start value of any VPReductionPHIRecipes are updated before
vectorising the epilogue loop. The getResumeInstr function added to the ILV
will return the resume instruction associated with the recurrence descriptor.

When SVE is enabled for AArch64 targets it makes more sense to use the

The modified tests didn't have actual users of all inductions, making it
trivial to eliminate them. Add users to make sure the inductions are
actually used in the vectorized version.
Those two TTI hooks are used during vectorization for calculating
register pressure, the default implementation isn't consider for LMUL,
and that's also definitly wrong value for register number (all register class
are 8 registers).
So in this patch we tried to:
1. Calculate right register usage for vector type and scalar type.
2. Return right number of register for general purpose register and
vector register.

isLegalMaskedGather/Scatter would return an answer by second-guessing
where the function was called from, based on the Type passed in (vector

Alternative to D116817.
This introduces a new value-based folding interface for Or (FoldOr),
which takes 2 values and returns an existing Value or a constant if the
Or can be simplified. Otherwise nullptr is returned. This replaces the
more restrictive CreateOr which takes 2 constants.
This is the used to implement a folder that uses InstructionSimplify.
The logic to simplify `Or` instructions is moved there. Subsequent
patches are going to transition other CreateXXX to the more general
FoldXXX interface.

The code in VPWidenCanonicalIVRecipe::execute only worked for fixed-width
vectors due to the way we generate the values per lane. This patch changes
the code to use a combination of vector splats and step vectors to get

9345ab3a45 updated generateOverflowCheck to skip creating checks that
always evaluate to false. This in turn means that we only need to
create TruncTripCount if it is actually used.
Sink the TruncTripCount creating into ComputeEndCheck, so it is only
created when there's an actual check.
This patch fixes up an issue with InnerLoopVectorizer::getOrCreateVectorTripCount
whereby we weren't correctly generating the runtime trip count
for scalable vectors when tail-folding.
It also removes some asserts in the tail-folding path for cases when
the VF is not scalable.
In this patch I have only permitted tail-folding to be enabled
explicitly for scalable vectors when the user has specified one
of the following flags:
-prefer-predicate-over-epilogue=predicate-dont-vectorize
-prefer-predicate-over-epilogue=predicate-else-scalar-epilogue
For now it's best not to enable tail-folding with scalable vectors for
low trip counts or when optimising for code size, since there has been
no analysis on whether this is worth it.
Various tests have been added here:
Transforms/LoopVectorize/AArch64/sve-tail-folding.ll
Transforms/LoopVectorize/AArch64/sve-tail-folding-forced.ll
The tests cannot be target independent because they require masked
load/store support, i.e. TTI.isLegalMaskedLoad and TTI.isLegalMaskedStore
need to return true.

Unsigned compares of the form <u 0 are always false. Do not create such

The patch introduces a new lambda to create the check, so we can
