\chapter{Preliminaries}
\label{ch:trees-recur}

In this chapter, we review the basic tools that are needed for
implementing a compiler. We use abstract syntax trees (ASTs) in the
form of S-expressions to represent programs (Section~\ref{sec:ast})
and pattern matching to inspect an AST node
(Section~\ref{sec:pattern-matching}).  We use recursion to construct
and deconstruct entire ASTs (Section~\ref{sec:recursion}).

\section{Abstract Syntax Trees}
\label{sec:ast}

The primary data structure that is commonly used for representing
programs is the \emph{abstract syntax tree} (AST). When considering
some part of a program, a compiler needs to ask what kind of part it
is and what sub-parts it has. For example, the program on the left is
represented by the AST on the right.
\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}{0.4\textwidth}
\begin{lstlisting}
(+ (read) (- 8))
\end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}
\begin{minipage}{0.4\textwidth}
\begin{equation}
\xymatrix@=15pt{
    & *++[Fo]{+} \ar[dl]\ar[dr]& \\
*+[Fo]{\tt read}  &   & *++[Fo]{-} \ar[d] \\
    &   & *++[Fo]{\tt 8} 
} \label{eq:arith-prog}
\end{equation}
\end{minipage}
\end{center}
We shall use the standard terminology for trees: each square above is
called a \emph{node}. The arrows connect a node to its \emph{children}
(which are also nodes). The top-most node is the \emph{root}.  Every
node except for the root has a \emph{parent} (the node it is the child
of). If a node has no children, it is a \emph{leaf} node.  Otherwise
it is an \emph{internal} node.

When deciding how to compile the above program, we need to know that
the root node an addition and that it has two children: \texttt{read}
and the negation of \texttt{8}. The abstract syntax tree data
structure directly supports these queries and hence is a good
choice. In this book, we will often write down the textual
representation of a program even when we really have in mind the AST,
simply because the textual representation is easier to typeset.  We
recommend that, in your mind, you should alway interpret programs as
abstract syntax trees.

\section{Grammars}
\label{sec:grammar}

A programming language can be thought of as a \emph{set} of programs.
The set is typically infinite (one can always create larger and larger
programs), so one cannot simply describe a language by listing all of
the programs in the language. Instead we write down a set of rules, a
\emph{grammar}, for building programs. We shall write our rules in a
variant of Backus-Naur Form (BNF)~\citep{Backus:1960aa,Knuth:1964aa}.
As an example, we describe a small language, named $\itm{arith}$, of
integers and arithmetic operations. The first rule says that any
integer is in the language:
\begin{equation}
\itm{arith} ::= \Int  \label{eq:arith-int}
\end{equation}
Each rule has a left-hand-side and a right-hand-side. The way to read
a rule is that if you have all the program parts on the
right-hand-side, then you can create and AST node and categorize it
according to the left-hand-side. (We do not define $\Int$ because the
reader already knows what an integer is.) A name such as $\itm{arith}$
that is defined by the rules, is a \emph{non-terminal}.

The second rule for the $\itm{arith}$ language is the \texttt{read}
function to receive an input integer from the user of the program.
\begin{equation}
  \itm{arith} ::= (\key{read}) \label{eq:arith-read}
\end{equation}

The third rule says that, given an $\itm{arith}$, you can build
another arith by negating it.
\begin{equation}
  \itm{arith} ::= (\key{-} \; \itm{arith})  \label{eq:arith-neg}
\end{equation}
Symbols such as \key{-} that play an auxilliary role in the abstract
syntax are called \emph{terminal} symbols.

By rule \eqref{eq:arith-int}, \texttt{8} is an $\itm{arith}$, then by
rule \eqref{eq:arith-neg}, the following AST is an $\itm{arith}$.
\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}{0.25\textwidth}
\begin{lstlisting}
(- 8)
\end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}
\begin{minipage}{0.25\textwidth}
\begin{equation}
\xymatrix@=15pt{
 *+[Fo]{-} \ar[d] \\
 *+[Fo]{\tt 8} 
}
\label{eq:arith-neg8}
\end{equation}
\end{minipage}
\end{center}

The last rule for the $\itm{arith}$ language is for addition:
\begin{equation}
  \itm{arith} ::= (\key{+} \; \itm{arith} \; \itm{arith}) \label{eq:arith-add}
\end{equation}
Now we can see that the AST \eqref{eq:arith-prog} is in $\itm{arith}$.
We know that \lstinline{(read)} is in $\itm{arith}$ by rule
\eqref{eq:arith-read} and we have shown that \texttt{(- 8)} is in
$\itm{arith}$, so we can apply rule \eqref{eq:arith-add} to show that
\texttt{(+ (read) (- 8))} is in the $\itm{arith}$ language.

If you have an AST for which the above four rules do not apply, then
the AST is not in $\itm{arith}$. For example, the AST \texttt{(- (read)
  (+ 8))} is not in $\itm{arith}$ because there are no rules for $+$
with only one argument, nor for $-$ with two arguments.  Whenever we
define a language through a grammar, we implicitly mean for the
language to be the smallest set of programs that are justified by the
rules. That is, the language only includes those programs that the
rules allow.

It is common to have many rules with the same left-hand side, so the
following vertical bar notation is used to gather several rules on one
line.  We refer to each clause between a vertical bar as an
``alternative''.
\[
\itm{arith} ::= \Int \mid (\key{read}) \mid (\key{-} \; \itm{arith}) \mid
   (\key{+} \; \itm{arith} \; \itm{arith}) 
\]

\section{S-Expressions}
\label{sec:s-expr}

Racket, as a descendant of Lisp~\citep{McCarthy:1960dz}, has
particularly convenient support for creating and manipulating abstract
syntax trees with its \emph{symbolic expression} feature, or
S-expression for short. We can create an S-expression simply by
writing a backquote followed by the textual representation of the
AST. (Technically speaking, this is called a \emph{quasiquote} in
Racket.)  For example, an S-expression to represent the AST
\eqref{eq:arith-prog} is created by the following Racket expression:
\begin{center}
\texttt{`(+ (read) (- 8))}
\end{center}

To build larger S-expressions one often needs to splice together
several smaller S-expressions. Racket provides the comma operator to
splice an S-expression into a larger one. For example, instead of
creating the S-expression for AST \eqref{eq:arith-prog} all at once,
we could have first created an S-expression for AST
\eqref{eq:arith-neg8} and then spliced that into the addition
S-expression.
\begin{lstlisting}
   (define ast1.4 `(- 8))
   (define ast1.1 `(+ (read) ,ast1.4))
\end{lstlisting}
In general, the Racket expression that follows the comma (splice)
can be any expression that computes an S-expression.

\section{Pattern Matching}
\label{sec:pattern-matching}

As mentioned above, one of the operations that a compiler needs to
perform on an AST is to access the children of a node.  Racket
provides the \texttt{match} form to access the parts of an
S-expression. Consider the following example and the output on the
right.
\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}{0.5\textwidth}
\begin{lstlisting}
(match ast1.1
  [`(,op ,child1 ,child2)
    (print op) (newline)
    (print child1) (newline)
    (print child2)])
\end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}
\vrule
\begin{minipage}{0.25\textwidth}
\begin{lstlisting}


   '+
   '(read)
   '(- 8)
\end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}
\end{center}
The \texttt{match} form takes AST \eqref{eq:arith-prog} and binds its
parts to the three variables \texttt{op}, \texttt{child1}, and
\texttt{child2}. In general, a match clause consists of a
\emph{pattern} and a \emph{body}. The pattern is a quoted S-expression
that may contain pattern-variables (preceded by a comma).  The body
may contain any Racket code.

A \texttt{match} form may contain several clauses, as in the following
function \texttt{leaf?} that recognizes when an $\itm{arith}$ node is
a leaf. The \texttt{match} proceeds through the clauses in order,
checking whether the pattern can match the input S-expression. The
body of the first clause that matches is executed. The output of
\texttt{leaf?} for several S-expressions is shown on the right. In the
below \texttt{match}, we see another form of pattern: the \texttt{(?
  fixnum?)} applies the predicate \texttt{fixnum?} to the input
S-expression to see if it is a machine-representable integer.
\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}{0.5\textwidth}
\begin{lstlisting}
(define (leaf? arith)
  (match arith
    [(? fixnum?) #t]
    [`(read) #t]
    [`(- ,c1) #f]
    [`(+ ,c1 ,c2) #f]))

(leaf? `(read))
(leaf? `(- 8))
(leaf? `(+ (read) (- 8)))
\end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}
\vrule
\begin{minipage}{0.25\textwidth}
\begin{lstlisting}






   #t
   #f
   #f
\end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}
\end{center}


%% From this grammar, we have defined {\tt arith} by constraining its
%% syntax.  Effectively, we have defined {\tt arith} by first defining
%% what a legal expression (or program) within the language is. To
%% clarify further, we can think of {\tt arith} as a \textit{set} of
%% expressions, where, under syntax constraints, \mbox{{\tt (+ 1 1)}} and
%% {\tt -1} are inhabitants and {\tt (+ 3.2 3)} and {\tt (++ 2 2)} are
%% not (see ~Figure\ref{fig:ast}).

