What is set by -O* that is not included in optLevelFlags?
I would have thought that setting all the flags implied by, e.g., -O1, would be
the same as setting -O1 itself. But this is not the case! Here are all the
flags for O1 from optLevelFlags:
Opt_DoLambdaEtaExpansion
Opt_DoEtaReduction
Opt_LlvmTBAA
Opt_CallArity
Opt_Exitification
Opt_CaseMerge
Opt_CaseFolding
Opt_CmmElimCommonBlocks
Opt_CmmSink
Opt_CmmStaticPred
Opt_CSE
Opt_StgCSE
Opt_EnableRewriteRules
Opt_FloatIn
Opt_FullLaziness
Opt_IgnoreAsserts
Opt_Loopification
Opt_CfgBlocklayout
Opt_Specialise
Opt_CrossModuleSpecialise
Opt_InlineGenerics
Opt_Strictness
Opt_UnboxSmallStrictFields
Opt_CprAnal
Opt_WorkerWrapper
Opt_SolveConstantDicts
Opt_NumConstantFolding
And here are the ones that are set by O0 (the default) but not by O1:
Opt_IgnoreInterfacePragmas
Opt_OmitInterfacePragmas
So I expected that the following two invocations of GHC would be equivalent:
1. ghc -O1
2. ghc -fdo-lambda-eta-expansion -fdo-eta-reduction -fllvm-tbaa -fcall-arity
-fexitification -fcase-merge -fcase-folding -fcmm-elim-common-blocks -fcmm-sink
-fcmm-static-pred -fcse -fstg-cse -fenable-rewrite-rules -ffloat-in
-ffull-laziness -fignore-asserts -floopification -fblock-layout-cfg
-fspecialise -fcross-module-specialise -finline-generics -fstrictness
-funbox-small-strict-fields -fcpr-anal -fworker-wrapper -fsolve-constant-dicts
-fnum-constant-folding -fno-ignore-interface-pragmas -fno-omit-interface-pragmas
However, just by observing the output of -dshow-passes, I can see that while
-O1 applies all these optimizations, the second version does NOT, even though I
have turned on each and every one of them one by one.
Looking at compiler/GHC/Driver/Session.hs, it is not at all clear that -O*
should do more than just setting the flags from optLevelFlags. What other flags
are implied by -O*?
