Hi! I generated C code with Matlab Coder can I realize that there are a lot of such unnecessary copying. What can I do to avoid that?
for (i0 = 0; i0 < 153; i0++) {
dv42[i0] = dv74[i0];
dv43[i0] = dv75[i0];
} ...
for (i0 = 0; i0 < 153; i0++) {
dv74[i0] = dv42[i0];
dv75[i0] = dv43[i0];
} ...
for (i0 = 0; i0 < 153; i0++) {
dv42[i0] = dv74[i0];
dv43[i0] = dv75[i0];
}
I have a structure in Matlab similar to what is below and right before the subfunction is called, the generated C code is doing the unnecessary copying instead of taking 'a' directly as an input of the subfunction.
function output = main_function(a)
... a = [1;2;3]; ...
output_sub = subfunction(a)
The copying would be appropriate if the subfunction modifies its input, which we cannot determine from what you show.
Why are you passing "a" into main_function and also assigning a value to it?
'a' is first used somewhere before it is reassigned with another value. But right before it is fed into 'subfunction', 'a' is copied to another temporary variable, e.g. 'dv74' then the latter is copied to 'dv42' and 'dv42' is copied back to 'dv74' and 'dv74' is again copied to 'dv42' and finally subfunction takes 'dv42' as input. What can I do to avoid this unnecessary copying?

If you post a small example of MATLAB code which produces this, we may be able to give some suggestions.
