Updates to Hoopl in the last week
=================================
Interface changes
-----------------
The type of AGraph is now abstract.
It is now recommended to create AGraphs with just three functions:
<*> concatenation
|*><*| splicing at a closed point
addBlocks add C/C blocks out of line
There are new utility functions in modules Util and XUtil, all
exported by Compiler.Hoopl. Here's a selection:
-- | A utility function so that a transfer function for a first
-- node can be given just a fact; we handle the lookup. This
-- function is planned to be made obsolete by changes in the dataflow
-- interface.
firstXfer :: Edges n => (n C O -> f -> f) -> (n C O -> FactBase f -> f)
firstXfer xfer n fb = xfer n $ fromJust $ lookupFact fb $ entryLabel n
-- | This utility function handles a common case in which a transfer function
-- produces a single fact out of a last node, which is then distributed
-- over the outgoing edges.
distributeXfer :: Edges n => (n O C -> f -> f) -> (n O C -> f -> FactBase f)
distributeXfer xfer n f = mkFactBase [ (l, xfer n f) | l <- successors n ]
-- | This utility function handles a common case in which a transfer function
-- for a last node takes the incoming fact unchanged and simply distributes
-- that fact over the outgoing edges.
distributeFact :: Edges n => n O C -> f -> FactBase f
-- | Function 'graphMapBlocks' enables a change of representation of blocks,
-- nodes, or both. It lifts a polymorphic block transform into a polymorphic
-- graph transform. When the block representation stabilizes, a similar
-- function should be provided for blocks.
graphMapBlocks :: forall block n block' n' e x .
(forall e x . block n e x -> block' n' e x)
-> (Graph' block n e x -> Graph' block' n' e x)
postorder_dfs :: Edges (block n) => Graph' block n O x -> [block n C C]
There are quite a few other variations related to depth-first traversal.
There is a new module Compiler.Hoopl.Pointed, which uses GADTs to
enable you to add a Top or Bot element to a lattice, or both, all
using the same type. (Types 'WithBot' and 'WithTop' in XUtil,
exported by Compiler.Hoopl, do similar jobs, but I think they are
inferior. Your opinion is solicited.)
I added a function showGraph to print Graphs. Right now it requires a
polymorphic node-showing function as argument. When we change the
Block representation we may get enough static type information that we
can simply have an instance declaration for
instance (Show n C O, Show n O O, Show n O C) => Show (Graph n e x)
At present, I don't see how to achieve such a declaration.
John added new functions 'debugFwdJoins' and 'debugBwdJoins' to extend
passes with debugging information.
We added primed versions of the analyzeAndRewrite functions, which
operate on Graph, not Body. Recommended, at least for first-timers.
Not all maps keyed by Label are FactBases, so there is now a new set
of names of functions to manipulate LabelMaps that do not contain
dataflow facts.
Implementation changes
----------------------
Split pass and rewrite-function combinators into Compiler.Hoopl.Combinators.
Changed order of blocks for forward and backward analysis.
These changes have not been tested, because we don't have a true
regression suite yet.
Graph and Body types now have more polymorphic variants Graph' and Body'.
Lots of experiments with zippers.
Changes ahead
-------------
ForwardTransfer will become an abstract type, and clients will have
two ways to create ForwardTransfers: as now, with a single,
polymorphic transfer function; or with a triple of monomorphic
transfer functions. The implementation will use monomorphic
functions, which will enable more useful combinators on passes,
including adding more debugging information and enabling us to combine
passes.
Perhaps we should provide splicing and 'addBlocks' on Graph?
Change of block representation to have three monomorphic unit
constructors and one polymorphic concatenation constructor.
Graph body to be represented by a finite map; add functions to check
for duplicate labels.
3.7.12.1
- Added a bunch of zipper experiments.
- Existing clients should not be affected.
3.7.12.0
- More expressive debugging support
- retract arfGraph and normalization; export analyzeAndRewriterFwd'
3.7.11.1
- Expose arfGraph and normalization functions
3.7.11.0
- Debugging support
3.7.8.0
- Rationalized AGraph splicing functions.
3.7.7.0
- Restrict clients so they see much less, including hiding
the value constructors for Body.
