The two // key invariants we have to ensure are: (1) pointers to stack objects // cannot be stored in the heap, and (2) pointers to a stack object // cannot outlive that object (e.g., because the declaring function // returned and destroyed the object's stack frame, or its space is // reused across loop iterations for logically distinct variables). // // We implement this with a static data-flow analysis of the AST. // First, we construct a directed weighted graph where vertices // (termed "locations") represent variables allocated by statements // and expressions, and edges represent assignments between variables // (with weights representing addressing/dereference counts). // // Next we walk the graph looking for assignment paths that might // violate the invariants stated above. If a variable v's address is // stored in the heap or elsewhere that may outlive it, then v is // marked as requiring heap allocation. // // To support interprocedural analysis, we also record data-flow from // each function's parameters to the heap and to its result // parameters. This information is summarized as "parameter tags", // which are used at static call sites to improve escape analysis of // function arguments. // Constructing the location graph. // // Every allocating statement (e.g., variable declaration) or // expression (e.g., "new" or "make") is first mapped to a unique // "location." // // We also model every Go assignment as a directed edges between // locations. The number of dereference operations minus the number of // addressing operations is recorded as the edge's weight (termed // "derefs"). For example: // // p = &q // -1 // p = q // 0 // p = *q // 1 // p = **q // 2 // // p = **&**&q // 2 // // Note that the & operator can only be applied to addressable // expressions, and the expression &x itself is not addressable, so // derefs cannot go below -1. // // Every Go language construct is lowered into this representation, // generally without sensitivity to flow, path, or context; and // without distinguishing elements within a compound variable. For // example: // // var x struct { f, g *int } // var u []*int // // x.f = u[0] // // is modeled simply as // // x = *u // // That is, we don't distinguish x.f from x.g, or u[0] from u[1], // u[2], etc. However, we do record the implicit dereference involved // in indexing a slice. // A batch holds escape analysis state that's shared across an entire // batch of functions being analyzed at once. type batch struct { allLocs []*location closures []closure heapLoc location blankLoc location } // A closure holds a closure expression and its spill hole (i.e., // where the hole representing storing into its closure record). type closure struct { k hole clo *ir.ClosureExpr } // An escape holds state specific to a single function being analyzed // within a batch. type escape struct { *batch curfn *ir.Func // function being analyzed labels map[*types.Sym]labelState // known labels // loopDepth counts the current loop nesting depth within // curfn.
