Rather than prefixing free_ to the supplied name, suffix _freelist to the
supplied name. The biggest advantage of this is it allows the free-list to
be a structure member. It also cleans up the name-space a little.
Dead nodes are those that generate unused values (unassigned leaf nodes,
expressions or destinationless move(p) nodes). The revoval is done by the
flow analysis code (via the dags code) so that any pre and post removal
flow analysis and manipulation may be done (eg, available expressions).
This fixes the segfault/null pointer access in sendv.r. While I wanted to
use the edge setting code to set the live bit, I didn't expect it to be
this easy. def_visit_all is proving to be worth every bit it consumes :)
Temps aren't supported yet :P
The alias defs themselves aren't killed (still want any assignments to
occur) but rather, their nodes are. Also, edges to the alias defs' nodes
are added to the assigning node. Fixes structlive.r :)
The live var flow analysis doesn't check for aliases. Rather than changing
it to check for aliases (which might break uninitialized var analysis, as
it uses "use" from the live var analysis), make dag_remove_dead_vars do the
check. Fixes the misplaced text in the menus.
When an alais def (or aliased def) is used, any overlapping aliases that
have previously been assigned need to be marked as live, and edges to the
aliases added to the new node. However, when assigned to, live-forcing
needs to be turned off.
This fixes the lost assignments to .super.
This fixes the bogus temps for "*to = *from++;", but qfcc ices due to the
operand types being lost. It seems alias operands need to be resurrected,
if only for code output by dags.
Also move the ALLOC/FREE macros from qfcc.h to QF/alloc.h (needed to for
set.c).
Both modules are more generally useful than just for qfcc (eg, set
builtins for ruamoko).
With the need to handle aliasing in the optimizer, it has become apparent
that having the flow data attached to symbols is not nearly as useful as
having it attached to defs (which are views of the actual variables).
This also involves a bit of a cleanup of operand types: op_pointer and
op_alias are gone (this seems to greatly simplify the optimizer)
There is a bit of a problem with enums in switch statements, but this might
actually be a sign that something is not quite right in the switch code
(other than enums not being recognized as ints for jump table
optimization).
Constant/label nodes should never be killed because they can (in theory)
never change. While constants /can/ change in the Quake VM, it's not worth
worrying about as there would be much more important things to worry about
(like 2+2 not giving 4).
Due to the hoops one would have to jump through, it is assumed that a
pointer or an offset from that pointer will never overwrite the pointer.
Having the source operand of a pointer assignment available to later
instrctions can make for more efficient code as the value does not need to
be dereferenced later. For this purpose, pointer dereference dag nodes now
store the source operand as their value, and dagnode_match will match x=a.b
with *(a+b)=y so long as both a and b are the same in both nodes. x and y
are irrelevant to the match. The resulting code will be the equivalent of:
*(a+b) = y;
x = y;
.return and .param_N are not classed as global variables for data flow
analysis. .return is taken care of by return statements, and .param_N by
call statements.
With this, the menus work up to attempting to load the menu plist.
Something is corrupting zmalloc's blocks.
Function calls need to ensure .param_N actually get assigned, and so the
params must be seen as live by the dead variable removal code. However, it
is undesirable to modify the live vars data of the flow node, so make a
local copy.
The main void defs are .return and .param_N. If the source operand is void,
use the destination operand's type to alias the source operand rather than
the source operand's type to alias the destination's operand (the usual
case).
The dags code isn't the only place that creates temporary variables, so
count them as they go into a statement rather than when they're created.
This fixes the temp underflows.
