[VectorCombine] Generalize foldBitOpOfBitcasts to support more cast operations (#148350)
This patch generalizes the existing foldBitOpOfBitcasts optimization in the VectorCombine pass to handle additional cast operations beyond just bitcast.
Fixes: [#146037](#146037)
Summary
The optimization now supports folding bitwise operations (AND/OR/XOR)
with the following cast operations:
- bitcast (original functionality)
- trunc (truncate)
- sext (sign extend)
- zext (zero extend)
The transformation pattern is:
bitop(castop(x), castop(y)) -> castop(bitop(x, y))
This reduces the number of cast instructions from 2 to 1, improving
performance on targets where cast operations
are expensive or where performing bitwise operations on narrower types
is beneficial.
Implementation Details
- Renamed foldBitOpOfBitcasts to foldBitOpOfCastops to reflect broader
functionality
- Extended pattern matching to handle any CastInst operation
- Added validation for each cast type's constraints (e.g., trunc
requires source > dest)
- Updated cost model to use the actual cast opcode
- Preserves IR flags from original instructions
- Handles multi-use scenarios appropriately
Testing
- Added comprehensive tests in
test/Transforms/VectorCombine/bitop-of-castops.ll
- Tests cover all supported cast types with all bitwise operations
- Includes negative tests for unsupported patterns
- All existing VectorCombine tests pass