%% The relationship between a grammar and an AST is then similar to that
%% of a set and an inhabitant. From this, every syntaxically valid
%% expression, under the constraints of a grammar, can be represented by
%% an abstract syntax tree. This is because {\tt arith} is essentially a
%% specification of a Tree-like data-structure. In this case, tree nodes
%% are the arithmetic operators {\tt +} and {\tt -}, and the leaves are
%% integer constants. From this, we can represent any expression of {\tt
%%   arith} using a \textit{syntax expression} (s-exp).

%% \begin{figure}[htbp]

%% $quote$ ('), $backquote$ (`), and $comma$ (,) are reader sugar for
%% {\tt quote}, {\tt quasiquote}, and {\tt unquote}. We provide several
%% examples of s-exps and functions that return s-exps below. We use the
%% {\tt >} symbol to represent interaction with a Racket REPL.

% \begin{enumerate}
% \item Syntax transformation
% \item Some Racket examples (factorial?)
% \end{enumerate}

%% For our purposes, our compiler will take a Scheme-like expression and
%% transform it to X86\_64 Assembly. Along the way, we transform each
%% input expression into a handful of \textit{intermediary languages}
%% (IL).  A key tool for transforming one language into another is
%% \textit{pattern matching}.

%% Racket provides a built-in pattern-matcher, {\tt match}, that we can
%% use to perform operations on s-exps. As a preliminary example, we
%% include a familiar definition of factorial, first without using match.
%% \begin{verbatim}
%% (define (! n)
%%   (if (zero? n) 1
%%       (* n (! (sub1 n)))))
%% \end{verbatim}
%% In this form of factorial, we are simply conditioning (viz. {\tt zero?})
%% on the inputted natural number, {\tt n}. If we rewrite factorial using 
%% {\tt match}, we can match on the actual value of {\tt n}.
%% \begin{verbatim}
%% (define (! n)
%%   (match n
%%     (0 1)
%%     (n (* n (! (sub1 n))))))
%% \end{verbatim}
%% In this definition of factorial, the first {\tt match} line (viz. {\tt (0 1)})
%% can be read as "if {\tt n} is 0, then return 1." The second line matches on an
%% arbitrary variable, {\tt n}, and does not place any constraints on it. We could
%% have also written this line as {\tt (else (* n (! (sub1 n))))}, where {\tt n}
%% is scoped by {\tt match}. Of course, we can also use {\tt match} to pattern
%% match on more complex expressions.

\section{Recursion}
\label{sec:recursion}

Programs are inherently recursive in that an $\itm{arith}$ AST is made
up of smaller $\itm{arith}$ ASTs. Thus, the natural way to process in
entire program is with a recursive function.  As a first example of
such a function, we define \texttt{arith?} below, which takes an
arbitrary S-expression, {\tt sexp}, and determines whether or not {\tt
  sexp} is in {\tt arith}. Note that each match clause corresponds to
one grammar rule for $\itm{arith}$ and the body of each clause makes a
recursive call for each child node. This pattern of recursive function
is so common that it has a name, \emph{structural recursion}.  In
general, when a recursive function is defined using a set of match
clauses that correspond to a grammar, and each clause body makes a
recursive call on each child node, then we say the function is defined
by structural recursion.

\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}{0.7\textwidth}
\begin{lstlisting}
(define (arith? sexp)
  (match sexp
    [(? fixnum?) #t]
    [`(read) #t]
    [`(- ,e) (arith? e)]
    [`(+ ,e1 ,e2)
     (and (arith? e1) (arith? e2))]
    [else #f]))

(arith? `(+ (read) (- 8)))
(arith? `(- (read) (+ 8)))
\end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}
\vrule
\begin{minipage}{0.25\textwidth}
\begin{lstlisting}








   #t
   #f
\end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}
\end{center}




%% Here, {\tt \#:when} puts constraints on the value of matched expressions.
%% In this case, we make sure that every sub-expression in \textit{op} position
%% is either {\tt +} or {\tt -}. Otherwise, we return an error, signaling a
%% non-{\tt arith} expression. As we mentioned earlier, every expression 
%% wrapped in an {\tt unquote} is evaluated first. When used in a LHS {\tt match}
%% sub-expression, these expressions evaluate to the actual value of the matched
%% expression (i.e., {\tt arith-exp}). Thus, {\tt `(,e1 ,op ,e2)} and 
%% {\tt `(e1 op e2)} are not equivalent.


% \begin{enumerate}
% \item \textit{What is a base case?}
% \item Using on a language (lambda calculus -> 
% \end{enumerate}
%% Before getting into more complex {\tt match} examples, we first
%% introduce the concept of \textit{structural recursion}, which is the
%% general name for recurring over Tree-like or \textit{possibly
%%   deeply-nested list} structures.  The key to performing structural
%% recursion, which from now on we refer to simply as recursion, is to
%% have some form of specification for the structure we are recurring
%% on. Luckily, we are already familiar with one: a BNF or grammar.

%% For example, let's take the grammar for $S_0$, which we include below. 
%% Writing a recursive program that takes an arbitrary expression of $S_0$
%% should handle each expression in the grammar. An example program that
%% we can write is an $interpreter$. To keep our interpreter simple, we 
%% ignore the {\tt read} operator.
%% \begin{figure}[htbp]

%% \end{array}
%% \]

\section{Interpreter}
\label{sec:interp-arith}

The meaning, or semantics, of a program is typically defined in the
specification of the language. For example, the Scheme language is
defined in the report by \cite{SPERBER:2009aa}. The Racket language is
defined in its reference manual~\citep{plt-tr}. In this book we use an
interpreter to define the meaning of each language that we consider,
following Reynold's advice in this
regard~\citep{reynolds72:_def_interp}. Here we will warm up by writing
an interpreter for the $\itm{arith}$ language, which will also serve
as a second example of structural recursion. The \texttt{interp-arith}
function is defined in Figure~\ref{fig:interp-arith}. The body of the
function is a match on the input expression \texttt{e} and there is
one clause per grammar rule for $\itm{arith}$. The clauses for
internal AST nodes make recursive calls to \texttt{interp-arith} on
each child node.

\begin{figure}[tbp]
\begin{lstlisting}
   (define (interp-arith e)
     (match e
       [(? fixnum?) e]
       [`(read)
        (define r (read))
        (cond [(fixnum? r) r]
              [else (error 'interp-arith "expected an integer" r)])]
       [`(- ,e)
        (fx- 0 (interp-arith e))]
       [`(+ ,e1 ,e2)
        (fx+ (interp-arith e1) (interp-arith e2))]
       ))
\end{lstlisting}
\caption{Interpreter for the $\itm{arith}$ language.}
\label{fig:interp-arith}
\end{figure}

We make the simplifying design decision that the $\itm{arith}$
language (and all of the languages in this book) only handle
machine-representable integers, that is, the \texttt{fixnum} datatype
in Racket. Thus, we implement the arithmetic operations using the
appropriate fixnum operators.

If we interpret the AST \eqref{eq:arith-prog} and give it the input
\texttt{50}
\begin{lstlisting}
   (interp-arith ast1.1)
\end{lstlisting}
we get the answer to life, the universe, and everything
\begin{lstlisting}
   42
\end{lstlisting}

The job of a compiler is to translate programs in one language into
programs in another language (typically but not always a language with
a lower level of abstraction) in such a way that each output program
behaves the same way as the input program. This idea is depicted in
the following diagram. Suppose we have two languages, $\mathcal{L}_1$
and $\mathcal{L}_2$, and an interpreter for each language.  Suppose
that the compiler translates program $P_1$ in language $\mathcal{L}_1$
into program $P_2$ in language $\mathcal{L}_2$.  Then interpreting
$P_1$ and $P_2$ on the respective interpreters for the two languages,
and given the same inputs $i$, should yield the same output $o$.
\begin{equation} \label{eq:compile-correct}
\xymatrix@=50pt{
  P_1 \ar[r]^{compile}\ar[dr]_{\mathcal{L}_1-interp(i)} & P_2 \ar[d]^{\mathcal{L}_2-interp(i)} \\
   & o
}
\end{equation}
In the next section we will see our first example of a compiler, which
is also be another example of structural recursion.


