Macro Definition Documentation

◆ UNSPEC_P

#define UNSPEC_P ( X)
Value:
(GET_CODE (X) == UNSPEC || GET_CODE (X) == UNSPEC_VOLATILE)
#define GET_CODE(RTX)
Definition rtl.h:725
Note this pass could be used to narrow memory loads too.  It's
not clear if that's profitable or not in general.

Function Documentation

◆ binop_implies_op2_fully_live()

static bool binop_implies_op2_fully_live ( rtx_code code)
static
Some operators imply that their second operand is fully live,
regardless of how many bits in the output are live.  An example
would be the shift count on a target without SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED
defined.

Return TRUE if CODE is such an operator.  FALSE otherwise.   

References SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED.

◆ carry_backpropagate()

unsigned HOST_WIDE_INT carry_backpropagate ( unsigned HOST_WIDE_INT mask,
enum rtx_code code,
rtx x )
X, with code CODE, is an operation for which safe_for_live_propagation
holds true, and bits set in MASK are live in the result.  Compute a
mask of (potentially) live bits in the non-constant inputs.  In case of
binop_implies_op2_fully_live (e.g. shifts), the computed mask may
exclusively pertain to the first operand.

◆ ext_dce_execute()

void ext_dce_execute ( void )
Use lifetime analyis to identify extensions that set bits that
are never read.  Turn such extensions into SUBREGs instead which
can often be propagated away.

◆ ext_dce_finish()

static void ext_dce_finish ( void )
static
Finalization of the ext-dce pass.  Primarily this means
releasing up the various bitmaps we utilize.

◆ ext_dce_init()

static void ext_dce_init ( void )
static
Initialization of the ext-dce pass.  Primarily this means
setting up the various bitmaps we utilize.

◆ ext_dce_process_bb()

static void ext_dce_process_bb ( basic_block bb)
static
Process a single basic block BB with current liveness information
in LIVENOW, returning updated liveness information.

If MODIFY is true, then this is the last pass and unnecessary
extensions should be eliminated when possible.  If an extension
is removed, the source pseudo is marked in CHANGED_PSEUDOS.

◆ ext_dce_process_sets()

static bool ext_dce_process_sets ( rtx_insn * insn,
rtx obj,
bitmap live_tmp )
static
Clear bits in LIVENOW and set bits in LIVE_TMP for objects
set/clobbered by OBJ contained in INSN.

Conceptually it is always safe to ignore a particular destination
here as that will result in more chunks of data being considered
live.  That's what happens when we "continue" the main loop when
we see something we don't know how to handle such as a vector
mode destination.

The more accurate we are in identifying what objects (and chunks
within an object) are set by INSN, the more aggressive the
optimization phase during use handling will be.

◆ ext_dce_process_uses()

static void ext_dce_process_uses ( rtx_insn * insn,
rtx obj,
bitmap live_tmp,
bool skipped_dest )
static
Process uses in INSN contained in OBJ.  Set appropriate bits in LIVENOW
for any chunks of pseudos that become live, potentially filtering using
bits from LIVE_TMP.

If MODIFY is true, then optimize sign/zero extensions to SUBREGs when
the extended bits are never read and mark pseudos which had extensions
eliminated in CHANGED_PSEUDOS.

◆ ext_dce_rd_transfer_n()

static bool ext_dce_rd_transfer_n ( int bb_index)
static
Process block number BB_INDEX as part of the backward
simple dataflow analysis.  Return TRUE if something in
this block changed or FALSE otherwise.

◆ ext_dce_try_optimize_insn()

static void ext_dce_try_optimize_insn ( rtx_insn * insn,
rtx set )
static
INSN has a sign/zero extended source inside SET that we will
try to turn into a SUBREG.

Referenced by ext_dce_process_uses().

◆ group_limit()

static int group_limit ( const_rtx reg)
static
We consider four bit groups for liveness:
bit 0..7   (least significant byte)
bit 8..15  (second least significant byte)
bit 16..31
bit 32..BITS_PER_WORD-1   
For the given REG, return the number of bit groups implied by the
size of the REG's mode, up to a maximum of 4 (number of bit groups
tracked by this pass).

For partial integer and variable sized modes also return 4.  This
could possibly be refined for something like PSI mode, but it
does not seem worth the effort.

◆ make_pass_ext_dce()

rtl_opt_pass * make_pass_ext_dce ( gcc::context * ctxt)

◆ make_reg_live()

static void make_reg_live ( bitmap bmap,
int regno )
static
Make all bit groups live for REGNO in bitmap BMAP.  For hard regs,
we assume all groups are live.  For a pseudo we consider the size
of the pseudo to avoid creating unnecessarily live chunks of data.   

References bitmap_set_bit, group_limit(), i, and regno_reg_rtx.

Referenced by ext_dce_init(), and ext_dce_process_sets().

◆ reset_subreg_promoted_p()

static void reset_subreg_promoted_p ( void )
static
We optimize away sign/zero extensions in this pass and replace
them with SUBREGs indicating certain bits are don't cares.

This changes the SUBREG_PROMOTED_VAR_P state of the object.
It is fairly painful to fix this on the fly, so we have
recorded which pseudos are affected and we look for SUBREGs
of those pseudos and fix them up.

◆ safe_for_live_propagation()

static bool safe_for_live_propagation ( rtx_code code)
static
If we know the destination of CODE only uses some low bits
(say just the QI bits of an SI operation), then return true
if we can propagate the need for just the subset of bits
from the destination to the sources.

FIXME: This is safe for operands 1 and 2 of an IF_THEN_ELSE, but not
operand 0.  Thus is likely would need some special casing to handle.
