The outliner would outline regions ending with a loop header, making
the block containing the call to the outlined function serve as the
loop header. This, however, is incorrect in general, since the whole
outlined function -- rather than just the exit block for the region --
would end up getting called every time the loop would iterate.
This change restricts the outliner so that the last block in a region
cannot be a loop header.
Adds an extra condition on when a region can be outlined to avoid the
case where a region ends with a loop head but such that the loop's
continue target is in the region. (Outlining such a region would mean
that the loop merge is in the original function and the continue target
in the outlined function.)
The function outliner uses a struct to return ids that a region
generates and that are used outside that region. If these ids have
pointer type this would result in a struct with pointer members, which
leads to illegal loading from non-logical pointers if logical
addressing is used. This change bans that outlining possibility.
Some transformations (e.g. TransformationAddFunction) rely on running
the validator to decide whether the transformation is applicable. A
recent change allowed spirv-fuzz to take validator options, to cater
for the case where a module should be considered valid under
particular conditions. However, validation during the checking of
transformations had no access to these validator options.
This change introduced TransformationContext, which currently consists
of a fact manager and a set of validator options, but could in the
future have other fields corresponding to other objects that it is
useful to have access to when applying transformations. Now, instead
of checking and applying transformations in the context of a
FactManager, a TransformationContext is used. This gives access to
the fact manager as before, and also access to the validator options
when they are needed.
This change adds fuzzer passes that sprinkle loads and stores into a
module at random, with stores restricted to occur in either dead
blocks, or to use pointers for which it is known that the pointee
value does not influence the module's overall behaviour.
The change also generalises the VariableValueIsArbitrary fact to
PointeeValueIsIrrelevant, to allow stores through access chains or
object copies of variables whose values are known to be irrelevant.
The change includes some other minor refactorings.
This change adds a new kind of fact to the fact manager, which records
when a variable (or pointer parameter) refers to an arbitrary value,
so that anything can be stored to it, without affecting the observable
behaviour of the module, and nothing can be guaranteed about values
loaded from it. Donated modules are the current source of such
variables, and other transformations, such as outlining, have been
adapted to propagate these facts appropriately.
This change allows the generator to (optionally and at random) make
the functions of a module "livesafe" during donation. This involves
introducing a loop limiter variable to each function and gating the
number of total loop iterations for the function using that variable.
It also involves eliminating OpKill and OpUnreachable instructions
(changing them to OpReturn/OpReturnValue), and clamping access chain
indices so that they are always in-bounds.
This change refactors some code for walking access chain indexes to
make it mirror the structure of other code (to improve readability in
the first instance and potentially enable a future refactoring to
extract common code), and fixes a problem related to module donation
and function types.
This adds a new kind of fact to the fact manager that knows whether a
block is dead - i.e. guaranteed to be statically unreachable - and a
new transformation for adding a selection construct to a CFG that
conditionally branches to a fresh, dead block, such that the branch
will never be dynamically taken. Transformations that may create new
blocks ('split block' and 'outline function') are updated to propagate
dead block facts to newly-created blocks where appropriate. A fuzzer
pass randomly adds dead blocks to the module.
Future transformations will be able to exploit the fact that such
blocks are known to be dead.
This change prevents the spirv-fuzz function outliner from outlining a
region that uses the result of an OpAccessChain not defined inside the
region. Such accesses were turning into parameters to the outlined
function, and the result of an OpAccessChain cannot be passed as a
function parameter according to the SPIR-V specification.
A new transformation and associated fuzzer pass in spirv-fuzz that
selects single-entry single-exit control flow graph regions and for
each selected region outlines the region into a new function and
replaces the original region with a call to this function.
