Subject: [PATCH 1/2] [dataflow] Add global condition to
DataflowAnalysisContext
This records facts that are not sensitive to the current flow condition,
and should apply to all environments.
The motivating case is recording information about where a Value
originated, such as nullability:
- we may see the same Value for multiple expressions (e.g. reads of the
same field) in multiple environments (multiple blocks or iterations)
- we want to record information only when we first see the Value
(e.g. Nullability annotations on fields only add information if we
don't know where the value came from)
- this information should be expressible as a SAT condition
- we must add this SAT condition to every environment where the
Value may appear
We solve this by recording the information in the global condition.
This doesn't seem particularly elegant, but solves the problem and is
a fairly small and natural extension of the Environment.
Alternatives considered:
- store the constraint directly as a property on the Value.
But it's more composable for such properties to always be variables
(AtomicBoolValue), and constrain them with SAT conditions.
- add a hook whenever values are created, giving the analysis the
chance to populate them.
However the framework relies on/provides the ability to construct
values in arbitrary places without providing the context such a hook
would need, this would be a very invasive change.
