LLVM_DUMP_METHOD void Loop::dump ( ) const

◆ dumpVerbose()

LLVM_DUMP_METHOD void Loop::dumpVerbose ( ) const

◆ getCanonicalInductionVariable()

PHINode * Loop::getCanonicalInductionVariable ( ) const

Check to see if the loop has a canonical induction variable: an integer recurrence that starts at 0 and increments by one each time through the loop.

If so, return the phi node that corresponds to it.

The IndVarSimplify pass transforms loops to have a canonical induction variable.

◆ getLocRange()

Return the source code span of the loop.

◆ getLoopID()

MDNode * Loop::getLoopID ( ) const

Return the llvm.loop loop id metadata node for this loop if it is present.

If this loop contains the same llvm.loop metadata on each branch to the header then the node is returned. If any latch instruction does not contain llvm.loop or if multiple latches contain different nodes then 0 is returned.

◆ getName()

StringRef llvm::Loop::getName ( ) const
inline

◆ getStartLoc()

DebugLoc Loop::getStartLoc ( ) const

Return the debug location of the start of this loop.

This looks for a BB terminating instruction with a known debug location by looking at the preheader and header blocks. If it cannot find a terminating instruction with location information, it returns an unknown location.

◆ hasLoopInvariantOperands()

bool Loop::hasLoopInvariantOperands ( const Instruction I) const

Return true if all the operands of the specified instruction are loop invariant.

Referenced by ConvertToSInt(), llvm::hoistRegion(), shouldRotateLoopExitingLatch(), sinkLoopInvariantInstructions(), llvm::sinkRegion(), and llvm::InnerLoopVectorizer::widenInstruction().

◆ isAnnotatedParallel()

bool Loop::isAnnotatedParallel ( ) const

Returns true if the loop is annotated parallel.

A parallel loop can be assumed to not contain any dependencies between iterations by the compiler. That is, any loop-carried dependency checking can be skipped completely when parallelizing the loop on the target machine. Thus, if the parallel loop information originates from the programmer, e.g. via the OpenMP parallel for pragma, it is the programmer's responsibility to ensure there are no loop-carried dependencies. The final execution order of the instructions across iterations is not guaranteed, thus, the end result might or might not implement actual concurrent execution of instructions across multiple iterations.

◆ makeLoopInvariant() [1/2]

bool Loop::makeLoopInvariant ( Value V,
bool Changed,
Instruction InsertPt = nullptr 
) const

If the given value is an instruction inside of the loop and it can be hoisted, do so to make it trivially loop-invariant.

Return true if the value after any hoisting is loop invariant. This function can be used as a slightly more aggressive replacement for isLoopInvariant.

If InsertPt is specified, it is the point to hoist instructions to. If null, the terminator of the loop preheader is used.

◆ makeLoopInvariant() [2/2]

bool Loop::makeLoopInvariant ( Instruction I,
bool Changed,
Instruction InsertPt = nullptr 
) const

If the given instruction is inside of the loop and it can be hoisted, do so to make it trivially loop-invariant.

Return true if the instruction after any hoisting is loop invariant. This function can be used as a slightly more aggressive replacement for isLoopInvariant.

If InsertPt is specified, it is the point to hoist instructions to. If null, the terminator of the loop preheader is used.

◆ setLoopAlreadyUnrolled()

void Loop::setLoopAlreadyUnrolled ( )

Add llvm.loop.unroll.disable to this loop's loop id metadata.

Remove existing unroll metadata and add unroll disable metadata to indicate the loop has already been unrolled. This prevents a loop from being unrolled more than is directed by a pragma if the loop unrolling pass is run more than once (which it generally is).

◆ setLoopID()

void Loop::setLoopID ( MDNode LoopID) const

Set the llvm.loop loop id metadata for this loop.

The LoopID metadata node will be added to each terminator instruction in the loop that branches to the loop header.

The LoopID metadata node should have one or more operands and the first operand should be the node itself.
