When a loop is converted into a low-overhead loop using tail predication via FPSCR.LTPSIZE, the MQPRCopy pseudo-instruction is expanded into either two VMOVD or a single MVE_VORR, depending on whether the values written to the lanes with a 'false' predicate matter. (MVE_VORR uses the ambient LTPSIZE predicate, so it won't write those lanes at all; the double VMOVD is slower but gets them right.)

This check was done based on whether the output of the MQPRCopy is live coming out of the loop. But it missed a case where the live-out value is not itself an MQPRCopy, but is a predicated operation taking its false lanes from an MQPRCopy.

Fixes #162644, and adds a new MIR test case derived from the reproducer in that bug.

This is the second attempt at #163217. Instead of inhibiting tail predication when a problem is detected, it just adds the offending MQPRCopy to the existing list of ones that must be rewritten as two VMOVD, and keeps the rest of the loop tail-predicated as before.

If #163723 lands before this one, I can update the new helper function findVPTInactiveOperandIdx to use its new enum constant instead of having that ugly assert 🙂

These tests can often be cleaned up a fair amount. For example removing:

  • ModuleID and source_filename
  • Any Function Attrs
  • The intrinsic definitions
  • Sometimes the attributes and metadata
  • (Sometimes the entire llvm it partition can be emitted, but it is sometimes useful to keep to help explain the test.

Thanks. I've trimmed a lot of the cruft and the test still runs.

I had kind of intended to leave the source filename there, because it's the bug ticket number, which I could imagine being useful context in future. But that's needlessly opaque, so I've moved that into the comment, and actually said what the six-digit number is about 🙂

Equally a lot of these can often be removed to help simplify the test case.

Both documents, and futureproofs, the offset from i to the operand we
want, so the assertion with its comment isn't needed any more.
