//
// The LoopPredication pass tries to convert loop variant range checks to loop
// invariant by widening checks across loop iterations. For example, it will
// convert
//
// for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
// guard(i < len);
// ...
// }
//
// to
//
// for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
// guard(n - 1 < len);
// ...
// }
//
// After this transformation the condition of the guard is loop invariant, so
// loop-unswitch can later unswitch the loop by this condition which basically
// predicates the loop by the widened condition:
//
// if (n - 1 < len)
// for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
// ...
// }
// else
// deoptimize
//
// It's tempting to rely on SCEV here, but it has proven to be problematic.
// Generally the facts SCEV provides about the increment step of add
// recurrences are true if the backedge of the loop is taken, which implicitly
// assumes that the guard doesn't fail. Using these facts to optimize the
// guard results in a circular logic where the guard is optimized under the
// assumption that it never fails.
//
// For example, in the loop below the induction variable will be marked as nuw
// basing on the guard. Basing on nuw the guard predicate will be considered
// monotonic. Given a monotonic condition it's tempting to replace the induction
// variable in the condition with its value on the last iteration. But this
// transformation is not correct, e.g. e = 4, b = 5 breaks the loop.
//
// for (int i = b; i != e; i++)
// guard(i u< len)
//
// One of the ways to reason about this problem is to use an inductive proof
// approach. Given the loop:
//
// if (B(0)) {
// do {
// I = PHI(0, I.INC)
// I.INC = I + Step
// guard(G(I));
// } while (B(I));
// }
//
// where B(x) and G(x) are predicates that map integers to booleans, we want a
// loop invariant expression M such the following program has the same semantics
// as the above:
//
// if (B(0)) {
// do {
// I = PHI(0, I.INC)
// I.INC = I + Step
// guard(G(0) && M);
// } while (B(I));
// }
//
// One solution for M is M = forall X . (G(X) && B(X)) => G(X + Step)
//
// Informal proof that the transformation above is correct:
//
// By the definition of guards we can rewrite the guard condition to:
// G(I) && G(0) && M
//
// Let's prove that for each iteration of the loop:
// G(0) && M => G(I)
// And the condition above can be simplified to G(Start) && M.
//
// Induction base.
// G(0) && M => G(0)
//
// Induction step. Assuming G(0) && M => G(I) on the subsequent
// iteration:
//
// B(I) is true because it's the backedge condition.
// G(I) is true because the backedge is guarded by this condition.
//
// So M = forall X . (G(X) && B(X)) => G(X + Step) implies G(I + Step).
//
// Note that we can use anything stronger than M, i.e. any condition which
// implies M.
//
// When S = 1 (i.e. forward iterating loop), the transformation is supported
// when:
// * The loop has a single latch with the condition of the form:
// B(X) = latchStart + X <pred> latchLimit,
// where <pred> is u<, u<=, s<, or s<=.
// * The guard condition is of the form
// G(X) = guardStart + X u< guardLimit
//
// For the ult latch comparison case M is:
// forall X . guardStart + X u< guardLimit && latchStart + X <u latchLimit =>
// guardStart + X + 1 u< guardLimit
//
// The only way the antecedent can be true and the consequent can be false is
// if
// X == guardLimit - 1 - guardStart
// (and guardLimit is non-zero, but we won't use this latter fact).
// If X == guardLimit - 1 - guardStart then the second half of the antecedent is
// latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart u< latchLimit
// and its negation is
// latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart u>= latchLimit
//
// In other words, if
// latchLimit u<= latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart
// then:
// (the ranges below are written in ConstantRange notation, where [A, B) is the
// set for (I = A; I != B; I++ /*maywrap*/) yield(I);)
//
// forall X . guardStart + X u< guardLimit &&
// latchStart + X u< latchLimit =>
// guardStart + X + 1 u< guardLimit
// == forall X . guardStart + X u< guardLimit &&
// latchStart + X u< latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart =>
// guardStart + X + 1 u< guardLimit
// == forall X . (guardStart + X) in [0, guardLimit) &&
// (latchStart + X) in [0, latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart) =>
// (guardStart + X + 1) in [0, guardLimit)
// == forall X . X in [-guardStart, guardLimit - guardStart) &&
// X in [-latchStart, guardLimit - 1 - guardStart) =>
// X in [-guardStart - 1, guardLimit - guardStart - 1)
// == true
//
// So the widened condition is:
// guardStart u< guardLimit &&
// latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart u>= latchLimit
// Similarly for ule condition the widened condition is:
// guardStart u< guardLimit &&
// latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart u> latchLimit
// For slt condition the widened condition is:
// guardStart u< guardLimit &&
// latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart s>= latchLimit
// For sle condition the widened condition is:
// guardStart u< guardLimit &&
// latchStart + guardLimit - 1 - guardStart s> latchLimit
//
// When S = -1 (i.e. reverse iterating loop), the transformation is supported
// when:
// * The loop has a single latch with the condition of the form:
// B(X) = X <pred> latchLimit, where <pred> is u>, u>=, s>, or s>=.
// * The guard condition is of the form
// G(X) = X - 1 u< guardLimit
//
// For the ugt latch comparison case M is:
// forall X. X-1 u< guardLimit and X u> latchLimit => X-2 u< guardLimit
//
// The only way the antecedent can be true and the consequent can be false is if
// X == 1.
// If X == 1 then the second half of the antecedent is
// 1 u> latchLimit, and its negation is latchLimit u>= 1.
//
// So the widened condition is:
// guardStart u< guardLimit && latchLimit u>= 1.
// Similarly for sgt condition the widened condition is:
// guardStart u< guardLimit && latchLimit s>= 1.
// For uge condition the widened condition is:
// guardStart u< guardLimit && latchLimit u> 1.
// For sge condition the widened condition is:
// guardStart u< guardLimit && latchLimit s> 1.
