10 //! This pass performs merges of loads and stores on both sides of a
11 // diamond (hammock). It hoists the loads and sinks the stores.
13 // The algorithm iteratively hoists two loads to the same address out of a
14 // diamond (hammock) and merges them into a single load in the header. Similar
15 // it sinks and merges two stores to the tail block (footer). The algorithm
16 // iterates over the instructions of one side of the diamond and attempts to
17 // find a matching load/store on the other side. New tail/footer block may be
18 // insterted if the tail/footer block has more predecessors (not only the two
19 // predecessors that are forming the diamond). It hoists / sinks when it thinks
20 // it safe to do so. This optimization helps with eg. hiding load latencies,
21 // triggering if-conversion, and reducing static code size.
23 // NOTE: This code no longer performs load hoisting, it is subsumed by GVNHoist.
25 //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
29 // Diamond shaped code before merge:
32 // br %cond, label %if.then, label %if.else
37 // %lt = load %addr_l %le = load %addr_l
38 // <use %lt> <use %le>
40 // store %st, %addr_s store %se, %addr_s
41 // br label %if.end br label %if.end
48 // Diamond shaped code after merge:
52 // br %cond, label %if.then, label %if.else
59 // br label %if.end br label %if.end
64 // %s.sink = phi [%st, if.then], [%se, if.else]
66 // store %s.sink, %addr_s
70 //===----------------------- TODO -----------------------------------------===//
72 // 1) Generalize to regions other than diamonds
73 // 2) Be more aggressive merging memory operations
74 // Note that both changes require register pressure control