\section{Partial Evaluation}
\label{sec:partial-evaluation}

In this section we consider a compiler that translates $\itm{arith}$
programs into $\itm{arith}$ programs that are more efficient, that is,
this compiler is an optimizer. Our optimizer will accomplish this by
trying to eagerly compute the parts of the program that do not depend
on any inputs. For example, given the following program
\begin{lstlisting}
(+ (read) (- (+ 5 3)))
\end{lstlisting}
our compiler will translate it into the program
\begin{lstlisting}
(+ (read) -8)
\end{lstlisting}

Figure~\ref{fig:pe-arith} gives the code for a simple partial
evaluator for the $\itm{arith}$ language. The output of the partial
evaluator is an $\itm{arith}$ program, which we build up using a
combination of quasiquotes and commas. (Though no quasiquote is
necessary for integers.) In Figure~\ref{fig:pe-arith}, the normal
structural recursion is captured in the main \texttt{pe-arith}
function whereas the code for partially evaluating negation and
addition is factored out the into two separate helper functions:
\texttt{pe-neg} and \texttt{pe-add}. The input to these helper
functions is the output of partially evaluating the children nodes.

\begin{figure}[tbp]
\begin{lstlisting}
   (define (pe-neg r)
     (match r
       [(? fixnum?) (fx- 0 r)]
       [else `(- ,r)]))
   (define (pe-add r1 r2)
     (match (list r1 r2)
       [`(,n1 ,n2) #:when (and (fixnum? n1) (fixnum? n2))
        (fx+ r1 r2)]
       [else `(+ ,r1 ,r2)]))
   (define (pe-arith e)
     (match e
       [(? fixnum?) e]
       [`(read) `(read)]
       [`(- ,e1) (pe-neg (pe-arith e1))]
       [`(+ ,e1 ,e2) (pe-add (pe-arith e1) (pe-arith e2))]))   
\end{lstlisting}
\caption{A partial evaluator for the $\itm{arith}$ language.}
\label{fig:pe-arith}
\end{figure}

Our code for \texttt{pe-neg} and \texttt{pe-add} implements the simple
idea of checking whether the inputs are integers and if they are, to
go ahead perform the arithmetic.  Otherwise, we use quasiquote to
create an AST node for the appropriate operation (either negation or
addition) and use comma to splice in the child nodes.

To gain some confidence that the partial evaluator is correct, we can
test whether it produces programs that get the same result as the
input program. That is, we can test whether it satisfies Diagram
\eqref{eq:compile-correct}. The following code runs the partial
evaluator on several examples and tests the output program.  The
\texttt{assert} function is defined in Appendix~\ref{sec:utilities}.
\begin{lstlisting}
(define (test-pe pe p)
  (assert "testing pe-arith"
     (equal? (interp-arith p) (interp-arith (pe-arith p)))))

(test-pe `(+ (read) (- (+ 5 3))))
(test-pe `(+ 1 (+ (read) 1)))
(test-pe `(- (+ (read) (- 5))))
\end{lstlisting}

\begin{exercise}
We challenge the reader to improve on the simple partial evaluator in
Figure~\ref{fig:pe-arith} by replacing the \texttt{pe-neg} and
\texttt{pe-add} helper functions with functions that know more about
arithmetic. For example, your partial evaluator should translate
\begin{lstlisting}
   (+ 1 (+ (read) 1))
\end{lstlisting}
into
\begin{lstlisting}
   (+ 2 (read))
\end{lstlisting}
To accomplish this, we recomend that your partial evaluator produce
output that takes the form of the $\itm{residual}$ non-terminal in the
following grammar.
\[
\begin{array}{lcl}
e &::=& (\key{read}) \mid (\key{-} \;(\key{read})) \mid (\key{+} \;e\; e)\\
\itm{residual} &::=& \Int \mid (\key{+}\; \Int\; e) \mid e
\end{array}
\]
\end{exercise}

\chapter{Integers and Variables}
\label{ch:int-exp}

This chapter concerns the challenge of compiling a subset of Racket,
which we name $S_0$, to x86-64 assembly code. The chapter begins with
a description of the $S_0$ language (Section~\ref{sec:s0}) and then a
description of x86-64 (Section~\ref{sec:x86-64}). The x86-64 assembly
language is quite large, so we only discuss what is needed for
compiling $S_0$. We will introduce more of x86-64 in later
chapters. Once we have introduced $S_0$ and x86-64, we reflect on
their differences and come up with a plan for a handful of steps that
will take us from $S_0$ to x86-64 (Section~\ref{sec:plan-s0-x86}).
The rest of the sections in this Chapter give detailed hints regarding
what each step should do and how to organize your code
(Sections~\ref{sec:uniquify-s0}, \ref{sec:flatten-s0},
\ref{sec:select-s0} \ref{sec:assign-s0}, and \ref{sec:patch-s0}).  We
hope to give enough hints that the well-prepared reader can implement
a compiler from $S_0$ to x86-64 while at the same time leaving room
for some fun and creativity.

\section{The $S_0$ Language}
\label{sec:s0}

The $S_0$ language includes integers, operations on integers
(arithmetic and input), and variable definitions.  The syntax of the
$S_0$ language is defined by the grammar in
Figure~\ref{fig:s0-syntax}. This language is rich enough to exhibit
several compilation techniques but simple enough so that we can
implement a compiler for it in two weeks of hard work.  To give the
reader a feeling for the scale of this first compiler, the instructor
solution for the $S_0$ compiler consists of 6 recursive functions and
a few small helper functions that together span 256 lines of code.

\begin{figure}[btp]
\centering
\fbox{
\begin{minipage}{0.85\textwidth}
\[
\begin{array}{lcl}
  \Op  &::=& \key{+} \mid \key{-} \mid \key{*} \mid \key{read} \\
  \Exp &::=& \Int \mid (\Op \; \Exp^{*}) \mid \Var \mid \LET{\Var}{\Exp}{\Exp}
\end{array}
\]
\end{minipage}
}
\caption{The syntax of the $S_0$ language. The abbreviation \Op{} is
  short for operator, \Exp{} is short for expression, \Int{} for integer,
  and \Var{} for variable.}
\label{fig:s0-syntax}
\end{figure}

The result of evaluating an expression is a value.  For $S_0$, values
are integers. To make it straightforward to map these integers onto
x86-64 assembly~\citep{Matz:2013aa}, we restrict the integers to just
those representable with 64-bits, the range $-2^{63}$ to $2^{63}$
(``fixnums'' in Racket parlance).

We start with some examples of $S_0$ programs, commenting on aspects
of the language that will be relevant to compiling it.  We start with
one of the simplest $S_0$ programs; it adds two integers.
\[
\BINOP{+}{10}{32}
\]
The result is $42$, as you might expected. 
%
The next example demonstrates that expressions may be nested within
each other, in this case nesting several additions and negations.
\[
\BINOP{+}{10}{ \UNIOP{-}{ \BINOP{+}{12}{20} } }
\]
What is the result of the above program?

The \key{let} construct defines a variable for used within it's body
and initializes the variable with the value of an expression.  So the
following program initializes $x$ to $32$ and then evaluates the body
$\BINOP{+}{10}{x}$, producing $42$.
\[
\LET{x}{ \BINOP{+}{12}{20} }{ \BINOP{+}{10}{x} } 
\]
When there are multiple \key{let}'s for the same variable, the closest
enclosing \key{let} is used. That is, variable definitions overshadow
prior definitions. Consider the following program with two \key{let}'s
that define variables named $x$. Can you figure out the result?
\[
\LET{x}{32}{ \BINOP{+}{ \LET{x}{10}{x} }{ x } }
\]
For the purposes of showing which variable uses correspond to which
definitions, the following shows the $x$'s annotated with subscripts
to distinguish them. Double check that your answer for the above is
the same as your answer for this annotated version of the program.
\[
\LET{x_1}{32}{ \BINOP{+}{ \LET{x_2}{10}{x_2} }{ x_1 } }
\]

Moving on, the \key{read} operation prompts the user of the program
for an integer. Given an input of $10$, the following program produces
$42$.
\[
\BINOP{+}{(\key{read})}{32}
\]
We include the \key{read} operation in $S_0$ to demonstrate that order
of evaluation can make a different. Given the input $52$ then $10$,
the following produces $42$ (and not $-42$).
\[
\LET{x}{\READ}{ \LET{y}{\READ}{ \BINOP{-}{x}{y} } }
\]
The initializing expression is always evaluated before the body of the
\key{let}, so in the above, the \key{read} for $x$ is performed before
the \key{read} for $y$.
%
The behavior of the following program is somewhat subtle because
Racket does not specify an evaluation order for arguments of an
operator such as $-$.
\[
\BINOP{-}{\READ}{\READ}
\]
Given the input $42$ then $10$, the above program can result in either
$42$ or $-42$, depending on the whims of the Racket implementation.

