See LICENSE.TXT for details. 7 // 8 //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// 9 // 10 // This file transforms calls of the current function (self recursion) followed 11 // by a return instruction with a branch to the entry of the function, creating 12 // a loop. This pass also implements the following extensions to the basic 13 // algorithm: 14 // 15 // 1. Trivial instructions between the call and return do not prevent the 16 // transformation from taking place, though currently the analysis cannot 17 // support moving any really useful instructions (only dead ones). 18 // 2. This pass transforms functions that are prevented from being tail 19 // recursive by an associative and commutative expression to use an 20 // accumulator variable, thus compiling the typical naive factorial or 21 // 'fib' implementation into efficient code. 22 // 3. TRE is performed if the function returns void, if the return 23 // returns the result returned by the call, or if the function returns a 24 // run-time constant on all exits from the function. It is possible, though 25 // unlikely, that the return returns something else (like constant 0), and 26 // can still be TRE'd. It can be TRE'd if ALL OTHER return instructions in 27 // the function return the exact same value. 28 // 4. If it can prove that callees do not access their caller stack frame, 29 // they are marked as eligible for tail call elimination (by the code 30 // generator). 31 // 32 // There are several improvements that could be made: 33 // 34 // 1. If the function has any alloca instructions, these instructions will be 35 // moved out of the entry block of the function, causing them to be 36 // evaluated each time through the tail recursion. Safely keeping allocas 37 // in the entry block requires analysis to proves that the tail-called 38 // function does not read or write the stack object. 39 // 2. Tail recursion is only performed if the call immediately precedes the 40 // return instruction. It's possible that there could be a jump between 41 // the call and the return. 42 // 3. There can be intervening operations between the call and the return that 43 // prevent the TRE from occurring. For example, there could be GEP's and 44 // stores to memory that will not be read or written by the call. This 45 // requires some substantial analysis (such as with DSA) to prove safe to 46 // move ahead of the call, but doing so could allow many more TREs to be 47 // performed, for example in TreeAdd/TreeAlloc from the treeadd benchmark. 48 // 4. The algorithm we use to detect if callees access their caller stack 49 // frames is very primitive. 50 // 51 //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// 52 53 #include "llvm/Transforms/Scalar/TailRecursionElimination.h" 54 #include "llvm/ADT/STLExtras.h" 55 #include "llvm/ADT/SmallPtrSet.h" 56 #include "llvm/ADT/Statistic.h" 57 #include "llvm/Analysis/CFG.h" 58 #include "llvm/Analysis/CaptureTracking.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/OptimizationDiagnosticInfo.h" 64 #include "llvm/Analysis/TargetTransformInfo.h" 65 #include "llvm/IR/CFG.h" 66 #include "llvm/IR/CallSite.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/Function.h" 72 #include "llvm/IR/InstIterator.h" 73 #include "llvm/IR/Instructions.h" 74 #include "llvm/IR/IntrinsicInst.h" 75 #include "llvm/IR/Module.h" 76 #include "llvm/IR/ValueHandle.h" 77 #include "llvm/Pass.h" 78 #include "llvm/Support/Debug.h" 79 #include "llvm/Support/raw_ostream.h" 80 #include "llvm/Transforms/Scalar.h" 81 #include "llvm/Transforms/Utils/BasicBlockUtils.h" 82 #include "llvm/Transforms/Utils/Local.h" 83 using namespace llvm; 84 85 #define DEBUG_TYPE "tailcallelim" 86 87 STATISTIC(NumEliminated, "Number of tail calls removed"); 88 STATISTIC(NumRetDuped, "Number of return duplicated"); 89 STATISTIC(NumAccumAdded, "Number of accumulators introduced"); 90 91 /// \brief Scan the specified function for alloca instructions. 92 /// If it contains any dynamic allocas, returns false. 93 static bool canTRE(Function &F) { 94 // Because of PR962, we don't TRE dynamic allocas. 95 return llvm::all_of(instructions(F), [](Instruction &I) { 96 auto *AI = dyn_cast<AllocaInst>(&I); 97 return !AI || AI->isStaticAlloca(); 98 }); 99 } 100 101 namespace { 102 struct AllocaDerivedValueTracker { 103 // Start at a root value and walk its use-def chain to mark calls that use the 104 // value or a derived value in AllocaUsers, and places where it may escape in 105 // EscapePoints. 106 void walk(Value *Root) { 107 SmallVector<Use *, 32> Worklist; 108 SmallPtrSet<Use *, 32> Visited; 109 110 auto AddUsesToWorklist = [&](Value *V) { 111 for (auto &U : V->uses()) { 112 if (!Visited.insert(&U).second) 113 continue; 114 Worklist.push_back(&U); 115 } 116 }; 117 118 AddUsesToWorklist(Root); 119 120 while (!Worklist.empty()) { 121 Use *U = Worklist.pop_back_val(); 122 Instruction *I = cast<Instruction>(U->getUser()); 123 124 switch (I->getOpcode()) { 125 case Instruction::Call: 126 case Instruction::Invoke: { 127 CallSite CS(I); 128 bool IsNocapture = 129 CS.isDataOperand(U) && CS.doesNotCapture(CS.getDataOperandNo(U)); 130 callUsesLocalStack(CS, IsNocapture); 131 if (IsNocapture) { 132 // If the alloca-derived argument is passed in as nocapture, then it 133 // can't propagate to the call's return.
