See LICENSE.TXT for details. // //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// // // This file implements a CFL-base, summary-based alias analysis algorithm. It // does not depend on types. The algorithm is a mixture of the one described in // "Demand-driven alias analysis for C" by Xin Zheng and Radu Rugina, and "Fast // algorithms for Dyck-CFL-reachability with applications to Alias Analysis" by // Zhang Q, Lyu M R, Yuan H, and Su Z. -- to summarize the papers, we build a // graph of the uses of a variable, where each node is a memory location, and // each edge is an action that happened on that memory location. The "actions" // can be one of Dereference, Reference, or Assign. The precision of this // analysis is roughly the same as that of an one level context-sensitive // Steensgaard's algorithm. // // Two variables are considered as aliasing iff you can reach one value's node // from the other value's node and the language formed by concatenating all of // the edge labels (actions) conforms to a context-free grammar. // // Because this algorithm requires a graph search on each query, we execute the // algorithm outlined in "Fast algorithms..." (mentioned above) // in order to transform the graph into sets of variables that may alias in // ~nlogn time (n = number of variables), which makes queries take constant // time. //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// // N.B. AliasAnalysis as a whole is phrased as a FunctionPass at the moment, and // CFLSteensAA is interprocedural. This is *technically* A Bad Thing, because // FunctionPasses are only allowed to inspect the Function that they're being // run on. Realistically, this likely isn't a problem until we allow // FunctionPasses to run concurrently. #include "llvm/Analysis/CFLSteensAliasAnalysis.h" #include "AliasAnalysisSummary.h" #include "CFLGraph.h" #include "StratifiedSets.h" #include "llvm/ADT/DenseMap.h" #include "llvm/ADT/Optional.h" #include "llvm/ADT/SmallVector.h" #include "llvm/Analysis/TargetLibraryInfo.h" #include "llvm/IR/Constants.h" #include "llvm/IR/Function.h" #include "llvm/IR/Type.h" #include "llvm/IR/Value.h" #include "llvm/Pass.h" #include "llvm/Support/Debug.h" #include "llvm/Support/raw_ostream.h" #include <algorithm> #include <cassert> #include <limits> #include <memory> #include <utility> using namespace llvm; using namespace llvm::cflaa; #define DEBUG_TYPE "cfl-steens-aa" CFLSteensAAResult::CFLSteensAAResult(const TargetLibraryInfo &TLI) : AAResultBase(), TLI(TLI) {} CFLSteensAAResult::CFLSteensAAResult(CFLSteensAAResult &&Arg) : AAResultBase(std::move(Arg)), TLI(Arg.TLI) {} CFLSteensAAResult::~CFLSteensAAResult() = default; /// Information we have about a function and would like to keep around. class CFLSteensAAResult::FunctionInfo { StratifiedSets<InstantiatedValue> Sets; AliasSummary Summary; public: FunctionInfo(Function &Fn, const SmallVectorImpl<Value *> &RetVals, StratifiedSets<InstantiatedValue> S); const StratifiedSets<InstantiatedValue> &getStratifiedSets() const { return Sets; } const AliasSummary &getAliasSummary() const { return Summary; } }; const StratifiedIndex StratifiedLink::SetSentinel = std::numeric_limits<StratifiedIndex>::max(); //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// // Function declarations that require types defined in the namespace above //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// /// Determines whether it would be pointless to add the given Value to our sets. static bool canSkipAddingToSets(Value *Val) { // Constants can share instances, which may falsely unify multiple // sets, e.g. in // store i32* null, i32** %ptr1 // store i32* null, i32** %ptr2 // clearly ptr1 and ptr2 should not be unified into the same set, so // we should filter out the (potentially shared) instance to // i32* null. if (isa<Constant>(Val)) { // TODO: Because all of these things are constant, we can determine whether // the data is *actually* mutable at graph building time.
