919 check-ins using file README.md version 425ac25136

2020-01-13
03:57
Add elimination of LOAD-STORE redundancy - don't put into the callframe a value that we just got from there. This check may or may not be useful; the test suite exercises it but only on 'set x '. It does come up in other langauges. Leaf check-in: 933c8a03f0 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
2020-01-09
21:56
Handle 'invokeExpanded'. Restore the ability to remove references to the callframe when calling compiled functions or builtins that don't use it. check-in: b54d2746cb user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
2020-01-08
03:12
Handle correctly the case where there is 'moveFromCallFrame' the same variable from the same callframe on two converging execution paths. check-in: c3e7daa5b9 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
2020-01-07
03:18
Fix incorrect analysis of avail vars at a merge point. All tests but poly1305 pass. Still mislinkage of call frames in direct operation tests. check-in: 7ab1ef546d user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
2020-01-05
20:51
Calculate effect of 'invoke' on variable analysis. Not yet 100% correct - breaks six additional test cases. check-in: 0fdceaac26 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
05:51
Liveness analysis of variables in the callframe, enabling store-store and dead-store optimizations. Build is working only because poly1305::compute is commented out. check-in: e392a97b1a user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
2020-01-04
00:17
Refine callframe effect of direct operations check-in: 6205ad764a user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe

2020-01-03
23:22
Refine the callframe effect of 'variable' check-in: b0449c3905 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
23:19
refine callframe effect of 'nsupvar' and 'upvar' check-in: 3c1db65142 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
22:51
Restore the logic that, after a catch, requires any globals that are aliased in the callframe to be reloaded lest they alias errorInfo or errorCode. Also propagate that requirement out to callers of the proc containing the catch. check-in: 0acf314fef user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
20:47
Update a few missing ops in quadcodes.txt check-in: fedf0433fc user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
19:48
Patch out poly1305::compute for now - segfault! - and break out the 'vartest' tests. check-in: 13b2b5767e user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
2020-01-02
21:12
Make the poly1305 routines explicit in the tester check-in: 7466722d0e user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
20:48
Detect that 'invoke' preserves some callframe variables. Add buffer flushing so that the identity of a test is reported before a crash. Remove some redundant test invocations. check-in: 65069fda8f user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe, current
18:50
Add consistency check that callframes are linked correctly before generating speculative phi operations. check-in: b541601fb1 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe

Need to write back to the stack after duplication. check-in: 4d3d8fac22 user: dkf tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
2020-01-01
23:51
Don't abort all the performance tests because one test throws an error. Make the 'arrayExists' operation consistent with 'extractArray' and 'extractScalar' throughout (there were bad optimizations). Revert a misguided change to 'dict update' that was actually an attempt to work around the 'extractScalar' inconsistency. check-in: 5b6ac87fe8 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
2019-12-31
17:32
Separate exists and doesn't-exist paths in 'translate' of read-modify-write operations. Fix overeager elimination of 'extractArray'. Move 'partialredundancy' off to its own specializer step, since 'tidy' passes may NOT introduce new variables. Only 'lsetest' is now failing. check-in: 09d85d696a user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
00:10
Finish up elision of 'moveFromCallFrame' in the simpler cases. check-in: bbb81cb21e user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
2019-12-30
03:14
Provide a hook on which to hang speculative phi generation. check-in: f635c5689f user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
01:50
Peephole optimization of 'moveFromCallFrame' when the value in the callframe is known. (Will be much more effective once more instructions are analyzed: notably 'invoke' and 'phi'.) check-in: 188df1dde4 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
2019-12-27
23:01
Add the basic framework for forward analysis of available callframe variables check-in: 85ea960b98 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
2019-12-01
20:32
Remove remnants of unused 'startCatch' and 'callFrameNop' instructions, and the pass that removes them (since they're never emitted, they're never removed). check-in: c2d0f14a30 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
20:21
Remove one false start at callframe analysis, and add some stubs for another attack on the problem. check-in: 5741a8ab06 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
2019-11-26
09:58
Starting to support 8.7's arrays with defaults Leaf check-in: e7a8c3f643 user: dkf tags: dkf-array-default
2019-11-24
01:15
Modify varargs to not rewrite if the target procedure is not being compiled. This change restores poly1305 to compilability. check-in: e86f7b8518 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
2019-11-23
23:21
Merge trunk and return to mostly-working status. Two test cases commented away: magicreturn and poly1305. check-in: 824a7974cf user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe
23:02
merge trunk check-in: c3fc2d4137 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe

22:29
Merge in refactoring of two operations, directIsArray and directMakeArray, that interact with the callframe and were missed on the first go. Leaf check-in: 7a21900824 user: kbk tags: trunk
22:24

