Merge return assumes that the only unreachable blocks are those needed
to keep the structured cfg valid. Even those must be essentially empty
blocks.
If this is not the case, we get unpredictable behaviour. This commit
add a check in merge return, and emits an error if it is not the case.
Added a pass of dead branch elimination before merge return in both the
performance and size passes. It is a precondition of merge return.
Fixes#1962.
CPPreference.com has this description of digits10:
“The value of std::numeric_limits<T>::digits10 is the number of
base-10 digits that can be represented by the type T without change,
that is, any number with this many significant decimal digits can be
converted to a value of type T and back to decimal form, without
change due to rounding or overflow.”
This means that any number with this many digits can be represented
accurately in the corresponding type. A change in any digit in a
number after that may or may not cause it a different bitwise
representation. Therefore this isn’t necessarily enough precision to
accurately represent the value in text. Instead we need max_digits10
which has the following description:
“The value of std::numeric_limits<T>::max_digits10 is the number of
base-10 digits that are necessary to uniquely represent all distinct
values of the type T, such as necessary for
serialization/deserialization to text.”
The patch includes a test case in hex_float_test which tries to do a
round-robin conversion of a number that requires more than 6 decimal
places to be accurately represented. This would fail without the
patch.
Sadly this also breaks a bunch of other tests. Some of the tests in
hex_float_test use ldexp and then compare it with a value which is not
the same as the one returned by ldexp but instead is the value rounded
to 6 decimals. Others use values that are not evenly representable as
a binary floating fraction but then happened to generate the same
value when rounded to 6 decimals. Where the actual value didn’t seem
to matter these have been changed with different values that can be
represented as a binary fraction.
Creates a pass that will remove instructions that are invalid for the
current shader stage. For the instruction to be considered for replacement
1) The opcode must be valid for a shader modules.
2) The opcode must be invalid for the current shader stage.
3) All entry points to the module must be for the same shader stage.
4) The function containing the instruction must be reachable from an entry point.
Fixes#1247.
