Question about Alias Analysis with restrict keyword
...3] may alias, Mod/Ref   Pointers: (i8* %11, 1), (i8* %10, 1), (i8* %16, 1)   AliasSet[0x4a1e440, 1] must alias, Mod        forwarding to 0x4a1e3a0 Alias analysis returns 'May- alias' for above code. When I look at the alias analysis code, below code causes may-alias.

Maurice, can you please provide a test case that demonstrates the problem that you're seeing? Dan, where in the code is this done? I see a comment at the end of BasicAliasAnalysis::aliasGEP regarding "protecting TBAA in the case of dynamic indices into arrays of unions"; are you referring to that? -Hal > > Dan > > _______________________________________________ > LLVM Developers mailing list > LLVMdev at cs.uiuc.edu http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu >...

[LLVMdev] inttoptr and basicaa
...The reason is that nothing inside basicaa processes inttoptr; the fall through case of using TBAA (int and long long in this case) is executed and NoAlias is returned as the pointer types are different. I have two questions. 1) Is it safe for basicaa to reason about inttoptr in a manner similar to aliasGEP (using decomposeGEPExpression to symbolically evaluate the pointer). 2) If the answer to the above is no, then shouldn't basicaa treat the above conservatively before it looks at TBAA ?

If we can prove the difference between two pointer values is a compile-time constant (in this case, zero), we can return NoAlias/MustAlias/etc. based purely on that. That said, GEP makes special aliasing guarantees which ar...

[LLVMdev] tbaa differences in llvm 3.0
Our application generates IR that is used to generate X86_64 code for a Jit. We noticed that code generated with llvm 3.0 is worse in some circumstances that it was with 2.9. I traced the differences to alias analysis differences. Our IR references data structures that have lots of derived pointers and we use extensive tbaa metadata to indicate which pointers dont alias. Some of this seemed to be
