The presence of !prof metadata with counter name set to // 'synthesized_function_entry_count' indicate that the value of the counter is // an estimation of the likely execution count of the function. This transform // is applied only in non PGO mode as functions get 'real' profile-based // function entry counts in the PGO mode. // // The transformation works by first assigning some initial values to the entry // counts of all functions and then doing a top-down traversal of the // callgraph-scc to propagate the counts. For each function the set of callsites // and their relative block frequency is gathered. The relative block frequency // multiplied by the entry count of the caller and added to the callee's entry // count. For non-trivial SCCs, the new counts are computed from the previous // counts and updated in one shot. // //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// #include "llvm/Transforms/IPO/SyntheticCountsPropagation.h" #include "llvm/Analysis/BlockFrequencyInfo.h" #include "llvm/Analysis/CallGraph.h" #include "llvm/Analysis/SyntheticCountsUtils.h" #include "llvm/IR/Function.h" #include "llvm/IR/Instructions.h" #include "llvm/IR/Module.h" #include "llvm/Support/CommandLine.h" using namespace llvm; using Scaled64 = ScaledNumber; using ProfileCount = Function::ProfileCount; #define DEBUG_TYPE "synthetic-counts-propagation" namespace llvm { cl::opt InitialSyntheticCount("initial-synthetic-count", cl::Hidden, cl::init(10), cl::desc("Initial value of synthetic entry count")); } // namespace llvm /// Initial synthetic count assigned to inline functions. static cl::opt InlineSyntheticCount( "inline-synthetic-count", cl::Hidden, cl::init(15), cl::desc("Initial synthetic entry count for inline functions.")); /// Initial synthetic count assigned to cold functions. static cl::opt ColdSyntheticCount( "cold-synthetic-count", cl::Hidden, cl::init(5), cl::desc("Initial synthetic entry count for cold functions.")); // Assign initial synthetic entry counts to functions. static void initializeCounts(Module &M, function_ref SetCount) { auto MayHaveIndirectCalls = [](Function &F) { for (auto *U : F.users()) { if (!isa(U) && !isa(U)) return true; } return false; }; for (Function &F : M) { uint64_t InitialCount = InitialSyntheticCount; if (F.isDeclaration()) continue; if (F.hasFnAttribute(Attribute::AlwaysInline) || F.hasFnAttribute(Attribute::InlineHint)) { // Use a higher value for inline functions to account for the fact that // these are usually beneficial to inline.
