We are seeing shaders that have multiple returns in a functions. These
functions must get inlined for legalization purposes; however, the
inliner does not know how to inline functions that have multiple
returns.
The solution we will go with it to improve the merge return pass to
handle structured control flow.
Note that the merge return pass will assume the cfg has been cleanedup
by dead branch elimination.
Fixes#857.
Strips reflection info. This is limited to decorations and
decoration instructions related to the SPV_GOOGLE_hlsl_functionality1
extension.
It will remove the OpExtension for SPV_GOOGLE_hlsl_functionality1.
It will also remove the OpExtension for SPV_GOOGLE_decorate_string
if there are no further remaining uses of OpDecorateStringGOOGLE.
Fixes https://github.com/KhronosGroup/SPIRV-Tools/issues/1398
The default target is SPIR-V 1.3.
For example, spirv-as will generate a SPIR-V 1.3 binary by default.
Use command line option "--target-env spv1.0" if you want to make a SPIR-V
1.0 binary or validate against SPIR-V 1.0 rules.
Example:
# Generate a SPIR-V 1.0 binary instead of SPIR-V 1.3
spirv-as --target-env spv1.0 a.spvasm -o a.spv
spirv-as --target-env vulkan1.0 a.spvasm -o a.spv
# Validate as SPIR-V 1.0.
spirv-val --target-env spv1.0 a.spv
# Validate as Vulkan 1.0
spirv-val --target-env vulkan1.0 a.spv
It moves all conditional branching and switch whose conditions are loop
invariant and uniform. Before performing the loop unswitch we check that
the loop does not contain any instruction that would prevent it
(barriers, group instructions etc.).
This patch adds initial support for loop unrolling in the form of a
series of utility classes which perform the unrolling. The pass can
be run with the command spirv-opt --loop-unroll. This will unroll
loops within the module which have the unroll hint set. The unroller
imposes a number of requirements on the loops it can unroll. These are
documented in the comments for the LoopUtils::CanPerformUnroll method in
loop_utils.h. Some of the restrictions will be lifted in future patches.
Implementation of the simplification pass.
- Create pass that calls the instruction folder on each instruction and
propagate instructions that fold to a copy. This will do copy
propagation as well.
- Did not use the propagator engine because I want to modify the instruction
as we go along.
- Change folding to not allocate new instructions, but make changes in
place. This change had a big impact on compile time.
- Add simplification pass to the legalization passes in place of
insert-extract elimination.
- Added test cases for new folding rules.
- Added tests for the simplification pass
- Added a method to the CFG to apply a function to the basic blocks in
reverse post order.
Contributes to #1164.
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.
* Handles simple cases only
* Identifies phis in blocks with two predecessors and attempts to
convert the phi to an select
* does not perform code motion currently so the converted values must
dominate the join point (e.g. can't be defined in the branches)
* limited for now to two predecessors, but can be extended to handle
more cases
* Adding if conversion to -O and -Os
We have come across a driver bug where and OpUnreachable inside a loop
is causing the shader to go into an infinite loop. This commit will try
to avoid this bug by turning OpUnreachable instructions that are
contained in a loop into branches to the loop merge block.
This is not added to "-O" and "-Os" because it should only be used if
the driver being targeted has this problem.
Fixes#1209.
Adds optimizer API to write disassembly to a given output stream
before each pass, and after the last pass.
Adds spirv-opt --print-all option to write disassembly to stderr
before each pass, and after the last pass.
This implements the conditional constant propagation pass proposed in
Constant propagation with conditional branches,
Wegman and Zadeck, ACM TOPLAS 13(2):181-210.
The main logic resides in CCPPass::VisitInstruction. Instruction that
may produce a constant value are evaluated with the constant folder. If
they produce a new constant, the instruction is considered interesting.
Otherwise, it's considered varying (for unfoldable instructions) or
just not interesting (when not enough operands have a constant value).
The other main piece of logic is in CCPPass::VisitBranch. This
evaluates the selector of the branch. When it's found to be a known
value, it computes the destination basic block and sets it. This tells
the propagator which branches to follow.
The patch required extensions to the constant manager as well. Instead
of hashing the Constant pointers, this patch changes the constant pool
to hash the contents of the Constant. This allows the lookups to be
done using the actual values of the Constant, preventing duplicate
definitions.
* changed the way duplicate types are removed to stop copying
instructions
* Reworked RemoveDuplicatesPass::AreTypesSame to use type manager and
type equality
* Reworked TypeManager memory management to store a pool of unique
pointers of types
* removed unique pointers from id map
* fixed instances where free'd memory could be accessed
Changes the set of optimizations done for legalization. While doing
this, I added documentation to explain why we want each optimization.
A new option "--legalize-hlsl" is added so the legalization passes can
be easily run from the command line.
The legalize option implies skip-validation.
When a private variable is used in a single function, it can be
converted to a function scope variable in that function. This adds a
pass that does that. The pass can be enabled using the option
`--private-to-local`.
This transformation allows other transformations to act on these
variables.
Also moved `FindPointerToType` from the inline class to the type manager.
Adds a scalar replacement pass. The pass considers all function scope
variables of composite type. If there are accesses to individual
elements (and it is legal) the pass replaces the variable with a
variable for each composite element and updates all the uses.
Added the pass to -O
Added NumUses and NumUsers to DefUseManager
Added some helper methods for the inst to block mapping in context
Added some helper methods for specific constant types
No longer generate duplicate pointer types.
* Now searches for an existing pointer of the appropriate type instead
of failing validation
* Fixed spec constant extracts
* Addressed changes for review
* Changed RunSinglePassAndMatch to be able to run validation
* current users do not enable it
Added handling of acceptable decorations.
