10 // This file transforms calls of the current function (self recursion) followed
11 // by a return instruction with a branch to the entry of the function, creating
12 // a loop. This pass also implements the following extensions to the basic
15 // 1. Trivial instructions between the call and return do not prevent the
16 // transformation from taking place, though currently the analysis cannot
17 // support moving any really useful instructions (only dead ones).
18 // 2. This pass transforms functions that are prevented from being tail
19 // recursive by an associative and commutative expression to use an
20 // accumulator variable, thus compiling the typical naive factorial or
21 // 'fib' implementation into efficient code.
22 // 3. TRE is performed if the function returns void, if the return
23 // returns the result returned by the call, or if the function returns a
24 // run-time constant on all exits from the function. It is possible, though
25 // unlikely, that the return returns something else (like constant 0), and
26 // can still be TRE'd. It can be TRE'd if ALL OTHER return instructions in
27 // the function return the exact same value.
28 // 4. If it can prove that callees do not access their caller stack frame,
29 // they are marked as eligible for tail call elimination (by the code
32 // There are several improvements that could be made:
34 // 1. If the function has any alloca instructions, these instructions will be
35 // moved out of the entry block of the function, causing them to be
36 // evaluated each time through the tail recursion. Safely keeping allocas
37 // in the entry block requires analysis to proves that the tail-called
38 // function does not read or write the stack object.
39 // 2. Tail recursion is only performed if the call immediately precedes the
40 // return instruction. It's possible that there could be a jump between
41 // the call and the return.
42 // 3. There can be intervening operations between the call and the return that
43 // prevent the TRE from occurring. For example, there could be GEP's and
44 // stores to memory that will not be read or written by the call. This
45 // requires some substantial analysis (such as with DSA) to prove safe to
46 // move ahead of the call, but doing so could allow many more TREs to be
47 // performed, for example in TreeAdd/TreeAlloc from the treeadd benchmark.
48 // 4. The algorithm we use to detect if callees access their caller stack
49 // frames is very primitive.
