1 ;;;; This file implements local call analysis. A local call is a
2 ;;;; function call between functions being compiled at the same time.
3 ;;;; If we can tell at compile time that such a call is legal, then we
4 ;;;; change the combination to call the correct lambda, mark it as
5 ;;;; local, and add this link to our call graph. Once a call is local,
6 ;;;; it is then eligible for let conversion, which places the body of
7 ;;;; the function inline.
8 ;;;;
9 ;;;; We cannot always do a local call even when we do have the
10 ;;;; function being called. Calls that cannot be shown to have legal
11 ;;;; arg counts are not converted.
13 ;;;; This software is part of the SBCL system. See the README file for
14 ;;;; more information.
15 ;;;;
16 ;;;; This software is derived from the CMU CL system, which was
17 ;;;; written at Carnegie Mellon University and released into the
18 ;;;; public domain. The software is in the public domain and is
19 ;;;; provided with absolutely no warranty. See the COPYING and CREDITS
20 ;;;; files for more information.
24 ;;; This function propagates information from the variables in the
25 ;;; function FUN to the actual arguments in CALL. This is also called
26 ;;; by the VALUES IR1 optimizer when it sleazily converts MV-BINDs to
27 ;;; LETs.
28 ;;;
29 ;;; We flush all arguments to CALL that correspond to unreferenced
30 ;;; variables in FUN. We leave NILs in the COMBINATION-ARGS so that
31 ;;; the remaining args still match up with their vars.
32 ;;;
33 ;;; We also apply the declared variable type assertion to the argument
34 ;;; lvars.
48 ;; DX value generators must end their blocks: see UPDATE-UVL-LIVE-SETS.
49 ;; Uses of mupltiple-use LVARs already end their blocks, so we just need
50 ;; to process uses of single-use LVARs.
53 ;; If this LVAR's USE is good for DX, it is either a CAST, or it
54 ;; must be a regular combination whose arguments are potentially DX as well.
79 ;; Stack analysis requires that the CALL ends the block, so
80 ;; that MAP-BLOCK-NLXES sees the cleanup we insert here.

97 ;;; This function handles merging the tail sets if CALL is potentially
98 ;;; tail-recursive, and is a call to a function with a different
99 ;;; TAIL-SET than CALL's FUN. This must be called whenever we alter
100 ;;; IR1 so as to place a local call in what might be a tail-recursive
101 ;;; context. Note that any call which returns its value to a RETURN is
102 ;;; considered potentially tail-recursive, since any implicit MV-PROG1
103 ;;; might be optimized away.
104 ;;;
105 ;;; We destructively modify the set for the calling function to
106 ;;; represent both, and then change all the functions in callee's set
107 ;;; to reference the first. If we do merge, we reoptimize the
108 ;;; RETURN-RESULT lvar to cause IR1-OPTIMIZE-RETURN to recompute the
109 ;;; tail set type.

127 ;;; function that the call is in, call MERGE-TAIL-SETS, then replace
128 ;;; the function in the REF node with the new function.
129 ;;;
130 ;;; We change the REF last, since changing the reference can trigger
131 ;;; LET conversion of the new function, but will only do so if the
132 ;;; call is local. Note that the replacement may trigger LET
133 ;;; conversion or other changes in IR1. We must call MERGE-TAIL-SETS
134 ;;; with NEW-FUN before the substitution, since after the substitution

730 ;;;; Converting to a LET has differing significance to various parts
731 ;;;; of the compiler:
732 ;;;; -- The body of a LET is spliced in immediately after the
733 ;;;; corresponding combination node, making the control transfer
734 ;;;; explicit and allowing LETs to be mashed together into a single
735 ;;;; block. The value of the LET is delivered directly to the
736 ;;;; original lvar for the call, eliminating the need to
737 ;;;; propagate information from the dummy result lvar.
738 ;;;; -- As far as IR1 optimization is concerned, it is interesting in
739 ;;;; that there is only one expression that the variable can be bound
740 ;;;; to, and this is easily substituted for.
741 ;;;; -- LETs are interesting to environment analysis and to the back
742 ;;;; end because in most ways a LET can be considered to be "the
743 ;;;; same function" as its home function.
744 ;;;; -- LET conversion has dynamic scope implications, since control
745 ;;;; transfers within the same environment are local. In a local
746 ;;;; control transfer, cleanup code must be emitted to remove
747 ;;;; dynamic bindings that are no longer in effect.
749 ;;; Set up the control transfer to the called CLAMBDA. We split the
750 ;;; call block immediately after the call, and link the head of
751 ;;; CLAMBDA to the call block. The successor block after splitting
752 ;;; (where we return to) is returned.
753 ;;;

793 ;; which you called in order to get the address of an external LAMBDA):
794 ;; the external function was defined in terms of internal function,
795 ;; which was LET-converted, and then things blew up downstream when
796 ;; FINALIZE-XEP-DEFINITION tried to find out its DEFINED-TYPE from
797 ;; the now-NILed-out TAIL-SET. So..

799 ;; To deal with this problem, we no longer NIL out
800 ;; (LAMBDA-TAIL-SET CLAMBDA) here. Instead:
801 ;; * If we're the only function in TAIL-SET-FUNS, it should
802 ;; be safe to leave ourself linked to it, and it to you.
803 ;; * If there are other functions in TAIL-SET-FUNS, then we're
804 ;; afraid of future optimizations on those functions causing
805 ;; the TAIL-SET object no longer to be valid to describe our
806 ;; return value. Thus, we delete ourselves from that object;
807 ;; but we save a newly-allocated tail-set, derived from the old
808 ;; one, for ourselves, for the use of later code (e.g.
809 ;; FINALIZE-XEP-DEFINITION) which might want to
810 ;; know about our return type.
819 ;; The documentation on TAIL-SET-INFO doesn't tell whether it could
820 ;; remain valid in this case, so we nuke it on the theory that
821 ;; missing information tends to be less dangerous than incorrect
822 ;; information.

1160 ;;; CLAMBDA to an assignment. All this function really does is
1161 ;;; determine when a function with more than one call can still be
1162 ;;; combined with the calling function's environment. We can convert
1163 ;;; when:
1164 ;;; -- The function is a normal, non-entry function, and
1165 ;;; -- Except for one call, all calls must be tail recursive calls
1166 ;;; in the called function (i.e. are self-recursive tail calls)
1167 ;;; -- OK-INITIAL-CONVERT-P is true.
1168 ;;;
1169 ;;; There may be one outside call, and it need not be tail-recursive.
1170 ;;; Since all tail local calls have already been converted to direct
1171 ;;; transfers, the only control semantics needed are to splice in the
1172 ;;; body at the non-tail call. If there is no non-tail call, then we
1173 ;;; need only merge the environments. Both cases are handled by
1174 ;;; LET-CONVERT.
1175 ;;;
1176 ;;; ### It would actually be possible to allow any number of outside
1177 ;;; calls as long as they all return to the same place (i.e. have the
1178 ;;; same conceptual continuation.) A special case of this would be
1179 ;;; when all of the outside calls are tail recursive.
