This pass also implements the following extensions to the basic 12 // algorithm: 13 // 14 // 1. Trivial instructions between the call and return do not prevent the 15 // transformation from taking place, though currently the analysis cannot 16 // support moving any really useful instructions (only dead ones). 17 // 2. This pass transforms functions that are prevented from being tail 18 // recursive by an associative and commutative expression to use an 19 // accumulator variable, thus compiling the typical naive factorial or 20 // 'fib' implementation into efficient code. 21 // 3. TRE is performed if the function returns void, if the return 22 // returns the result returned by the call, or if the function returns a 23 // run-time constant on all exits from the function. It is possible, though 24 // unlikely, that the return returns something else (like constant 0), and 25 // can still be TRE'd. It can be TRE'd if ALL OTHER return instructions in 26 // the function return the exact same value. 27 // 4. If it can prove that callees do not access their caller stack frame, 28 // they are marked as eligible for tail call elimination (by the code 29 // generator). 30 // 31 // There are several improvements that could be made: 32 // 33 // 1. If the function has any alloca instructions, these instructions will be 34 // moved out of the entry block of the function, causing them to be 35 // evaluated each time through the tail recursion. Safely keeping allocas 36 // in the entry block requires analysis to proves that the tail-called 37 // function does not read or write the stack object. 38 // 2. Tail recursion is only performed if the call immediately precedes the 39 // return instruction. It's possible that there could be a jump between 40 // the call and the return. 41 // 3. There can be intervening operations between the call and the return that 42 // prevent the TRE from occurring. For example, there could be GEP's and 43 // stores to memory that will not be read or written by the call. This 44 // requires some substantial analysis (such as with DSA) to prove safe to 45 // move ahead of the call, but doing so could allow many more TREs to be 46 // performed, for example in TreeAdd/TreeAlloc from the treeadd benchmark. 47 // 4. The algorithm we use to detect if callees access their caller stack 48 // frames is very primitive. 49 // 50 //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// 51 52 #include "llvm/Transforms/Scalar/TailRecursionElimination.h" 53 #include "llvm/ADT/STLExtras.h" 54 #include "llvm/ADT/SmallPtrSet.h" 55 #include "llvm/ADT/Statistic.h" 56 #include "llvm/Analysis/CFG.h" 57 #include "llvm/Analysis/CaptureTracking.h" 58 #include "llvm/Analysis/DomTreeUpdater.h" 59 #include "llvm/Analysis/GlobalsModRef.h" 60 #include "llvm/Analysis/InlineCost.h" 61 #include "llvm/Analysis/InstructionSimplify.h" 62 #include "llvm/Analysis/Loads.h" 63 #include "llvm/Analysis/OptimizationRemarkEmitter.h" 64 #include "llvm/Analysis/PostDominators.h" 65 #include "llvm/Analysis/TargetTransformInfo.h" 66 #include "llvm/IR/CFG.h" 67 #include "llvm/IR/Constants.h" 68 #include "llvm/IR/DataLayout.h" 69 #include "llvm/IR/DerivedTypes.h" 70 #include "llvm/IR/DiagnosticInfo.h" 71 #include "llvm/IR/Dominators.h" 72 #include "llvm/IR/Function.h" 73 #include "llvm/IR/InstIterator.h" 74 #include "llvm/IR/Instructions.h" 75 #include "llvm/IR/IntrinsicInst.h" 76 #include "llvm/IR/Module.h" 77 #include "llvm/IR/ValueHandle.h" 78 #include "llvm/InitializePasses.h" 79 #include "llvm/Pass.h" 80 #include "llvm/Support/Debug.h" 81 #include "llvm/Support/raw_ostream.h" 82 #include "llvm/Transforms/Scalar.h" 83 #include "llvm/Transforms/Utils/BasicBlockUtils.h" 84 using namespace llvm; 85 86 #define DEBUG_TYPE "tailcallelim" 87 88 STATISTIC(NumEliminated, "Number of tail calls removed"); 89 STATISTIC(NumRetDuped, "Number of return duplicated"); 90 STATISTIC(NumAccumAdded, "Number of accumulators introduced"); 91 92 /// Scan the specified function for alloca instructions. 93 /// If it contains any dynamic allocas, returns false. 94 static bool canTRE(Function &F) { 95 // Because of PR962, we don't TRE dynamic allocas. 96 return llvm::all_of(instructions(F), [](Instruction &I) { 97 auto *AI = dyn_cast<AllocaInst>(&I); 98 return !AI || AI->isStaticAlloca(); 99 }); 100 } 101 102 namespace { 103 struct AllocaDerivedValueTracker { 104 // Start at a root value and walk its use-def chain to mark calls that use the 105 // value or a derived value in AllocaUsers, and places where it may escape in 106 // EscapePoints. 107 void walk(Value *Root) { 108 SmallVector<Use *, 32> Worklist; 109 SmallPtrSet<Use *, 32> Visited; 110 111 auto AddUsesToWorklist = [&](Value *V) { 112 for (auto &U : V->uses()) { 113 if (!Visited.insert(&U).second) 114 continue; 115 Worklist.push_back(&U); 116 } 117 }; 118 119 AddUsesToWorklist(Root); 120 121 while (!Worklist.empty()) { 122 Use *U = Worklist.pop_back_val(); 123 Instruction *I = cast<Instruction>(U->getUser()); 124 125 switch (I->getOpcode()) { 126 case Instruction::Call: 127 case Instruction::Invoke: { 128 auto &CB = cast<CallBase>(*I); 129 // If the alloca-derived argument is passed byval it is not an escape 130 // point, or a use of an alloca.
