llvm dev - Dec 2013 - [LLVMdev] Help with replacing instructions via function pass

Hi,

In my IR code, I have the following:

%arr = alloca [30 x i8], align 1
%arraydecay = getelementptr inbounds [16 x i8]* %arr, i32 0, i32 0
%arraydecay1 = getelementptr inbounds [16 x i8]* %arr, i32 0, i32 0

I'm trying to change the capacity of arr via a function pass. I've
written the following code in my function pass:

ArrayType* b = ArrayType::get(IntegerType::get(getGlobalContext(), 8), 10);
AllocaInst* pa = new AllocaInst(b, "arr");
//I  is an instruction pointer currently pointing to %arr = alloca [30 x i8],
align 1
I->replaceAllUsesWith(pa);        
I->eraseFromParent();
I->getParent()->getInstList().insert(*I, pa);

When I run the pass, I run into the following error:

Stack dump:

How can I fix it?

Thanks,
