From 935b629448fedc187243bfe88d4149bf30d89c05 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tim Foley Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2019 09:13:03 -0800 Subject: Fix IR emit logic for methods in `struct` types (#791) There was a bug in the logic for emitting initial IR, such that it was neglecting to emit "methods" (member functions) unless they were also referenced by a non-member (global) function, or were needed to satisfy an interface requirement. This would only matter for `import`ed modules, since for non-`import`ed code, anything relevant would be referenced by the entry point so that the problem would never surface. This change fixes the underlying problem by adding a step to the IR lowering pass called `ensureAllDeclsRec` that makes sure that not only global-scope declarations, but also anything nested under a `struct` type gets emitted to the initial IR module. There are also a few unrelated fixes in this PR, which are things I ran into while making the fix: * Deleted support for the (long gone) `IRDeclRef` type in our `slang.natvis` file * Added support for visualizing the value of IR string and integer literals when they appear in the debugger * Fixed IR dumping logic to not skip emitting `struct` and `interface` instructions. Switching those to inherit from `IRType` accidentally affected how they get printed in IR dumps by default. * Fixed up the IR linking logic so that it correctly takes `[export]` decorations into account, so that an exported definition will always be taken over any other (unless the latter is more specialized for the target). I initially implemented this in an attempt to fix the original issue, but found it wasn't a fix for the root cause. It is still a better approach than what was implemented previously, so I'm leaving it in place. --- source/slang/ir.cpp | 16 ++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+) (limited to 'source/slang/ir.cpp') diff --git a/source/slang/ir.cpp b/source/slang/ir.cpp index 8f33034b7..a284e846e 100644 --- a/source/slang/ir.cpp +++ b/source/slang/ir.cpp @@ -3118,6 +3118,22 @@ namespace Slang if(as(inst)) return true; + // We are going to have a general rule that + // a type should be folded into its use site, + // which improves output in most cases, but + // we would like to not apply that rule to + // "nominal" types like `struct`s. + // + switch( inst->op ) + { + case kIROp_StructType: + case kIROp_InterfaceType: + return false; + + default: + break; + } + if(as(inst)) return true; -- cgit v1.2.3
