I'm studying the GCC Internals manual from the tree-ssa branch. Although Chapter 7 describes the high-level process of going from language-specific trees to GENERIC, then lowering to GIMPLE and finally going through the various SSA and non-SSA passes is described in sufficient detail, there seems to be no information on the GENERIC and GIMPLE representations themselves.
Chapter 8 describes C and C++ front end specific trees, but there seems to be a complete disconnect with tree-ssa.
Chapter 9, which deals with analysis and optimization of GIMPLE trees starts with a small introduction that refers to "the chapter describing GENERIC and GIMPLE" for more details.
I wonder where this chapter is... can anyone give some pointers? This seems a major piece of documentation that definitely should be in the GCC Internals manual before the merge.
