# PHI and SSA in Nyash
|
||||
|
||||
Overview
|
||||
- Nyash lowers high-level control flow (If/Loop/Match) to MIR and backends that rely on SSA form.
|
||||
- We prioritize IR hygiene and observability while keeping runtime cost at zero.
|
||||
|
||||
Design points
|
||||
- PHI hygiene: no empty PHIs; PHIs at block head only.
|
||||
- JoinResult hint: when both branches assign the same variable, we emit a MIR hint for diagnostics.
|
||||
- Loop carriers: loops may expose a carrier observation (≤ N variables, where N is unconstrained by design; smokes emphasize common cases).
|
||||
|
||||
Normalization
|
||||
- If: may optionally wrap into LoopForm under a conservative gate (dev only). Semantics remain unchanged.
|
||||
- Match: scrutinee evaluated once, guard fused; normalized to nested If‑chain in macro/core pass.
|
||||
|
||||
Testing
|
||||
- LLVM smokes: fixed small cases ensure no empty PHIs and head placement.
|
||||
- MIR smokes: trace `scope|join|loop` to validate shaping without peeking into IR details.
|
||||
|
||||
Roadmap
|
||||
- Remove text-level sanitization once finalize‑PHI is trustworthy across Loop/If/Match.
|
||||
- Expand goldens to cover nested joins and multi‑carrier loops while keeping CI light.
