Return true if the speedup for inlining E is bigger than PARAM_MAX_INLINE_MIN_SPEEDUP.
|
static |
Return false when inlining edge E would lead to violating limits on function unit growth or stack usage growth. The relative function body growth limit is present generally to avoid problems with non-linear behavior of the compiler. To allow inlining huge functions into tiny wrapper, the limit is always based on the bigger of the two functions considered. For stack growth limits we always base the growth in stack usage of the callers. We want to prevent applications from segfaulting on stack overflow when functions with huge stack frames gets inlined.
Look for function e->caller is inlined to. While doing so work out the largest function body on the way. As described above, we want to base our function growth limits based on that. Not on the self size of the outer function, not on the self size of inline code we immediately inline to. This is the most relaxed interpretation of the rule "do not grow large functions too much in order to prevent compiler from exploding".
Check the size after inlining against the function limits. But allow the function to shrink if it went over the limits by forced inlining.
FIXME: Stack size limit often prevents inlining in Fortran programs due to large i/o datastructures used by the Fortran front-end. We ought to ignore this limit when we know that the edge is executed on every invocation of the caller (i.e. its call statement dominates exit block). We do not track this information, yet.
Check new stack consumption with stack consumption at the place stack is used.
If function already has large stack usage from sibling inline call, we can inline, too. This bit overoptimistically assume that we are good at stack packing.

Return true if the edge E is inlinable during early inlining.
Early inliner might get called at WPA stage when IPA pass adds new function. In this case we can not really do any of early inlining because function bodies are missing.
In early inliner some of callees may not be in SSA form yet (i.e. the callgraph is cyclic and we did not process the callee by early inliner, yet). We don't have CIF code for this case; later we will re-do the decision in the real inliner.
|
static |
Decide if we can inline the edge and possibly update inline_failed reason. We check whether inlining is possible at all and whether caller growth limits allow doing so. if REPORT is true, output reason to the dump file. if DISREGARD_LIMITES is true, ignore size limits.
Don't inline if the functions have different EH personalities.
TM pure functions should not be inlined into non-TM_pure functions.
Don't inline if the callee can throw non-call exceptions but the caller cannot. FIXME: this is obviously wrong for LTO where STRUCT_FUNCTION is missing. Move the flag into cgraph node or mirror it in the inline summary.
Check compatibility of target optimization options.
Check if caller growth allows the inlining.
Don't inline a function with a higher optimization level than the caller. FIXME: this is really just tip of iceberg of handling optimization attribute.

Decide on the inlining. We do so in the topological order to avoid expenses on updating data structures.
Do not consider functions not declared inline.
|
static |
Do inlining of small functions. Doing so early helps profiling and other passes to be somewhat more effective and avoids some code duplication in later real inlining pass for testcases with very many function calls.
Do nothing if datastructures for ipa-inliner are already computed. This happens when some pass decides to construct new function and cgraph_add_new_function calls lowering passes and early optimization on it. This may confuse ourself when early inliner decide to inline call to function clone, because function clones don't have parameter list in ipa-prop matching their signature.
Even when not optimizing or not inlining inline always-inline functions.
Never inline regular functions into always-inline functions during incremental inlining. This sucks as functions calling always inline functions will get less optimized, but at the same time inlining of functions calling always inline function into an always inline function might introduce cycles of edges to be always inlined in the callgraph. We might want to be smarter and just avoid this type of inlining.
When the function is marked to be flattened, recursively inline all calls in it.
We iterate incremental inlining to get trivial cases of indirect inlining.
Technically we ought to recompute inline parameters so the new iteration of early inliner works as expected. We however have values approximately right and thus we only need to update edge info that might be cleared out for newly discovered edges.

A cost model driving the inlining heuristics in a way so the edges with smallest badness are inlined first. After each inlining is performed the costs of all caller edges of nodes affected are recomputed so the metrics may accurately depend on values such as number of inlinable callers of the function or function body size.
Always prefer inlining saving code size.
When profiling is available, compute badness as: relative_edge_count * relative_time_benefit goodness = ------------------------------------------- growth_f_caller badness = -goodness The fraction is upside down, because on edge counts and time beneits the bounds are known. Edge growth is essentially unlimited.
Capping edge->count to max_count. edge->count can be larger than max_count if an inline adds new edges which increase max_count after max_count is computed.
relative_edge_count.
relative_time_benefit.
growth_f_caller.
When function local profile is available. Compute badness as: relative_time_benefit goodness = --------------------------------- growth_of_caller * overall_growth badness = - goodness compensated by the inline hints.
When function local profile is not available or it does not give useful information (ie frequency is zero), base the cost on loop nest and overall size growth, so we optimize for overall number of functions fully inlined in program.
Decrease badness if call is nested.
Ensure that we did not overflow in all the fixed point math above.
Make recursive inlining happen always after other inlining is done.

