To time GCC preprocessing speed without output, use:
 | 
						|
   "time gcc -MM file"
 | 
						|
This is similar to -Eonly.

TODO: File Manager Speedup:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 We currently do a lot of stat'ing for files that don't exist, particularly
 | 
						|
 when lots of -I paths exist (e.g. see the <iostream> example, check for
 | 
						|
 failures in stat in FileManager::getFile).  It would be far better to make
 | 
						|
 the following changes:
 | 
						|
   1. FileEntry contains a sys::Path instead of a std::string for Name.
 | 
						|
   2. sys::Path contains timestamp and size, lazily computed.  Eliminate from
 | 
						|
      FileEntry.
 | 
						|
   3. File UIDs are created on request, not when files are opened.
 | 
						|
 These changes make it possible to efficiently have FileEntry objects for
 | 
						|
 files that exist on the file system, but have not been used yet.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 Once this is done:
 | 
						|
   1. DirectoryEntry gets a boolean value "has read entries".  When false, not
 | 
						|
      all entries in the directory are in the file mgr, when true, they are.
 | 
						|
   2. Instead of stat'ing the file in FileManager::getFile, check to see if
 | 
						|
      the dir has been read.  If so, fail immediately, if not, read the dir,
 | 
						|
      then retry.
 | 
						|
   3. Reading the dir uses the getdirentries syscall, creating a FileEntry
 | 
						|
      for all files found.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
// Specifying targets:  -triple and -arch
 | 
						|
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The clang supports "-triple" and "-arch" options. At most one -triple and one
 | 
						|
-arch option may be specified.  Both are optional.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The "selection of target" behavior is defined as follows:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
(1) If the user does not specify -triple, we default to the host triple.
 | 
						|
(2) If the user specifies a -arch, that overrides the arch in the host or
 | 
						|
    specified triple.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
verifyInputConstraint and verifyOutputConstraint should not return bool.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Instead we should return something like:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
enum VerifyConstraintResult {
 | 
						|
  Valid,
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  // Output only
 | 
						|
  OutputOperandConstraintLacksEqualsCharacter,
 | 
						|
  MatchingConstraintNotValidInOutputOperand,
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  // Input only
 | 
						|
  InputOperandConstraintContainsEqualsCharacter,
 | 
						|
  MatchingConstraintReferencesInvalidOperandNumber,
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  // Both
 | 
						|
  PercentConstraintUsedWithLastOperand
 | 
						|
};
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
 |

 | 
						|
Blocks should not capture variables that are only used in dead code.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The rule that we came up with is that blocks are required to capture
 | 
						|
variables if they're referenced in evaluated code, even if that code
 | 
						|
doesn't actually rely on the value of the captured variable.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For example, this requires a capture:
 | 
						|
  (void) var;
 | 
						|
But this does not:
 | 
						|
  if (false) puts(var);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Summary of <rdar://problem/9851835>: if we implement this, we should
 | 
						|
warn about non-POD variables that are referenced but not captured, but
 | 
						|
only if the non-reachability is not due to macro or template
 | 
						|
metaprogramming.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
We can still apply a modified version of the constructor/destructor
 | 
						|
delegation optimization in cases of virtual inheritance where:
 | 
						|
  - there is no function-try-block,
 | 
						|
  - the constructor signature is not variadic, and
 | 
						|
  - the parameter variables can safely be copied and repassed
 | 
						|
    to the base constructor because either
 | 
						|
    - they have not had their addresses taken by the vbase initializers or
 | 
						|
    - they were passed indirectly.
 | 
						|
 |
