[LLVMdev] LICM ilist question.
I am using LLVM 2.6 and I have a question on the use of the
BasicBlock::iterator to hoist loop invariant instructions to the loop
preheader. When I process the instructions backward as shown in the
following code, I got the following error right after the "hoist(I)" is
done. Can anyone advise whether I am misusing BasicBlock::iterator?

[LLVMdev] isSafeToSpeculativelyExecute() for CallInst
Hello,
Currently, llvm::isSafeToSpeculativelyExecute() always returns false for Call instructions.
This has actual performance implications, because loop-invariant code motion makes this check, and will never hoist instructions that are not safe to speculatively execute.
Unfortunately, there is currently no way to signal to LICM that a function is safe to speculatively execute. The

[LLVMdev] LICM for function calls
Hi,
Right now in LICM (and many other transformations) we always assume it is never safe to speculatively execute a function call.
The following function always return false for all function calls except for few intrinsics:
bool llvm::isSafeToSpeculativelyExecute(const Value *V,
const DataLayout *TD) {
...
case Instruction::Call: {
if (const

Function LICM for readonly, nocapture functions
Hey all,
I was doing some investigation of LICM and I ran into something that seems
a bit odd to me.
Suppose I was looking at the following code snippet:
#define N 1000
int main() {
int B[N];
char A[N];
for(int i=0; i<N; i++) {
B[i] = strlen(A);
}
return B[0]+B[N-1];
}
Among other optimizations that I may want to happen, I'd hope that the call
to strlen could be

-speculative-execution moving load before store
Hi,
A few days ago I stumbled upon a problem where SpeculativeExecution
changed the order of a load and a store to the same address.
I wrote
https://bugs.llvm.org//show_bug.cgi?id=32964
about it but no response there so far.
In the input we have
store i8 0, i8* @i
%.pre = load i8, i8* @i
and then in the output the load is moved so it's before the store which
clearly makes it

Question regarding LICM
Hello,
I am working on a C++ expression templates based DSL where we are using
LLVM for the code generation. I needed some help in understanding the
behaviour of the LICM pass. In the following example code the "A" class
is a custom container that defines various arithmetic operators using
expression templates. We are defining three arrays of the "A" container
and aggregating

[LLVMdev] Speculative loads and alignment
Hi,
There are several optimizations where we try to load speculatively. There are also two similar functions to determine whether it's a safe transformation:
* isSafeToLoadUnconditionally
* isSafeToSpeculativelyExecute
isSafeToLoadUnconditionally tries to take load alignment into account but fails to do this in some cases. It checks alignment for pointers derived from allocas and global

[LLVMdev] Safe loads
Hello,
For the Glasgow Haskell Compiler's backend, we would like to let LLVM know
that certain loads are safe to execute speculatively and hence to hoist
out of loops. At the moment, there doesn't seem to be a mechanism for
doing so. There seem to be two ways of implementing this: either allow
arbitrary instructions to be marked as safe and have
