Air should use RegisterSet for RegLiveness

• Component: JavaScriptCore
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Filip Pizlo]

We shouldn't use those fancy index sparse sets and vectors and stuff.  We should just use RegisterSet, since that's a soooper fast and compact bitvector.

Nice thing!

OK, this will be replaced with specialized RegLiveness, which uses RegisterSet.

OK, it is (logically) identical to the AbstractLiveness one.

Awesome!

Style nit: It feels weird to take a lambda here, and assume that it calls "new" on T, since you call "delete" below. Why not just take arguments for T's constructor that you forward to it?

Or perhaps have two lambdas. One for making a value, one for cleanup

You're right, the lambda is dumb.  It should just take a type parameter and new it, and then it should take an argument pack to pass to the constructor.
