This function doesn't seem to care about conditional vectorization
support, so why are you changing it?

The main difference between IFN_COND_ADD and IFN_COND_LEN_ADD is that
IFN_COND_ADD makes logical sense for scalars, whereas IFN_COND_LEN_ADD
only makes sense for vectors.  So I think if-conversion has to create
IFN_COND_ADD rather than IFN_COND_LEN_ADD even for targets that only
support IFN_COND_LEN_ADD.  (Which is what the patch does.)

IFN_COND_LEN_ADD is really a generalisation of IFN_COND_ADD.  In a
sense, every target that supports IFN_COND_LEN_ADD also supports
IFN_COND_ADD.  All we need is two extra arguments.  And the patch
does seem to take that approach (by adding dummy length arguments).

So I think there are at least four ways we could go:

(1) RVV implements cond_* optabs as expanders.  RVV therefore supports
both IFN_COND_ADD and IFN_COND_LEN_ADD.  No dummy length arguments
are needed at the gimple level.

(2) Target-independent code automatically provides cond_* optabs
based on cond_len_* optabs.  Otherwise the same as (1).

(3) A gimple pass lowers IFN_COND_ADD to IFN_COND_LEN_ADD on targets
that need it.  Could be vec lowering or isel.

(4) The vectoriser maintains the distinction between IFN_COND_ADD and
IFN_COND_LEN_ADD from the outset.  It adds dummy length arguments
where necessary.

The patch is going for (4).  But I think we should at least consider
whether any of the other alternatives make sense.

If we do go for (4), I think the get_conditional_len_internal_fn
is in the wrong place.  It should be applied:

  internal_fn ifn;
  if (internal_fn_p (cfn))
ifn = as_internal_fn (cfn);
  else
ifn = associated_internal_fn (fndecl);
  if (ifn != IFN_LAST && direct_internal_fn_p (ifn))
{
  // After this point

I don't think we should assume that every IFN_COND_* has an associated
tree code.  It should be possible to create IFN_COND_*s from unconditional
internal functions too.  So rather than use:

  tree_code code = conditional_internal_fn_code (ifn);
  len_ifn = get_conditional_len_internal_fn (code);

I think we should have an internal-fn helper that returns IFN_COND_LEN_*
for a given IFN_COND_*.  It could handle IFN_MASK_LOAD -> IFN_MASK_LEN_LOAD
etc. too.

It would help if we combined the COND_* and COND_LEN_* definitions.
For example:

DEF_INTERNAL_OPTAB_FN (COND_ADD, ECF_CONST, cond_add, cond_binary)
DEF_INTERNAL_OPTAB_FN (COND_LEN_ADD, ECF_CONST, cond_len_add, cond_len_binary)

could become:

DEF_INTERNAL_COND_FN (ADD, ECF_CONST, add, binary)

that expands to the COND_ADD and COND_LEN_ADD definitions.  This would
help to keep the definitions in sync and would make it eaiser to do a
mapping between COND_* and COND_LEN_*.

Thanks,
Richard

How about get_len_internal_fn?

/* If there exists an internal function like IFN that operates on vectors,
   but with additional length and bias parameters, return the internal_fn

I think only (1) and (4) make sense.  The vectorizer would need to
check for IFN_COND_LEN_ADD or IFN_COND_ADD support anyway even
when only emitting IFN_COND_ADD.  Since we've already gone half-way
then we can as well do (4).  That also possibly simplifies N targets
as opposed to just the vectorizer.  So my preference would be (4),
but I'm also fine with (1).

Hi, Richi. Thank you so much for review.

>> This function doesn't seem to care about conditional vectorization
>> support, so why are you changing it?

I debug and analyze the code here:

Breakpoint 1, vectorizable_call (vinfo=0x3d358d0, stmt_info=0x3dcc820, gsi=0x0, 
vec_stmt=0x0, slp_node=0x0, cost_vec=0x7fffc668) at 
../../../riscv-gcc/gcc/tree-vect-stmts.cc:3485
3485ifn = vectorizable_internal_function (cfn, callee, vectype_out,
(gdb) p cfn
$1 = CFN_COND_ADD
(gdb) call print_gimple_stmt(stdout,stmt,0,0)
_9 = .COND_ADD (_27, _6, _8, _6);

When target like RISC-V didnt' support COND_* (we only support COND_LEN_*, no 
support COND_*),
ifn will be IFN_LAST.
Also, the following code doesn't modify ifn until
"internal_fn cond_fn = get_conditional_internal_fn (ifn);"
When ifn == IFN_LAST, cond_fn will IFN_LAST too.

So, I extend "vectorizable_internal_function" to return COND_LEN_*.

Am I going into wrong direction on debug && analysis.

>> what about reduc_indx?  Why check len_indes and not len_loop_p?

>> Note traditionally non-LEN fns would return -1 here, so ...

>> You are not actually using len_index to place the arguments.  See
>> how mask_opno is used.

