Variables are sometimes missing their debug location information in blocks in which the variables should be available. This would occur when one or more predecessor blocks had not yet been visited by the routine which propagated the information from predecessor blocks. This is addressed by only considering predecessor blocks which have already been visited. The solution to this problem was suggested by Daniel Berlin on the LLVM developer mailing list. Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D24927 git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@282506 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
This addresses PR26055 LiveDebugValues is very slow.
Contrary to the old LiveDebugVariables pass LiveDebugValues currently
doesn't look at the lexical scopes before inserting a DBG_VALUE
intrinsic. This means that we often propagate DBG_VALUEs much further
down than necessary. This is especially noticeable in large C++
functions with many inlined method calls that all use the same
"this"-pointer.
For example, in the following code it makes no sense to propagate the
inlined variable a from the first inlined call to f() into any of the
subsequent basic blocks, because the variable will always be out of
scope:
void sink(int a);
void __attribute((always_inline)) f(int a) { sink(a); }
void foo(int i) {
f(i);
if (i)
f(i);
f(i);
}
This patch reuses the LexicalScopes infrastructure we have for
LiveDebugVariables to take this into account.
The effect on compile time and memory consumption is quite noticeable:
I tested a benchmark that is a large C++ source with an enormous
amount of inlined "this"-pointers that would previously eat >24GiB
(most of them for DBG_VALUE intrinsics) and whose compile time was
dominated by LiveDebugValues. With this patch applied the memory
consumption is 1GiB and 1.7% of the time is spent in LiveDebugValues.
