| ;; CHECK-NEXT: |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: This tool performs dead code elimination (DCE) on a larger space that the wasm |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: module is just a part of. For example, if you have JS and wasm that are |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: connected, this can DCE the combined graph. By doing so, it is able to eliminate |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: wasm module exports, which otherwise regular optimizations cannot. |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: This tool receives a representation of the reachability graph that the wasm |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: module resides in, which contains abstract nodes and connections showing what |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: they reach. Some of those nodes can represent the wasm module's imports and |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: exports. The tool then completes the graph by adding the internal parts of the |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: module, and does DCE on the entire thing. |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: This tool will output a wasm module with dead code eliminated, and metadata |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: describing the things in the rest of the graph that can be eliminated as well. |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: The graph description file should represent the graph in the following JSON-like |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: notation (note, this is not true JSON, things like comments, escaping, |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: single-quotes, etc. are not supported): |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: [ |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: { |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: "name": "entity1", |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: "reaches": ["entity2, "entity3"], |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: "root": true |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: }, |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: { |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: "name": "entity2", |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: "reaches": ["entity1, "entity4"] |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: }, |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: { |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: "name": "entity3", |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: "reaches": ["entity1"], |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: "export": "export1" |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: }, |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: { |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: "name": "entity4", |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: "import": ["module", "import1"] |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: }, |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: ] |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: Each entity has a name and an optional list of the other entities it reaches. It |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: can also be marked as a root, export (with the export string), or import (with |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: the module and import strings). DCE then computes what is reachable from the |
| ;; CHECK-NEXT: roots. |
