Regular IPA passes may have summary +hooks implemented in any of the LGEN, WPA or LTRANS stages (see <a href="IPA.html#IPA">IPA</a>). +</p> +<ul> +<li> IPA whole program visibility + +<p>This pass performs various optimizations involving symbol visibility +with <samp>-fwhole-program</samp>, including symbol privatization, +discovering local functions, and dismantling comdat groups. It is +located in <samp>ipa-visibility.cc</samp> and is described by +<code>pass_ipa_whole_program_visibility</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA profile + +<p>The IPA profile pass propagates profiling frequencies across the call +graph. It is located in <samp>ipa-profile.cc</samp> and is described by +<code>pass_ipa_profile</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA identical code folding + +<p>This is the inter-procedural identical code folding pass. +The goal of this transformation is to discover functions +and read-only variables that have exactly the same semantics. It is +located in <samp>ipa-icf.cc</samp> and is described by <code>pass_ipa_icf</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA devirtualization + +<p>This pass performs speculative devirtualization based on the type +inheritance graph. When a polymorphic call has only one likely target +in the unit, it is turned into a speculative call. It is located in +<samp>ipa-devirt.cc</samp> and is described by <code>pass_ipa_devirt</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA constant propagation + +<p>The goal of this pass is to discover functions that are always invoked +with some arguments with the same known constant values and to modify +the functions accordingly. It can also do partial specialization and +type-based devirtualization. It is located in <samp>ipa-cp.cc</samp> and is +described by <code>pass_ipa_cp</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA scalar replacement of aggregates + +<p>This pass can replace an aggregate parameter with a set of other parameters +representing part of the original, turning those passed by reference +into new ones which pass the value directly. It also removes unused +function return values and unused function parameters. This pass is +located in <samp>ipa-sra.cc</samp> and is described by <code>pass_ipa_sra</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA constructor/destructor merge + +<p>This pass merges multiple constructors and destructors for static +objects into single functions. It’s only run at LTO time unless the +target doesn’t support constructors and destructors natively. The +pass is located in <samp>ipa.cc</samp> and is described by +<code>pass_ipa_cdtor_merge</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA function summary + +<p>This pass provides function analysis for inter-procedural passes. +It collects estimates of function body size, execution time, and frame +size for each function. It also estimates information about function +calls: call statement size, time and how often the parameters change +for each call. It is located in <samp>ipa-fnsummary.cc</samp> and is +described by <code>pass_ipa_fn_summary</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA inline + +<p>The IPA inline pass handles function inlining with whole-program +knowledge. Small functions that are candidates for inlining are +ordered in increasing badness, bounded by unit growth parameters. +Unreachable functions are removed from the call graph. Functions called +once and not exported from the unit are inlined. This pass is located in +<samp>ipa-inline.cc</samp> and is described by <code>pass_ipa_inline</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA pure/const analysis + +<p>This pass marks functions as being either const (<code>TREE_READONLY</code>) or +pure (<code>DECL_PURE_P</code>). The per-function information is produced +by <code>pure_const_generate_summary</code>, then the global information is computed +by performing a transitive closure over the call graph. It is located in +<samp>ipa-pure-const.cc</samp> and is described by <code>pass_ipa_pure_const</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA free function summary + +<p>This pass is a regular IPA pass when argument <code>small_p</code> is false. +It releases inline function summaries and call summaries. +It is located in <samp>ipa-fnsummary.cc</samp> and is described by +<code>pass_ipa_free_fn_summary</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA reference + +<p>This pass gathers information about how variables whose scope is +confined to the compilation unit are used. It is located in +<samp>ipa-reference.cc</samp> and is described by <code>pass_ipa_reference</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA single use + +<p>This pass checks whether variables are used by a single function. +It is located in <samp>ipa.cc</samp> and is described by +<code>pass_ipa_single_use</code>. +</p> +</li><li> IPA comdats + +<p>This pass looks for static symbols that are used exclusively +within one comdat group, and moves them into that comdat group. It is +located in <samp>ipa-comdats.cc</samp> and is described by +<code>pass_ipa_comdats</code>. +</p> +</li></ul> + +<hr> +<div class="header"> +<p> +Next: <a href="Late-IPA-passes.html#Late-IPA-passes" accesskey="n" rel="next">Late IPA passes</a>, Previous: <a href="Small-IPA-passes.html#Small-IPA-passes" accesskey="p" rel="previous">Small IPA passes</a>, Up: <a href="IPA-passes.html#IPA-passes" accesskey="u" rel="up">IPA passes</a> [<a href="index.html#SEC_Contents" title="Table of contents" rel="contents">Contents</a>][<a href="Option-Index.html#Option-Index" title="Index" rel="index">Index</a>]</p> +</div> + + + +</body> +</html> |
