Consider at vec_var_usage creation time, setting a usage->comps (or<br>
similar) to "(1u << num_var_components) - 1". Some cheap savings here<br>
and in other passes, also would result in less noise lines here and<br>
there.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I considered it at one point but decided against it. After going through the exercise at your suggestion, there were a lot more occurrences than I thought.

Since once level->has_external_copy is set we don't really use the<br>
levels_copied, maybe wrap the bootstrap/set block with if<br>
(!level->has_external_copy)?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>_mesa_set_add is cheap and I think I'd rather keep track of all the internal copies for now in case this pass changes to need them.

After reading I thought here and in the fix-point loop would be a<br>
better call to iterate directly var_usage_map. Due to the way we<br>
reuse var_usage_map, we would have to skip based on modes, which kind<br>
of spoil things a bit, but maybe still a win. Or use different sets<br>
and join them for the final step... Probably won't make much<br>
difference.<br>

<br>
Could we set both sides here, i.e. do<br>
"copy_usage->comps_kept = var_usage->comps_kept"? The reasoning<br>
is that it might save an iteration, e.g. A <-> C and B <-> C,<br>
but iteration happens in order: A, B then C. Information from A<br>
will take two iterations to propagate to B.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Sure. Easy enough to do. At first I thought it wouldn't save us anything so I didn't do it but I wasn't thinking about the third variable. You're right, it may be more efficient.

Add a break here. The rest of the loop execution would try to find a<br>
shrink situation, but regardless the result it will be ignored since<br>
we bail when comps_kept == 0.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Done.<br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
