21 /* A debug counter provides you a way to count an event
22 and return false after the counter has exceeded the threshold
23 specified by the option.
25 What is it used for ?
27 This is primarily used to speed up the search for the bad transformation
28 an optimization pass does. By doing a binary search on N,
29 you can quickly narrow down to one transformation
30 which is bad, or which triggers the bad behavior downstream
31 (usually in the form of the badly generated code).
33 How does it work ?
35 Every time dbg_cnt(named-counter) is called,
36 the counter is incremented for the named-counter.
37 And the incremented value is compared against the threshold (limit)
38 specified by the option.
39 dbg_cnt () returns true if it is at or below threshold, and false if above.
41 How to add a new one ?
43 To add a new counter, simply add an entry below with some descriptive name,
44 and add call(s) to dbg_cnt(your-counter-name) in appropriate places.
45 Usually, you want to control at the finest granularity
46 any particular transformation can happen.
47 e.g. for each instruction in a dead code elimination,
48 or for each copy instruction in register coalescing,
49 or constant-propagation for each insn,
50 or a block straightening, etc.
51 See dce.c for an example. With the dbg_cnt () call in dce.c,
52 now a developer can use -fdbg-cnt=dce:N
53 to stop doing the dead code elimination after N times.
55 How to use it ?
57 By default, all limits are UINT_MAX.
58 Since debug count is unsigned int, <= UINT_MAX returns true always.
59 i.e. dbg_cnt() returns true always regardless of the counter value
60 (although it still counts the event).
61 Use -fdbg-cnt=counter1:N,counter2:M,...
62 which sets the limit for counter1 to N, and the limit for counter2 to M, etc.
63 e.g. setting a limit to zero will make dbg_cnt () return false *always*.
65 The following shell file can then be used to binary search for
66 exact transformation that causes the bug. A second shell script
67 should be written, say "tryTest", which exits with 1 if the
68 compiled program fails and exits with 0 if the program succeeds.
69 This shell script should take 1 parameter, the value to be passed
70 to set the counter of the compilation command in tryTest. Then,
71 assuming that the following script is called binarySearch,
72 the command:
74 binarySearch tryTest
76 will automatically find the highest value of the counter for which
77 the program fails. If tryTest never fails, binarySearch will
78 produce unpredictable results as it will try to find an upper bound
79 that does not exist.
81 When dbgcnt does hits the limit, it writes a comment in the current
82 dump_file of the form:
84 ***dbgcnt: limit reached for %s.***
86 Assuming that the dump file is logging the analysis/transformations
87 it is making, this pinpoints the exact position in the log file
88 where the problem transformation is being logged.
