This is actually easier than I though.
It is also very simple to reason about.

If you are not looking at the size field at all.
It is exactly the same as before, except we
create a few more pseudo for the same value
that have different size.

The size just tag along the constant pseudo.
Which did not change any way.

Chris


---------------------------------------------
Currently value pseudo does not have size.
This create a problem pointed out by Dibyendu.
When using LLVM, calling varidic function with
constant value, there is no where to find the
size.

Linus give out two suggestions. One is give pseudo
a size. The other one is the push instruction.
This is the implemnation of the first suggestion.

The model is actual very simple. The pseudo is
exactly as before if you are not looking at the size.
There is a size at create time, which tag alone with
it.

I might not get all the type and cast of the constant
right, we can fix it later if we found some case I did
not cover.

Testign done:

- Test suite passed.
- Kernel compile get the exact same output as the RC5
  at similar time.

I assume that you have not yet applied this approach to Sparse-LLVM
and tested that it works for var arg calls? I would suggest completing
the changes so that it can be tested thoroughly.

I personally don't have a preference one way or the other which approach we use.

The push approach has the benefit that it makes clear what arguments
are being passed in a call. Previously this information was not
revealed in the Sparse linearized dump. It would be a shame to lose
that information - perhaps you could still dump the arguments along
with a call?

Second benefit to me is that I have already incorporated this into
dmrC so changing it will mean rework for me.

BTW one could also have a more restricted 'push' solution that is
specific to var arg calls - i.e. only capture the arguments when
calling a var arg function, and avoid putting the push instructions
into the linear stream.

No. this is just one night's hack to make the plumbing part work.
Provide a size for the VALUE pseudo. I haven't have a chance to
integrate into sparse-llvm.

Are you sure?
Here is what I have for RC5:
./test-linearize cse.c

.L414:
load.64     %r1052 <- 0[insn]
call.64     %r1053 <- try_to_cse, %arg1, %r1044(last), %r1052
store.64    %r1053 -> 0[insn]
phisrc.64   %phi474 <- %r1053
br          .L413

You can see exactly what is the calling arguments. There is an pseudo_list
for the arguments.

struct /* call */ {
pseudo_t func;
struct pseudo_list *arguments; <==============
struct symbol *fntype;
};


The only thing you want, which is not there is the VALUE pseudo_size.
I add that in this patch.

I haven't take a deep look into the push instruction patch yet. I image this is
less impact on the IR and get the job done. With less redundant information
in the IR. The instruction stream is more compact as well.

Ah okay - I don't see that in dmrC output. It must have been removed
as part of the push change.
