If it is, it is eliminated and its result is replaced with the available value. ### Availability analysis: equivalence sets LOAD-STORE pairs can also be detected, by examining `moveToCallFrame` instructions and eliminating them if the variable being written is available, and known to be equal to the Tcl value in the callframe. Therefore, in the availability analysis, as well as accumulating the sets of available Tcl values and the names in the callframe that correspond to them, we must track the sets of names in a given callframe that correspond correspond to each SSA value.

Calculating anticipability requires multiple traversals of the program in postdominator order. Nothing is anticipable on `return`. For blocks that do not return, we begin by taking the intersection of values anticipable at their successors: ![\texttt{ANTIC\_OUT}[B] = \bigcap_{P\in \texttt{succ}[B]} \texttt{ANTIC\_IN}[P] \right)](./anticout.svg) |

If the expression is available in at least one predecessor, but not all predecessors, we insert `moveFromCallFrame` instructions for it in the predecessors where it is unavailable. This is another analysis that must be iterated to convergence. Inserting these `moveFromCallFrame` operations produces new available variables, which can in turn expose further opportunities for code motion. \[VAND04\] discusses this in more detail in chapter 4. ### Possible combination of passes This analysis closely mirrors what happens in partial redundancy |

In a similar manner, `moveToCallFrame` instructions can be placed speculatively at the head of blocks in order to make partially dead assignments ("faint" assignments in the terminology of \[KNOO94\]) fully dead and eliminate a `moveToCallFrame` on an eariler path of the program. \[LO98\] demonstrates how this partial liveness analysis is precisely dual to partial availability analysis, and introduces a dual form to Static Single Assignment (SSA), called Static Single Use (SSU). This latter form has similar advantages to SSA in that the dependency chain, here from definition to use rather than from use to definition, is factored so that there are explicit deviation points (dual to the merge |

We begin with the liveness analysis of Task 2. We augment 'liveness' with the concept of partial liveness. The data flow equations will look like ![\textt{LIVE\_OUT}[B] formula](liveout.svg) ![\textt{PLIVE\_OUT}[B] formula](pliveout.svg) ![\textt{LIVE\_IN}[B] = \textt{process}(B, \textt{LIVE\_OUT}[B])](livein.svg) ![\textt{PLIVE\_IN}[B] = \textt{process}(B, \textt{PLIVE\_OUT}[B])](plivein.svg) In these equations, _process_ represents the basic-block-level upward analysis from Task 2. The _LIVE_ and _PLIVE_ sets are sets of (callframe, variable) pairs, and it is assumed that the arguments to the intersection and union are translated if the callframe appears in a φ operation. Liveness corresponds to the 'availability' of the partial redundancy elimination. Just as a `moveFromCallFrame` may not be hoisted over the point where it is available, a `moveToCallFrame` may not be sunk past the point where it is live. Similarly, `moveToCallFrame` creates values and corresponds to anticipability. Just as it is of no benefit to insert a `moveFromCallFrame` for a value that is not anticipated, it is of no benefit to insert a `moveToCallFrame` for a value that is already present. ## References \[DREC93\] Karl-Heinz Drechsler and Manfred P.
