2018-02-14beam_block: Combine blocks when running beam_block the second timeBjörn Gustavsson
1a029efd1ad47f started to run the beam_block pass a second time, but it did not attempt to combine adjacent blocks. Combining adjacent blocks leads to many more opportunities for optimizations. After doing some diffing in generated code, it turns out that there is no benefit for beam_split to split out line instructions from blocks. It seems that the only reason it was done was to slightly simplify the implementation of the no_line_info option in beam_clean.

2016-10-05beam_block: Avoid unsafe inclusion of get_map_elements in blocksBjörn Gustavsson
c2035ebb8b restricted the get_map_elements instruction so that it could only occur at the beginning of a block. It turns out that including it anywhere in a block is unsafe. Therefore, never put get_map_elements instruction in blocks. (Also remove the beam_utils:join_even/2 function since it is no longer used.) ERL-266

2016-04-08Remove unreachable code after 'raise' instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
Remove the unreachable instructions after a 'raise' instruction (e.g. a 'jump' or 'deallocate', 'return') to decrease code size.

2015-08-21Put 'try' in blocks to optimize allocation instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
Put 'try' instructions inside block to improve the optimization of allocation instructions. Currently, the compiler only looks at initialization of y registers inside blocks when determining which y registers that will be "naturally" initialized.

2015-01-12compiler: Rename util function to adhere to name policyBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
* beam_utils:joineven/1 -> beam_utils:join_even/1 * beam_utils:split_even/1 -> beam_utils:split_even/1
2015-01-09compiler: Remove unnecassary guard for get_map_elementsBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
No need to check for fail label zero for get_map_elements in beam_split. get_map_elements is always used in pattern matching and never in a body.

2014-01-28compiler: Implement different instructions for => and :=Björn Gustavsson
2014-01-28Implement support for maps in the compilerBjörn Gustavsson
To make it possible to build the entire OTP system, also define dummys for the instructions in ops.tab.
2011-12-06Teach the compiler the 'no_dead' optionBjörn Gustavsson
To facilitate debugging of compiler bugs, teach the compiler the 'no_dead' option. Since the beam_dead pass used to do the necessary splitting of basic blocks to expose all labels, we must move that splitting into a separate pass that is always run.
