From fbcff5a137e37edd80aca9c5fe18ce6880648169 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Bj=C3=B6rn=20Gustavsson?= Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2018 10:09:59 +0100 Subject: Eliminate get_list/3 internally in the compiler Instructions that produce more than one result complicate optimizations. get_list/3 is one of two instructions that produce multiple results (get_map_elements/3 is the other). Introduce the get_hd/2 and get_tl/2 instructions that return the head and tail of a cons cell, respectively, and use it internally in all optimization passes. For efficiency, we still want to use get_list/3 if both head and tail are used, so we will translate matching pairs of get_hd and get_tl back to get_list instructions. --- lib/compiler/test/compile_SUITE_data/big.erl | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) (limited to 'lib/compiler/test/compile_SUITE_data') diff --git a/lib/compiler/test/compile_SUITE_data/big.erl b/lib/compiler/test/compile_SUITE_data/big.erl index 2e54ee8660..1db07755a1 100644 --- a/lib/compiler/test/compile_SUITE_data/big.erl +++ b/lib/compiler/test/compile_SUITE_data/big.erl @@ -741,3 +741,7 @@ snmp_access(suite) -> debug_support(suite) -> [ info, schema, schema, kill, lkill ]. +%% Cover translation of get_hd/2 to get_list/3 when option no_get_hd_tl +%% is given. +cover_get_hd([Hd|_]) -> + Hd. -- cgit v1.2.3
