We should instead use pointer2memref

Is this something upstreamable or already upstream

It says

This operation is intended solely as step during lowering, it has no side effects. A reverse operation that creates a memref from an index interpreted as a pointer is explicitly discouraged.

here

// CHECK-LABEL: func @test_load_store_conversion
// CHECK-SAME: %[[ARG0:.*]]: !llvm.ptr<1>
// CHECK-SAME: %[[ARG1:.*]]: i64
// CHECK: %[[MEMREF:.*]] = "enzymexla.ataddr"(%[[ARG0]]) {{.*}} memref<?xi8, 1>

The original load is typed as i64, can we preserve that here instead of doing an vector of i8?

My idea to solve this issue was to have custom load op which does
affine.vector_load_ty %memref[%idx] vector<4xi8> : memref<i8x?>, i64 -> f64

which basically combines the affine.vector_load and the bitcast afterwards in one operation.

Because the current vector load + bitcast approach may lose the information about the original type alignment etc and break things.

func.func @test_struct_access(%arg0: !llvm.ptr) {
%ptr = llvm.getelementptr %arg0[0, 0] : (!llvm.ptr) -> !llvm.ptr, !llvm.struct<(i64)>

I feel like it is better to apply this pass after converting all of the arguments to memrefs, that way we know the multidimensional sizes and underlying types

Do we ever get multidimensional arrays in our compilation pipeline?

I can see a problem with correctly handling that since all of the loads inside will be with a linear index so e.g.

f(%ptr : !llvm.ptr) {
  ...
  load %j * 4 + %i
  

should become this

f(%ptr : !memref<i8x10x4>) {
  ...
  affine.load[%j][%i]

But that is legal only if we can prove that 0 <= %i < 4

Otherwise it needs to be

  affine.load[%j + %i / 4][%i mod 4]

I guess we should generate the second one and try to use available information to simplify it to the first one

We can also run it before converting the args to memref but we should have a simplification/pattern which goes load(pointer2memref(memref2pointer(memref))) to load(memref) and adjusts the indices appropriately.
