Interesting idea. Can you give some example performance numbers with and without this change, please? Both memory consumption and duration would be good, if possible.
One minor point: you seem to have added a lot of comments. Could I ask your motivation for doing so?

I think we can completely remove this since the callers of this function ensure that.
We attempted to enable this feature ( Kernel binary is one of our larger binaries, where we encounter over 200,000 LiveElements (inlined functions). This is the size of our kernel binary.
Checking every inlined function for every address lookup is the primary source of the high cost. Here are the time measurements: Default (No flag)
Linear search (
Optimized maps (
We have not observed this radical slowdown in smaller binaries, and the issue only manifests in a relatively large binary.
I added extensive comments because the original authors are no longer active in this area. My goal was to make the code self-explanatory for any future developers working on related features. I am, however, happy to remove any comments you think are redundant. |

Thanks. Your numbers are certainly compelling. Is it possible to get peak memory usage too? I imagine the cost is small comparatively, but would be interesting to see them, since you'll be increasing the usage with this change (the age old memory versus speed trade-off).
I've started reviewing this, but will need to come back to finish off. I've left a couple of comments for you to get on with.

Would a SmallSet
be more appropriate? I imagine the norm would be for only a small number of columns to be needed at any one time.

The purpose of using std::set
is to ensure that *FreeCols.begin()
always retrieves the smallest available column index (ColIdx=1 before ColIdx=3) for deterministic output ordering.
When ActiveCols
has space (e.g., size 4, with indices 1 and 3 inactive), the column assignment needs to be deterministic and visually sequential.
With std::set<unsigned> FreeCols
, the process is:
*FreeCols.begin()
returns 1 (the smallest index), as the set is sorted.- The next variable is assigned Column 1.
Since llvm::SmallSet
is unsorted, it doesn't guarantee this behavior. We need to ensure the display always looks clean and columns are reused sequentially (0, 1, 2, 3,..) when --debug-vars
option is enabled.

I suspect you're better off with one of LLVM's map types, based on the discussion at https://llvm.org/docs/ProgrammersManual.html#other-map-like-container-options.
