Determine whether INSN contains an accumulator which can be expanded into separate copies, one for each copy of the LOOP body.
for (i = 0 ; i < n; i++) sum += a[i];
==>
sum += a[i] .... i = i+1; sum1 += a[i] .... i = i+1 sum2 += a[i]; ....
Return NULL if INSN contains no opportunity for expansion of accumulator. Otherwise, allocate a VAR_TO_EXPAND structure, fill it with the relevant information and return a pointer to it.
In the case of FMA, we're also changing the rounding.
Hmm, this is a bit paradoxical. We know that INSN is a valid insn in MD. But if there is no optab to generate the insn, we can not perform the variable expansion. This can happen if an MD provides an insn but not a named pattern to generate it, for example to avoid producing code that needs additional mode switches like for x87/mmx. So we check have_insn_for which looks for an optab for the operation in SRC. If it doesn't exist, we can't perform the expansion even though INSN is valid.
Find the accumulator use within the operation.
We only support accumulation via FMA in the ADD position.
The method of expansion that we are using; which includes the initialization of the expansions with zero and the summation of the expansions at the end of the computation will yield wrong results for (x = something - x) thus avoid using it in that case.
It must not otherwise be used.
It must be used in exactly one insn.
Instead of resetting the debug insns, we could replace each debug use in the loop with the sum or product of all expanded accummulators. Since we'll only know of all expansions at the end, we'd have to keep track of which vars_to_expand a debug insn in the loop references, take note of each copy of the debug insn during unrolling, and when it's all done, compute the sum or product of each variable and adjust the original debug insn and each copy thereof. What a pain!
Record the accumulator to expand.

Determine whether there is an induction variable in INSN that we would like to split during unrolling. I.e. replace i = i + 1; ... i = i + 1; ... i = i + 1; ... type chains by i0 = i + 1 ... i = i0 + 1 ... i = i0 + 2 ... Return NULL if INSN contains no interesting IVs. Otherwise, allocate an IV_TO_SPLIT structure, fill it with the relevant information and return a pointer to it.
For now we just split the basic induction variables. Later this may be extended for example by selecting also addresses of memory references.
This used to be an assert under the assumption that if biv_p returns true that iv_analyze_result must also return true. However, that assumption is not strictly correct as evidenced by pr25569. Returning NULL when iv_analyze_result returns false is safe and avoids the problems in pr25569 until the iv_analyze_* routines can be fixed, which is apparently hard and time consuming according to their author.
Record the insn to split.

Apply loop optimizations in loop copies using the data which gathered during the unrolling. Structure OPT_INFO record that data. UNROLLING is true if we unrolled (not peeled) the loop. REWRITE_ORIGINAL_BODY is true if we should also rewrite the original body of the loop (as it should happen in complete unrolling, but not in ordinary peeling of the loop).
Sanity check -- we need to put initialization in the original loop body.
Allocate the basic variables (i0).
bb->aux holds position in copy sequence initialized by duplicate_loop_to_header_edge.
Apply splitting iv optimization.
Apply variable expansion optimization.
Initialize the variable expansions in the loop preheader and take care of combining them at the loop exit.
Rewrite also the original loop body. Find them as originals of the blocks in the last copied iteration, i.e. those that have get_bb_copy (get_bb_original (bb)) == bb.

npeel = number of iterations to peel.
Skip big loops.
Do not simply peel loops with branches inside -- it increases number of mispredicts. Exception is when we do have profile and we however have good chance to peel proper number of iterations loop will iterate in practice. TODO: this heuristic needs tunning; while for complette unrolling the branch inside loop mostly eliminates any improvements, for peeling it is not the case. Also a function call inside loop is also branch from branch prediction POV (and probably better reason to not unroll/peel).
If we have realistic estimate on number of iterations, use it.
If we have small enough bound on iterations, we can still peel (completely unroll).
For now we have no good heuristics to decide whether loop peeling will be effective, so disable it.
Success.

Determine the number of iterations between initialization of the base variable and the current copy (N_COPY). N_COPIES is the total number of newly created copies. UNROLLING is true if we are unrolling (not peeling) the loop.
If we are unrolling, initialization is done in the original loop body (number 0).
If we are peeling, the copy in that the initialization occurs has number 1. The original loop (number 0) is the last.

Initialize the variable expansions in loop preheader. PLACE is the loop-preheader basic block where the initialization of the expansions should take place. The expansions are initialized with (-0) when the operation is plus or minus to honor sign zero. This way we can prevent cases where the sign of the final result is effected by the sign of the expansion. Here is an example to demonstrate this: for (i = 0 ; i < n; i++) sum += something; ==> sum += something .... i = i+1; sum1 += something .... i = i+1 sum2 += something; .... When SUM is initialized with -zero and SOMETHING is also -zero; the final result of sum should be -zero thus the expansions sum1 and sum2 should be initialized with -zero as well (otherwise we will get +zero as the final result).
Note that we only accumulate FMA via the ADD operand.

