Constant Propagation Example 3(3) Preserving the data dependency means letting the hardware know about them. That can be done in different ways for different processors. One way is to insert instructions so that there will be a chain of dependences for the processor pipeline to see. Compilers thus must preserve such dependences in the complete program! Writing optimizing compilers C all of a sudden became twice as interesting. There is, however, a very simple first version implementation: treat all memory_order_consume as memory_order_acquire which automatically will order the memory accesses. Jonas Skeppstedt (js@cs.lth.se) Lecture 6 2013 44 / 70
One More Data Dependency a = atomic_load(p, memory_order_consume); atomic_store(q, a, memory_order_relaxed); atomic_store(r, b, memory_order_relaxed); Since there is no data dependency between the consume and the second store, they are not ordered. As programmers we need to be very careful about what we expect to be ordered! Jonas Skeppstedt (js@cs.lth.se) Lecture 6 2013 45 / 70
