Hi,

Here's a trivial patch to relax the FP math also
if -cl-fast-relaxed-math is set.

I think the test should also check for the function target attribute.

What about the other flags? I think this patch should handle (maybe just test?) all of the CL fast math flags instead of just this one ( -cl-no-signed-zeros, -cl-unsafe-math-optimizations, -cl-finite-math-only, and -cl-fast-relaxed-math)


This supersedes the previous patch with title
"if unsafe-fp-math FN attribute is set, enable reduction
detection with float operations"

Hi Hal,

OK, I didn't know which way was the chosen "future approach" or
if they both are used for some use cases.

I just noticed that when I set -cl-fast-relaxed-math in OpenCL C,
it didn't propagate to the FP instructions as 'fast' attributes,
but the func attribute did get set.

So I suppose it should be investigated why the flags are not
generated to the produced instructions in this case instead
in case the fnattr is deprecated?

Pekka,

What's your motivation for doing this? Aside from the fact that we
can't yet set fast math flags on function calls (to sqrt, etc.), I
think we're pretty close to removing the function attribute all
together. The instruction-level flags play much nicer with LTO, and
give more precision control to the frontends; it is not clear to me
that overriding them with the function-level attribute is desirable.

[LoopVectorizer] if unsafe-fp-math FN attribute is set, enable
reduction detection with float operations

Hi,

The attached patch checks the function attributes for
"unsafe-fp-math" to relax FP constraints when detecting reduction
operations.
