[Beignet] a question about default optimize option when building

[彭席汉]

Any way to tell compiler I have no side effect for memory pointer p and I don't want to load it again?

Some additional analysis based on ruiling's comment.

The second load from p(to calculate res2) may or may not be issued.
It depends on whether there are some side effect instructions between
res1 and res2's assignment. For example, if there is a store instruction
or there is a barrier, the second load will be issued and you will see
two loads for the same pointer in the final instruction stream.

As to the a * b + c*d, it will always be optimized and be reused when
calculate for res2 which means at the res2 assignment it will only
generate one add instruction to add the 1 to the previous calculated
value.