2019-11-18
20:29

2019-11-15
23:09
Change return type of directUnset and directUnsetArray from CALLFRAME FAIL to CALLFRAME FAIL BOOLEAN, because void values aren't handled well in the code issuer. Simply discard the unused result. check-in: 731e9cafc6 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-directops
2019-11-13
03:55
directUnset interacts with the callframe and retuns CALLFRAME FAIL check-in: e06c6257c1 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-directops

Add conversion to IMPURE ZEROONE INT, needed in booltest. Keep code motion from messing with the callframe for now. Patch out the handful of remaining tests that abort. Next up: fix the dictest tests involving 'dict update', lsetest, and re-add support for direct ops. check-in: 27339e7e0c user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
2019-01-22

Run dead code elimination before copy propagation because copyprop explodes otherwise. check-in: 9e16d3b8d6 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe

2019-01-14
03:46
Further development of varargs. Note that the invocation sequence is much, much simpler than it used to be, so 'invoke.tcl' is no more. check-in: 90e908dae3 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
2019-01-13
15:43
Clean out dead 'exists.tcl' source check-in: f283d28ebd user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
15:38
Merge the (not-working) vararg reform branch. It appears that both these tasks need to be attacked at the same time because the changes are tightly interwoven. check-in: 05c93c9cc5 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
2019-01-09

Oops, one extra callframe ref in 'callframe-error-quads' check-in: cdc4d10e86 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
2019-01-01
23:06
Update quadcode generation and documentation so that 'direct' operations refer to the callframe (which is necessary in the event that they are emitted to deal with double-dereference). CODE ISSUER IS NOT YET UPDATED TO COPE WITH THE CHANGE. check-in: 104debc734 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
21:57
Move callframe moves to the actual points where callframe values are moved. They can then be optimized by avaiability and liveness analysis. check-in: dbd9571178 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-refactor-callframe
2018-12-29
21:00
Keep dictionary iterations out of the callframe - they can never be addressed by upvar check-in: ea7b788fb4 user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe

Open a branch for some experiments on refactoring callframe operations check-in: 7454a5228c user: kbk tags: kbk-refactor-callframe

2018-12-17
23:19
Integrate kbk-jumpthread: replace the node-by-node splitting with a single pass that identifies many threading opportunities and also reduces the number of splits. Eliminate the old nodesplit pass, and the renameTemps pass, which is no longer required. check-in: a934a75e1f user: kbk tags: trunk
23:13
result, returnCode, returnOptions must be split into FAIL and non-FAIL paths because the backend isn't prepared to deal with all combinations of FAIL + someOtherType. Closed-Leaf check-in: 94358b53ea user: kbk tags: kbk-jumpthread
22:08
Finish jump threading - actually do the block duplication and redirection of jumps. Add the logic for SSA deconstruction (required by jump threading) and make SSA construction work with the deconstructed result. check-in: a41b93130e user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-jumpthread
2018-12-16
05:18
Add constant folding for unary +. It probably ought to be folded out altogether, since it serves only to trigger type checking. Add an outline of the actual process of jump threading once the threads have been determined. check-in: c388c8737b user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-jumpthread
04:55
Add a 'cos2' test case to illustrate the cost of non-numeric ordering comparisons check-in: 86167d6917 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-jumpthread

Remove vestiges of the old node splitter from 'inline.tcl'. Make console dribble in 'jumpthread.tcl' contingent on debug-jumpthread. check-in: fd2ea3e6f1 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-jumpthread
04:09
OOPS! Didn't add the new 'jumpthread.tcl' module! Remove the old 'nodesplit.tcl', and remove the 'renameTemps' pass since 'nodesplit' was the only thing that ever depended on it. check-in: 67b989853b user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-jumpthread
01:34
Calculation of anticipable tests for jump threading check-in: f138663832 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-jumpthread

Add a micropass to optimize away conditional jumps that are identical to a conditional jump in a dominator. (Partial redundancy elimination appears to create these.) check-in: 344567b919 user: kbk tags: trunk

Fixes that make poly1305 compilable. check-in: 602b3659c7 user: kbk tags: trunk
02:23
Increase recursion limit to allow compilation of longer procedures. Correct a bug in expandInlines that left dangling references to procedure args. Correct a bug in analyzeTypes where the INT/ENTIER break was set to int32 rather than int64. Add shift operations to constfold. Improve auditing. Merge trunk. Closed-Leaf check-in: 023d0828f0 user: kbk tags: poly1305