The goal for this chapter is to implement a compiler that translates
any program $P_1 \in S_0$ into a x86-64 assembly program $P_2$ such
that the assembly program exhibits the same behavior on an x86
computer as the $S_0$ program running in a Racket implementation.
\[
\xymatrix{
P_1 \in S_0  \ar[rr]^{\text{compile}} \ar[drr]_{\text{run in Racket}\quad} 
  &&  P_2 \in \text{x86-64} \ar[d]^{\quad\text{run on an x86 machine}}\\
& & n \in \mathbb{Z}   
}
\]
In the next section we introduce enough of the x86-64 assembly
language to compile $S_0$.

\section{The x86-64 Assembly Language}
\label{sec:x86-64}

An x86-64 program is a sequence of instructions. The instructions may
refer to integer constants (called \emph{immediate values}), variables
called \emph{registers}, and instructions may load and store values
into \emph{memory}.  Memory is a mapping of 64-bit addresses to 64-bit
values. Figure~\ref{fig:x86-a} defines the syntax for the subset of
the x86-64 assembly language needed for this chapter.

An immediate value is written using the notation \key{\$}$n$ where $n$
is an integer. 
%
A register is written with a \key{\%} followed by the register name,
such as \key{\%rax}.
%
An access to memory is specified using the syntax $n(\key{\%}r)$,
which reads register $r$, obtaining address $a$, and then offsets the
address by $n$ bytes (8 bits), producing the address $a + n$. The
address is then used to either load or store to memory depending on
whether it occurs as a source or destination argument of an
instruction.

An arithmetic instruction, such as $\key{addq}\,s\,d$, reads from the
source argument $s$ and destination argument $d$, applies the
arithmetic operation, then write the result in the destination $d$. In
this case, computing $d \gets d + s$.
%
The move instruction, $\key{movq}\,s\,d$ reads from $s$ and stores the
result in $d$. 
%
The $\key{callq}\,\mathit{label}$ instruction executes the procedure
specified by the label, which we shall use to implement
\key{read}.

Figure~\ref{fig:p0-x86} depicts an x86-64 program that is equivalent to
$\BINOP{+}{10}{32}$. The \key{globl} directive says that the
\key{\_main} procedure is externally visible, which is necessary so
that the operating system can call it. The label \key{\_main:}
indicates the beginning of the \key{\_main} procedure which is where
the operating system starting executing this program.  The instruction
\lstinline{movq $10, %rax} puts $10$ into register \key{rax}. The
  following instruction \lstinline{addq $32, %rax} adds $32$ to the
    $10$ in \key{rax} and puts the result, $42$, back into
    \key{rax}. The instruction \key{retq} finishes the \key{\_main}
    function by returning the integer in the \key{rax} register to the
    operating system.

\caption{An x86-64 program equivalent to $\BINOP{+}{52}{\UNIOP{-}{10} }$.}
\label{fig:p1-x86}
\end{wrapfigure}

The next example exhibits the use of memory.  Figure~\ref{fig:p1-x86}
lists an x86-64 program that is equivalent to $\BINOP{+}{52}{
  \UNIOP{-}{10} }$. To understand how this x86-64 program works, we
need to explain a region of memory called called the \emph{procedure
  call stack} (or \emph{stack} for short). The stack consists of a
separate \emph{frame} for each procedure call. The memory layout for
an individual frame is shown in Figure~\ref{fig:frame}.  The register
\key{rsp} is called the \emph{stack pointer} and points to the item at
the top of the stack. The stack grows downward in memory, so we
increase the size of the stack by subtracting from the stack
pointer. The frame size is required to be a multiple of 16 bytes. The
register \key{rbp} is the \emph{base pointer} which serves two
purposes: 1) it saves the location of the stack pointer for the
procedure that called the current one and 2) it is used to access
variables associated with the current procedure. We number the
variables from $1$ to $n$. Variable $1$ is stored at address
$-8\key{(\%rbp)}$, variable $2$ at $-16\key{(\%rbp)}$, etc.

\begin{figure}[tbp]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{|r|l|} \hline
Position & Contents \\ \hline
8(\key{\%rbp}) & return address \\
0(\key{\%rbp}) & old \key{rbp} \\
-8(\key{\%rbp}) & variable $1$ \\
-16(\key{\%rbp}) & variable $2$ \\
 \ldots  & \ldots \\
0(\key{\%rsp}) & variable $n$\\ \hline
\end{tabular}

\caption{Memory layout of a frame.}
\label{fig:frame}
\end{figure}

Getting back to the program in Figure~\ref{fig:p1-x86}, the first
three instructions are the typical prelude for a procedure.  The
instruction \key{pushq \%rbp} saves the base pointer for the procedure
that called the current one onto the stack and subtracts $8$ from the
stack pointer. The second instruction \key{movq \%rsp, \%rbp} changes
the base pointer to the top of the stack. The instruction \key{subq
  \$16, \%rsp} moves the stack pointer down to make enough room for
storing variables.  This program just needs one variable ($8$ bytes)
but because the frame size is required to be a multiple of 16 bytes,
it rounds to 16 bytes.

The next four instructions carry out the work of computing
$\BINOP{+}{52}{\UNIOP{-}{10} }$. The first instruction \key{movq \$10,
  -8(\%rbp)} stores $10$ in variable $1$. The instruction \key{negq
  -8(\%rbp)} changes variable $1$ to $-10$. The \key{movq \$52, \%rax}
places $52$ in the register \key{rax} and \key{addq -8(\%rbp), \%rax}
adds the contents of variable $1$ to \key{rax}, at which point
\key{rax} contains $42$.

The last three instructions are the typical \emph{conclusion} of a
procedure. These instructions are necessary to get the state of the
machine back to where it was before the current procedure was called.
The \key{addq \$16, \%rsp} instruction moves the stack pointer back to
point at the old base pointer. The amount added here needs to match
the amount that was subtracted in the prelude of the procedure.  Then
\key{popq \%rbp} returns the old base pointer to \key{rbp} and adds
$8$ to the stack pointer.  The \key{retq} instruction jumps back to
the procedure that called this one and subtracts 8 from the stack
pointer.

The compiler will need a convenient representation for manipulating
x86 programs, so we define an abstract syntax for x86 in
Figure~\ref{fig:x86-ast-a}. The \itm{info} field of the \key{program}
AST node is for storing auxilliary information that needs to be
communicated from one step of the compiler to the next. The function
\key{print-x86} provided in the supplemental code converts an x86
abstract syntax tree into the text representation for x86
(Figure~\ref{fig:x86-a}).

\section{From $S_0$ to x86-64 via $C_0$}
\label{sec:plan-s0-x86}

To compile one language to another it helps to focus on the
differences between the two languages. It is these differences that
the compiler will need to bridge. What are the differences between
$S_0$ and x86-64 assembly? Here we list some of the most important the
differences.

\begin{enumerate}
\item x86-64 arithmetic instructions typically take two arguments and
  update the second argument in place. In contrast, $S_0$ arithmetic
  operations only read their arguments and produce a new value.

\item An argument to an $S_0$ operator can be any expression, whereas
  x86-64 instructions restrict their arguments to integers, registers,
  and memory locations.

\item An $S_0$ program can have any number of variables whereas x86-64
  has only 16 registers.

\item Variables in $S_0$ can overshadow other variables with the same
  name. The registers and memory locations of x86-64 all have unique
  names.
\end{enumerate}

We ease the challenge of compiling from $S_0$ to x86 by breaking down
the problem into several steps, dealing with the above differences one
at a time. The main question then becomes: in what order do we tackle
these differences? This is often one of the most challenging questions
that a compiler writer must answer because some orderings may be much
more difficult to implement than others. It is difficult to know ahead
of time which orders will be better so often some trial-and-error is
involved. However, we can try to plan ahead and choose the orderings
based on this planning.