* Decorations are also transfered where appropriate
Refactored extension checking into FeatureManager
* Context now owns a feature manager
* consciously NOT an analysis
* added some test
* fixed some minor issues related to decorates
* added some decorate related tests for scalar replacement
The option --skip-validation is added. When used it will skip the
validation step.
Also rearranged the help text to fix two options that are out of order.
Adds a pass that looks for redundant instruction in a function, and
removes them. The algorithm is a hash table based value numbering
algorithm that traverses the dominator tree.
This pass removes completely redundant instructions, not partially
redundant ones.
Creates a pass that removes redundant instructions within the same basic
block. This will be implemented using a hash based value numbering
algorithm.
Added a number of functions that check for the Vulkan descriptor types.
These are used to determine if we are variables are read-only or not.
Implemented a function to check if loads and variables are read-only.
Implemented kernel specific and shader specific versions.
A big change is that the Combinator analysis in ADCE is factored out
into the IRContext as an analysis. This was done because it is being
reused in the value number table.
Works with current DefUseManager infrastructure.
Added merge return to the standard opts.
Added validation to passes.
Disabled pass for shader capabilty.
There are a number of users of spriv-opt that are hitting errors
because of stores with different types. In general, this is wrong, but,
in these cases, the types are the exact same except for decorations.
The options is "--relax-store-struct", and it can be used with the
validator or the optimizer.
We assume that if layout information is missing it is consistent. For
example if one struct has a offset of one of its members, and the other
one does not, we will still consider them as being layout compatible.
The problem will be if both struct has and offset decoration for
corresponding members, and the offset are different.
There does not seem to be any pass that remove global variables. I
think we could use one. This pass will look specifically for global
variables that are not referenced and are not exported. Any decoration
associated with the variable will also be removed. However, this could
cause types or constants to become unreferenced. They will not be
removed. Another pass will have to be called to remove those.
- Adds a new pass CFGCleanupPass. This serves as an umbrella pass to
remove unnecessary cruft from a CFG.
- Currently, the only cleanup operation done is the removal of
unreachable basic blocks.
- Adds unit tests.
- Adds a flag to spirvopt to execute the pass (--cfg-cleanup).
These flags are expanded to a series of spirv-opt flags with the
following semantics:
-O: expands to passes that attempt to improve the performance of the
generated code.
-Os: expands to passes that attempt to reduce the size of the generated
code.
-Oconfig=<file> expands to the sequence of passes determined by the
flags specified in the user-provided file.
Creates a pass called eliminate dead functions that looks for functions
that could never be called, and deletes them from the module.
To support this change a new function was added to the Pass class to
traverse the call trees from diffent starting points.
Includes a test to ensure that annotations are removed when deleting a
dead function. They were not, so fixed that up as well.
Did some cleanup of the assembly for the test in pass_test.cpp. Trying
to make them smaller and easier to read.
Create a new optimization pass, strength reduction, which will replace
integer multiplication by a constant power of 2 with an equivalent bit
shift. More changes could be added later.
- Does not duplicate constants
- Adds vector |Concat| utility function to a common test header.
Only inline calls to functions with opaque params or return
TODO: Handle parameter type or return type where the opqaue
type is buried within an array.
- UniformElim: Only process reachable blocks
- UniformElim: Don't reuse loads of samplers and images across blocks.
Added a second phase which only reuses loads within a block for samplers
and images.
- UniformElim: Upgrade CopyObject skipping in GetPtr
- UniformElim: Add extensions whitelist
Currently disallowing SPV_KHR_variable_pointers because it doesn't
handle extended pointer forms.
- UniformElim: Do not process shaders with GroupDecorate
- UniformElim: Bail on shaders with non-32-bit ints.
- UniformElim: Document support for only single index and add TODO.
Create aggressive dead code elimination pass
This pass eliminates unused code from functions. In addition,
it detects and eliminates code which may have spurious uses but which do
not contribute to the output of the function. The most common cause of
such code sequences is summations in loops whose result is no longer used
due to dead code elimination. This optimization has additional compile
time cost over standard dead code elimination.
This pass only processes entry point functions. It also only processes
shaders with logical addressing. It currently will not process functions
with function calls. It currently only supports the GLSL.std.450 extended
instruction set. It currently does not support any extensions.
This pass will be made more effective by first running passes that remove
dead control flow and inlines function calls.
This pass can be especially useful after running Local Access Chain
Conversion, which tends to cause cycles of dead code to be left after
Store/Load elimination passes are completed. These cycles cannot be
eliminated with standard dead code elimination.
Additionally: This transform uses a whitelist of instructions that it
knows do have side effects, (a.k.a. combinators). It assumes other
instructions have side effects: it will not remove them, and assumes
they have side effects via their ID operands.
A SSA local variable load/store elimination pass.
For every entry point function, eliminate all loads and stores of function
scope variables only referenced with non-access-chain loads and stores.
Eliminate the variables as well.
The presence of access chain references and function calls can inhibit
the above optimization.
Only shader modules with logical addressing are currently processed.
Currently modules with any extensions enabled are not processed. This
is left for future work.
This pass is most effective if preceeded by Inlining and
LocalAccessChainConvert. LocalSingleStoreElim and LocalSingleBlockElim
will reduce the work that this pass has to do.
Add --flatten-decorations to spirv-opt
Flattens decoration groups. That is, replace OpDecorationGroup
and its uses in OpGroupDecorate and OpGroupMemberDecorate with
ordinary OpDecorate and OpMemberDecorate instructions.
Fixes https://github.com/KhronosGroup/SPIRV-Tools/issues/602
Exercises our public APIs more, and avoid including most
internal headers. It also shortens the processing part
of the code, but does make adding passes look more complex.
Doing this exposed issue 611, a bug in spvtools::Optimizer.
