All Implemented Interfaces:

Runnable

public class SsaRenamer
extends Object
implements Runnable

Complete transformation to SSA form by renaming all registers accessed.

See Appel algorithm 19.7

Unlike the original algorithm presented in Appel, this renamer converts to a new flat (versionless) register space. The "version 0" registers, which represent the initial state of the Rop registers and should never actually be meaningfully accessed in a legal program, are represented as the first N registers in the SSA namespace. Subsequent assignments are assigned new unique names. Note that the incoming Rop representation has a concept of register widths, where 64-bit values are stored into two adjoining Rop registers. This adjoining register representation is ignored in SSA form conversion and while in SSA form, each register can be e either 32 or 64 bits wide depending on use. The adjoining-register represention is re-created later when converting back to Rop form.

But, please note, the SSA Renamer's ignoring of the adjoining-register ROP representation means that unaligned accesses to 64-bit registers are not supported. For example, you cannot do a 32-bit operation on a portion of a 64-bit register. This will never be observed to happen when coming from Java code, of course.

The implementation here, rather than keeping a single register version stack for the entire method as the dom tree is walked, instead keeps a mapping table for the current block being processed. Once the current block has been processed, this mapping table is then copied and used as the initial state for child blocks.
