Basic block.

Basic block is piece of code, that has single entry and single exit. It can be seen as a container for instructions. Also, basic blocks are nodes of control flow graphs.

The following invariants must be preserved:

  • there is no known jump in the program, that points to an instruction that is not a leader of a basic block;
  • any jump instruction is a terminator of some basic block;
  • each basic block consists of at least one instruction.
type t = block
include Ppx_compare_lib.Comparable.S with type t := t
val sexp_of_t : t -> Sexplib0.Sexp.t
val create : mem -> (mem * insn) list -> t

create mem insn creates a block Preconditions:

  • insns <> []
val addr : t -> addr

addr block = Memory.min_addr (memory block) address of the first instruction

val memory : t -> mem

memory blk a memory region, occupied by a block

val leader : t -> insn

leader blk the first instruction

val terminator : t -> insn

terminator blk last instruction of the block

val insns : t -> (mem * insn) list

insns blk returns a list of block instructions.

Since block contains a region of memory, that is not regular, the block itself is also non-regular. But it is, at least, printable.

val (>=) : t -> t -> bool
val (<=) : t -> t -> bool
val (=) : t -> t -> bool
val (>) : t -> t -> bool
val (<) : t -> t -> bool
val (<>) : t -> t -> bool
val equal : t -> t -> bool
val min : t -> t -> t
val max : t -> t -> t
val ascending : t -> t -> int

ascending is identical to compare. descending x y = ascending y x. These are intended to be mnemonic when used like List.sort ~compare:ascending and List.sort ~cmp:descending, since they cause the list to be sorted in ascending or descending order, respectively.

val descending : t -> t -> int
val between : t -> low:t -> high:t -> bool

between t ~low ~high means low <= t <= high

val clamp_exn : t -> min:t -> max:t -> t

clamp_exn t ~min ~max returns t', the closest value to t such that between t' ~low:min ~high:max is true.

Raises if not (min <= max).

all the printing stuff, including to_string function

include Regular.Std.Printable.S with type t := t
val to_string : t -> string

to_string x returns a human-readable representation of x

val str : unit -> t -> string

str () t is formatted output function that matches "%a" conversion format specifier in functions, that prints to string, e.g., sprintf, failwithf, errorf and, surprisingly all Lwt printing function, including Lwt_io.printf and logging (or any other function with type ('a,unit,string,...) formatN`. Example:

Or_error.errorf "type %a is not valid for %a"
  Type.str ty Exp.str exp
val pps : unit -> t -> string

synonym for str

val ppo : Core_kernel.Out_channel.t -> t -> unit

will print to a standard output_channel, useful for using in printf, fprintf, etc.

val pp_seq : Format.formatter -> t Core_kernel.Sequence.t -> unit

prints a sequence of values of type t

this will include pp function from Core that has type t printer, and can be used in Format.printf family of functions

include Core_kernel.Pretty_printer.S with type t := t
val pp : Base.Formatter.t -> t -> unit
