llvm dev - Feb 2013 - [LLVMdev] How to get block with a backedge

I can get the loop header block by using

getAnalysis < LoopInfo > ( *F ).isLoopHeader( BB )

But is there any way with with you can also check the blocks containing
backedge.

Usually, the loop header is the BB with the backedge. You can get the
number of backedges by using "getNumBackEdges()" of the LoopInfo pass.

You can also use the DominatorTree directly to search for backedges.