Flatten NODE. Performed both during early inlining and at IPA inlining time.
We shouldn't be called recursively when we are being processed.
We've hit cycle? It is time to give up.
When the edge is already inlined, we just need to recurse into it in order to fully flatten the leaves.
Flatten attribute needs to be processed during late inlining. For extra code quality we however do flattening during early optimization, too.
Inline the edge and flatten the inline clone. Avoid recursing through the original node if the node was cloned.

Inline always-inline function calls in NODE.
Set inlined to true if the callee is marked "always_inline" but is not inlinable. This will allow flagging an error later in expand_call_inline in tree-inline.c.

We use greedy algorithm for inlining of small functions: All inline candidates are put into prioritized heap ordered in increasing badness. The inlining of small functions is bounded by unit growth parameters.
Compute overall unit size and other global parameters used by badness metrics.
Populate the heeap with all edges we might inline.
Be sure that caches are maintained consistent. We can not make this ENABLE_CHECKING only because it cause different updates of the fibheap queue.
When updating the edge costs, we only decrease badness in the keys. Increases of badness are handled lazilly; when we see key with out of date value on it, we re-insert it now.
Heuristics for inlining small functions works poorly for recursive calls where we do efect similar to loop unrolling. When inliing such edge seems profitable, leave decision on specific inliner.
Recursive inliner inlines all recursive calls of the function at once. Consequently we need to update all callee keys.
Consider the case where self recursive function A is inlined into B. This is desired optimization in some cases, since it leads to effect similar of loop peeling and we might completely optimize out the recursive call. However we must be extra selective.
Our profitability metric can depend on local properties such as number of inlinable calls and size of the function body. After inlining these properties might change for the function we inlined into (since it's body size changed) and for the functions called by function we inlined (since number of it inlinable callers might change).

Inline NODE to all callers. Worker for cgraph_for_node_and_aliases. DATA points to number of calls originally found so we avoid infinite recursion.

Decide on the inlining. We do so in the topological order to avoid expenses on updating data structures.
In the first pass handle functions to be flattened. Do this with a priority so none of our later choices will make this impossible.
Handle nodes to be flattened. Ideally when processing callees we stop inlining at the entry of cycles, possibly cloning that entry point and try to flatten itself turning it into a self-recursive function.
Do first after-inlining removal. We want to remove all "stale" extern inline functions and virtual functions so we really know what is called once.
Inline functions with a property that after inlining into all callers the code size will shrink because the out-of-line copy is eliminated. We do this regardless on the callee size as long as function growth limits are met.
Inlining one function called once has good chance of preventing inlining other function into the same callee. Ideally we should work in priority order, but probably inlining hot functions first is good cut without the extra pain of maintaining the queue. ??? this is not really fitting the bill perfectly: inlining function into callee often leads to better optimization of callee due to increased context for optimization. For example if main() function calls a function that outputs help and then function that does the main optmization, we should inline the second with priority even if both calls are cold by themselves. We probably want to implement new predicate replacing our use of maybe_hot_edge interpreted as maybe_hot_edge || callee is known to be hot.
Free ipa-prop structures if they are no longer needed.
In WPA we use inline summaries for partitioning process.

Decide on recursive inlining: in the case function has recursive calls, inline until body size reaches given argument. If any new indirect edges are discovered in the process, add them to *NEW_EDGES, unless NEW_EDGES is NULL.
Make sure that function is small enough to be considered for inlining.
Do the inlining and update list of recursive call during process.
MASTER_CLONE is produced in the case we already started modified the function. Be sure to redirect edge to the original body before estimating growths otherwise we will be seeing growths after inlining the already modified body.
We need original clone to copy around.
Remove master clone we used for inlining. We rely that clones inlined into master clone gets queued just before master clone so we don't need recursion.

NODE was inlined. All caller edges needs to be resetted because size estimates change. Similarly callees needs reset because better context may be known.

We know that EDGE is not going to be inlined. See if we can remove speculation.
bool speculation_useful_p | ( | ) |
Return true if speculation of edge E seems useful. If ANTICIPATE_INLINING is true, be conservative and hope that E may get inlined.
See if IP optimizations found something potentially useful about the function. For now we look only for CONST/PURE flags. Almost everything else we propagate is useless.
If we did not managed to inline the function nor redirect to an ipa-cp clone (that are seen by having local flag set), it is probably pointless to inline it unless hardware is missing indirect call predictor.
For overwritable targets there is not much to do.
OK, speculation seems interesting.

Recompute HEAP nodes for each uninlined call in NODE. This is used when we know that edge badnesses are going only to increase (we introduced new call site) and thus all we need is to insert newly created edges into heap.
We do not reset callee growth cache here. Since we added a new call, growth chould have just increased and consequentely badness metric don't need updating.

Decide if inlining NODE would reduce unit size by eliminating the offline copy of function. When COLD is true the cold calls are considered, too.

