In gcc 4.6.0, The part of dump (*.ckdd) finding the dependency using Banerjee's Solver for the program | int a[256]; | int main () | { | int i; | for (i=0; i<200; i++) | a[i+21] = a[i*2] + 2; | } gives, chrec_a = {0, +, 2}_1 chrec_b = {21, +, 1}_1 and the overlap_iterations are : overlap_iterations_a = [11 + 1 * x_1] overlap_iterations_b = [1 + 2 * x_1] What I understood was that overlap_iterations give the solution to the Diophantine equation. In that light, is this solution not incorrect? Or there is something wrong with my understanding? Also, what does last_conflict hold? The last iteration number of source that causes conflict, or the total number of iterations that cause conflict? In case of variable dependence distance, even the last_conflict seems to have wrong value. In this example, it is 63. Why? -- With regards, Prashant Singh Rawat http://www.cse.iitb.ac.in/~prashantr