Strip away REG_EQUAL notes for IVs we're splitting. Updating REG_EQUAL notes for IVs we split is tricky: We cannot tell until after unrolling, DF-rescanning, and liveness updating, whether an EQ_USE is reached by the split IV while the IV reg is still live. See PR55006. ??? We cannot use remove_reg_equal_equiv_notes_for_regno, because RTL loop-iv requires us to defer rescanning insns and any notes attached to them. So resort to old techniques...

We cannot just update niter_expr, as its value might be clobbered inside loop. We could handle this by counting the number into temporary just like we do in runtime unrolling, but it does not seem worthwhile.

basic_block split_edge_and_insert | ( | ) |
Splits edge E and inserts the sequence of instructions INSNS on it, and returns the newly created block. If INSNS is NULL_RTX, nothing is changed and NULL is returned instead.
??? We used to assume that INSNS can contain control flow insns, and that we had to try to find sub basic blocks in BB to maintain a valid CFG. For this purpose we used to set the BB_SUPERBLOCK flag on BB and call break_superblocks when going out of cfglayout mode. But it turns out that this never happens; and that if it does ever happen, the TODO_verify_flow at the end of the RTL loop passes would fail. There are two reasons why we expected we could have control flow insns in INSNS. The first is when a comparison has to be done in parts, and the second is when the number of iterations is computed for loops with the number of iterations known at runtime. In both cases, test cases to get control flow in INSNS appear to be impossible to construct: * If do_compare_rtx_and_jump needs several branches to do comparison in a mode that needs comparison by parts, we cannot analyze the number of iterations of the loop, and we never get to unrolling it. * The code in expand_divmod that was suspected to cause creation of branching code seems to be only accessed for signed division. The divisions used by # of iterations analysis are always unsigned. Problems might arise on architectures that emits branching code for some operations that may appear in the unroller (especially for division), but we have no such architectures. Considering all this, it was decided that we should for now assume that INSNS can in theory contain control flow insns, but in practice it never does. So we don't handle the theoretical case, and should a real failure ever show up, we have a pretty good clue for how to fix it.

Unroll LOOP with constant number of iterations LOOP->LPT_DECISION.TIMES times. The transformation does this: for (i = 0; i < 102; i++) body; ==> (LOOP->LPT_DECISION.TIMES == 3) i = 0; body; i++; body; i++; while (i < 102) { body; i++; body; i++; body; i++; body; i++; }
Should not get here (such loop should be peeled instead).
The exit is not at the end of the loop; leave exit test in the first copy, so that the loops that start with test of exit condition have continuous body after unrolling.
Peel exit_mod iterations.
Leave exit test in last copy, for the same reason as above if the loop tests the condition at the end of loop body.
We know that niter >= max_unroll + 2; so we do not need to care of case when we would exit before reaching the loop. So just peel exit_mod + 1 iterations.
Now unroll the loop.
Find a new in and out edge; they are in the last copy we have made.

Unroll LOOP for which we are able to count number of iterations in runtime LOOP->LPT_DECISION.TIMES times. The transformation does this (with some extra care for case n < 0): for (i = 0; i < n; i++) body; ==> (LOOP->LPT_DECISION.TIMES == 3) i = 0; mod = n % 4; switch (mod) { case 3: body; i++; case 2: body; i++; case 1: body; i++; case 0: ; } while (i < n) { body; i++; body; i++; body; i++; body; i++; }
Remember blocks whose dominators will have to be updated.
Leave exit in first copy (for explanation why see comment in unroll_loop_constant_iterations).
Leave exit in last copy (for explanation why see comment in unroll_loop_constant_iterations).
Get expression for number of iterations.
Count modulo by ANDing it with max_unroll; we use the fact that the number of unrollings is a power of two, and thus this is correct even if there is overflow in the computation.
Precondition the loop.
Peel the first copy of loop body (almost always we must leave exit test here; the only exception is when we have extra zero check and the number of iterations is reliable. Also record the place of (possible) extra zero check.
Record the place where switch will be built for preconditioning.
Peel the copy.
Create item for switch.
We rely on the fact that the compare and jump cannot be optimized out, and hence the cfg we create is correct.
Add branch for zero iterations.
Recount dominators for outer blocks.
And unroll loop.
Find a new in and out edge; they are in the last copy we have made.
Remove the edges.
We must be careful when updating the number of iterations due to preconditioning and the fact that the value must be valid at entry of the loop. After passing through the above code, we see that the correct new number of iterations is this:

Unroll a LOOP LOOP->LPT_DECISION.TIMES times. The transformation does this: while (cond) body; ==> (LOOP->LPT_DECISION.TIMES == 3) while (cond) { body; if (!cond) break; body; if (!cond) break; body; if (!cond) break; body; }
We indeed may get here provided that there are nontrivial assumptions for a loop to be really simple. We could update the counts, but the problem is that we are unable to decide which exit will be taken (not really true in case the number of iterations is constant, but no one will do anything with this information, so we do not worry about it).
