10 /// This file implements a pass that removes irreducible control flow.
11 /// Irreducible control flow means multiple-entry loops, which this pass
12 /// transforms to have a single entry.
13 ///
14 /// Note that LLVM has a generic pass that lowers irreducible control flow, but
15 /// it linearizes control flow, turning diamonds into two triangles, which is
16 /// both unnecessary and undesirable for WebAssembly.
17 ///
18 /// The big picture: We recursively process each "region", defined as a group
19 /// of blocks with a single entry and no branches back to that entry. A region
20 /// may be the entire function body, or the inner part of a loop, i.e., the
21 /// loop's body without branches back to the loop entry. In each region we fix
22 /// up multi-entry loops by adding a new block that can dispatch to each of the
23 /// loop entries, based on the value of a label "helper" variable, and we
24 /// replace direct branches to the entries with assignments to the label
25 /// variable and a branch to the dispatch block. Then the dispatch block is the
26 /// single entry in the loop containing the previous multiple entries. After
27 /// ensuring all the loops in a region are reducible, we recurse into them. The
28 /// total time complexity of this pass is:
29 ///
30 ///   O(NumBlocks * NumNestedLoops * NumIrreducibleLoops +
31 ///     NumLoops * NumLoops)
32 ///
33 /// This pass is similar to what the Relooper [1] does. Both identify looping
34 /// code that requires multiple entries, and resolve it in a similar way (in
35 /// Relooper terminology, we implement a Multiple shape in a Loop shape). Note
36 /// also that like the Relooper, we implement a "minimal" intervention: we only
37 /// use the "label" helper for the blocks we absolutely must and no others. We
38 /// also prioritize code size and do not duplicate code in order to resolve
39 /// irreducibility. The graph algorithms for finding loops and entries and so
40 /// forth are also similar to the Relooper. The main differences between this
41 /// pass and the Relooper are:
42 ///
43 ///  * We just care about irreducibility, so we just look at loops.
44 ///  * The Relooper emits structured control flow (with ifs etc.), while we
45 ///    emit a CFG.
