I am using LLVM 2.6 and I have a question on the use of the BasicBlock::iterator to hoist loop invariant instructions to the loop preheader. When I process the instructions backward as shown in the following code, I got the following error right after the "hoist(I)" is done. Can anyone advise whether I am misusing BasicBlock::iterator? /opt/llvms/src/llvm_26/ include/llvm/ADT/ilist.h:213: llvm::ilist_iterator<NodeTy>& llvm::ilist_iterator<NodeTy>::operator--() [with NodeTy = llvm::Instruction]: Assertion `NodePtr && "--'d off the beginning of an ilist!"' failed. *LICM::HOistRegion(DomTreeNode *N)* { assert(N != 0 && "Null dominator tree node?"); BasicBlock *BB = N->getBlock(); ... * for (BasicBlock::iterator II = BB->end(); II != BB->begin(); ) *{ Instruction &I = *--II; if (isLoopInvariantInst(I) && canSinkOrHoistInst(I) && isSafeToExecuteUnconditionally(I)) * hoist(I);* } .. } -- UGR -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
