35 * Support for computing at the basic block level which variables
36 * (virtual GRFs in our case) are live at entry and exit.
38 * See Muchnik's Advanced Compiler Design and Implementation, section
43 * Sets up the use[] and def[] arrays.
45 * The basic-block-level live variable analysis needs to know which
46 * variables get used before they're completely defined, and which
47 * variables are completely defined before they're used.
49 * We independently track each channel of a vec4. This is because we need to
50 * be able to recognize a sequence like:
55 * MUL result.xy tmp.xy e.xy
58 * as having tmp live only across that sequence (assuming it's used nowhere
59 * else), because it's a common pattern. A more conservative approach that
60 * doesn't get tmp marked a deffed in this block will tend to result in

183 * We could expose per-channel live intervals to the consumer based on the
184 * information we computed in vec4_live_variables, except that our only
185 * current user is virtual_grf_interferes(). So we instead union the
186 * per-channel ranges into a per-vgrf range for virtual_grf_start[] and
189 * We could potentially have virtual_grf_interferes() do the test per-channel,
190 * which would let some interesting register allocation occur (particularly on
191 * code-generated GLSL sequences from the Cg compiler which does register
192 * allocation at the GLSL level and thus reuses components of the variable
193 * with distinct lifetimes). But right now the complexity of doing so doesn't
194 * seem worth it, since having virtual_grf_interferes() be cheap is important
195 * for register allocation performance.
