%%% Purpose : Optimise jumps and remove unreachable code.

-module(beam_jump).

-export([module/2,
	 is_unreachable_after/1,is_exit_instruction/1,
	 remove_unused_labels/1,is_label_used_in/2]).

%%% The following optimisations are done:
%%%
%%% (1) This code with two identical instruction sequences
%%% 
%%%     L1: <Instruction sequence>
%%%     L2:
%%%          . . .
%%%     L3: <Instruction sequence>
%%%     L4:
%%%
%%%     can be replaced with
%%% 
%%%     L1: jump L3
%%%     L2:
%%%          . . .
%%%     L3: <Instruction sequence>
%%%     L4
%%%     
%%%     Note: The instruction sequence must end with an instruction
%%%     such as a jump that never transfers control to the instruction
%%%     following it.
%%%
%%% (2) Short sequences starting with a label and ending in case_end, if_end,
%%%     and badmatch, and function calls that cause an exit (such as calls
%%%     to exit/1) are moved to the end of the function, but only if the
%%%     the block is not entered via a fallthrough. The purpose of this move
%%%     is to allow further optimizations at the place from which the
%%%     code was moved (a jump around the block could be replaced with a
%%%     fallthrough).
%%%
%%% (3) Any unreachable code is removed.  Unreachable code is code
%%%     after jump, call_last and other instructions which never
%%%     transfer control to the following instruction.  Code is
%%%     unreachable up to the next *referenced* label.  Note that the
%%%     optimisations below might generate more possibilities for
%%%     removing unreachable code.
%%%
%%% (4) This code:
%%%	L1:	jump L2
%%%          . . .
%%%     L2: ...
%%%
%%%    will be changed to
%%%
%%%    jump L2
%%%          . . .
%%%    L1:
%%%    L2: ...
%%%
%%%    If the jump is unreachable, it will be removed according to (1).
%%%
%%% (5) In
%%%
%%%	 jump L1
%%%      L1:
%%%
%%%	 the jump (but not the label) will be removed.
%%%
%%% (6) If test instructions are used to skip a single jump instruction,
%%%      the test is inverted and the jump is eliminated (provided that
%%%      the test can be inverted).  Example:
%%%
%%%      is_eq L1 {x,1} {x,2}
%%%      jump L2
%%%      L1:
%%%
%%%      will be changed to
%%%
%%%      is_ne L2 {x,1} {x,2}
%%%      L1:
%%%
%%%      Because there may be backward references to the label L1
%%%      (for instance from the wait_timeout/1 instruction), we will
%%%      always keep the label. (beam_clean will remove any unused
%%%      labels.)
%%%
%%% Note: This modules depends on (almost) all branches and jumps only
%%% going forward, so that we can remove instructions (including definition
%%% of labels) after any label that has not been referenced by the code
%%% preceeding the labels. Regarding the few instructions that have backward
%%% references to labels, we assume that they only transfer control back
%%% to an instruction that has already been executed. That is, code such as
%%%
%%%         jump L_entry
%%%
%%%      L_again:
%%%           .
%%%           .
%%%           .
%%%      L_entry:
%%%           .
%%%           .
%%%           .
%%%         jump L_again;
%%%           
%%% is NOT allowed (and such code is never generated by the code generator).
%%%
%%% Terminology note: The optimisation done here is called unreachable-code
%%% removal, NOT dead-code elimination.  Dead code elimination means the
%%% removal of instructions that are executed, but have no visible effect
%%% on the program state.
%%%
