9 // The LoopPredication pass tries to convert loop variant range checks to loop
10 // invariant by widening checks across loop iterations. For example, it will
11 // convert
12 //
13 //   for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
14 //     guard(i < len);
15 //     ...
16 //   }
17 //
18 // to
19 //
20 //   for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
21 //     guard(n - 1 < len);
22 //     ...
23 //   }
24 //
25 // After this transformation the condition of the guard is loop invariant, so
26 // loop-unswitch can later unswitch the loop by this condition which basically
27 // predicates the loop by the widened condition:
28 //
29 //   if (n - 1 < len)
30 //     for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
31 //       ...
32 //     }
33 //   else
34 //     deoptimize
35 //
36 // It's tempting to rely on SCEV here, but it has proven to be problematic.
37 // Generally the facts SCEV provides about the increment step of add
38 // recurrences are true if the backedge of the loop is taken, which implicitly
39 // assumes that the guard doesn't fail. Using these facts to optimize the
40 // guard results in a circular logic where the guard is optimized under the
41 // assumption that it never fails.
42 //
43 // For example, in the loop below the induction variable will be marked as nuw
44 // basing on the guard. Basing on nuw the guard predicate will be considered
45 // monotonic. Given a monotonic condition it's tempting to replace the induction
46 // variable in the condition with its value on the last iteration. But this
47 // transformation is not correct, e.g. e = 4, b = 5 breaks the loop.
48 //
49 //   for (int i = b; i != e; i++)
50 //     guard(i u< len)
51 //
52 // One of the ways to reason about this problem is to use an inductive proof
53 // approach. Given the loop:
54 //
55 //   if (B(0)) {
56 //     do {
57 //       I = PHI(0, I.INC)
58 //       I.INC = I + Step
59 //       guard(G(I));
60 //     } while (B(I));
61 //   }
62 //
63 // where B(x) and G(x) are predicates that map integers to booleans, we want a
64 // loop invariant expression M such the following program has the same semantics
65 // as the above:
66 //
67 //   if (B(0)) {
68 //     do {
69 //       I = PHI(0, I.INC)
70 //       I.INC = I + Step
71 //       guard(G(0) && M);
72 //     } while (B(I));
73 //   }
74 //
75 // One solution for M is M = forall X . (G(X) && B(X)) => G(X + Step)
76 //
77 // Informal proof that the transformation above is correct:
78 //
79 //   By the definition of guards we can rewrite the guard condition to:
80 //     G(I) && G(0) && M
81 //
82 //   Let's prove that for each iteration of the loop:
83 //     G(0) && M => G(I)
84 //   And the condition above can be simplified to G(Start) && M.
85 //
86 //   Induction base.
87 //     G(0) && M => G(0)
88 //
89 //   Induction step. Assuming G(0) && M => G(I) on the subsequent
90 //   iteration:
91 //
92 //     B(I) is true because it's the backedge condition.
93 //     G(I) is true because the backedge is guarded by this condition.
94 //
95 //   So M = forall X . (G(X) && B(X)) => G(X + Step) implies G(I + Step).
96 //
97 // Note that we can use anything stronger than M, i.e. any condition which
98 // implies M.
99 //
100 // When S = 1 (i.e. forward iterating loop), the transformation is supported
101 // when:
102 //   * The loop has a single latch with the condition of the form:
103 //     B(X) = latchStart + X <pred> latchLimit,
104 //     where <pred> is u<, u<=, s<, or s<=.
105 //   * The guard condition is of the form
106 //     G(X) = guardStart + X u< guardLimit
107 //
108 //   For the ult latch comparison case M is:
109 //     forall X . guardStart + X u< guardLimit && latchStart + X <u latchLimit =>
110 //        guardStart + X + 1 u< guardLimit
111 //
112 //   The only way the antecedent can be true and the consequent can be false is
113 //   if
114 //     X == guardLimit - 1 - guardStart
115 //   (and guardLimit is non-zero, but we won't use this latter fact).
116 //   If X == guardLimit - 1 - guardStart then the second half of the antecedent is
117 //     latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart u< latchLimit
118 //   and its negation is
119 //     latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart u>= latchLimit
120 //
121 //   In other words, if
122 //     latchLimit u<= latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart
123 //   then:
124 //   (the ranges below are written in ConstantRange notation, where [A, B) is the
125 //   set for (I = A; I != B; I++ /*maywrap*/) yield(I);)
126 //
127 //      forall X . guardStart + X u< guardLimit &&
128 //                 latchStart + X u< latchLimit =>
129 //        guardStart + X + 1 u< guardLimit
130 //   == forall X . guardStart + X u< guardLimit &&
131 //                 latchStart + X u< latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart =>
132 //        guardStart + X + 1 u< guardLimit
133 //   == forall X . (guardStart + X) in [0, guardLimit) &&
134 //                 (latchStart + X) in [0, latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart) =>
135 //        (guardStart + X + 1) in [0, guardLimit)
136 //   == forall X . X in [-guardStart, guardLimit - guardStart) &&
137 //                 X in [-latchStart, guardLimit - 1 - guardStart) =>
138 //         X in [-guardStart - 1, guardLimit - guardStart - 1)
139 //   == true
140 //
141 //   So the widened condition is:
142 //     guardStart u< guardLimit &&
143 //     latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart u>= latchLimit
144 //   Similarly for ule condition the widened condition is:
145 //     guardStart u< guardLimit &&
146 //     latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart u> latchLimit
147 //   For slt condition the widened condition is:
148 //     guardStart u< guardLimit &&
149 //     latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart s>= latchLimit
150 //   For sle condition the widened condition is:
151 //     guardStart u< guardLimit &&
152 //     latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart s> latchLimit
153 //
154 // When S = -1 (i.e. reverse iterating loop), the transformation is supported
155 // when:
156 //   * The loop has a single latch with the condition of the form:
157 //     B(X) = X <pred> latchLimit, where <pred> is u>, u>=, s>, or s>=.
158 //   * The guard condition is of the form
159 //     G(X) = X - 1 u< guardLimit
160 //
161 //   For the ugt latch comparison case M is:
162 //     forall X. X-1 u< guardLimit and X u> latchLimit => X-2 u< guardLimit
163 //
164 //   The only way the antecedent can be true and the consequent can be false is if
165 //     X == 1.
166 //   If X == 1 then the second half of the antecedent is
167 //     1 u> latchLimit, and its negation is latchLimit u>= 1.
168 //
169 //   So the widened condition is:
170 //     guardStart u< guardLimit && latchLimit u>= 1.
171 //   Similarly for sgt condition the widened condition is:
172 //     guardStart u< guardLimit && latchLimit s>= 1.
173 //   For uge condition the widened condition is:
174 //     guardStart u< guardLimit && latchLimit u> 1.
175 //   For sge condition the widened condition is:
176 //     guardStart u< guardLimit && latchLimit s> 1.
