10 // This pass identifies expensive constants to hoist and coalesces them to
11 // better prepare it for SelectionDAG-based code generation. This works around
12 // the limitations of the basic-block-at-a-time approach.
14 // First it scans all instructions for integer constants and calculates its
15 // cost. If the constant can be folded into the instruction (the cost is
16 // TCC_Free) or the cost is just a simple operation (TCC_BASIC), then we don't
17 // consider it expensive and leave it alone. This is the default behavior and
18 // the default implementation of getIntImmCost will always return TCC_Free.
20 // If the cost is more than TCC_BASIC, then the integer constant can't be folded
21 // into the instruction and it might be beneficial to hoist the constant.
22 // Similar constants are coalesced to reduce register pressure and
23 // materialization code.
25 // When a constant is hoisted, it is also hidden behind a bitcast to force it to
26 // be live-out of the basic block. Otherwise the constant would be just
27 // duplicated and each basic block would have its own copy in the SelectionDAG.
28 // The SelectionDAG recognizes such constants as opaque and doesn't perform
29 // certain transformations on them, which would create a new expensive constant.
31 // This optimization is only applied to integer constants in instructions and
32 // simple (this means not nested) constant cast expressions. For example:
33 // %0 = load i64* inttoptr (i64 big_constant to i64*)
