perl -e '$/ = undef; for (split(/\n/, <>)) { s:^ *///? ?::; print " <p>\n" if !$on && $_ =~ /\S/; print " </p>\n" if $on && $_ =~ /^\s*$/; print " $_\n"; $on = ($_ =~ /\S/); } print " </p>\n" if $on'

|
|
<p>This document serves as a high level summary of the optimization features
|
|
that LLVM provides. Optimizations are implemented as Passes that traverse some
|
|
portion of a program to either collect information or transform the program.
|
|
The table below divides the passes that LLVM provides into three categories.
|
|
Analysis passes compute information that other passes can use or for debugging
|
|
or program visualization purposes. Transform passes can use (or invalidate)
|
|
the analysis passes. Transform passes all mutate the program in some way.
|
|
Utility passes provides some utility but don't otherwise fit categorization.
|
|
For example passes to extract functions to bitcode or write a module to
|
|
bitcode are neither analysis nor transform passes.
|
|
<p>The table below provides a quick summary of each pass and links to the more
|
|
complete pass description later in the document.</p>

<p>This is a simple N^2 alias analysis accuracy evaluator.
|
|
Basically, for each function in the program, it simply queries to see how the

|
alias analysis implementation answers alias queries between each pair of
|
|
pointers in the function.</p>
|
|
|
|

Spadini, and Wojciech Stryjewski.</p>

</div>
|
|
<div class="doc_text">
|
|
<p>
|
|
This is an implementation of Andersen's interprocedural alias
|
|
analysis
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In pointer analysis terms, this is a subset-based, flow-insensitive,
|
|
field-sensitive, and context-insensitive algorithm pointer algorithm.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
This algorithm is implemented as three stages:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Object identification.</li>
|
|
<li>Inclusion constraint identification.</li>
|
|
<li>Offline constraint graph optimization.</li>
|
|
<li>Inclusion constraint solving.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The object identification stage identifies all of the memory objects in the
|
|
program, which includes globals, heap allocated objects, and stack allocated
|
|
objects.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The inclusion constraint identification stage finds all inclusion constraints
|
|
in the program by scanning the program, looking for pointer assignments and
|
|
other statements that effect the points-to graph. For a statement like
|
|
<code><var>A</var> = <var>B</var></code>, this statement is processed to
|
|
indicate that <var>A</var> can point to anything that <var>B</var> can point
|
|
to. Constraints can handle copies, loads, and stores, and address taking.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The offline constraint graph optimization portion includes offline variable
|
|
substitution algorithms intended to computer pointer and location
|
|
equivalences. Pointer equivalences are those pointers that will have the
|
|
same points-to sets, and location equivalences are those variables that
|
|
always appear together in points-to sets.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The inclusion constraint solving phase iteratively propagates the inclusion
|
|
constraints until a fixed point is reached. This is an O(<var>n</var>³)
|
|
algorithm.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Function constraints are handled as if they were structs with <var>X</var>
|
|
fields. Thus, an access to argument <var>X</var> of function <var>Y</var> is
|
|
an access to node index <code>getNode(<var>Y</var>) + <var>X</var></code>.
|
|
This representation allows handling of indirect calls without any issues. To
|
|
wit, an indirect call <code><var>Y</var>(<var>a</var>,<var>b</var>)</code> is
|
|
equivalent to <code>*(<var>Y</var> + 1) = <var>a</var>, *(<var>Y</var> + 2) =
|
|
<var>b</var></code>. The return node for a function <var>F</var> is always
|
|
located at <code>getNode(<var>F</var>) + CallReturnPos</code>. The arguments
|
|
start at <code>getNode(<var>F</var>) + CallArgPos</code>.

This pass value numbers load and call instructions. To do this, it finds

|
lexically identical load instructions, and uses alias analysis to determine
|
|
which loads are guaranteed to produce the same value. To value number call
|
|
instructions, it looks for calls to functions that do not write to memory

which do not have intervening instructions that clobber the memory that is

read from.

that it can disambiguate the load instructions. The more powerful these base

analyses are, the more powerful the resultant value numbering will be.

<p>This pass implements a very simple profile guided basic block placement
|
|
algorithm. The idea is to put frequently executed blocks together at the
|
|
start of the function, and hopefully increase the number of fall-through
|
|
conditional branches. If there is no profile information for a particular
|
|
function, this pass basically orders blocks in depth-first order.</p>
|
|
<p>The algorithm implemented here is basically "Algo1" from "Profile Guided
|
|
Code Positioning" by Pettis and Hansen, except that it uses basic block
|
|
counts instead of edge counts. This could be improved in many ways, but is
|
|
very simple for now.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Basically we "place" the entry block, then loop over all successors in a
|
|
DFO, placing the most frequently executed successor until we run out of
|
|
blocks. Did we mention that this was <b>extremely</b> simplistic? This is
|
|
also much slower than it could be. When it becomes important, this pass
|
|
will be rewritten to use a better algorithm, and then we can worry about
|
|
efficiency.</p>

<p>Correlated Expression Elimination propagates information from conditional

branches to blocks dominated by destinations of the branch. It propagates
|
|
information from the condition check itself into the body of the branch,
|
|
allowing transformations like these for example:</p>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
if (i == 7)
|
|
... 4*i; // constant propagation
|
|
|
|
M = i+1; N = j+1;

if (i == j)

X = M-N; // = M-M == 0;

</pre></blockquote>

<p>This is called Correlated Expression Elimination because we eliminate or

simplify expressions that are correlated with the direction of a branch. In
