<h3 class="section">23.3 Interacting with the pass manager</h3>
<p>There needs to be a way to add/reorder/remove passes dynamically. This
is useful for both analysis plugins (plugging in after a certain pass
such as CFG or an IPA pass) and optimization plugins.
<p>Basic support for inserting new passes or replacing existing passes is
provided. A plugin registers a new pass with GCC by calling
<code>register_callback</code> with the <code>PLUGIN_PASS_MANAGER_SETUP</code>
event and a pointer to a <code>struct register_pass_info</code> object defined as follows
<pre class="smallexample"> enum pass_positioning_ops
{
PASS_POS_INSERT_AFTER, // Insert after the reference pass.
PASS_POS_INSERT_BEFORE, // Insert before the reference pass.
PASS_POS_REPLACE // Replace the reference pass.
};
struct register_pass_info
{
struct opt_pass *pass; /* New pass provided by the plugin. */
const char *reference_pass_name; /* Name of the reference pass for hooking
up the new pass. */
int ref_pass_instance_number; /* Insert the pass at the specified
instance number of the reference pass. */
/* Do it for every instance if it is 0. */
enum pass_positioning_ops pos_op; /* how to insert the new pass. */
};
/* Sample plugin code that registers a new pass. */
int
plugin_init (struct plugin_name_args *plugin_info,
struct plugin_gcc_version *version)
{
struct register_pass_info pass_info;
...
/* Code to fill in the pass_info object with new pass information. */
...
/* Register the new pass. */
register_callback (plugin_info-&gt;base_name, PLUGIN_PASS_MANAGER_SETUP, NULL, &amp;pass_info);
...
}
</pre>
