RELAXING USER-SPECIFIED REGISTER CONSTRAINTS FOR IMPROVING REGISTER ALLOCATION

摘要

A method is provided for relaxing register constraints in a computer program. The method includes identifying, by a processor enabled compiler, unrequired register constraints imposed by a user on the computer program. The unrequired register constraints are unrequired for a proper operation of the computer program. The method further includes automatically relaxing, by the processor enabled compiler, the identified unrequired register constraints to optimize register allocation for the computer program.
