Hi!

As discovered in my range class work, we seem to generate a significant 
amount of useless range info out of VRP.

Is there any reason why we can't avoid generating any range info that 
spans the entire domain, and yet contains nothing in the non-zero bitmask?

The attached patch passes bootstrap, and the one regression it causes is 
because now the -Walloca-larger-than= pass is better able to determine 
that there is no range information at all, and the testcase is 
unbounded.  So...win, win.

OK for trunk?

Can you please do this in set_range_info itself?  Thus, if min ==
wi::min_value && max == wi::max_value
simply return?  (do not use TYPE_MIN?MAX_VALUE please)

Thanks,
Richard.

The reason I did it in vrp_finalize is because if you do it in
set_range_info, you break set_nonzero_bits when setting bits on an SSA
that currently has no range info:

void
set_nonzero_bits (tree name, const wide_int_ref &mask)
{
  gcc_assert (!POINTER_TYPE_P (TREE_TYPE (name)));
  if (SSA_NAME_RANGE_INFO (name) == NULL)
    set_range_info (name, VR_RANGE,
   TYPE_MIN_VALUE (TREE_TYPE (name)),
   TYPE_MAX_VALUE (TREE_TYPE (name)));
  range_info_def *ri = SSA_NAME_RANGE_INFO (name);
  ri->set_nonzero_bits (mask);
}

Let me know how you'd like me to proceed.

Just factor out a set_range_info_raw and call that then from here.

And don't call it if the mask is all ones.  Perhaps set_range_info
and set_nonzero_bits even should ggc_free and clear earlier range_info_def
if the range is all values and nonzero bit mask is all ones.
Or do we share range_info_def between multiple SSA_NAMEs?  If yes, of course
we shouldn't use ggc_free.

We shouldn't as we don't copy on change.  We do for points-to but only for the
bitmap pointer IIRC.

How about this?

Won't this misbehave if we have a narrower range on some SSA_NAME and
call set_range_info to make it VARYING?
In that case (i.e. SSA_NAME_RANGE_INFO (name) != NULL), we should either
set_range_info_raw too (if nonzero_bits is not all ones) or clear
SSA_NAME_RANGE_INFO (otherwise).

Similarly, if SSA_NAME_RANGE_INFO is previously non-NULL, but min/max
are VARYING and the new mask is -1, shouldn't we free it rather than
set it to the default?

If we consider the cases rare enough to worry about, at least your
above
  if (min == wi::min_value (TYPE_PRECISION (type), TYPE_SIGN (type))
      && max == wi::max_value (TYPE_PRECISION (type), TYPE_SIGN (type)))
should be
  gcc_assert (!POINTER_TYPE_P (TREE_TYPE (name)));
  if (SSA_NAME_RANGE_INFO (name) == NULL
      && min == wi::min_value (TYPE_PRECISION (type), TYPE_SIGN (type))
      && max == wi::max_value (TYPE_PRECISION (type), TYPE_SIGN (type)))
We'd then not misbehave, just might in some rare cases keep
SSA_NAME_RANGE_INFO non-NULL even if it contains the default stuff.