EDGE is self recursive edge. We hand two cases - when function A is inlining into itself or when function A is being inlined into another inliner copy of function A within function B. In first case OUTER_NODE points to the toplevel copy of A, while in the second case OUTER_NODE points to the outermost copy of A in B. In both cases we want to be extra selective since inlining the call will just introduce new recursive calls to appear.
Inlining of self recursive function into copy of itself within other function is transformation similar to loop peeling. Peeling is profitable if we can inline enough copies to make probability of actual call to the self recursive function very small. Be sure that the probability of recursion is small. We ensure that the frequency of recursing is at most 1 - (1/max_depth). This way the expected number of recision is at most max_depth.
Recursive inlining, i.e. equivalent of unrolling, is profitable if recursion depth is large. We reduce function call overhead and increase chances that things fit in hardware return predictor. Recursive inlining might however increase cost of stack frame setup actually slowing down functions whose recursion tree is wide rather than deep. Deciding reliably on when to do recursive inlining without profile feedback is tricky. For now we disable recursive inlining when probability of self recursion is low. Recursive inlining of self recursive call within loop also results in large loop depths that generally optimize badly. We may want to throttle down inlining in those cases. In particular this seems to happen in one of libstdc++ rb tree methods.

Return true if we are interested in inlining small function. When REPORT is true, report reason to dump file.
Apply MAX_INLINE_INSNS_SINGLE limit. Do not do so when hints suggests that inlining given function is very profitable.
Before giving up based on fact that caller size will grow, allow functions that are called few times and eliminating the offline copy will lead to overall code size reduction. Not all of these will be handled by subsequent inlining of functions called once: in particular weak functions are not handled or funcitons that inline to multiple calls but a lot of bodies is optimized out. Finally we want to inline earlier to allow inlining of callbacks. This is slightly wrong on aggressive side: it is entirely possible that function is called many times with a context where inlining reduces code size and few times with a context where inlining increase code size. Resoluting growth estimate will be negative even if it would make more sense to keep offline copy and do not inline into the call sites that makes the code size grow. When badness orders the calls in a way that code reducing calls come first, this situation is not a problem at all: after inlining all "good" calls, we will realize that keeping the function around is better.
Unlike for functions called once, we play unsafe with COMDATs. We can allow that since we know functions in consideration are small (and thus risk is small) and moreover grow estimates already accounts that COMDAT functions may or may not disappear when eliminated from current unit. With good probability making aggressive choice in all units is going to make overall program smaller. Consequently we ask cgraph_can_remove_if_no_direct_calls_p instead of cgraph_will_be_removed_from_program_if_no_direct_calls
Apply MAX_INLINE_INSNS_AUTO limit for functions not declared inline Upgrade it to MAX_INLINE_INSNS_SINGLE when hints suggests that inlining given function is very profitable.
If call is cold, do not inline when function body would grow.

Inlining decision heuristics The implementation of inliner is organized as follows: inlining heuristics limits can_inline_edge_p allow to check that particular inlining is allowed by the limits specified by user (allowed function growth, growth and so on). Functions are inlined when it is obvious the result is profitable (such as functions called once or when inlining reduce code size). In addition to that we perform inlining of small functions and recursive inlining. inlining heuristics The inliner itself is split into two passes: pass_early_inlining Simple local inlining pass inlining callees into current function. This pass makes no use of whole unit analysis and thus it can do only very simple decisions based on local properties. The strength of the pass is that it is run in topological order (reverse postorder) on the callgraph. Functions are converted into SSA form just before this pass and optimized subsequently. As a result, the callees of the function seen by the early inliner was already optimized and results of early inlining adds a lot of optimization opportunities for the local optimization. The pass handle the obvious inlining decisions within the compilation unit - inlining auto inline functions, inlining for size and flattening. main strength of the pass is the ability to eliminate abstraction penalty in C++ code (via combination of inlining and early optimization) and thus improve quality of analysis done by real IPA optimizers. Because of lack of whole unit knowledge, the pass can not really make good code size/performance tradeoffs. It however does very simple speculative inlining allowing code size to grow by EARLY_INLINING_INSNS when callee is leaf function. In this case the optimizations performed later are very likely to eliminate the cost. pass_ipa_inline This is the real inliner able to handle inlining with whole program knowledge. It performs following steps: 1) inlining of small functions. This is implemented by greedy algorithm ordering all inlinable cgraph edges by their badness and inlining them in this order as long as inline limits allows doing so. This heuristics is not very good on inlining recursive calls. Recursive calls can be inlined with results similar to loop unrolling. To do so, special purpose recursive inliner is executed on function when recursive edge is met as viable candidate. 2) Unreachable functions are removed from callgraph. Inlining leads to devirtualization and other modification of callgraph so functions may become unreachable during the process. Also functions declared as extern inline or virtual functions are removed, since after inlining we no longer need the offline bodies. 3) Functions called once and not exported from the unit are inlined. This should almost always lead to reduction of code size by eliminating the need for offline copy of the function.
Statistics we collect about inlining algorithm.
