Each instruction is given an unique id that can be used for ordering
purposes. The ids are generated via the IRContext.
Major changes:
* Instructions now contain a uint32_t for unique id and a cached context
pointer
* Most constructors have been modified to take a context as input
* unfortunately I cannot remove the default and copy constructors, but
developers should avoid these
* Added accessors to parents of basic block and function
* Removed the copy constructors for BasicBlock and Function and replaced
them with Clone functions
* Reworked BuildModule to return an IRContext owning the built module
* Since all instructions require a context, the context now becomes the
basic unit for IR
* Added a constructor to context to create an owned module internally
* Replaced uses of Instruction's copy constructor with Clone whereever I
found them
* Reworked the linker functionality to perform clones into a different
context instead of moves
* Updated many tests to be consistent with the above changes
* Still need to add new tests to cover added functionality
* Added comparison operators to Instruction
* Added an internal option to LinkerOptions to verify merged ids are
unique
* Added a test for the linker to verify merged ids are unique
* Updated MergeReturnPass to supply a context
* Updated DecorationManager to supply a context for cloned decorations
* Reworked several portions of the def use tests in anticipation of next
set of changes
NFC. This just makes sure every file is formatted following the
formatting definition in .clang-format.
Re-formatted with:
$ clang-format -i $(find source tools include -name '*.cpp')
$ clang-format -i $(find source tools include -name '*.h')
This change will replace a number of the
std::vector<std::unique_ptr<Instruction>> member of the module to
InstructionList. This is for consistency and to make it easier to
delete instructions that are no longer needed.
Add extra iterators for ir::Module's sections
Add extra getters to ir::Function
Add a const version of BasicBlock::GetLabelInst()
Use the max of all inputs' version as version
Split debug in debug1 and debug2
- Debug1 instructions have to be placed before debug2 instructions.
Error out if different addressing or memory models are found
Exit early if no binaries were given
Error out if entry points are redeclared
Implement copy ctors for Function and BasicBlock
- Visual Studio ends up generating copy constructors that call deleted
functions while compiling the linker code, while GCC and clang do not.
So explicitly write those functions to avoid Visual Studio messing up.
Move removing duplicate capabilities to its own pass
Add functions running on all IDs present in an instruction
Remove duplicate SpvOpExtInstImport
Give default options value for link functions
Remove linkage capability if not making a library
Check types before allowing to link
Detect if two types/variables/functions have different decorations
Remove decorations of imported variables/functions and their types
Add a DecorationManager
Add a method for removing all decorations of id
Add methods for removing operands from instructions
Error out if one of the modules has a non-zero schema
Update README.md to talk about the linker
Do not freak out if an imported built-in variable has no export
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.
Also:
- Add const forms of ForEachInst
- Rewrite Module::ToBinary in terms of ForEachInst
- Add Instruction::ToBinaryWithoutAttachedDebugInsts
- Delete the ToBinary method on Function, BasicBlock, and Instruction
since it can now be implemented with ForEachInst in a less confusing
way, e.g. without recursion.
- Preserve debug line instructions on OpFunctionEnd (and store that
instruction as a unique-pointer, for regularity).
Previously we use vectors of objects and move semantics to handle
ownership. That approach has the flaw that inserting an object into
the middle of a vector, which may trigger a vector reallocation,
can invalidate some addresses taken from instructions.
Now the in-memory representation internally uses vector of unique
pointers to handle ownership. Since objects are explicitly heap-
allocated now, pointers to them won't be invalidated by vector
resizing anymore.
