oh ok, so CSE / sharing for string and numerical literals? On Fri, Sep 21, 2018 at 1:23 AM Phyx wrote:

I simply mean that the same constant is not emitted more than once to memory. I.e. If a constant string is used twice, there is only one value in .rodata for it.

what precisely do you mean by constant pooling? i can guess several meanings, but what do you mean specifically?

Hi All,

I'm hoping someone here can save me some time. I'm working on something that relies on constants in the same translation unit being pooled before assembly.

I've noticed GHC does some const pooling at -O1 , but this doesn't seem to be very consistent, which leads me to believe this is a byproduct of another optimization rather than an explicit thing.

I couldn't find anything obvious in the sources, so does GHC intentionally do constant pooling already? Or do I need a new pass to guarantee it.

Thanks, Tamar
