//! Taking out a safety check whose answer is already known.
//!
//! Design: `spec/safe-memory/07-check-elimination.md` section 7.3, which is the first half of the
//! Tier E budget. `rucc-safety` puts a bounds check and a lifetime check in front of every access
//! and does not try to be clever about it, on purpose: a walk that inserts everything is a walk
//! anybody can read, and every check that is not needed is meant to be taken out here instead.
//! This pass takes them out, and it does the case document 07 expects to be worth the most and to
//! be the easiest to get right, which is a second access to bytes an earlier access already had
//! checked. Five kinds are the pass's business, the bounds check and the lifetime check and the
//! initialization check and the type check in front of an access and the derivation check after a
//! walk, because they are emitted together and taking out one of five is a fifth of a saving.
//!
//! The four in front of an access are four different claims and they get four fact sets. Which
//! bytes are inside one storage instance, which of them are in an instance that is alive, which of
//! them have been written, and which of them agree with a type. A check that passes establishes
//! exactly one of the four, they are killed by different things, and reporting them as one number
//! would hide which of the four a kept check is still being paid for.
//!
//! # The two halves
//!
//! Section 7.7 asks for the pass and the condition to be separate things, and they are. What is in
//! this file is a walk: which check runs before which, which pointer was computed from which, and
//! how far apart two addresses are. Nothing here decides whether that is enough. The condition
//! under which a check may go is a rule in `rules/safety.rules`, a solver has to agree with it
//! before this crate finishes building, and `crate::rules::safety` is the table it compiles into.
//!
//! The split is worth the trouble because the two halves fail differently. A walk that gets the
//! context wrong is a bug of the ordinary kind, and section 14.3's differential check accounting,
//! which runs the instrumented program with every check and again with the discharged ones gone,
//! is what looks for it. A removal condition that is wrong is arithmetic that is off at the ends of
//! the type. It gives the right answer on every test anybody writes and lets one access through in
//! the one case nobody thought of, and nothing observes that until somebody exploits it.
//!
//! # What it establishes and what it asks
//!
//! Walking the dominator tree from the entry, the pass carries a set of facts. A `check_bounds`
//! that stays is a fact, because a check that passes says the bytes it was about lie inside one
//! storage instance, and a check that fails does not return. A fact is remembered as the pointer's
//! base and the constant offset from it, which is what a chain of `ptr_add` over constants comes
//! to, plus how many bytes the access covers.
//!
//! At the next `check_bounds`, the pointer is normalized the same way. When a fact shares its base,
//! the distance between the two accesses is the difference of the two offsets, and that is a number
//! this pass has rather than a claim it makes: both addresses are the same value plus a constant.
//! The question of whether the later bytes are inside the earlier ones is then handed to the table,
//! which answers it in sixty four bit arithmetic rather than in the offsets, and the check goes
//! only if the answer is yes.
//!
//! A check whose extent is an operand is left out of all of this, in both directions. Section 7.4's
//! hoisted check covers as many bytes as its loop runs times, and every range compared here is a
//! pair of numbers, so such a check is neither read as a fact nor asked about. Reading its payload
//! would be worse than skipping it, since the size there is one element of the walk rather than the
//! range the check is about, and a fact recorded from it would be smaller than the truth in one
//! direction and a question asked from it smaller in the other.
//!
//! The capability operand has to be the `cap_of` of the check's own pointer, which is the shape
//! `rucc-safety` emits and the shape the argument needs. The check being removed asks whether its
//! bytes are inside the instance that owns its own pointer, its pointer is inside the range the
//! earlier check established, and that range is inside one instance, so the answer is yes. A check
//! whose capability came from somewhere else is asking about a different instance and is left
//! alone. Nothing is required of the earlier check's capability, because all that is used of it is
//! that the check passed, and a check that passed put its bytes inside one instance whatever
//! capability it named.
//!
//! # The conjunct that is not about bytes
//!
