Propagate stores of stack addresses into other local variables · 0b506e1dNicolas Capens authored
Pointers to the base address of arrays often get stored and then loaded multiple time. This change adds an optimization pass to replace these loads with the result of the alloca of the array, and eliminates the allocas of the pointer variables. The PropagateAlloca unit test without this optimization produces: sub rsp,38h mov dword ptr [rsp+8],16h cmp ecx,0 je 000002543C4E407E lea rax,[rsp+8] mov qword ptr [rsp],rax mov rax,qword ptr [rsp] mov eax,dword ptr [rax] add rsp,38h ret With the optimization pass it becomes: sub rsp,38h mov dword ptr [rsp],16h cmp ecx,0 jne 0000015DC3B33074 mov eax,dword ptr [rsp] add rsp,38h ret Also add a couple of unit tests for corner cases where the propagation is not safe to perform.