I understand this patch codes look quite strange not natural.
Give me some time to share the story why I am doing this:

1. At the beginning, I want to write the codes naturally and very similiar with 
the current codes.
So it's natural to write the codes like this:
 
 if (mask_opno >= 0 && len_loop_p) {
 tree len = vect_get_loop_len
 tree bias = 
  }

However, we have the following case:
void foo1 (float * __restrict a, float * __restrict b, int * __restrict 
cond, int n)
{
   for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
if (cond[i])
   a[i] = b[i] + a[i];
 } 
 Note here "i<8" means niters = 8 and compile with known VF (fixed-length 
vector) to vectorize the codes.
 Then len_loop_p will be false.

 If I don't handle case, then the code will generate the IR:
 COND_LEN_ADD (maks, op1, op2, op3) 
 Missing LEN && BIAS argument which cause ICE.

2. So I use "int len_index = internal_fn_len_index (ifn);",
ifn is supported as COND_LEN_*, the len_index >= 0, otherwise, it will be 
-1.
 So I prepare LEN && BIAS arguments according to len_index.
 
 So I change the code into:
  if (len_index >= 0) {
 tree len = vect_get_loop_len
 tree bias = 
  }
   
3. Overall, I want to normalize COND_* into COND_LEN_*, when loop_len_p is 
false, then I create a dummy LEN for it.
It make the codes strange. 

4. I have another approach/prepared patch which makes codes more natural:
Enable COND_ in RISC-V port, then keep "tree-vect-ifcvt.cc" unchange,
and "vectorizable_internal_function" unchange.

And simpily write the codes like this:
 if (mask_opno >= 0 && len_loop_p) {
 tree len = vect_get_loop_len
 tree bias = 
  }
and when len_loop_p is true, I change to use "COND_LEN_xxx", otherwise 
reuse original flow.

Are you suggesting me doing this? Meaning enable COND_xxx (The patterns are 
duplicate I think if we have COND_LEN_xxx) in RISC-V port ?

>> You are producing patches too quickly, please double-check what you did
>> before posting for review.

I am so sorry this patch codes look quite strange and confusing.
I actually consider it for some time
(I have 2 prepared patches, this one which is not natural, the other only add a 
very few codes and look natural and more acceptable ), 
and compare them (the other one I need to support COND_xxx in RISC-V port).

Maybe it's better enable COND_xxx in RISC-V port so that the codes in 
middle-end look much more reasonable ?
I think maybe next time I should ask you first about the solution before I send 
the patch

Looking forward your suggestions.
Thanks.

Do you suggest we should add a macro like this first:

#define DEF_INTERNAL_COND_FN(NAME, FLAGS, OPTAB, TYPE) \

If yes, maybe I should first do this in a single patch first?

based on cond_len_* optabs.  Otherwise the same as (1).
 
(3) A gimple pass lowers IFN_COND_ADD to IFN_COND_LEN_ADD on targets
that need it.  Could be vec lowering or isel.
 
(4) The vectoriser maintains the distinction between IFN_COND_ADD and
IFN_COND_LEN_ADD from the outset.  It adds dummy length arguments
where necessary.
 
The patch is going for (4).  But I think we should at least consider
whether any of the other alternatives make sense.
 
If we do go for (4), I think the get_conditional_len_internal_fn
is in the wrong place.  It should be applied:
 
  internal_fn ifn;
  if (internal_fn_p (cfn))
ifn = as_internal_fn (cfn);
  else
ifn = associated_internal_fn (fndecl);
  if (ifn != IFN_LAST && direct_internal_fn_p (ifn))
{
  // After this point
 
I don't think we should assume that every IFN_COND_* has an associated
tree code.  It should be possible to create IFN_COND_*s from unconditional
internal functions too.  So rather than use:
 
  tree_code code = conditional_internal_fn_code (ifn);
  len_ifn = get_conditional_len_internal_fn (code);
 
I think we should have an internal-fn helper that returns IFN_COND_LEN_*
for a given IFN_COND_*.  It could handle IFN_MASK_LOAD -> IFN_MASK_LEN_LOAD
etc. too.
 
It would help if we combined the COND_* and COND_LEN_* definitions.
For example:
 
DEF_INTERNAL_OPTAB_FN (COND_ADD, ECF_CONST, cond_add, cond_binary)
DEF_INTERNAL_OPTAB_FN (COND_LEN_ADD, ECF_CONST, cond_len_add, cond_len_binary)
 
could become:
 
DEF_INTERNAL_COND_FN (ADD, ECF_CONST, add, binary)
 
that expands to the COND_ADD and COND_LEN_ADD definitions.  This would
help to keep the definitions in sync and would make it eaiser to do a
mapping between COND_* and COND_LEN_*.
 
Thanks,
Richard

Could you name this helper function for me? Does it call 
"get_conditional_len_internal_fn_for_conditional_fn" ?

Thanks.

Yeah.  (Think there's a missing backslash though.)

Yeah, doing it as a separate patch sounds good.
