2010-02-16There are two ways of checking for a given type, for example isa<PointerType>(T)Duncan Sands
and T->isPointerTy(). Convert most instances of the first form to the second form. Requested by Chris. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@96344 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2009-11-26resolve a fixme. I haven't figured out how to write a testcaseChris Lattner
to exercise this though. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@89954 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2009-11-26teach basicaa that A[i] != A[i+1].Chris Lattner
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@89951 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2009-11-26Change the other half of aliasGEP (which handles GEP differencing) to use ↵Chris Lattner
DecomposeGEPExpression. This dramatically simplifies and shrinks the code by eliminating the horrible CheckGEPInstructions method, fixes a miscompilation (@test3) and makes the code more aggressive. In particular, we now handle the @test4 case, which is reduced from the SmallPtrSet constructor. Missing this caused us to emit a variable length memset instead of a fixed size one. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@89922 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2009-11-26Generalize DecomposeGEPExpression to exactly handle what ↵Chris Lattner
Value::getUnderlyingObject does (when TD is around). This allows us to avoid calling DecomposeGEPExpression unless the ultimate alias check we care about passes, speedup up BasicAA a bit. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@89920 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2009-11-26Implement a new DecomposeGEPExpression method, which decomposes a GEP into a ↵Chris Lattner
list of scaled offsets. Use this to eliminate some previous ad-hoc code which was subtly broken (it assumed all Constant*'s were non-zero, but strange constant express could be zero). git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@89915 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2009-11-22Remove the AliasAnalysis::getMustAliases method, which is dead.Chris Lattner
The hasNoModRefInfoForCalls isn't worth it as a filter because basicaa provides m/r info and everything chains to it, so remove it. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@89599 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2009-11-19Extend CaptureTracking to indicate when a value is never stored, evenDan Gohman
if it is not ultimately captured. Teach BasicAliasAnalysis that a local object address which does not escape and is never stored does not alias with a value resulting from a load. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@89398 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2009-11-09Default-addressspace null pointers don't alias anything. This allowsDan Gohman

2009-10-23Remove AllocationInst. Since MallocInst went away, AllocaInst is the only ↵Victor Hernandez
subclass of AllocationInst, so it no longer is necessary. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@84969 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2009-10-16When checking aliases between phi sources and V2, we know the sources are ↵Evan Cheng
not themselves phi nodes. However, V2 may be. Call aliasCheck with V2 first to potentially eliminate a std::swap call. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@84226 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2009-10-14Another BasicAA fix. If a value does not alias a GEP's base pointer, then itEvan Cheng
cannot alias the GEP. GEP pointer alias rule states this clearly: A pointer value formed from a getelementptr instruction is associated with the addresses associated with the first operand of the getelementptr. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@84079 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
