Specifically, if instead of allocating a closure for @x@, we saved all @x@'s fvs on the stack, and remembered the stack depth at that moment, then whenever we enter @x@ we can simply set the stack pointer(s) to these remembered (compile-time-fixed) values, and jump to the code for @x@. All of this is provided x is: \begin{enumerate} \item non-updatable; \item guaranteed to be entered before the stack retreats -- ie x is not buried in a heap-allocated closure, or passed as an argument to something; \item all the enters have exactly the right number of arguments, no more no less; \item all the enters are tail calls; that is, they return to the caller enclosing the definition of @x@. \end{enumerate} Under these circumstances we say that @x@ is {\em non-escaping}. An example of when (4) does {\em not} hold: \begin{verbatim} let x = ... in case x of ...alts... \end{verbatim} Here, @x@ is certainly entered only when the stack is deeper than when @x@ is defined, but here it must return to \tr{...alts...} So we can't just adjust the stack down to @x@'s recalled points, because that would lost @alts@' context. Things can get a little more complicated. Consider: \begin{verbatim} let y = ... in let x = fvs \ args -> ...y... in ...x... \end{verbatim} Now, if @x@ is used in a non-escaping way in \tr{...x...}, {\em and} @y@ is used in a non-escaping way in \tr{...y...}, {\em then} @y@ is non-escaping. @x@ can even be recursive! Eg: \begin{verbatim} letrec x = [y] \ [v] -> if v then x True else ... in ...(x b)... \end{verbatim} %************************************************************************ %* * \subsection[codeGen-for-non-escaping]{Generating code for a ``non-escaping let''} %* * %************************************************************************ Generating code for this is fun. It is all very very similar to what we do for a case expression. The duality is between \begin{verbatim} let-no-escape x = b in e \end{verbatim} and \begin{verbatim} case e of ... -> b \end{verbatim} That is, the RHS of @x@ (ie @b@) will execute {\em later}, just like the alternative of the case; it needs to be compiled in an environment in which all volatile bindings are forgotten, and the free vars are bound only to stable things like stack locations.. The @e@ part will execute {\em next}, just like the scrutinee of a case. First, we need to save all @x@'s free vars on the stack, if they aren't there already. \begin{code}
