Minor cleanups and bug fixes of the compiler
2018-09-28Fix code generation of binary instructions with the r21 optionBjörn Gustavsson
OTP 22 extends the binary instructions to support a Y register destination. When giving an option to compile for an earlier release, make sure that binary instructions don't use a Y register destination, by rewriting the binary instructions to use an X register destination and adding a `move` instruction to move the value to the Y register.

Rewrite BSM optimizations in the new SSA-based intermediate format
2018-09-28Remove unused instruction bs_context_to_binary from the compilerJohn Högberg
This has been superseded by bs_get_tail/3. Note that it is NOT removed from the emulator or beam_disasm, as old modules are still legal.
2018-09-28beam_ssa_pre_codegen: Remove unused variable aliasing supportBjörn Gustavsson
Remove the variable aliasing support that was needed for the old beam_bsm pass.

2018-09-28beam_ssa_opt: Eliminate redundant match alignment testsJohn Högberg
The beam_ssa_bsm pass welds chained matches together, but the match expressions themselves are unchanged and if there's a tail alignment check it will be done each time. This subpass figures out the checks we've already done and deletes the redundant ones.
2018-09-28Rewrite BSM optimizations in the new SSA-based intermediate formatJohn Högberg
This commit improves the bit-syntax match optimization pass, leveraging the new SSA intermediate format to perform much more aggressive optimizations. Some highlights: * Watch contexts can be reused even after being passed to a function or being used in a try block. * Sub-binaries are no longer eagerly extracted, making it far easier to keep "happy paths" free from binary creation. * Trivial wrapper functions no longer disable context reuse.
2018-09-28Fix rare bug in binary matching (again)Björn Gustavsson
2e40d8d1c51a attempted fix a bug in binary matching, but it only fixed the bug for the minimized test case. This commit removes the previous fix and fixes the bug in a more effective way. See the comments in the new code in `sys_core_bsm` for an explanation. This commit restores the optimizations in string.erl and dets_v9.erl that the previous fix disabled. I have not found any code where this commit will disable optimizations when they are actually safe. There are some changes to the code in ssl_cipher.erl in that some bs_start_match2 instruction did not reuse the binary register for the match context, but the delayed sub binary optimizations was never applied to the code in the first place. https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-689
2018-09-26Move peephole optimization from beam_block to beam_aBjörn Gustavsson
Moving away this optimization makes beam_block do one thing and one thing only -- creating blocks.
2018-09-26Move bif_to_test/3 from beam_utils to beam_ssa_codegenBjörn Gustavsson
The only caller of bif_to_test/3 is beam_ssa_codegen.
2018-09-26beam_validator: Disallow literal arguments for certain instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
Disallow a literal map source for get_map_elements. There is currently runtime support for get_map with a literal map source, but by forbidding it in OTP 22, the runtime support could be removed in a future release (perhaps OTP 24). Also verify that the source arguments for get_list, get_hd, get_tl, and get_tuple_element are not literals. Literals are not supported for those instructions in the runtime system; verifying it in beam_validator is a convenience so that this kind of bug will be detected already during compilation.
2018-09-26beam_ssa_pre_codegen: Fix bug in sanitization of get_map_elementBjörn Gustavsson
The source map for `get_map_element` is not supposed to be a literal, and the sanitization code is supposed to ensure that. The sanitization incorrectly translated this code: Map = get_tuple_element literal {ok,#{key=>value}}, literal 1 Var = get_map_element Map, literal {a,key} To this code: Var = get_map_element literal #{key=>value}, literal {a,key} Make sure to substitute the arguments for `get_map_element` before looking for a literal source map.