//! A `check_bounds` tests two things, because document 06 section 6.3 put the access alignment on
//! it rather than in a check of its own: that the bytes are inside one instance, and that the
//! address starts where an access of that alignment may start. Everything above is about the
//! first. A check that goes takes the second away with it, so nothing goes until something has
//! answered it, which is `aligned` below and which reads the object the address came from and the
//! steps taken from it. An access that assumes nothing about where it starts has nothing to
//! answer, and a member of a packed record is exactly that.
//!
//! A global is settled elsewhere and arrives as [`Flags::ALIGNED`], for the reason
//! [`Flags::STATIC`] beside it exists: how aligned a global is lives on the module and a pass is
//! given a function. Without that the gate would cost seventeen times what it costs, which is the
//! measurement in the changelog and is what says the flag earns its bit.
//!
//! What is left is a pointer this function was handed, one it loaded out of memory, and one a call
//! gave back, and for those the answer is the same one the bytes get: a check that stays is a check
//! that runs, and a check that runs tests the alignment and refuses when it does not hold. So the
//! first access through a pointer somebody handed in proves for nothing what every later access
//! through the same value needs, and `Scope::aligns` carries it.
//!
//! That fact is easier to carry than a range and it is worth saying why, because the section below
//! spends a page arguing about what a call does to a range. A range is about storage and storage
//! can be freed and handed back out smaller. An alignment is about the number in the value, and
//! nothing in a function changes the number an SSA value holds, so it crosses a call, it crosses
//! inline assembly and it crosses a `meta_end`. Dominance is the only thing that bounds it.
//!
//! What is still not answered is counted rather than argued about, the same as everything else
//! here, so `-fopt-info-missed` says what the rest of the `!aligned` fact of section 6.2.4 would be
//! worth. On the SQLite amalgamation that row is 6046 checks at 1178 sites, down from 10729 at 1413
//! once a check's own answer is carried, and the checks in the assembly went from 28473 to 23790.
//!
//! # The fact nobody had to check for
//!
//! Section 7.2 lists four sources of a discharge and puts the frontend first, because the majority
//! of accesses in real C are to a local or a global at a constant offset and the bounds of either
//! are not something anybody has to find out. An `alloca` of a fixed size makes one storage
//! instance of that many bytes and says so in its payload, so the range from its address to that
//! many further along is inside one instance for exactly the reason a passing `check_bounds` says
//! its own range is. When the address a check is about normalizes to such an `alloca`, that range
//! is the fact, and the question put to the table is the same question with the same rule
//! answering it.
//!
//! Two things make it worth more than a fact a check established. It is there before anything has
//! run, so the first access to a local is discharged rather than only the second. And no call takes
//! it away: a callee cannot free a frame slot, whatever it does to whatever the slot points at, so
//! this fact is asked separately rather than kept in the set the walk throws away at the first call
//! it cannot see through.
//!
//! Only the fixed size form. A variable length array is an `alloca` with an operand and a payload
//! whose size field reads zero, and reading it anyway would discharge every check in the array.
//!
//! A global is the same fact about the other half of section 7.2's sentence, and it arrives here
//! differently for one reason: how big a global is lives on the module and this pass is given one
//! function. So `crate::extents` works it out over the module before the pipeline starts, asks the
//! same rule, and writes the answer onto the check as [`Flags::STATIC`], which is what
//! `crate::nofree` does with what a call reaches and for the same reason. What is read here is what
//! the IR says, the same way the pass reads an opcode.
//!
//! It answers a lifetime check as well as a bounds check, which a local does not. What a local
//! gives is an extent, and how long it stays alive is the block it was declared in, which is a
//! question this pass has nothing to say about. A global has static storage duration and is alive
//! wherever the question is asked.
//!
//! # The walk that stops at a step it cannot read
//!