Huge mess of half-converted code, with something horrible inside. Definitely buggy... check-in: 462eec7d43 user: dkf tags: list-and-dict-types
03:15
Merge kbk-pre - add the optimizations of loop inversion (enables loop-invariant code motion) and partial redundancy elimination, and fix multiple bugs exposed by these optimizations. check-in: 0e06123e97 user: kbk tags: trunk
03:13
Array initialization cannot be hoisted because every array needs its own initArray. Code insertion must ignore operations that it has already inserted, or infinite loops can result. All tests pass! Closed-Leaf check-in: cf87d02677 user: kbk tags: kbk-pre
01:42
Remove speculative phis if they turned out not to be useful check-in: bd6294fade user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-pre
2018-12-05
05:37
Rewrite pre_insert and pre_phi_translate to NOT use a persistent cache. The missing piece in VanD04 is that pre_insert must call pre_phi_translate for all the anticipated expressions first, and then use the dictionary that results for the translated values. There are still further bugs, but we're over this hump at least. check-in: 0bbe5a5dd3 user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-pre
2018-12-03
05:08
Stop constant folding from leaving dead code behind, Add a test for simple nested iterations, using [lmap]. Temporarily patch 'foreach' operations from being hoistable - I don't think this will be necessary, but it's tickling other bugs. Make translation of values across a phi work if one of the inputs to the phi is a literal.

Added a couple of tests to trigger loop-invariant code motion. Corrected du-chain mismanagement in callframe.tcl (deleting moveToCallFrame), copyprop.tcl (deleting any quads), uselessphis (deleting anything), and narrow.tcl (cleanupNarrow, deleting anything). NOT WORKING: During node splitting, at least 'flightawarebench', 'msrange', 'bug7c59', and 'cse-caller' are still coming out with mismanaged chains. Improved auditing in the 'tidy' pass of the transformer, and made it less aggressive about rechecking everything. NOT WORKING: in the 'wordcounter2' test case, it's missing at least one invocation of 'initArrayIfNotExists' because we're falling into the code gen in 'compile.tcl' for initArrayIfNotExists(ARRAY). Advanced partial redundancy elimination to 'code complete' status. The stuff surrounding it is in bad enough shape at the moment that it is far from tested, and known not to be working for everything, but is patched out at the moment. check-in: 02ab4301aa user: kbk tags: notworking, kbk-pre

Merge 'infline' branch - a few more trivial optimizations check-in: 35264fe340 user: kbk tags: trunk
05:27
Temporary hack - follow 'initException' that's known to be a FAIL with 'extractFail' so that downstream code knows the status - avoids excess node splits check-in: 3061db19f1 user: kbk tags: inline
05:04
Additional minor optimization - exceptions can be discarded if no code looks at them. check-in: 6ed839c56b user: kbk tags: inline
04:30
Additional optimization - flatten away 'result' when the answer is known. check-in: 8ed8c62621 user: kbk tags: inline
04:01
Merge mark - dovetail merged a tranche of changes into trunk. check-in: 0f30f4eff6 user: kbk tags: inline
04:01
Another tranche of code toward support of inlining: pass the current interpreter result or exception into a 'catch' block explicitly, to enable separation of normal and error paths. Required refactoring of many quadcodes that threw errors, to preserve the error results. check-in: 992e4ebed1 user: kbk tags: trunk
03:55

23:56
checkArithDomain and throwArithDomainError are now dead. Kill off the code that processes them. check-in: a82f73f9a5 user: kbk tags: inline
23:43
Don't use checkArithDomain. Refactor into 'instanceOf' and 'initException'. check-in: e4c73e17de user: kbk tags: inline
22:54
Eliminate the vestiges of 'narrowToParamType' and 'narrowToNotParamType'. Refactor 'checkFunctionParam' into separate operations 'instanceOfParamType' and 'initParamTypeException' so that the FAIL object is made explicit. Add debug logic into several early passes of the 'middle end'. check-in: 34e0e3e461 user: kbk tags: inline

02:41
Kill off throwIfScalar and throwIsScalar in favour of generating equivalent code inline - allows for passing an object of type FAIL to the catch block. check-in: c54be579c4 user: kbk tags: inline
2018-02-15
04:33
Remove throw(If)?NotExists from the documentation, it's dead. check-in: 676ce12783 user: kbk tags: inline
04:25
Eliminate 'throwIfNotExists' and 'initIfNotExists' in favour of explicit inline existence check and initialization of an exception. Prepares for having all exceptions generate an explicit FAIL object. check-in: c79b0c5648 user: kbk tags: inline
03:31
Fix crashes in 'narrow' that were caused by unreachable code introduced in 'varargs'. Change 'setReturnCode' to produce a FAIL. check-in: a14ce4fdee user: kbk tags: inline
02:00
Bury 'returnException' - it's dead, dead, dead. check-in: ad9e594859 user: kbk tags: inline
01:49
Place the FAIL objects corresponding to all thrown exceptions in a known temporary, so that 'returnCode', 'result' and 'returnOptions' can find them. Add an 'extractFail' operation on the 'jumpMaybe' path so that we know the temporary is indeed just a FAIL and never represents a successful result. check-in: 97c90599f0 user: kbk tags: inline