For example, to handle difference \#2 (nested expressions), we shall
introduce new variables and pull apart the nested expressions into a
sequence of assignment statements.  To deal with difference \#3 we
will be replacing variables with registers and/or stack
locations. Thus, it makes sense to deal with \#2 before \#3 so that
\#3 can replace both the original variables and the new ones. Next,
consider where \#1 should fit in. Because it has to do with the format
of x86 instructions, it makes more sense after we have flattened the
nested expressions (\#2). Finally, when should we deal with \#4
(variable overshadowing)?  We shall solve this problem by renaming
variables to make sure they have unique names. Recall that our plan
for \#2 involves moving nested expressions, which could be problematic
if it changes the shadowing of variables. However, if we deal with \#4
first, then it will not be an issue.  Thus, we arrive at the following
ordering.
\[
\xymatrix{
4 \ar[r] & 2 \ar[r] & 1 \ar[r] & 3
}
\]

We further simplify the translation from $S_0$ to x86 by identifying
an intermediate language named $C_0$, roughly half-way between $S_0$
and x86, to provide a rest stop along the way. We name the language
$C_0$ because it is vaguely similar to the $C$
language~\citep{Kernighan:1988nx}. The differences \#4 and \#1,
regarding variables and nested expressions, will be handled by two
steps, \key{uniquify} and \key{flatten}, which bring us to
$C_0$.
\[\large
\xymatrix@=50pt{
  S_0 \ar@/^/[r]^-{\key{uniquify}} & 
  S_0 \ar@/^/[r]^-{\key{flatten}} &
  C_0 
}
\]
Each of these steps in the compiler is implemented by a function,
typically a structurally recursive function that translates an input
AST into an output AST. We refer to such a function as a \emph{pass}
because it makes a pass over the AST.

The syntax for $C_0$ is defined in Figure~\ref{fig:c0-syntax}.  The
$C_0$ language supports the same operators as $S_0$ but the arguments
of operators are now restricted to just variables and integers. The
\key{let} construct of $S_0$ is replaced by an assignment statement
and there is a \key{return} construct to specify the return value of
the program. A program consists of a sequence of statements that
include at least one \key{return} statement.

\begin{figure}[tbp]
\fbox{
\begin{minipage}{0.96\textwidth}
\[
\begin{array}{lcl}
\Arg &::=& \Int \mid \Var \\
\Exp &::=& \Arg \mid (\Op \; \Arg^{*})\\
\Stmt &::=& \ASSIGN{\Var}{\Exp} \mid \RETURN{\Arg} \\
\Prog & ::= & (\key{program}\;\itm{info}\;\Stmt^{+})
\end{array}
\]
\end{minipage}
}
\caption{The $C_0$ intermediate language.}
\label{fig:c0-syntax}
\end{figure}


To get from $C_0$ to x86-64 assembly requires three more steps, which
we discuss below.
\[\large
\xymatrix@=50pt{
  C_0 \ar@/^/[r]^-{\key{select\_instr.}}
  & \text{x86}^{*} \ar@/^/[r]^-{\key{assign\_homes}} 
  & \text{x86}^{*} \ar@/^/[r]^-{\key{patch\_instr.}}
  & \text{x86}
}
\]
We handle difference \#1, concerning the format of arithmetic
instructions, in the \key{select\_instructions} pass.  The result
of this pass produces programs consisting of x86-64 instructions that
use variables.
%
As there are only 16 registers, we cannot always map variables to
registers (difference \#3). Fortunately, the stack can grow quite
large, so we can map variables to locations on the stack. This is
handled in the \key{assign\_homes} pass. The topic of
Chapter~\ref{ch:register-allocation} is implementing a smarter
approach in which we make a best-effort to map variables to registers,
resorting to the stack only when necessary.

The final pass in our journey to x86 handles an indiosycracy of x86
assembly. Many x86 instructions have two arguments but only one of the
arguments may be a memory reference. Because we are mapping variables
to stack locations, many of our generated instructions will violate
this restriction. The purpose of the \key{patch\_instructions} pass
is to fix this problem by replacing every violating instruction with a
short sequence of instructions that use the \key{rax} register.

\section{Uniquify Variables}
\label{sec:uniquify-s0}

The purpose of this pass is to make sure that each \key{let} uses a
unique variable name. For example, the \key{uniquify} pass could
translate
\[
\LET{x}{32}{ \BINOP{+}{ \LET{x}{10}{x} }{ x } }
\]
to
\[
\LET{x.1}{32}{ \BINOP{+}{ \LET{x.2}{10}{x.2} }{ x.1 } }
\]

We recommend implementing \key{uniquify} as a recursive function that
mostly just copies the input program. However, when encountering a
\key{let}, it should generate a unique name for the variable (the
Racket function \key{gensym} is handy for this) and associate the old
name with the new unique name in an association list. The
\key{uniquify} function will need to access this association list when
it gets to a variable reference, so we add another paramter to
\key{uniquify} for the association list. It is quite common for a
compiler pass to need a map to store extra information about
variables. Such maps are often called \emph{symbol tables}.

The skeleton of the \key{uniquify} function is shown in
Figure~\ref{fig:uniquify-s0}.  The function is curried so that it is
convenient to partially apply it to an association list and then apply
it to different expressions, as in the last clause for primitive
operations in Figure~\ref{fig:uniquify-s0}.

\begin{exercise}
Complete the \key{uniquify} pass by filling in the blanks, that is,
implement the clauses for variables and for the \key{let} construct.
\end{exercise}

           [`(,op ,es ...)
            `(,op ,@(map (uniquify alist) es))]
           ))))
\end{lstlisting}
\caption{Skeleton for the \key{uniquify} pass.}
\label{fig:uniquify-s0}
\end{figure}

\begin{exercise}
Test your \key{uniquify} pass by creating three example $S_0$ programs
and checking whether the output programs produce the same result as
the input programs. The $S_0$ programs should be designed to test the
most interesting parts of the \key{uniquify} pass, that is, the
programs should include \key{let} constructs, variables, and variables
that overshadow eachother.  The three programs should be in a
subdirectory named \key{tests} and they shoul have the same file name
except for a different integer at the end of the name, followed by the
ending \key{.scm}.  Use the \key{interp-tests} function
(Appendix~\ref{sec:utilities}) from \key{utilities.rkt} to test your
\key{uniquify} pass on the example programs.

%% You can use the interpreter \key{interpret-S0} defined in the
%% \key{interp.rkt} file. The entire sequence of tests should be a short
%% Racket program so you can re-run all the tests by running the Racket
%% program. We refer to this as the \emph{regression test} program.
\end{exercise}


\section{Flatten Expressions}
\label{sec:flatten-s0}

The \key{flatten} pass will transform $S_0$ programs into $C_0$
programs. In particular, the purpose of the \key{flatten} pass is to
get rid of nested expressions, such as the $\UNIOP{-}{10}$ in the
following program.
\[
\BINOP{+}{52}{ \UNIOP{-}{10} }
\]
This can be accomplished by introducing a new variable, assigning the
nested expression to the new variable, and then using the new variable
in place of the nested expressions. For example, the above program is
translated to the following one.
\[
\begin{array}{l}
\ASSIGN{ \itm{x} }{ \UNIOP{-}{10} } \\
\ASSIGN{ \itm{y} }{ \BINOP{+}{52}{ \itm{x} } } \\
\RETURN{ y }
\end{array}
\]

We recommend implementing \key{flatten} as a structurally recursive
function that returns two things, 1) the newly flattened expression,
and 2) a list of assignment statements, one for each of the new
variables introduced while flattening the expression. You can return
multiple things from a function using the \key{values} form and you
can receive multiple things from a function call using the
\key{define-values} form. If you are not familiar with these
constructs, the Racket documentation will be of help.

Take special care for programs such as the following that initialize
variables with integers or other variables.
\[
\LET{a}{42}{ \LET{b}{a}{ b }}
\]
This program should be translated to 
\[
\ASSIGN{a}{42} \;
\ASSIGN{b}{a} \;
\RETURN{b}
\]
and not the following, which could result from a naive implementation
of \key{flatten}.
\[
\ASSIGN{x.1}{42}\;
\ASSIGN{a}{x.1}\;
\ASSIGN{x.2}{a}\;
\ASSIGN{b}{x.2}\;
\RETURN{b}
\]

\begin{exercise}
Implement the \key{flatten} pass and test it on all of the example
programs that you created to test the \key{uniquify} pass and create
three new example programs that are designed to exercise all of the
interesting code in the \key{flatten} pass. Use the \key{interp-tests}
function (Appendix~\ref{sec:utilities}) from \key{utilities.rkt} to
test your passes on the example programs.
\end{exercise}


\section{Select Instructions}
\label{sec:select-s0}

In the \key{select\_instructions} pass we begin the work of
translating from $C_0$ to x86. The target language of this pass is a
pseudo-x86 language that still uses variables, so we add an AST node
of the form $\VAR{\itm{var}}$ to the x86 abstract syntax.  The
\key{select\_instructions} pass deals with the differing format of
arithmetic operations. For example, in $C_0$ an addition operation
could take the following form:
\[
\ASSIGN{x}{ \BINOP{+}{10}{32} }
\]
To translate to x86, we need to express this addition using the
\key{addq} instruction that does an inplace update. So we first move
$10$ to $x$ then perform the \key{addq}.
\[
(\key{mov}\,\INT{10}\, \VAR{x})\; (\key{addq} \;\INT{32}\; \VAR{x})
\]

There are some cases that require special care to avoid generating
needlessly complicated code. If one of the arguments is the same as
the left-hand side of the assignment, then there is no need for the
extra move instruction.  For example, the following
\[
\ASSIGN{x}{ \BINOP{+}{10}{x} }
\quad\text{should translate to}\quad
(\key{addq} \; \INT{10}\; \VAR{x})
\]

Regarding the \RETURN{e} statement of $C_0$, we recommend treating it
as an assignment to the \key{rax} register and let the procedure
conclusion handle the transfer of control back to the calling
procedure.

