Hello, I was doing some experiments with SCEV and especially the loop trip count. Sorry for the dumb question, what is the easiest way to dump SCEV analysis results on a .bc file? On a side note, I wanted to see if we could optimize this function: unsigned long kernel(long w, long h, long d) { unsigned long count = 0; for(int i = 0; i < w; ++i) for(int j = i; j < h; ++j) for(int k = j; k < d; ++k) ++count; return count; } into this (it might not take into account overflows, it was generated using the barvinok library): unsigned long kernel2(long w, long h, long d) { return (-1 + w >= 0 && -1 - w + h >= 0 && -1 - h + d >= 0) ? (((((2 * w - 3 * w*w + w*w*w) + 3 * w * h + -3 * w * h*h) + ((3 * w - 3 * w*w) + 6 * w * h) * d))/6) : (-1 + w >= 0 && -1 - w + d >= 0 && h - d >= 0) ? ((((2 * w - 3 * w*w + w*w*w) + (6 * w - 3 * w*w) * d + 3 * w * d*d))/6) : (-1 + h >= 0 && w - h >= 0 && -1 - h + d >= 0) ? ((((2 * h - 2 * h*h*h) + (3 * h + 3 * h*h) * d))/6) : (-1 + d >= 0 && h - d >= 0 && w - d >= 0) ? (((2 * d + 3 * d*d + d*d*d))/6) : 0; } I am not sure how advanced are SCEV-based trip counts.

(Hit reply-all this time :) ) I'm doing this on a old clang/llvm build (from June 29), but if I generate IR by clang -mllvm -unroll-threshold=0 -O3 -S -emit-llvm -fno-vectorize x.c -o x.ll (loop unrolling and vectorization both tend to obscure trip count computation) then we are able to compute the trip counts in whatever loops that remain: Loop %for.cond8.preheader: backedge-taken count is {(-1 + %h),+,-1}<nw><%for.cond2.preheader> Loop %for.cond8.preheader: max backedge-taken count is -1 Loop %for.cond2.preheader: backedge-taken count is (-1 + %w) Loop %for.cond2.preheader: max backedge-taken count is -1 It isn't clear to me why indvars does not fold way all the loops out of existence (it is "clearly profitable" in this case). I'll try to take a closer look tonight. -- Sanjoy Michael Zolotukhin via llvm-dev wrote: > > unsigned long kernel(long w, long h, long d) { > unsigned long count = 0; > for(int i = 0; i < w; ++i) > for(int j = i; j < h; ++j) > for(int k = j; k < d; ++k) > ++count; > return count; > } Michael Zolotukhin via llvm-dev wrote:> Hi, > >> On Aug 9, 2016, at 6:39 PM, Alexandre Isoard via llvm-dev >> <llvm-dev at lists.llvm.org <mailto:llvm-dev at lists.llvm.org>> wrote: >> >> Hello, >> >> I was doing some experiments with SCEV and especially the loop trip count. >> Sorry for the dumb question, what is the easiest way to dump SCEV >> analysis results on a .bc file? > opt -analyze -scalar-evolution < file.bc > >> >> On a side note, I wanted to see if we could optimize this function: >> >> unsigned long kernel(long w, long h, long d) { >> unsigned long count = 0; >> for(int i = 0; i < w; ++i) >> for(int j = i; j < h; ++j) >> for(int k = j; k < d; ++k) >> ++count; >> return count; >> } >> >> into this (it might not take into account overflows, it was generated >> using the barvinok library): > Looks like we can not, but I haven’t examined why.

Thank you for the fast answer.

But even after this correction, playing with unsignedness does not improve the situation. (even with all signed or all unsigned) However, I came to realise that the first code could be improved into: long kernel2(long w, long h, long d) { using std::min; long count = 0; for (long i = 0; i < min(min(w, h), d); ++i) for (long j = i; j < min(h, d); ++j) for (long k = j; k < d; ++k) ++count; return count; } That is, removing dead loop iterations. Do we perform this kind of transformation? (when we can compute SCEV)> > Michael > > unsigned long kernel2(long w, long h, long d) { > return > (-1 + w >= 0 && -1 - w + h >= 0 && -1 - h + d >= 0) > ?
