Library Constprop

Constant propagation over RTL. This is one of the optimizations performed at RTL level. It proceeds by a standard dataflow analysis and the corresponding code rewriting.

Static analysis


The type approx of compile-time approximations of values is defined in the machine-dependent part ConstpropOp.

We equip this type of approximations with a semi-lattice structure. The ordering is inclusion between the sets of values denoted by the approximations.

Module Approx <: SEMILATTICE_WITH_TOP.
  Definition t := approx.
  Definition eq (x y: t) := (x = y).

  Definition ge (x y: t) : Prop :=
    x = Unknown \/ y = Novalue \/ x = y.

  Lemma ge_top: forall x, ge top x.
  
  Definition lub (x y: t) : t :=
    if eq_dec x y then x else
    match x, y with
    | Novalue, _ => y
    | _, Novalue => x
    | _, _ => Unknown
    end.

  Lemma ge_lub_left: forall x y, ge (lub x y) x.
  
End Approx.

Module D := LPMap Approx.

The transfer function for the dataflow analysis is straightforward: for Iop instructions, we set the approximation of the destination register to the result of executing abstractly the operation; for Iload and Icall, we set the approximation of the destination to Unknown.

Definition approx_reg (app: D.t) (r: reg) :=
  D.get r app.

Definition approx_regs (app: D.t) (rl: list reg):=
  List.map (approx_reg app) rl.

Definition transfer (f: function) (pc: node) (before: D.t) :=
  match f.(fn_code)!pc with
  | None => before
  | Some i =>
      match i with
      | Iop op args res s =>
          let a := eval_static_operation op (approx_regs before args) in
          D.set res a before
      | Iload chunk addr args dst s =>
          D.set dst Unknown before
      | Icall sig ros args res s =>
          D.set res Unknown before
      | _ =>
          before
      end
  end.

The static analysis itself is then an instantiation of Kildall's generic solver for forward dataflow inequations. analyze f returns a mapping from program points to mappings of pseudo-registers to approximations. It can fail to reach a fixpoint in a reasonable number of iterations, in which case None is returned.

Module DS := Dataflow_Solver(D)(NodeSetForward).

Definition analyze (f: RTL.function): PMap.t D.t :=
  match DS.fixpoint (successors f) (transfer f)
                    ((f.(fn_entrypoint), D.top) :: nil) with
  | None => PMap.init D.top
  | Some res => res
  end.

Code transformation


The code transformation proceeds instruction by instruction. Operators whose arguments are all statically known are turned into ``load integer constant'', ``load float constant'' or ``load symbol address'' operations. Operators for which some but not all arguments are known are subject to strength reduction, and similarly for the addressing modes of load and store instructions. Other instructions are unchanged.

Definition transf_ros (app: D.t) (ros: reg + ident) : reg + ident :=
  match ros with
  | inl r =>
      match D.get r app with
      | S symb ofs => if Int.eq ofs Int.zero then inr _ symb else ros
      | _ => ros
      end
  | inr s => ros
  end.
