Lawrence Crowl 5d59b5e18a This patch implements generic type query and conversion functions,
and applies them to the use of cgraph_node, varpool_node, and symtab_node.

The functions are:

bool is_a <TYPE> (pointer)
  Tests whether the pointer actually points to a more derived TYPE.

TYPE *as_a <TYPE> (pointer)
  Converts pointer to a TYPE*.

TYPE *dyn_cast <TYPE> (pointer)
  Converts pointer to TYPE* if and only if "is_a <TYPE> pointer".
  Otherwise, returns NULL.
  This function is essentially a checked down cast.

These functions reduce compile time and increase type safety when treating a
generic item as a more specific item.  In essence, the code change is from

  if (symtab_function_p (node))
    {
      struct cgraph_node *cnode = cgraph (node);
      ....
    }

to

  if (cgraph_node *cnode = dyn_cast <cgraph_node> (node))
    {
      ....
    }

The necessary conditional test defines a variable that holds a known good
pointer to the specific item and avoids subsequent conversion calls and
the assertion checks that may come with them.

When, the property test is embedded within a larger condition, the variable
declaration gets pulled out of the condition.  (This leaves some room for
using the variable inappropriately.)

  if (symtab_variable_p (node)
      && varpool (node)->finalized)
    varpool_analyze_node (varpool (node));

becomes

  varpool_node *vnode = dyn_cast <varpool_node> (node);
  if (vnode && vnode->finalized)
    varpool_analyze_node (vnode);

Note that we have converted two sets of assertions in the calls to varpool
into safe and efficient use of a variable.


There are remaining calls to symtab_function_p and symtab_variable_p that
do not involve a pointer to a more specific type.  These have been converted
to calls to a functions is_a <cgraph_node> and is_a <varpool_node>.  The
original predicate functions have been removed.

The cgraph.h header defined both a struct and a function with the name
varpool_node.  This name overloading can cause some unintuitive error messages
when, as is common in C++, one omits the struct keyword when using the type.
I have renamed the function to varpool_node_for_decl.

Tested on x86_64.
