Fix Load Control Dependence in MemCpy Generation
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In Memcpy lowering we had missed a dependence from the load of the
operation to successor operations. This causes us to potentially
construct an in initial DAG with a memory dependence not fully
represented in the chain sub-DAG but rather require looking at the
entire DAG breaking alias analysis by allowing incorrect repositioning
of memory operations.

To work around this, r200033 changed DAGCombiner::GatherAllAliases to be
conservative if any possible issues to happen. Unfortunately this check
forbade many non-problematic situations as well. For example, it's
common for incoming argument lowering to add a non-aliasing load hanging
off of EntryNode. Then, if GatherAllAliases visited EntryNode, it would
find that other (unvisited) use of the EntryNode chain, and just give up
entirely. Furthermore, the check was incomplete: it would not actually
detect all such potentially problematic DAG constructions, because
GatherAllAliases did not guarantee to visit all chain nodes going up to
the root EntryNode. This is in general fine -- giving up early will just
miss a potential optimization, not generate incorrect results. But, for
this non-chain dependency detection code, it's possible that you could
have a load attached to a higher-up chain node than any which were
visited. If that load aliases your store, but the only dependency is
through the value operand of a non-aliasing store, it would've been
missed by this code, and potentially reordered.

With the dependence added, this check can be removed and Alias Analysis
can be much more aggressive. This fixes code quality regression in the
Consecutive Store Merge cleanup (D14834).

Test Change:

ppc64-align-long-double.ll now may see multiple serializations
of its stores

// We need to be careful here to also search for aliases through the
// value operand of a store, etc. Consider the following situation:
// Token1 = ...
// L1 = load Token1, %52
// S1 = store Token1, L1, %51
// L2 = load Token1, %52+8
// S2 = store Token1, L2, %51+8
// Token2 = Token(S1, S2)
// L3 = load Token2, %53
// S3 = store Token2, L3, %52
// L4 = load Token2, %53+8
// S4 = store Token2, L4, %52+8
// If we search for aliases of S3 (which loads address %52), and we look
// only through the chain, then we'll miss the trivial dependence on L1
// (which also loads from %52). We then might change all loads and
// stores to use Token1 as their chain operand, which could result in
// copying %53 into %52 before copying %52 into %51 (which should
// happen first).
//
// The problem is, however, that searching for such data dependencies
// can become expensive, and the cost is not directly related to the
// chain depth. Instead, we'll rule out such configurations here by
// insisting that we've visited all chain users (except for users
// of the original chain, which is not necessary). When doing this,
// we need to look through nodes we don't care about (otherwise, things
// like register copies will interfere with trivial cases).
