Dead Code Elimination (DCE)
Performs DCE by constructing a global dependency graph starting with top-level outputs, external module ports, and simulation constructs as circuit sinks. External modules can optionally be eligible for DCE via the OptimizableExtModuleAnnotation.
Dead code is eliminated across module boundaries. Wires, ports, registers, and memories are all eligible for removal. Components marked with a DontTouchAnnotation will be treated as a circuit sink and thus anything that drives such a marked component will NOT be removed.
This transform preserves deduplication. All instances of a given firrtl.ir.DefModule are treated as the same individual module. Thus, while certain instances may have dead code due to the circumstances of their instantiation in their parent module, they will still not be removed. To remove such modules, use the NoDedupAnnotation to prevent deduplication.
