◆ castIsValid() [1/2]

bool CastInst::castIsValid	(	Instruction::CastOps	op,
		Type *	SrcTy,
		Type *	DstTy
	)

static

This method can be used to determine if a cast from SrcTy to DstTy using Opcode op is valid or not.

Check that the construction parameters for a CastInst are correct.

Returns: true iff the proposed cast is valid. Determine if a cast is valid without creating one.

This could be broken out into the separate constructors but it is useful to have it in one place and to eliminate the redundant code for getting the sizes of the types involved.

static

Provides a way to construct any of the CastInst subclasses using an opcode instead of the subclass's constructor.

The opcode must be in the CastOps category (Instruction::isCast(opcode) returns true). This constructor has insert-before-instruction semantics to automatically insert the new CastInst before InsertBefore (if it is non-null). Construct any of the CastInst subclasses

Parameters

op	The opcode of the cast instruction
S	The value to be casted (operand 0)

static

Create a BitCast, a PtrToInt, or an IntToPTr cast instruction.

If the value is a pointer type and the destination an integer type, creates a PtrToInt cast. If the value is an integer type and the destination a pointer type, creates an IntToPtr cast. Otherwise, creates a bitcast.

	)

static

Determine how a pair of casts can be eliminated, if they can be at all.

This function determines if a pair of casts can be eliminated and what opcode should be used in the elimination.

This is a helper function for both CastInst and ConstantExpr.

Returns: 0 if the CastInst pair can't be eliminated, otherwise returns Instruction::CastOps value for a cast that can replace the pair, casting SrcTy to DstTy. Determine if a cast pair is eliminable

This assumes that there are two instructions like this:

F = firstOpcode SrcTy x to MidTy
S = secondOpcode MidTy F to DstTy The function returns a resultOpcode so these two casts can be replaced with:
Replacement = resultOpcode SrcTy x to DstTy If no such cast is permitted, the function returns 0.

Parameters

firstOp	Opcode of first cast
secondOp	Opcode of second cast
SrcTy	SrcTy of 1st cast
MidTy	DstTy of 1st cast & SrcTy of 2nd cast
DstTy	DstTy of 2nd cast
SrcIntPtrTy	Integer type corresponding to Ptr SrcTy, or null

◆ isNoopCast() [2/2]

bool CastInst::isNoopCast	(	Instruction::CastOps	Opcode,
		Type *	SrcTy,
		Type *	DestTy,
		const DataLayout &	DL
	)

static

A no-op cast is one that can be effected without changing any bits.

This function determines if the CastInst does not require any bits to be changed in order to effect the cast.

It implies that the source and destination types are the same size. The DataLayout argument is to determine the pointer size when examining casts involving Integer and Pointer types. They are no-op casts if the integer is the same size as the pointer. However, pointer size varies with platform. Note that a precondition of this method is that the cast is legal - i.e. the instruction formed with these operands would verify.

Essentially, it identifies cases where no code gen is necessary for the cast, hence the name no-op cast. For example, the following are all no-op casts:

bitcast i32* %x to i8*

bitcast <2 x i32> %x to <4 x i16>

ptrtoint i32* %x to i32 ; on 32-bit plaforms only

Determine if the described cast is a no-op.

Parameters

Opcode	Opcode of cast
SrcTy	SrcTy of cast
DestTy	DstTy of cast
DL	DataLayout to get the Int Ptr type from.