\section{Assign Homes}
\label{sec:assign-s0}

As discussed in Section~\ref{sec:plan-s0-x86}, the
\key{assign\_homes} pass places all of the variables on the stack.
Consider again the example $S_0$ program $\BINOP{+}{52}{ \UNIOP{-}{10} }$,
which after \key{select\_instructions} looks like the following.
\[
\begin{array}{l}
(\key{movq}\;\INT{10}\; \VAR{x})\\
(\key{negq}\; \VAR{x})\\
(\key{movq}\; \INT{52}\; \REG{\itm{rax}})\\
(\key{addq}\; \VAR{x} \REG{\itm{rax}})
\end{array}
\]
The one and only variable $x$ is assigned to stack location
\key{-8(\%rbp)}, so the \key{assign\_homes} pass translates the
above to
\[
\begin{array}{l}
(\key{movq}\;\INT{10}\; \STACKLOC{{-}8})\\
(\key{negq}\; \STACKLOC{{-}8})\\
(\key{movq}\; \INT{52}\; \REG{\itm{rax}})\\
(\key{addq}\; \STACKLOC{{-}8}\; \REG{\itm{rax}})
\end{array}
\]

In the process of assigning stack locations to variables, it is
convenient to compute and store the size of the frame which will be
needed later to generate the procedure conclusion.

\section{Patch Instructions}
\label{sec:patch-s0}

The purpose of this pass is to make sure that each instruction adheres
to the restrictions regarding which arguments can be memory
references. For most instructions, the rule is that at most one
argument may be a memory reference.

Consider again the following example.
\[
\LET{a}{42}{ \LET{b}{a}{ b }}
\]
After \key{assign\_homes} pass, the above has been translated to
\[
\begin{array}{l}
(\key{movq} \;\INT{42}\; \STACKLOC{{-}8})\\
(\key{movq}\;\STACKLOC{{-}8}\; \STACKLOC{{-}16})\\
(\key{movq}\;\STACKLOC{{-}16}\; \REG{\itm{rax}})
\end{array}
\]
The second \key{movq} instruction is problematic because both arguments
are stack locations. We suggest fixing this problem by moving from the
source to \key{rax} and then from \key{rax} to the destination, as
follows.
\[
\begin{array}{l}
(\key{movq} \;\INT{42}\; \STACKLOC{{-}8})\\
(\key{movq}\;\STACKLOC{{-}8}\; \REG{\itm{rax}})\\
(\key{movq}\;\REG{\itm{rax}}\; \STACKLOC{{-}16})\\
(\key{movq}\;\STACKLOC{{-}16}\; \REG{\itm{rax}})
\end{array}
\]

The \key{imulq} instruction is a special case because the destination
argument must be a register.

\section{Print x86}
\label{sec:print-x86}

[To do: talk about printing the AST to x86.]

%% \section{Testing with Interpreters}

%% The typical way to test a compiler is to run the generated assembly
%% code on a diverse set of programs and check whether they behave as
%% expected. However, when a compiler is structured as our is, with many
%% passes, when there is an error in the generated assembly code it can
%% be hard to determine which pass contains the source of the error.  A
%% good way to isolate the error is to not only test the generated
%% assembly code but to also test the output of every pass. This requires
%% having interpreters for all the intermediate languages.  Indeed, the
%% file \key{interp.rkt} in the supplemental code provides interpreters
%% for all the intermediate languages described in this book, starting
%% with interpreters for $S_0$, $C_0$, and x86 (in abstract syntax).

%% The file \key{run-tests.rkt} automates the process of running the

\chapter{Register Allocation}
\label{ch:register-allocation}

In Chapter~\ref{ch:int-exp} we simplified the generation of x86
assembly by placing all variables on the stack. We can improve the
performance of the generated code considerably if we instead try to
place as many variables as possible into registers.  The CPU can
access a register in a single cycle, whereas accessing the stack can
take from several cycles (to go to cache) to hundreds of cycles (to go
to main memory).  Figure~\ref{fig:reg-eg} shows a program with four
variables that serves as a running example. We show the source program
and also the output of instruction selection. At that point the
program is almost x86 assembly but not quite; it still contains
variables instead of stack locations or registers.

\begin{figure}
\begin{minipage}{0.45\textwidth}
Source program:
\begin{lstlisting}
  (let ([v 1])
  (let ([w 46])
  (let ([x (+ v 7)])
  (let ([y (+ 4 x)])
  (let ([z (+ x w)])
       (- z y))))))
\end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}
\begin{minipage}{0.45\textwidth}
After instruction selection:
\begin{lstlisting}
  (program (v w x y z)
    (movq (int 1) (var v))
    (movq (int 46) (var w))
    (movq (var v) (var x))
    (addq (int 7) (var x))
    (movq (var x) (var y))
    (addq (int 4) (var y))
    (movq (var x) (var z))
    (addq (var w) (var z))
    (movq (var z) (reg rax))
    (subq (var y) (reg rax)))
\end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}
\caption{Running example for this chapter.}
\label{fig:reg-eg}
\end{figure}

The goal of register allocation is to fit as many variables into
registers as possible. It is often the case that we have more
variables than registers, so we can't naively map each variable to a
register. Fortunately, it is also common for different variables to be
needed during different periods of time, and in such cases the
variables can be mapped to the same register.  Consider variables $x$
and $y$ in Figure~\ref{fig:reg-eg}.  After the variable $x$ is moved
to $z$ it is no longer needed.  Variable $y$, on the other hand, is
used only after this point, so $x$ and $y$ could share the same
register. The topic of the next section is how we compute where a
variable is needed.


\section{Liveness Analysis}

A variable is \emph{live} if the variable is used at some later point
in the program and there is not an intervening assignment to the
variable.
%
To understand the latter condition, consider the following code
fragment in which there are two writes to $b$. Are $a$ and
$b$ both live at the same time? 
\begin{lstlisting}[numbers=left,numberstyle=\tiny]
(movq (int 5) (var a))    ; @$a \gets 5$@
(movq (int 30) (var b))   ; @$b \gets 30$@
(movq (var a) (var c))    ; @$c \gets x$@
(movq (int 10) (var b))   ; @$b \gets 10$@
(addq (var b) (var c))    ; @$c \gets c + b$@
\end{lstlisting}
The answer is no because the value $30$ written to $b$ on line 2 is
never used. The variable $b$ is read on line 5 and there is an
intervening write to $b$ on line 4, so the read on line 5 receives the
value written on line 4, not line 2.

