Source forms like:

(if (= (point) (point-min)) ...)

or:

(if (eq (point-max) (point)) ...)

are widely used, but compiled as is, which is suboptimal.
The first one can be optimized to (if (bobp) ...) and the
second to (if (eobp) ...), respectively.

Example:

(defun foo (x y)
   (if (= (point) (point-min)) x y))

Suboptimal:

0       point
1       point-min
2       eqlsign
3       goto-if-nil 1
6       varref    x
7       return
8:1     varref    y
9       return

Better:

0       bobp
1       goto-if-nil 1
4       varref    x
5       return
6:1     varref    y
7       return

Thoughts?

Dmitry

Optimise for unidiomatic code in non-performace-critical cases? Not sure
;)

Hi Dimitry,

IMHO a very useful move. However, as this is suboptimal style, probably
fixing the source --and spread the message-- is better than fixing it afterwards.

Fixing the sources will prevent beginners from learning suboptimal habits.

Thanks all,

Andreas

The latter is a bad idea.  You cannot reliably compare integers with
eq in Common Lisp, cf
<URL:http://www.cs.cmu.edu/Groups/AI/html/cltl/clm/node74.html>:

    However, numbers with the same value need not be eq [...]

The current Elisp implementation in Emacs (though possibly not in
XEmacs, and definitely not in GUILE) _does_ implement all integers as
immediate values, but that may well change in future:

    guile
    GNU Guile 2.0.9
    Copyright (C) 1995-2013 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

    Guile comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `,show w'.
    This program is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
    under certain conditions; type `,show c' for details.

    Enter `,help' for help.
    scheme@(guile-user)> (eq? 5 5)
    $1 = #t
    scheme@(guile-user)> (eq? 1234567890123 1234567890123)
    $2 = #f
    scheme@(guile-user)> (let ((x 1234567890123)) (eq? x x))
    $3 = #t
    scheme@(guile-user)> 

Even the Elisp manual states that using '=' is "better programming
practice".  When one wants to avoid the error cases of '=', eql might be
the better choice.

3.4 Comparison of Numbers
=========================

To test numbers for numerical equality, you should normally use ‘=’, not
‘eq’.  There can be many distinct floating-point objects with the same
numeric value.  If you use ‘eq’ to compare them, then you test whether
two values are the same _object_.  By contrast, ‘=’ compares only the
numeric values of the objects.

   In Emacs Lisp, each integer is a unique Lisp object.  Therefore, ‘eq’
is equivalent to ‘=’ where integers are concerned.  It is sometimes
convenient to use ‘eq’ for comparing an unknown value with an integer,
because ‘eq’ does not report an error if the unknown value is not a
number—it accepts arguments of any type.  By contrast, ‘=’ signals an
error if the arguments are not numbers or markers.  However, it is
better programming practice to use ‘=’ if you can, even for comparing
integers.

Shaving off two machine instructions at the cost of almost nothing is a win for
any C/C++ compiler developer. Since our bytecode is much faster than native code,
we don't want to waste our time - it's always better to develop a new major mode
to edit text from Phaistos Disc instead.

I know.

Since such a change will break a lot of things under lisp/ directory,
I don't see practical considerations to make this move in foreseeable
future. Nevertheless, it may be worth trying to enhance bytecomp to
emit warning if at least one operand of 'eq' is a compile-time numeric
constant.

...or a builtin function which always returns an integer, of course.

I am not against it. Just saying if the two saved instructions were on
code people regularly write the gain would be greater.

I grepped through the source tree to see the occurrences. Here's a patch
fixing those I found. I assumed (>= (point) (point-max)) meant (eobp).

(I did this in emacs-24 branch, I dunno if it applies cleanly to trunk).

Indeed, it's very common for compilers to perform optimization of
"silly" expressions like (+ 4 5) or things like that.  The purpose is
not to compensate for the stupidity of the programmer but to eliminate
stupidity introduced by earlier code transformations
(e.g. macro-expansion, inlinling or other optimizations).

If we thing it's undesirable source code, we should add warnings in the
byte-compiler.  If OTOH we think it's perfectly fine source code (saving
the programmer the trouble of remembering the existence and meaning of
bobp/eobp), then it might be worthwhile to add the optimization in the
byte-compiler indeed.

If bignums are enabled, "large" integers do not have an immediate
representation in XEmacs and SXEmacs (where bignums may be enabled by
default by now).  And of course floats and markers do not have an
immediate representation, but they can be = to integers in numerical
comparisons.  Finally, in XEmacs (and SXEmacs) characters and (small)
integers both have immediate representation and can compare equal
numerically, but their representations are different (they're
different types), so a character can never be eq to any integer.
