I would expect cif_description to need to be constant (in your example it's i126, which I don't know where it comes from, but it's definitely not a constant). Simple promote should do the trick? On Tue, Dec 30, 2014 at 9:22 PM, Timothy Baldridge <tbaldridge@gmail.com> wrote:
I'm trying to optimize the FFI functionality in Pixie, and I'm not sure how to proceed. From what I understand, the JIT generator is able to optimize away calls to jit_libffi and simply replace them with bare calls to the c functions. However, not matter how I hint or mark things as immutable, I seem to always have a call to "jit_ffi_call_int". What exactly triggers the JIT to remove that call?
The part of the trace involved in the jit call looks like this:

Any ideas?
Thanks,
