llvm dev - Sep 2021 - Changes in performance when the enable_noundef_analysis option is turned on.

Hello,
I've been working on making the "noundef" attribute be the default
on all
functions parameters. The reason for adding the "noundef" attribute to
function arguments is to reduce performance degradation caused by the
Freeze.
And I performed several tests to show that adding the "noundef"
attribute
to function arguments improves performance. I think the test results are
pretty straightforward. When there is little Freeze, adding a
"noundef"
attribute does not degrade the performance.
However, in situations where the Freeze is added to solve the
LoopUnswitch's miscompilation problem, it is possible to alleviate
performance degradation by adding the "noundef" attribute to function
arguments. You can check the results and some more details at the below
link.

Thanks.
