llvm dev - Oct 2011 - [LLVMdev] Using a FunctionPass inside a CallGraphSCCPass

Hi,

I am writing a CallGraphSCCPass that uses LoopInfo which is a FunctionPass.
However, doing so results in the following error.
****
Unable to schedule 'Natural Loop Information' required by
'......'
****

Google led me to this page, where Devang Patel suggests implementing the
addLowerLevelRequiredPasses in CGPassManager in a manner similar to
MPPassManager.
http://old.nabble.com/DominatorTree-Information-required-in-CallGraphPass-td
21968640.html

I tried this but to get analysis passes on the fly I need to use
FunctionPassManagerImpl in CallGraphSCCPass.cpp which I cannot because it is
not part of any header file.
I tried  using FunctionPassManager but it does not implement
getOnTheFlyPass() required by getAnalysis(). I also tried putting
CGPassManager in PassManager.cpp (and therefore in libLLVMCore.a ?) but the
build failed due to a cyclic dependency between libLLVMCore.a,
libLLVMAnalysis.a and libLLVMipa.a.

Any pointers to resolving this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

Is there any guiding principle that has been used to structure the Pass
Manager infrastructure related header files. I ask because I see a number of
pass managers documented in PassManagers.h but most, except FPPassManager
and a couple others, reside in PassManagers.cpp.

I want to move FunctionPassManagerImpl into PassManagers.h so that it can be
used inside CGPassManager. I want to be able to run function passes on the
fly in a CallGraphSCCPass and I think FunctionPassManagerImpl is the only
way to do it. Or am I wrong in this conclusion ?
