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.
In dead branch elimination, we already recognize unreachable continue
blocks, and update OpPhi instruction accordingly. This change adds an
extra check: if the head block has exactly 1 other incoming edge, then
replace the OpPhi with the value from that edge.
Fixes#1314.
* When handling unreachable merges and continues, do not optimize to the
same IR
* pass did not check whether the unreachable blocks were in the
optimized form before transforming them
* added a test to catch this issue
* If the dead branch elim is performed on a module without structured
control flow, the OpSelectionMerge may not be present
* Add a check for pointer validity before dereferencing
* Added a test to catch the bug
Pass now paints live blocks and fixes constant branches and switches as
it goes. No longer requires structured control flow. It also removes
unreachable blocks as a side effect. It fixes the IR (phis) before doing
any code removal (other than terminator changes).
Added several unit tests for updated/new functionality.
Does not remove dead edge from a phi node:
* Checks that incoming edges are live in order to retain them
* Added BasicBlock::IsSuccessor
* added test
Fixing phi updates in the presence of extra backedge blocks
* Added tests to catch bug
Reworked how phis are updated
* Instead of creating a new Phi and RAUW'ing the old phi with it, I now
replace the phi operands, but maintain the def/use manager correctly.
For unreachable merge:
* When considering unreachable continue blocks the code now properly
checks whether the incoming edge will continue to be live.
Major refactoring for review
* Broke into 4 major functions
* marking live blocks
* marking structured targets
* fixing phis
* deleting blocks
Re-formatted the source tree with the command:
$ /usr/bin/clang-format -style=file -i \
$(find include source tools test utils -name '*.cpp' -or -name '*.h')
This required a fix to source/val/decoration.h. It was not including
spirv.h, which broke builds when the #include headers were re-ordered by
clang-format.
Expands dead branch elimination to eliminate dead switch cases. It also
changes dbe to eliminate orphaned merge blocks and recursively eliminate
any blocks thereby orphaned.
- DeadBranchElim: Make sure to mark orphan'd merge blocks and continue
targets as live.
- Add test with loop in dead branch
- Add test that orphan'd merge block is handled.