The live variables can be computed by traversing the instruction
sequence back to front (i.e., backwards in execution order).  Let
$I_1,\ldots, I_n$ be the instruction sequence. We write
$L_{\mathsf{after}}(k)$ for the set of live variables after
instruction $I_k$ and $L_{\mathsf{before}}(k)$ for the set of live
variables before instruction $I_k$. The live variables after an
instruction are always the same as the live variables before the next
instruction.
\begin{equation*}
  L_{\mathsf{after}}(k) = L_{\mathsf{before}}(k+1)
\end{equation*}
To start things off, there are no live variables after the last
instruction, so 
\begin{equation*}
  L_{\mathsf{after}}(n) = \emptyset 
\end{equation*}
We then apply the following rule repeatedly, traversing the
instruction sequence back to front.
\begin{equation*}
  L_{\mathtt{before}}(k) = (L_{\mathtt{after}}(k) - W(k)) \cup R(k),
\end{equation*}
where $W(k)$ are the variables written to by instruction $I_k$ and
$R(k)$ are the variables read by instruction $I_k$.
Figure~\ref{fig:live-eg} shows the results of live variables analysis
for the running example. Next to each instruction we write its
$L_{\mathtt{after}}$ set.

\begin{figure}[tbp]
\begin{lstlisting}
  (program (v w x y z)
    (movq (int 1) (var v))      @$\{ v \}$@
    (movq (int 46) (var w))     @$\{ v, w \}$@
    (movq (var v) (var x))      @$\{ w, x \}$@
    (addq (int 7) (var x))      @$\{ w, x \}$@
    (movq (var x) (var y))      @$\{ w, x, y\}$@
    (addq (int 4) (var y))      @$\{ w, x, y \}$@
    (movq (var x) (var z))      @$\{ w, y, z \}$@
    (addq (var w) (var z))      @$\{ y, z \}$@
    (movq (var z) (reg rax))    @$\{ y \}$@
    (subq (var y) (reg rax)))   @$\{\}$@
\end{lstlisting}

\section{Building the Interference Graph}

Based on the liveness analysis, we know the program regions where each
variable is needed.  However, during register allocation, we need to
answer questions of the specific form: are variables $u$ and $v$ ever
live at the same time?  (And therefore cannot be assigned to the same
register.)  To make this question easier to answer, we create an
explicit data structure, an \emph{interference graph}.  An
interference graph is an undirected graph that has an edge between two
variables if they are live at the same time, that is, if they
interfere with each other.

The most obvious way to compute the interference graph is to look at
the set of live variables between each statement in the program, and
add an edge to the graph for every pair of variables in the same set.
This approach is less than ideal for two reasons. First, it can be
rather expensive because it takes $O(n^2)$ time to look at every pair
in a set of $n$ live variables. Second, there is a special case in
which two variables that are live at the same time do not actually
interfere with each other: when they both contain the same value
because we have assigned one to the other.

A better way to compute the edges of the intereference graph is given
by the following rules.

\begin{itemize}
\item If instruction $I_k$ is a move: (\key{movq} $s$\, $d$), then add
  the edge $(d,v)$ for every $v \in L_{\mathsf{after}}(k)$ unless $v =
  d$ or $v = s$.

\item If instruction $I_k$ is not a move but some other arithmetic
  instruction such as (\key{addq} $s$\, $d$), then add the edge $(d,v)$
  for every $v \in L_{\mathsf{after}}(k)$ unless $v = d$.
  
\item If instruction $I_k$ is of the form (\key{call}
  $\mathit{label}$), then add an edge $(r,v)$ for every caller-save
  register $r$ and every variable $v \in L_{\mathsf{after}}(k)$.
\end{itemize}

Working from the top to bottom of Figure~\ref{fig:live-eg}, $z$
interferes with $x$, $y$ interferes with $z$, and $w$ interferes with
$y$ and $z$.  The resulting interference graph is shown in
Figure~\ref{fig:interfere}.

}
\]

\section{Graph Coloring via Sudoku}

We now come to the main event, mapping variables to registers (or to
stack locations in the event that we run out of registers).  We need
to make sure not to map two variables to the same register if the two
variables interfere with each other.  In terms of the interference
graph, this means we cannot map adjacent nodes to the same register.
If we think of registers as colors, the register allocation problem
becomes the widely-studied graph coloring
problem~\citep{Balakrishnan:1996ve,Rosen:2002bh}.  

The reader may be more familar with the graph coloring problem then he
or she realizes; the popular game of Sudoku is an instance of the
graph coloring problem. The following describes how to build a graph
out of a Sudoku board.
\begin{itemize}
\item There is one node in the graph for each Sudoku square.
\item There is an edge between two nodes if the corresponding squares
  are in the same row or column, or if the squares are in the same
  $3\times 3$ region.
\item Choose nine colors to correspond to the numbers $1$ to $9$.
\item Based on the initial assignment of numbers to squares in the
  Sudoku board, assign the corresponding colors to the corresponding
  nodes in the graph.
\end{itemize}
If you can color the remaining nodes in the graph with the nine
colors, then you've also solved the corresponding game of Sudoku.

Given that Sudoku is graph coloring, one can use Sudoku strategies to
come up with an algorithm for allocating registers. For example, one
of the basic techniques for Sudoku is Pencil Marks. The idea is that
you use a process of elimination to determine what numbers still make
sense for a square, and write down those numbers in the square
(writing very small). At first, each number might be a
possibility, but as the board fills up, more and more of the
possibilities are crossed off (or erased). For example, if the number
$1$ is assigned to a square, then by process of elimination, you can
cross off the $1$ pencil mark from all the squares in the same row,
column, and region. Many Sudoku computer games provide automatic
support for Pencil Marks. This heuristic also reduces the degree of
branching in the search tree.

The Pencil Marks technique corresponds to the notion of color
\emph{saturation} due to \cite{Brelaz:1979eu}.  The
saturation of a node, in Sudoku terms, is the number of possibilities
that have been crossed off using the process of elimination mentioned
above. In graph terminology, we have the following definition:
\begin{equation*}
  \mathrm{saturation}(u) = |\{ c \;|\; \exists v. v \in \mathrm{Adj}(u) 
     \text{ and } \mathrm{color}(v) = c \}|
\end{equation*}
where $\mathrm{Adj}(u)$ is the set of nodes adjacent to $u$ and
the notation $|S|$ stands for the size of the set $S$.

Using the Pencil Marks technique leads to a simple strategy for
filling in numbers: if there is a square with only one possible number
left, then write down that number! But what if there are no squares
with only one possibility left? One brute-force approach is to just
make a guess. If that guess ultimately leads to a solution, great.  If
not, backtrack to the guess and make a different guess.  Of course,
this is horribly time consuming. One standard way to reduce the amount
of backtracking is to use the most-constrained-first heuristic. That
is, when making a guess, always choose a square with the fewest
possibilities left (the node with the highest saturation).  The idea
is that choosing highly constrained squares earlier rather than later
is better because later there may not be any possibilities left.

In some sense, register allocation is easier than Sudoku because we
can always cheat and add more numbers by spilling variables to the
stack. Also, we'd like to minimize the time needed to color the graph,
and backtracking is expensive. Thus, it makes sense to keep the
most-constrained-first heuristic but drop the backtracking in favor of
greedy search (guess and just keep going).
Figure~\ref{fig:satur-algo} gives the pseudo-code for this simple
greedy algorithm for register allocation based on saturation and the
most-constrained-first heuristic, which is roughly equivalent to the
DSATUR algorithm of \cite{Brelaz:1979eu} (also known as
saturation degree ordering
(SDO)~\citep{Gebremedhin:1999fk,Omari:2006uq}).  Just as in Sudoku,
the algorithm represents colors with integers, with the first $k$
colors corresponding to the $k$ registers in a given machine and the
rest of the integers corresponding to stack locations.

\begin{figure}[btp]
  \centering
\begin{lstlisting}[basicstyle=\rmfamily,deletekeywords={for,from,with,is,not,in,find},morekeywords={while},columns=fullflexible]

    @$\mathrm{color}[u] \gets c$@
    @$W \gets W - \{u\}$@
\end{lstlisting}
  \caption{Saturation-based greedy graph coloring algorithm.}
  \label{fig:satur-algo}
\end{figure}