2018-09-26beam_clean: Use maps and cerl_sets instead of dict and setsBjörn Gustavsson
Using maps and cerl_sets instead of dict and sets will slightly speed up the beam_clean pass for modules with many functions and/or calls to local functions.
2018-09-26Remove the last optimization from beam_flattenBjörn Gustavsson
It is not necessary to combine get_hd and get_tl instruction to a get_list instruction. It will be done in beam_z. After this change, beam_flatten does nothing more than eliminating the blocks.
2018-09-26Move allocation combining from beam_flatten to beam_ssa_codegenBjörn Gustavsson
Continuing the simplification of beam_flatten, move the optimization that eliminates a test_heap instruction following a binary construction by incorporating the allocation of the heap space into the bs_init* instruction itself. This change does not change the generated code in any way. Also remove beam_utils:combine_heap_needs/2, because beam_flatten was the last user of it.
2018-09-26Move optimization of 'move' from beam_flatten to beam_ssa_codegenBjörn Gustavsson
The purpose of beam_flatten is to eliminate the blocks created by beam_block, but it also does a few optimizations because at the time the optimizations were added, beam_flatten was the most convenient place. Move the optimization that places `{move,Something,{x,0}}` before `call` instructions from beam_flatten to beam_ssa_codegen. This change will very slightly improve compilation times, and it will also apply the optimization in more places. In particular, a `{move,Literal,{x,0}}` would never be moved passed a `trim` instruction before this change. Now it will.

2018-09-20Consistently use #b_var{} instead of var_name()John Högberg
We chose to refer to variables through their var_name() because we anticipated the need to annotate them, but it turned out we didn't really need that, and many things become a lot cleaner if the entire #b_var{} is used to represent variables.

2018-09-17Remove the beam_dead and beam_split passesBjörn Gustavsson
Most of the optimizations in beam_dead have been superseded by the optimizations in beam_ssa_dead. The forward/1 pass of beam_dead has been moved to beam_jump. The beam_split pass splits blocks that contain instructions with non-zero labels. Because there are no optimizations left that optimize instructions within blocks, beam_block never needs to put such instructions into blocks in the first place. beam_split also moved 'move' instructions out block to help beam_dead. That is no longer necessary since beam_dead no longer exists.
2018-09-17Add beam_ssa_dead.erlBjörn Gustavsson
Add beam_ssa_dead to perform the main optimizations done by beam_dead: * Shortcut branches that jump to another block with a branch. If it can be seen that the second branch will always branch to a specific block, replace the target of the first branch. * Combined nested sequences of '=:=' tests and switch instructions operating on the same variable to a single switch. Diffing the compiler output, it seems that beam_ssa_dead finds many more opportunities for optimizations than beam_dead, although it does not find all opportunities that beam_dead does. In total, beam_ssa_dead is such improvement over beam_dead that there is no reason to keep beam_dead as well as beam_ssa_dead. Note that beam_ssa_dead does not attempt to optimize away redundant bs_context_binary instructions, because that instruction will be superseded by new instructions in the near future.
2018-09-17beam_ssa_codegen: Don't emit kill instructions before exit BIFsBjörn Gustavsson
Omitting `kill` instructions before BIFs that throw exceptions will reduce the code size. This optimization supersedes the same optimizations in beam_dead.

2018-09-17beam_ssa_type: Substitute variables that evaluate to a constantBjörn Gustavsson
In beam_ssa_type, do substitutions similar to what ssa_opt_misc does to get rid of variables that evaluate to constant values. That somewhat simplifies the code of beam_ssa_type, and could improve performance of the compiler since instructions and variables are eliminated, reducing the amount of work for later passes.

2018-09-17beam_ssa_type: Remove clause in arith_op_types/2 that can't matchBjörn Gustavsson
Remove the following clause from the `fun` clauses in arith_op_types/2 because it cannot possibly match: (_, any) -> number; Here is why it cannot match: The second argument is the accumulator for lists:foldl/3. Its initial value is `unknown`. None of the clauses will update the accumulator to `any`, including the clause that matches `any` in the first argument -- it will set the accumulator to `number`. Thus, the accumulator (second argument) can never be `any` and the clause can never match. QED.
2018-09-17beam_ssa_opt: Robustify float optimizationsBjörn Gustavsson
The floating point optimization relies on heavily on the block order in the lineararized representation. A new optimization could easily break the optimization, for example so that no `fcheckerror` instructions were emitted. Rewrite the optimization to avoid dependencies on the linear block order.
