Subject: java aliasing rules
Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2002 11:43:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200203271143.aa05958@gremlin-relay.ics.uci.edu> (raw)
Given this code:
class first { int i; char a; char f1; char f2; double d;};
class second { char b; char f2; int f3;};
public class t
{
public void f (first ps1, second ps2)
{
ps1.f1++;
ps2.f2++;
ps1.f1++;
ps2.f2++;
}
}
can it be assumed that given that "first" and "second" are
incompatible then ps1.f1 and ps2.f2 don't alias and we can generate
code like the following: (SPARC assembly)
!#PROLOGUE# 0
!#PROLOGUE# 1
lduh [%o1+14], %o0
lduh [%o2+10], %o3
add %o0, 2, %o0
add %o3, 2, %o3
sth %o0, [%o1+14]
retl
sth %o3, [%o2+10]
instead of what is generated now:
!#PROLOGUE# 0
!#PROLOGUE# 1
lduh [%o1+14], %o3
add %o3, 1, %o3
sth %o3, [%o1+14]
lduh [%o2+10], %o0
add %o0, 1, %o0
sth %o0, [%o2+10]
lduh [%o1+14], %o3
add %o3, 1, %o3
sth %o3, [%o1+14]
lduh [%o2+10], %o0
add %o0, 1, %o0
retl
sth %o0, [%o2+10]
The more general question is if 2 COMPONENT_REFs that refer to classes
that are in conflicting alias sets (ie alias_sets_conflict_p) alias in
java. I have a hunch that this might be true, but I don't know enough
about java to be sure. If the above is not true, is there a
restricted case when it is true?
(for the curious this is related to the patch at
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2002-03/msg00576.html that is not
totally correct for C, but I have a hunch that it might be OK for
java, if that is the case I will change the patch to be language
specific).