//! Everything above needs the address to be a base and a constant, and an array index is not a
//! constant. The walk stops at the first `ptr_add` whose step is a value, and what comes out is a
//! fact about a base whose size nobody knows, which answers nothing.
//!
//! Section 7.2's third source is what gets past it. Document 10's ranges know something about the
//! step even though it is not a number: an index the program has already tested against a length,
//! or one whose low bits are all that is used, is bounded. So the walk carries on, adding the low
//! end of the step's range to the offset and the width of the range to the size, and what it ends
//! up with is the range of addresses the access can land in.
//!
//! Whether an object holding all of that range holds the one address the access actually uses is
//! its own rule, `reached.i64`, which leaves the distance opaque so that one answer covers every
//! value the step could take. It is a rule of its own rather than the containment rule asked about
//! the far end of the range, and the reason is section 7.7's: turning a range of addresses into one
//! containment question is arithmetic on the thing being proved, and a pass doing that quietly is
//! what the split between the walk and the rule exists to stop.
//!
//! What the range is asked of is the list above and not a shorter one: the local an `alloca`
//! declares, the object an allocator made where the program has tested it, and the ranges checks
//! that already ran established. The allocation was missing from that list until tamnd/rucc#880,
//! which is what left a loop walking an index into its own `malloc` with every check it started
//! with however plainly the call said how many bytes it made.
//!
//! The range is only ever asked with and never recorded. What a check proves when it runs is that
//! the address the program used was inside the object, and nothing at all about the rest of a
//! range this pass made up around it. So a check discharged this way records the narrow fact, the
//! bytes the access really wanted, which is the thing that was proved and is what a second check
//! of the same bytes is answered by.
//!
//! The ranges are built only for a function that has a walk by a value in it, because they cost a
//! copy of the control flow graph and a function without one would never ask them anything.
//!
//! # The lifetime half, and what it borrows from the other one
//!
//! A `check_live` that stays is a fact too, and a smaller one than it looks: it says the storage
//! instance holding its own address is alive, and it says nothing about the address four bytes
//! along, because that address might be in a different instance. On its own that fact discharges
//! only a second lifetime check of the very same address, and the shape `rucc-safety` emits is a
//! lifetime check per field rather than per object, so on its own it would almost never fire.
//!
//! What makes it fire is the bounds fact sitting next to it. A `check_bounds` that passed put its
//! whole range inside one instance, so if the lifetime check's address is in that range, the
//! instance that was found alive is the instance the whole range is in, and the whole range is
//! alive. So a lifetime fact is recorded as the widest checked range containing its address, and a
//! later lifetime check is asked about as a single byte. The question of whether that byte is in
//! that range is the same question the bounds half asks, put to the same rule.
//!
//! The order the two arrive in is what makes this work rather than a coincidence to be careful
//! about: `rucc-safety` emits the bounds check first and the lifetime check second, so the range is
//! established by the time there is a lifetime fact to widen. A lifetime check that arrives with no
//! range around it keeps the narrow fact, which is correct and worth little.
//!
//! # The derivation half, which is one question rather than two
//!
//! `rucc-safety` puts a `check_deriv` after every `ptr_add` off a pointer, and what it asks is not
//! about a range at all: it asks whether the pointer that came out is still in the storage instance
//! the pointer that went in belongs to. The runtime has some slack in it for a pointer that walked
//! exactly off either end, and none of that slack is used here, because the case this pass answers
//! is the one where both ends are plainly inside something.
//!
//! What answers it is one fact holding both ends. A `check_bounds` that passed put its whole range
//! inside one instance, so if the address that went in and the address that came out are both in
//! that range, the second is in the instance the first belongs to, which is the question. It has to
//! be one fact and not one for each end: two facts saying two addresses are each inside some
//! instance say nothing about whether it is the same instance, and that is the only thing being
//! asked. A local is a fact of exactly this shape and is asked the same way.
//!
//! Both ends are asked about as a single byte, the way a lifetime check is, and for the same reason.
