In D41587, @mssimpso discovered that the order of some patterns for
AArch64 was sub-optimal. I thought a bit about how we could avoid that
case in the future. I do not think there is a need for evaluating all
patterns for now. But this patch adds an extra (expensive) check, that
evaluates the latencies of all patterns, and ensures that the latency
saved decreases for subsequent patterns.
This catches the sub-optimal order fixed in D41587, but I am not
entirely happy with the check, as it only applies to sub-optimal
patterns seen while building with EXPENSIVE_CHECKS on. It did not
discover any other sub-optimal pattern ordering.

Summary:
When calculating the RootLatency, we add up all the latencies of the
deleted instructions. But for NewRootLatency we only add the latency of
the new root instructions, ignoring the latencies of the other
instructions inserted. This leads the combiner to underestimate the cost
of patterns which add multiple instructions. This patch fixes that by
summing up the latencies of all new instructions. For NewRootNode, the
more complex getLatency function is used.
Note that we may be slightly more precise than just summing up
all latencies. For example, consider a pattern like
r1 = INS1 ..
r2 = INS2 ..
r3 = INS3 r1, r2
I think in some other places, the total latency of the pattern would be
estimated as lat(INS3) + max(lat(INS1), lat(INS2)). If you consider
that worth changing, I think it would be best to do in a follow-up
patch.

All these headers already depend on CodeGen headers so moving them into
CodeGen fixes the layering (since CodeGen depends on Target, not the
other way around).

This header includes CodeGen headers, and is not, itself, included by

This version of the patch fixes an off-by-one error causing PR34596. We
do not need to use std::next(BlockIter) when calling updateDepths, as
BlockIter already points to the next element.

Summary:
For large basic blocks with lots of combinable instructions, the
MachineTraceMetrics computations in MachineCombiner can dominate the compile
time, as computing the trace information is quadratic in the number of
instructions in a BB and it's relevant successors/predecessors.
In most cases, knowing the instruction depth should be enough to make
combination decisions. As we already iterate over all instructions in a basic
block, the instruction depth can be computed incrementally. This reduces the
cost of machine-combine drastically in cases where lots of instructions
are combined. The major drawback is that AFAIK, computing the critical path
length cannot be done incrementally. Therefore we only compute
instruction depths incrementally, for basic blocks with more
instructions than inc_threshold. The -machine-combiner-inc-threshold
option can be used to set the threshold and allows for easier
experimenting and checking if using incremental updates for all basic
blocks has any impact on the performance.

The primary use of the dump() functions in LLVM is for use in a
debugger. Unfortunately lldb does not seem to handle default arguments
so using `p SomeMI.dump()` fails and you have to type the longer `p
SomeMI.dump(nullptr)`. Remove the paramter to make the most common use
easy. (You can always construct something like `p
SomeMI.print(dbgs(),MyTII)` if you need more features).

we used to print UNKNOWN instructions when the instruction to be printer was not
yet inserted in any BB: in that case the pretty printer would not be able to
compute a TII as the instruction does not belong to any BB or function yet.
This patch explicitly passes the TII to the pretty-printer.

We have found that -- when the selected subarchitecture has a scheduling model
and we are not optimizing for size -- the machine-instruction combiner uses a
too-simple algorithm to compute the cost of one of the two alternatives [before
and after running a combining pass on a section of code], and therefor it throws
away the combination results too often.
This fix has the potential to help any ISA with the potential to combine
instructions and for which at least one subarchitecture has a scheduling model.
As of now, this is only known to definitely affect AArch64 subarchitectures with
a scheduling model.
Regression tested on AMD64/GNU-Linux, new test case tested to fail on an
unpatched compiler and pass on a patched compiler.

Evaluates fmul+fadd -> fmadd combines and similar code sequences in the
machine combiner. It adds support for float and double similar to the existing
integer implementation. The key features are:
- DAGCombiner checks whether it should combine greedily or let the machine
combiner do the evaluation. This is only supported on ARM64.
- It gives preference to throughput over latency: the heuristic used is
to combine always in loops. The targets decides whether the machine
combiner should optimize for throughput or latency.
- Supports for fmadd, f(n)msub, fmla, fmls patterns
- On by default at O3 ffast-math
