inline_small_functions speedup
After inlining A into B, inline_small_functions updates the information for (most) callees and callers of the new B: update_callee_keys (&edge_heap, where, updated_nodes); [...] /* Our profitability metric can depend on local properties such as number of inlinable calls and size of the function body. After inlining these properties might change for the function we inlined into (since it's body size changed) and for the functions called by function we inlined (since number of it inlinable callers might change). */ update_caller_keys (&edge_heap, where, updated_nodes, NULL); These functions in turn call can_inline_edge_p for most of the associated edges: if (can_inline_edge_p (edge, false) && want_inline_small_function_p (edge, false)) update_edge_key (heap, edge); can_inline_edge_p indirectly calls estimate_calls_size_and_time on the caller node, which seems to recursively process all callee edges rooted at the node. It looks from this like the algorithm can be at least quadratic in the worst case. Maybe there's something we can do to make can_inline_edge_p cheaper, but since neither of these two calls is responsible for reporting an inline failure reason, it seems cheaper to test want_inline_small_function_p first, so that we don't calculate an estimate for something that we already know isn't a "small function". I think the only change needed to make that work is to check for CIF_FINAL_ERROR in want_inline_small_function_p; at the moment we rely on can_inline_edge_p to make that check. This cuts the time to build optabs.ii by over 4% with an --enable-checking=release compiler on x86_64-linux-gnu. I've seen more dramatic wins on aarch64-linux-gnu due to the NUM_POLY_INT_COEFFS==2 thing. The patch doesn't affect the output code. 2018-01-13 Richard Sandiford <richard.sandiford@linaro.org> gcc/ * ipa-inline.c (want_inline_small_function_p): Return false if inlining has already failed with CIF_FINAL_ERROR. (update_caller_keys): Call want_inline_small_function_p before can_inline_edge_p. (update_callee_keys): Likewise. From-SVN: r256658
