1//! Scalar evolution: how a value changes across the iterations of a loop, and how many
2//! iterations there are.
3//!
4//! Design: `spec/optimizer/07-loops-and-scev.md` sections 7.4 through 7.7. This is the second
5//! half of document 07 and it answers the last two of the four questions section 7.6 says loop
6//! analysis exists for. The first two are in [`crate::loops`].
7//!
8//! # Chains of recurrences, and how much of one
9//!
10//! GCC writes how a value changes as a chain of recurrences, `{base, +, step}`, meaning a value
11//! that is `base` on the first iteration and `step` more on each one after. The representation is
12//! good because it is closed under the operations anyone wants: adding two chrecs of the same
13//! loop adds componentwise, multiplying by something invariant scales both parts, and evaluating
14//! one at a given iteration is arithmetic rather than a special case. That closure is why
15//! `j = 2 * i + 3` is as easy as `i = i + 1`, and pattern matching the second would run out of
16//! road on the first.
17//!
18//! Section 7.4 says what rucc builds and it is a subset: affine chrecs only. A value is
19//! invariant, or `{base, +, step}` with both parts invariant, or unknown. Addition, subtraction,
20//! multiplication by an invariant, shifting by a constant, and extension where the extension
21//! provably does not wrap. Nothing polynomial and nothing mutually recursive. That covers every
22//! induction variable a C programmer writes and every array subscript document 31 could use, and
23//! what it leaves out of GCC's four thousand lines is the part serving Fortran and the polyhedral
24//! framework.
25//!
26//! The one extension past affine is pointer chrecs, because C loops walk pointers and `p = p + 1`
27//! is `i = i + 1` with a scale. A `ptr_add` is addition with the byte offset as the step, which
28//! is the difference between analysing half of real C loops and analysing nearly all of them.
29//!
30//! # Trip counts, and the part that is uncomfortable
31//!
32//! Given an exit that compares an affine chrec against something invariant, solving for the
33//! iteration at which the comparison first fails is arithmetic. What makes it hard is that the
34//! answer is almost always conditional: on the loop being entered at all, and on the induction
35//! variable not wrapping before it gets there. Section 7.5 says a trip count returned without its
36//! assumptions is a miscompilation generator, and that the temptation to return one is strong
37//! because the assumptions are usually true.
38//!
39//! So [`Bound`] carries them and there is no way to read the count without seeing them.
40//! [`Bound::parts`] hands back both, and [`Bound::proven`] hands back the count only when there
41//! is nothing left to prove. A caller that means to emit a runtime check reads the assumptions
42//! and emits it, and a caller that forgets cannot get at the number.
43//!
44//! [`Bound`] and [`Estimate`] are different types on purpose. A bound is used for correctness, an
45//! estimate is used to decide whether a transformation is worth doing, and section 7.5 calls
46//! conflating them a category error that costs correctness. GCC keeps them apart as
47//! `max_loop_iterations` and `estimate_numbers_of_iterations` and the names do not stop anyone.
48//! Different structs do.

58/// How deep the search for a step walks back through arithmetic.
59///
60/// The chain from a header parameter to the value fed back to it is two or three instructions in
61/// anything a person writes, and the walk terminates on its own because SSA has no cycles except
62/// through block parameters. The limit is here so a generated function with a thousand additions

70/// not depend on how long somebody made it.

74///
75/// GCC's `--param avg-loop-niter`, whose default is the same number. It is a guess, so nothing may
76/// rest on it. It reaches [`Estimate`], which is only ever used to decide whether something is
77/// worth doing, and [`crate::split`], which spends it on how far to ask the runtime to look and is
78/// answered with a true count of bytes whatever it asked for.
79pub(crate) const ASSUMED_ITERATIONS: u64 = 10;
80
81/// A value that does not change inside the loop, read as `on + scale * value + offset`.
82///
83/// The `value` is a value defined outside the loop, or `None` when the linear part is a plain
84/// number. Keeping the shape rather than a bare [`Value`] is what lets `j = 2 * i + 3` come out
85/// as `{3, +, 2}` instead of unknown: the base and the step of that chrec are expressions nothing
86/// in the function computes, so a representation that could only name existing values would have
87/// to give up.
88///
89/// The `on` is a second symbol, and it is there for one shape: a pointer plus an index the loop
90/// did not start at zero. `a[i]` with `i` starting at a parameter has a first address of
91/// `a + start * 4`, which is two symbols, and a representation with room for one has to answer
92/// unknown to it. Nothing scales `on` and nothing negates it, because the thing it was added for
93/// is a pointer and a pointer is not something a loop multiplies. It is an [`Anchor`] rather than
94/// a value so that the address of a global can be one of them.
95///
96/// The `read` is the other half of the same shape, since in C that index is an `int` and what
97/// reaches the address is `sext(start)`. It is described rather than named, for the reason on
98/// [`Widening`]. The two together are what let `a[start + i]` be followed, and on the SQLite
99/// amalgamation they take 158 checks and 12 sites off the largest row of loop splitting's census.
100/// See tamnd/rucc#810.
101///
102/// Arithmetic on two of these is refused once the sum would need a third symbol, because
103/// `x + y + z` is not of this shape. That is the boundary of the subset and it is where the answer
104/// becomes unknown rather than wrong.
105///
106/// The fields are private on purpose. Every reader has to go through [`Invariant::plain`], which
107/// hands back the one symbol reading and refuses when there is a pointer in it, or through
108/// [`Invariant::on`], which hands back both halves. A reader that helped itself to `value` and
109/// `scale` would quietly drop the `on` and build an address off the wrong object.

128/// is settled at link time and is the same number everywhere in the program.
129///
130/// The second one is here because of where a `global_addr` sits. [`crate::licm`] gives it a cost of
131/// zero and so never moves it out of a loop, which is the right call: working the address out again
132/// is one instruction and holding it in a register across a loop is a register. But that leaves the
133/// instruction inside the loop, and [`Loops::is_invariant`] answers by where a value is defined, so
134/// `a[i]` on a file scope `a` came out unknown. Describing the address rather than naming a value
135/// is the same move [`Widening`] makes, and it means a reader that wants the address in front of
