Non-Temporal hints from Loop Vectorizer
Actually i am working on vector accelerator which will perform those
instructions which are non temporal.
for instance if i have this loop
for(i=0;i<2048;i++)
a[i]=b[i]+c[i];
currently it emits following IR;
%0 = getelementptr inbounds [2048 x i32], [2048 x i32]* @b, i64 0, i64
%index
%1 = bitcast i32* %0 to <16 x i32>*
%wide.load = load <16 x i32>, <16 x i32>* %1,

llvm\test\CodeGen\X86\nontemporal-loads.ll shows how to create nt vector
loads in IR - is that what you're after?

Non-Temporal hints from Loop Vectorizer
i have already seen usage of __builtin_nontemporal_store but i want to
automate identification of non temporal loads/stores. i think i need to go
for a pass. is it possiblee to detect non temporal loops without polly?

Yes, but we don't have anything that does that right now. The cost
modeling is non-trivial,

[RFC] Non-Temporal hints from Loop Vectorizer
Hello all,
I've been wondering why Clang doesn't generate non-temporal stores when
compiling the STREAM benchmark [1] and therefore doesn't yield optimal
results.
It turned out that the Loop Vectorizer correctly vectorizes the arithmetic
operations and also merges the loads and stores into vector operations.
However it doesn't add the '!nontemporal' metadata which would

RFC: non-temporal fencing in LLVM IR
Hi JF, Philip,
Clang currently has __builtin_nontemporal_store and __builtin_nontemporal_load. How will the usage model for those change?
Thanks again,
Hal

RFC: non-temporal fencing in LLVM IR
Hello, fencing enthusiasts!
*TL;DR:* We'd like to propose an addition to the LLVM memory model
requiring non-temporal accesses be surrounded by non-temporal load barriers
and non-temporal store barriers, and we'd like to add such orderings to the
fence IR opcode.
We are open to different approaches, hence this email instead of a patch.
*Who's "we"?*

RFC: non-temporal fencing in LLVM IR
I agree with Tim's assessment for ARM. That's interesting; I wasn't
previously aware of that instruction.
My understanding is that Alpha would have the same problem for normal loads.
I'm all in favor of more systematic handling of the fences associated with
x86 non-temporal accesses.
AFAICT, nontemporal loads and stores seem to have different fencing rules
on x86, none of them

Polly loop offloading to Accelerator
Thank You.
i used -polly-ast-detect-parallel but there is no coincident info generated;
my c code is simple vec-sum as follows;
#include <stdio.h>
int a[2048], b[2048], c[2048];
foo () {
int i;
for (i=0; i<2048; i++) {
a[i]=b[5] + c[i];
}
}
i executed following commands;
$clang -S -emit-llvm vec-sum.cpp -march=native -O3 -mllvm
-disable-llvm-optzns -o vec-sum.s
$opt -S

[LLVMdev] Adding NonTemporal
While hacking around in the SelectionDAG build code, I've made the
isVolatile, (new) isNonTemporal and Alignment parameters to
SelectionDAG::getLoad/getStore and friends non-default.
I've already caught one bug in the XCore backend by doing this:
if (Offset % 4 == 0) {
// We've managed to infer better alignment information than the load
// already has. Use an aligned

Polly loop offloading to Accelerator
Hello,
i have been working with an accelerator backend. the accelerator has large
vector/simd units.
i want streaming loops (non-temporal) vectorized present in code to be
offloaded to accelerator simd units.
i find polly really suitable for this.
i am thinking if the generated IR is passed to polly and then it analyzes
loop to know it posses no reuse, if such loop is identified accelerator
