Bug ID: 97043
Summary: latent wrong-code with SLP vectorization
Product: gcc
Version: 10.2.1
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: tree-optimization
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
There's a latent wrong-code bug on the branches visible with the
gcc.dg/vect/pr81410.c testcase. The issue is avoided on trunk
by means of delaying optimizing/validating of SLP permutations until
the vectorization factor is final whilst on branches we throw away
the permutation prematurely via
if (!this_load_permuted
/* The load requires permutation when unrolling exposes
a gap either because the group is larger than the SLP
group-size or because there is a gap between the groups.
*/
&& (known_eq (unrolling_factor, 1U)
|| (group_size == DR_GROUP_SIZE (first_stmt_info)
&& DR_GROUP_GAP (first_stmt_info) == 0)))
{
SLP_TREE_LOAD_PERMUTATION (load_node).release ();
because unrolling_factor is 1 but later is upped to 2 due to hybrid
SLP/non-SLP vectorization. This causes us to run into the gap adjustment
code added by the PR81410 fix:
/* With SLP permutation we load the gaps as well, without
we need to skip the gaps after we manage to fully load
all elements. group_gap_adj is DR_GROUP_SIZE here. */
group_elt += nunits;
if (maybe_ne (group_gap_adj, 0U)
&& !slp_perm
&& known_eq (group_elt, group_size - group_gap_adj))
{
poly_wide_int bump_val
= (wi::to_wide (TYPE_SIZE_UNIT (elem_type))
* group_gap_adj);
tree bump = wide_int_to_tree (sizetype, bump_val);
dataref_ptr = bump_vector_ptr (dataref_ptr, ptr_incr, gsi,
stmt_info, bump);
group_elt = 0;
}
which notes that we do not load the gaps. Now, alignment analysis
correctly analyzes the load of x[] to be aligned due to the VF being 2:
poly_uint64 vf = LOOP_VINFO_VECT_FACTOR (loop_vinfo);
step_preserves_misalignment_p
= multiple_p (DR_STEP_ALIGNMENT (dr_info->dr) * vf, vect_align_c);
but that assumes contiguous aligned loads. The
VMAT_CONTIGUOUS-with-gap-without-permutation vectorization OTOH assumes that
each individual instance
of the group is aligned which it is not. Trying to fix up there
would also require unaligned access support checking at analysis time
as well as possible cost adjustments.
