[JumpThreading] Thread jumps through two basic blocks
Summary:
This patch teaches JumpThreading.cpp to thread through two basic
blocks like:
bb3:
%var = phi i32* [ null, %bb1 ], [ @a, %bb2 ]
%tobool = icmp eq i32 %cond, 0
br i1 %tobool, label %bb4, label ...
bb4:
%cmp = icmp eq i32* %var, null
br i1 %cmp, label bb5, label bb6
by duplicating basic blocks like bb3 above. Once we duplicate bb3 as
bb3.dup and redirect edge bb2->bb3 to bb2->bb3.dup, we have:
bb3:
%var = phi i32* [ @a, %bb2 ]
%tobool = icmp eq i32 %cond, 0
br i1 %tobool, label %bb4, label ...
bb3.dup:
%var = phi i32* [ null, %bb1 ]
%tobool = icmp eq i32 %cond, 0
br i1 %tobool, label %bb4, label ...
bb4:
%cmp = icmp eq i32* %var, null
br i1 %cmp, label bb5, label bb6
Then the existing code in JumpThreading.cpp can thread edge
bb3.dup->bb4 through bb4 and eventually create bb3.dup->bb5.
