Ok, I had a look at the proposal and it is mostly fine. I'd be more specific
on the deliverables, specifically
1) genmatch - program to read meta description and generate code to
simplify GENERIC and GIMPLE according to the pattern descriptions
using an algorithm not linear in the number of patterns
2) add patterns matched by tree-ssa-forwprop.c (and thus patterns
in fold-const.c it depends on) to the meta-description and perform
the simplifications of tree-ssa-forwprop.c in terms of the simplification API
You will figure out that there are possibly a lot of patterns in fold-const.c
that forwprop depends on (I know mainly of all the comparison simplifications).
For the Timeline I'd move e) as a sub-task of f) to June 28 - July 16,
eventually just dividing the weeks of July 17 - August 11 to that and
the following task.
That is, the overall deliverable should be a tree-ssa-forwprop.c that is
(mostly) implemented in terms of patterns, ready for commit to trunk
during stage1.
As for targeting GENERIC, useful testing coverage of that path will
come from for example re-writing fold-const.c:fold_comparison using
the GENERIC API of the pattern simplifier.
The devil will be in the details (as always) ;)
As Maxim said - make sure to register your proposal in-time, you
can always improve on it later.
Thanks,
Richard.
