5 # This script helps find the optimization difference between two llvm
6 # builds. It is useful when you have a build that is known to work and
7 # one that exhibits an optimization problem. Identifying the difference
8 # between the two builds can lead to discovery of the source of a
9 # mis-optimization.
11 # The script takes two llvm build paths as arguments. These specify the
12 # the two llvm builds to compare. It is generally expected that they
13 # are "close cousins". That is, they are the same except that the
14 # second build contains some experimental optimization features that
15 # are suspected of producing a misoptimization.
17 # The script takes two bytecode files, one from each build. They are
18 # presumed to be a compilation of the same program or program fragment
19 # with the only difference being the builds.
21 # The script operates by iteratively applying the optimizations that gccas
22 # and gccld run until there is a difference in the assembly resulting
23 # from the optimization. The difference is then reported with the set of
24 # optimization passes that produce the difference. The processing
25 # continues until all optimization passes have been tried. The differences
26 # for each pass, if they do differ, are placed in a diffs.# file.
28 # To work around differences in the assembly language format, the script
29 # can also take two filter arguments that post-process the assembly
30 # so they can be differenced without making false positives for known
31 # differences in the two builds. These filters are optional.
33 # Usage:
34 # findoptdiff llvm1 llvm2 bc1 bc2 filter1 filter2
36 # Where:
37 # llvm1
38 # is the path to the first llvm build dir
39 # llvm2
40 # is the path to the second llvm build dir
41 # bc1
42 # is the bytecode file for the first llvm environment
43 # bc2
44 # is the bytecode file for the second llvm environment
45 # filter1
46 # is an optional filter for filtering the llvm1 generated assembly
47 # filter2
48 # is an optional filter for filtering the llvm2 generated assembly
