entities.rs

1//! Cranelift IR entity references.
2//!
3//! Instructions in Cranelift IR need to reference other entities in the function. This can be other
4//! parts of the function like basic blocks or stack slots, or it can be external entities
5//! that are declared in the function preamble in the text format.
6//!
7//! These entity references in instruction operands are not implemented as Rust references both
8//! because Rust's ownership and mutability rules make it difficult, and because 64-bit pointers
9//! take up a lot of space, and we want a compact in-memory representation. Instead, entity
10//! references are structs wrapping a `u32` index into a table in the `Function` main data
11//! structure. There is a separate index type for each entity type, so we don't lose type safety.
12//!
13//! The `entities` module defines public types for the entity references along with constants
14//! representing an invalid reference. We prefer to use `Option<EntityRef>` whenever possible, but
15//! unfortunately that type is twice as large as the 32-bit index type on its own. Thus, compact
16//! data structures use the `PackedOption<EntityRef>` representation, while function arguments and
17//! return values prefer the more Rust-like `Option<EntityRef>` variant.
18//!
19//! The entity references all implement the `Display` trait in a way that matches the textual IR
20//! format.
