I've tried generating a pass pipeline with
utils/pass-pipeline/scripts/pipelines_generator.py
and use it with the -external-pass-pipeline-filename. However, AFAICT the
generated pipeline is not in the correct format that the compiler expects:
[
[
"HighLevel",
"run_n_times",
2,
"SimplifyCFG",
...
"GlobalARCOpts"
],
[
"EarlyLoopOpt",
"run_n_times",
1,
"LowerAggregateInstrs",
...
"SwiftArrayOpts"
],
...
]
Each generated pass pipeline contains the "run_n_times"|"run_to_fixed_point"
field, followed by the number of iterations, which is not what the compiler
expects.
I had no luck even when I tried to re-format the file containing the
pipelines to something that I believe the compiler would expect based on
the source code of SILPassPipelinePlan::getPassPipelineFromFile():
[
[
"HihLevel",
"SimplifyCFG",
...
"GlobalARCOpts"
],
...
]
or even:
[
[
"HighLevel",
[ "SimplifyCFG" ],
...
[ "GlobalARCOpts" ]
],
...
]
I suspect that we don't use the pass pipeline python scripts in our
buildbots anymore and the relevant bits, ie. the code in
SILPassPipelinePlan::getPassPipelineFromFile and/or the python scripts,
have not been kept up-to-date.