//! Nothing here is claiming anything about how many bytes are readable at either address.
//!
//! A `check_deriv` that stays leaves no fact behind. What it establishes is that two addresses share
//! an instance, which is not a range of bytes and does not fit in what this walk carries, and the
//! `covered.i64` rule has nothing to say about it. Recording it would mean a second kind of fact and
//! a second rule, and the pointer it is about nearly always gets a `check_bounds` of its own a few
//! instructions later that establishes the range properly.
//!
//! # What a call throws away, and which calls throw away nothing
//!
//! Section 7.3 says nothing kills a bounds fact except a redefinition of the capability, which in
//! SSA is never. This pass is stricter than that about the lifetime half and not about the bounds
//! half: a call, or anything else this pass cannot see through, drops every lifetime fact it is
//! carrying, and a call keeps the bounds facts and marks them as having had one run over them.
//!
//! The case a call is about is a `free` and then an allocation of something smaller at the same
//! address. The range established before the call is no longer inside one instance after it, and
//! what document 07 leaves that to is the lifetime judgement rather than this one. The next section
//! is the argument that the lifetime judgement is now enough, and what a mark on a fact buys.
//!
//! A `meta_end` and a `meta_transfer` drop both halves, and so does inline assembly. Nothing emits
//! either of the first two yet, so most of this costs nothing today and is the difference between
//! conservative and wrong on the day the instrumentation starts ending lifetimes. `crate::nofree`
//! treats them the same way. Assembly is with them rather than with the calls because the argument
//! below rests on the runtime owning the planes, and a block of assembly can write over one without
//! the runtime having been asked.
//!
//! The two facts nobody had to check for go across a call untouched, and neither is an exception to
//! the paragraph above because neither is in the set being thrown away. A callee cannot free a
//! frame slot and cannot free a global, so a check the declaration answers is answered on the far
//! side of any call at all.
//!
//! A call that says it reaches nothing which can free is the exception, and it is not this pass
//! being trusting. `crate::nofree` works the answer out over the whole module before the pipeline
//! starts and writes it onto the call site as [`Flags::NOFREE`], because the fact belongs to the
//! callee and a pass is given one function. Reading it here is reading what the IR says, the same
//! way the pass reads an opcode. Nothing else about a call is believed: the lifetime facts still go
//! across an unmarked call, a call through an address, and inline assembly.
//!
//! What the strictness still costs is measured rather than guessed. A check that a fact would have
//! covered if a call had not intervened is counted, so `-fopt-info-missed` says per function what
//! is left to win. On the SQLite amalgamation 3.53.4 at `-O2 -fsafety=detect` that is 3978 bounds
//! checks at 605 sites, 2679 lifetime checks at 596 sites and 2538 derivation checks at 534 sites,
//! against 28473 bounds checks and 20423 lifetime checks that survive the whole pipeline.
//!
//! # Why keeping the bounds half is allowed
//!
//! The eighth box of tamnd/rucc#1241 asked this pass to stop throwing the bounds facts away, on the
//! grounds that the lifetime check at the access compares a version and will refuse the case the
//! paragraph above is about. It is done and the reason belongs here rather than in the issue,
//! because what it turns on is what this file does.
//!
//! The claim is that a bounds fact may cross a call when every access that then uses it is guarded
//! by a lifetime check that refuses once the instance has changed. Three things have to hold for
//! that. The first two hold since the runtime started reading the version a recovery found and
//! started moving the aux with the bytes at a copy, and the third is what `Known::since` is for.
//!
//! The first holds. `rucc_safety::check` emits the two checks as a pair off one capability, so the
//! only question is whether this pass took the lifetime half out again, and there are five ways it
//! does. `REMOVED_LIVE_STATIC` is a global, `REMOVED_LIVE_LOCAL` is a frame slot of this
//! function, and `REMOVED_LIVE_HANDED` is an object every caller hands in, which `crate::params`
//! only ever says of a caller's frame slot or of a global this module vouches for. None of those
//! three can be freed by anybody, so a bounds fact about one does not go stale in the first place.
