There is never any empty blocks when beam_dead is invoked.
Even if there were, they will be removed a little bit later in
forward/4.
|
|
In the optimization of binary matching, it seems that two clauses
cannot never be reached. Removing the clauses is safe, since that
would only mean that an opportunity for an optimization is lost
|
|
Because the code generator (v3_codegen) would not include the
same value more than once in a select_val/3 instruction and
because a label can only be referenced by one select_val/3
instruction, there is no way that the correct value could already
be in the gb_tree. (Even if it could happen, this change is
safe because only opportunity for an optimization would be missed;
incorrect code would not be generated.)
|
|
Since the optimizations in forward/4 already depends on some
assumptions on how code is generated anyway, document the
assumptions in a comment and remove the uncoverable code.
|
|
Since the introduction of improved record optimizations in
1858cb81391d2bce29b4b7620574ca60128cebf7 and
470c91d43eae54f63661645acbce4b92d73287cc, the optimization of
a is_record/3 call with a known correct type in
beam_type:simplify_basic_1/3 has not been covered.

In 3d0f4a3085f11389e5b22d10f96f0cbf08c9337f (an update to conform
with common_test), in all test_lib:recompile(?MODULE) calls, ?MODULE
was changed to the actual name of the module. That would cause
test_lib:recompile/1 to compile the module with the incorrect
compiler options in cloned modules such as record_no_opt_SUITE,
causing worse coverage.

It is not needed because it can be trivially calculated using
gb_trees:size/1.

The compiler (sys_core_fold) tries to avoid constructing tuples
in case expressions. The following code:
c(A, B) ->
case {A,B} of
{ok,X} -> X;
{_,_} -> error
end.
will be rewritten so that no tuple is built. If a clause
requires a tuple to be built as in this code:
c(A, B) ->
case {A,B} of
{ok,X} -> X;
V -> V %The tuple will be built here
end.
the tuple will be built in the clause(s) in which it is needed.
If the value returned from the case is not used as in this code:
c(A, B) ->
case {A,B} of
V -> V %Warning: a term is constructed, but never used
end,
ok.
there will be an incorrect warning. Basically, what happens is
that the code is reduced to:
c(A, B) ->
{A,B}, %Warning: a term is constructed, but never used
ok.
and the optimizer sees that the {A,B} tuple can't possibly be used.
Eliminate the warning by adding a 'compiler_generated' annotation
to the tuple.

In the following code:
m(<<Sz:8,_:Sz/binary>>) ->
Sz = wrong.
the Sz variable is supposed to be bound in the function header and the
matching "Sz = wrong" should cause a badarg exception. But what
happens is that the Sz variables seems to be unbound and the matching
succeds and the m/1 function returns 'wrong'.
If the Sz variable is used directly (not matched), it will have
the expected value. Thus the following code:
m(<<Sz:8,_:Sz/binary>>) ->
Sz.
will correctly return the value of Sz that was matched out from
the binary.

This is useful when a project is built with Makefiles and erlc(1)
instead of EMakefiles. Tracking dependencies by hand is error-prone and
it becomes painful when using external application headers like EUnit's
one.
A dependencies Makefile will look like this:
module.beam: module.erl \
/usr/local/lib/erlang/lib/eunit-2.1.4/include/eunit.hrl \
header.hrl
When included in the main Makefile, 'module' will be recompiled only
when needed.
GCC offers the same feature and new erlc(1) options are compatible with
it.

The options for compiling from Core Erlang, BEAM assembler files,
and BEAM files are handled in several places, making it difficult
to change or add more similar options. Refactor the option handling
so that each option only need to be handled in one place.

By accident a previous instance of St is used, which is
harmless in this case, but leads to worse quality of
the generated code.

We want to ensure that the compiler applications is kept
free of warnings.

Similar to -spec and -type, -export_type should be not be included
as attributes (and therefore loaded) in BEAM files, but only in
the abstract code chunk.

* bjorn/fix-compiler-bugs/OTP-8949:
beam_utils: Fix check_liveness/3 for receive loops
beam_utils: Fix liveness analysis for gc_bif instructions
|
|
Sometimes the beam_bool pass wants to know whether an
y register will be killed by the code that follows and
will do (effectively):
beam_utils:is_killed({y,Y}, Code, L)
When asked to calculate the liveness for an y register,
beam_utils:is_killed/3 will loop forever if the code
includes a receive loop.
Since this rarely occurs, fix the problem in the simplest
and most conservative way.

* pan/auto-import-doc-fix/OTP-8848:
Correct description of no_auto_import compiler directive
|
|
When gc_bif instructions occurred outside of a block,
beam_utils:check_liveness/3 did not take into account
that the instruction could do a garbage collection, and
could falsely report that an x register would be killed.
That could cause the beam_dead pass to make the code
unsafe by removing the assignment to an x register that
would subsequently be referenced by the garbage collector.

"-f" is a non-standard chmod option which at least SGI IRIX and HP UX do
not support. As the only effect of the "-f" flag is to suppress warning
messages, it can be safely omitted.

Moving of allocation instructions upwards in the instruction
stream (in order to enable further optimizations) in beam_block,
is implemented with the assumption that if a register {x,X}
contains a valid term, then all other x register with lower
numbers than X also contain valid terms. That assumption is
true after code generation.
The beam_utils:live_opt/1 optimization, however, may invalidate
that assumption. For instance, if a receive statement exports a
variable that is used, but the return value of the receive statement
is not used, then {x,1} but not {x,0} contains a valid term at the
end of the receive statement. If the receive statement is
followed by
{bif,self,{f,0},[],{x,0}}.
{test_heap,NumberOfWords,2}.
moving the allocation upwards will produce
{test_heap,NumberOfWords,2}.
{bif,self,{f,0},[],{x,0}}.
which will cause the beam_validator pass to scream loudly that
{x,0} is not live at the test_heap instruction.
Fix the problem by doing the optimizations in reverse order.
