|

|
The loops tree can be manipulated using the following functions:
|
||
|
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li><code>flow_loop_tree_node_add</code>: Adds a node to the tree.
|
||
|
<li><code>flow_loop_tree_node_remove</code>: Removes a node from the tree.
|
||
|
<li><code>add_bb_to_loop</code>: Adds a basic block to a loop.
|
||
|
<li><code>remove_bb_from_loops</code>: Removes a basic block from loops.
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Most low-level CFG functions update loops automatically. The following
|
||
|
functions handle some more complicated cases of CFG manipulations:
|
||
|
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li><code>remove_path</code>: Removes an edge and all blocks it dominates.
|
||
|
<li><code>split_loop_exit_edge</code>: Splits exit edge of the loop,
|
||
|
ensuring that PHI node arguments remain in the loop (this ensures that
|
||
|
loop-closed SSA form is preserved). Only useful on GIMPLE.
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Finally, there are some higher-level loop transformations implemented.
|
||
|
While some of them are written so that they should work on non-innermost
|
||
|
loops, they are mostly untested in that case, and at the moment, they
|
||
|
are only reliable for the innermost loops:
|
||
|
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li><code>create_iv</code>: Creates a new induction variable. Only works on
|
||
|
GIMPLE. <code>standard_iv_increment_position</code> can be used to find a
|
||
|
suitable place for the iv increment.
|
||
|
<li><code>duplicate_loop_to_header_edge</code>,
|
||
|
<code>tree_duplicate_loop_to_header_edge</code>: These functions (on RTL and
|
||
|
on GIMPLE) duplicate the body of the loop prescribed number of times on
|
||
|
one of the edges entering loop header, thus performing either loop
|
||
|
unrolling or loop peeling. <code>can_duplicate_loop_p</code>
|
||
|
(<code>can_unroll_loop_p</code> on GIMPLE) must be true for the duplicated
|
||
|
loop.
|
||
|
<li><code>loop_version</code>, <code>tree_ssa_loop_version</code>: These function
|
||
|
create a copy of a loop, and a branch before them that selects one of
|
||
|
them depending on the prescribed condition. This is useful for
|
||
|
optimizations that need to verify some assumptions in runtime (one of
|
||
|
the copies of the loop is usually left unchanged, while the other one is
|
||
|
transformed in some way).
|
||
|
<li><code>tree_unroll_loop</code>: Unrolls the loop, including peeling the
|
||
|
extra iterations to make the number of iterations divisible by unroll
|
||
|
factor, updating the exit condition, and removing the exits that now
|
||
|
cannot be taken. Works only on GIMPLE.
|
||
|