With this algorithm in hand, let us return to the running example and
consider how to color the interference graph in
Figure~\ref{fig:interfere}. Initially, all of the nodes are not yet
colored and they are unsaturated, so we annotate each of them with a
dash for their color and an empty set for the saturation.
\[
\xymatrix{
  v:-,\{\} \ar@{-}[r] & w:-,\{\} \ar@{-}[r]\ar@{-}[d]\ar@{-}[dr] &  x:-,\{\} \ar@{-}[dl]\\
               & y:-,\{\} \ar@{-}[r] & z:-,\{\}
}
\]
We select a maximally saturated node and color it $0$. In this case we
have a 5-way tie, so we arbitrarily pick $y$. The color $0$ is no
longer available for $w$, $x$, and $z$ because they interfere with
$y$.
\[
\xymatrix{
  v:-,\{\} \ar@{-}[r] & w:-,\{0\} \ar@{-}[r]\ar@{-}[d]\ar@{-}[dr] &  x:-,\{0\} \ar@{-}[dl]\\
               & y:0,\{\} \ar@{-}[r] & z:-,\{0\}
}
\]
Now we repeat the process, selecting another maximally saturated node.
This time there is a three-way tie between $w$, $x$, and $z$. We color
$w$ with $1$.
\[
\xymatrix{
  v:-,\{1\} \ar@{-}[r] & w:1,\{0\} \ar@{-}[r]\ar@{-}[d]\ar@{-}[dr] &  x:-,\{0,1\} \ar@{-}[dl]\\
               & y:0,\{1\} \ar@{-}[r] & z:-,\{0,1\}
}
\]
The most saturated nodes are now $x$ and $z$. We color $x$ with the
next avialable color which is $2$.
\[
\xymatrix{
  v:-,\{1\} \ar@{-}[r] & w:1,\{0,2\} \ar@{-}[r]\ar@{-}[d]\ar@{-}[dr] &  x:2,\{0,1\} \ar@{-}[dl]\\
               & y:0,\{1,2\} \ar@{-}[r] & z:-,\{0,1\}
}
\]
We have only two nodes left to color, $v$ and $z$, but $z$ is
more highly saturaded, so we color $z$ with $2$.
\[
\xymatrix{
  v:-,\{1\} \ar@{-}[r] & w:1,\{0,2\} \ar@{-}[r]\ar@{-}[d]\ar@{-}[dr] &  x:2,\{0,1\} \ar@{-}[dl]\\
               & y:0,\{1,2\} \ar@{-}[r] & z:2,\{0,1\}
}
\]
The last iteration of the coloring algorithm assigns color $0$ to $v$.
\[
\xymatrix{
  v:0,\{1\} \ar@{-}[r] & w:1,\{0,2\} \ar@{-}[r]\ar@{-}[d]\ar@{-}[dr] &  x:2,\{0,1\} \ar@{-}[dl]\\
               & y:0,\{1,2\} \ar@{-}[r] & z:2,\{0,1\}
}
\]

With the coloring complete, we can finalize assignment of variables to
registers and stack locations. Recall that if we have $k$ registers,
we map the first $k$ colors to registers and the rest to stack
lcoations. Suppose for the moment that we just have one extra register
to use for register allocation, just \key{rbx}. Then the following is
the mapping of colors to registers and stack allocations.
\[
  \{ 0 \mapsto \key{\%rbx}, \; 1 \mapsto \key{-8(\%rbp)}, \; 2 \mapsto \key{-16(\%rbp)}, \ldots \}
\]
Putting this together with the above coloring of the variables, we
arrive at the following assignment.
\[
  \{ v \mapsto \key{\%rbx}, \;
  w \mapsto \key{-8(\%rbp)},  \;
  x \mapsto \key{-16(\%rbp)}, \;
  y \mapsto \key{\%rbx},  \;
  z\mapsto \key{-16(\%rbp)} \}
\]
Applying this assignment to our running example
(Figure~\ref{fig:reg-eg}) yields the following program.
% why frame size of 32? -JGS
\begin{lstlisting}
(program 32
  (movq (int 1) (reg rbx))
  (movq (int 46) (stack-loc -8))
  (movq (reg rbx) (stack-loc -16))
  (addq (int 7) (stack-loc -16))
  (movq (stack-loc 16) (reg rbx))
  (addq (int 4) (reg rbx))
  (movq (stack-loc -16) (stack-loc -16))
  (addq (stack-loc -8) (stack-loc -16))
  (movq (stack-loc -16) (reg rax))
  (subq (reg rbx) (reg rax)))
\end{lstlisting}
This program is almost an x86 program. The remaining step is to apply
the patch instructions pass. In this example, the trivial move of
\key{-16(\%rbp)} to itself is deleted and the addition of
\key{-8(\%rbp)} to \key{-16(\%rbp)} is fixed by going through
\key{\%rax}. The following shows the portion of the program that
changed.
\begin{lstlisting}

\section{Type Checking $S_1$ Programs}

% T ::= Integer | Boolean

It is common practice to specify a type system by writing rules for
each kind of AST node. For example, the rule for \key{if} is:
\begin{quote}
  For any expressions $e_1, e_2, e_3$ and any type $T$, if $e_1$ has
  type \key{bool}, $e_2$ has type $T$, and $e_3$ has type $T$, then
  $\IF{e_1}{e_2}{e_3}$ has type $T$.
\end{quote}
It is also common practice to write rules using a horizontal line,
with the conditions written above the line and the conclusion written
below the line.
\begin{equation*}
  \inference{e_1 \text{ has type } \key{bool} & 
        e_2 \text{ has type } T & e_3 \text{ has type } T}
  {\IF{e_1}{e_2}{e_3} \text{ has type } T}
\end{equation*}
Because the phrase ``has type'' is repeated so often in these type
checking rules, it is abbreviated to just a colon. So the above rule
is abbreviated to the following.
\begin{equation*}
  \inference{e_1 : \key{bool} & e_2 : T & e_3 : T}
            {\IF{e_1}{e_2}{e_3} : T}
\end{equation*}

The $\LET{x}{e_1}{e_2}$ construct poses an interesting challenge. The
variable $x$ is assigned the value of $e_1$ and then $x$ can be used
inside $e_2$. When we get to an occurrence of $x$ inside $e_2$, how do
we know what type the variable should be?  The answer is that we need
a way to map from variable names to types.  Such a mapping is called a
\emph{type environment} (aka. \emph{symbol table}). The capital Greek
letter gamma, written $\Gamma$, is used for referring to type
environments environments. The notation $\Gamma, x : T$ stands for
making a copy of the environment $\Gamma$ and then associating $T$
with the variable $x$ in the new environment.  We write $\Gamma(x)$ to
lookup the associated type for $x$.  The type checking rules for
\key{let} and variables are as follows.
\begin{equation*}
  \inference{e_1 : T_1 \text{ in } \Gamma &
             e_2 : T_2 \text{ in } \Gamma,x:T_1}
            {\LET{x}{e_1}{e_2} : T_2 \text{ in } \Gamma} 
  \qquad
  \inference{\Gamma(x) = T}
            {x : T \text{ in } \Gamma}
\end{equation*}
Type checking has roots in logic, and logicians have a tradition of
writing the environment on the left-hand side and separating it from
the expression with a turn-stile ($\vdash$).  The turn-stile does not
have any intrinsic meaning per se.  It is punctuation that separates
the environment $\Gamma$ from the expression $e$.  So the above typing
rules are written as follows.
\begin{equation*}
  \inference{\Gamma \vdash e_1 : T_1 &
             \Gamma,x:T_1 \vdash e_2 : T_2}
            {\Gamma \vdash \LET{x}{e_1}{e_2} : T_2} 
   \qquad
  \inference{\Gamma(x) = T}
            {\Gamma \vdash x : T}
\end{equation*}
Overall, the statement $\Gamma \vdash e : T$ is an example of what is
called a \emph{judgment}.  In particular, this judgment says, ``In
environment $\Gamma$, expression $e$ has type $T$.''
Figure~\ref{fig:S1-type-system} shows the type checking rules for
$S_1$.

\section{Utility Functions}
\label{sec:utilities}

The utility function described in this section can be found in the
\key{utilities.rkt} file.

The \key{assert} function displays the error message \key{msg} if the
Boolean \key{bool} is false.
\begin{lstlisting}
(define (assert msg bool) ...)
\end{lstlisting}

The interp-tests function takes a compiler name (a string) a
description of the passes a test family name (a string), and a list of
test numbers, and runs the compiler passes and the interpreters to
check whether the passes correct. The description of the passes is a
list with one entry per pass.  An entry is a list with three things: a
string giving the name of the pass, the function that implements the
pass (a translator from AST to AST), and a function that implements
the interpreter (a function from AST to result value).  This function
assumes that the subdirectory \key{tests} has a bunch of Scheme
programs whose names all start with the family name, followed by an
underscore and then the test number, ending in \key{.scm}. Also, for
each Scheme program there is a file with the same number except that
it ends with \key{.in} that provides the input for the Scheme program.
\begin{lstlisting}
(define (interp-tests name passes test-family test-nums) ...
\end{lstlisting}

The compiler-tests function takes a compiler name (a string) a
description of the passes (see the comment for \key{interp-tests}) a
test family name (a string), and a list of test numbers (see the
comment for interp-tests), and runs the compiler to generate x86 (a
\key{.s} file) and then runs gcc to generate machine code.  It runs
the machine code and checks that the output is 42.
\begin{lstlisting}
(define (compiler-tests name passes test-family test-nums) ...)
\end{lstlisting}

The compile-file function takes a description of the compiler passes
(see the comment for \key{interp-tests}) and returns a function that,
given a program file name (a string ending in \key{.scm}), applies all
of the passes and writes the output to a file whose name is the same
as the proram file name but with \key{.scm} replaced with \key{.s}.
\begin{lstlisting}
(define (compile-file passes)
  (lambda (prog-file-name) ...))
\end{lstlisting}
