[PATCH v6 10/15] insure that all OP_PUSHs are just before their OP_CALL

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



These OP_PUSH doesn't really operate on a stack, they're
there just to give the args to the call. As such, we want
to have all of them just before their corresponding OP_CALL.

Currently, it's not the case as we push the args as soon as
they're linearized. So code like:
	int foo(int a, int b, int c) { return f(a, f(b, c)); }
is linearized as something like:
	foo:
		push	%arg1
		push	%arg2
		push	%arg3
		call	%r1 <- f
		push	%r1
		call	%r2 <- f
		ret	%r2
while we want something like:
	foo:
		push	%arg2
		push	%arg3
		call	%r1 <- f
		push	%arg1
		push	%r1
		call	%r2 <- f
		ret	%r2

Fix this by first linearizing all the arguments and only then
adding the OP_PUSH instructions instead of pushing each arg
as soon as it is linearized.

Note: this is purely for the readability of the generated code,
      the push instructions being anyway linked by their
      respective OP_CALL.
