Interface SSAPiNodePolicy

All Known Implementing Classes:

CompoundPiPolicy, InstanceOfPiPolicy, NullTestPiPolicy

public interface SSAPiNodePolicy

The SSABuilder consults this as an oracle to decide how to insert SSAPiInstructions

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
com.ibm.wala.util.collections.Pair<Integer,SSAInstruction>	getPi(SSAAbstractInvokeInstruction call, SymbolTable symbolTable) Do we need to introduce a new name for some value immediately after a call? If so, returns a pair consisting of the value number needing renaming, and the instruction which should be recorded as the cause of the pi instruction
com.ibm.wala.util.collections.Pair<Integer,SSAInstruction>	getPi(SSAConditionalBranchInstruction cond, SSAInstruction def1, SSAInstruction def2, SymbolTable symbolTable) Do we need to introduce a new name for some value after deciding on an outcome for a conditional branch instruction? If so, returns a pair consisting of the value number needing renaming, and the instruction which should be recorded as the cause of the pi instruction

Method Detail

getPi

com.ibm.wala.util.collections.Pair<Integer,SSAInstruction> getPi(SSAAbstractInvokeInstruction call,
                                                               SymbolTable symbolTable)

Do we need to introduce a new name for some value immediately after a call? If so, returns a pair consisting of the value number needing renaming, and the instruction which should be recorded as the cause of the pi instruction

Parameters:

call - the call instruction in question

symbolTable - current state of the symbol table for the IR under construction

Returns:

description of the necessary pi instruction, or null if no pi instruction is needed.

getPi

com.ibm.wala.util.collections.Pair<Integer,SSAInstruction> getPi(SSAConditionalBranchInstruction cond,
                                                               SSAInstruction def1,
                                                               SSAInstruction def2,
                                                               SymbolTable symbolTable)

Do we need to introduce a new name for some value after deciding on an outcome for a conditional branch instruction? If so, returns a pair consisting of the value number needing renaming, and the instruction which should be recorded as the cause of the pi instruction

Parameters:

cond - the conditional branch instruction in question

def1 - the SSAInstruction that defs cond.getUse(0), or null if none

def2 - the SSAInstruction that defs cond.getUse(1), or null if none

symbolTable - current state of the symbol table for the IR under construction

Returns:

description of the necessary pi instruction, or null if no pi instruction is needed.
