9 // This file adds DWARF discriminators to the IR. Path discriminators are
10 // used to decide what CFG path was taken inside sub-graphs whose instructions
11 // share the same line and column number information.
12 //
13 // The main user of this is the sample profiler. Instruction samples are
14 // mapped to line number information. Since a single line may be spread
15 // out over several basic blocks, discriminators add more precise location
16 // for the samples.
17 //
18 // For example,
19 //
20 // 1 #define ASSERT(P)
21 // 2 if (!(P))
22 // 3 abort()
23 // ...
24 // 100 while (true) {
25 // 101 ASSERT (sum < 0);
26 // 102 ...
27 // 130 }
28 //
29 // when converted to IR, this snippet looks something like:
30 //
31 // while.body: ; preds = %entry, %if.end
32 // %0 = load i32* %sum, align 4, !dbg !15
33 // %cmp = icmp slt i32 %0, 0, !dbg !15
34 // br i1 %cmp, label %if.end, label %if.then, !dbg !15
35 //
36 // if.then: ; preds = %while.body
37 // call void @abort(), !dbg !15
38 // br label %if.end, !dbg !15
39 //
40 // Notice that all the instructions in blocks 'while.body' and 'if.then'
41 // have exactly the same debug information. When this program is sampled
42 // at runtime, the profiler will assume that all these instructions are
43 // equally frequent. This, in turn, will consider the edge while.body->if.then
44 // to be frequently taken (which is incorrect).
45 //
46 // By adding a discriminator value to the instructions in block 'if.then',
47 // we can distinguish instructions at line 101 with discriminator 0 from
48 // the instructions at line 101 with discriminator 1.