//! `REMOVED_LIVE` comes out of `Scope::alive`, which is thrown away at the call, so it cannot
//! fire on the far side of one. `REMOVED_LIVE_RANGE` is the frame slot rule or `Scope::alive`
//! widened, so it is those two again. On the far side of a call the lifetime check is therefore
//! either still standing or about an object no callee can end.
//!
//! The second holds and did not when this section was first written. A lifetime check that is still
//! standing refuses a changed instance only when the version the capability carries is about the
//! pointer the access went through, and `rucc_safe_rt::check`'s `stale` used to take the weaker
//! reading for every recovered capability, which is every pointer a `cap_of` could not trace back to
//! an allocator call. A recovery that walked the planes answers now, so a pointer a function was
//! handed is covered. A pointer it loaded out of memory is covered too, and that took a second
//! thing: the capability for one of those comes out of the aux slot beside the word, a slot holds a
//! displacement from the pointer it was written beside rather than an address, and a `memcpy` used
//! to move the word and leave the slot. `rucc_safe_rt::check::relocate` moves the aux across at
//! every copy a wrapper interposes, which is what tamnd/rucc#1148 wanted. What is left uncovered is
//! a pointer stored by code this compiler did not build, and an object a foreign writer has touched
//! is the case `rucc_safe_rt::layout::Meta::HANDED` already stands apart.
//!
//! The third is a hazard the relaxation introduces rather than one it inherits, and it is what the
//! mark is for. A lifetime fact is widened by `widened` out of the bounds facts standing at the
//! time, so bounds facts that survive a call would otherwise widen lifetime facts established after
//! it. A bounds fact saying a range is inside one instance, taken before a `free` and an allocation
//! of something smaller at the same address, would then widen a lifetime check that passed on the
//! new instance into a claim that the whole of the old range is alive, and the far end of that
//! range is storage the new instance does not own. So `Known::since` marks where the facts a call
//! has run over end, `widened` reads only the ones after it, and the marked ones answer a bounds
//! check and nothing else.
//!
//! The derivation rule reads only the unmarked ones too, and that one is caution rather than
//! necessity. What a `check_deriv` asks is whether two addresses share an instance, and a marked
//! fact answers the question it was established for rather than that one. Letting it read them
//! would still refuse every case that matters, because the access through a pointer it wrongly let
//! through has a lifetime check of its own that the version compare refuses, but the report would
//! arrive at the access as judgement J1 instead of at the derivation as J2, and a derivation
//! nothing is ever read through would go unreported. So it reads the unmarked ones and the cost is
//! counted in the `PAST_A_CALL_DERIV` row.
//!
//! What it comes to, on the SQLite amalgamation 3.53.4 at `-O2 -fsafety=detect`, before against
//! after. 414 bounds checks go, which is 28887 down to 28473, and the assembly shrinks by 107
//! kilobytes. 131 derivation checks arrive, 22754 up to 22885, and they are the other half of the
//! paragraph above: a bounds check that is removed establishes nothing, so a check the marked fact
//! answered no longer pushes a fact of its own, and the derivation rule was reading that. Lifetime
//! checks do not move at all, which is the point. Net it is 283 fewer checks in the object.
//!
//! Why it is only 414 is worth reading, because it says where the next piece of work is and it is
//! not here. A bounds check has to pass the alignment guard before any rule may take it out, and
//! the guard is only asked once a rule has answered, so the row counting what it costs only counts
//! checks something was ready to remove. That row goes from 8464 checks to 10729. Those 2265 are
//! bounds checks a fact that crossed a call now answers and the alignment guard then keeps anyway,
//! and they are five times the number that got out. The alignment question is `settles` and
//! `aligned` in this file, and it is the binding constraint on the bounds half now rather than the
//! call is.
