Implement flat loop profile detection
This patch adds maybe_flat_loop_profile which can be used in loop profile udpate to detect situation where the profile may be unrealistically flat and should not be dwonscalled after vectorizing, unrolling and other transforms that assume that loop has high iteration count even if the CFG profile says otherwise. Profile is flat if it was statically detected and at that time we had no idea about actual number of iterations or we artificially capped them. So the function considers flat all profiles that have guessed or lower reliability in their count and there is no nb_iteration_bounds/estimate which would prove that the profile iteration count is high enough. gcc/ChangeLog: * cfgloop.h (maybe_flat_loop_profile): Declare * cfgloopanal.cc (maybe_flat_loop_profile): New function. * tree-cfg.cc (print_loop_info): Print info about flat profiles.

This is a common case, since average loops iterate only about 5 times.
|
||||
In the case we do not have profile feedback or do not know real number of
|
||||
iterations during profile estimation, we are likely going to predict it with
|
||||
similar low iteration count. For static loop profiles we also artificially
|
||||
cap profile of loops with known large iteration count so they do not appear
|
||||
significantly more hot than other loops with unknown iteration counts.
|
||||
|
||||
For loop optimization heuristics we ignore CFG profile and instead
|
||||
use get_estimated_loop_iterations API which returns estimate
|
||||
only when it is realistic. For unknown counts some optimizations,
|
||||
like vectorizer or unroller make guess that iteration count will
|
||||
be large. In this case we need to avoid scaling down the profile
|

after the loop transform. */
