The new @llvm.memcpy API does not have an alignment parameter. Instead the docs say to use the align <n> attribute. How is this supposed to work with different alignments? For example, I have one memcpy with align 4, align 4, and another with align 1, align 1. ; Function Attrs: argmemonly nounwind declare void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i64(i8* nocapture writeonly align 4, i8* nocapture

Good day all, I’ve spent a few days resurrecting the circa-2015 work on removing the explicit alignment argument (4th arg) from the @llvm.memcpy/memmove/memset intrinsics in favour of using the alignment attribute on the pointer args of calls to the intrinsic. This work was first proposed back in August 2015 by Lang Hames: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2015-August/089384.html (item

Hi Tim, I may be missing something but using CCPassByVal is moving the pointer onto the stack - not what I'm after. I need to add an operation to the function prolog that actually makes a copy of the pointed to data. It is the responsibility of the callee to make the copy, not the caller - hence my trouble. (currently the callee can corrupt the original data viz pass-by-reference!) This

Hi Tim, Thank you for the input. I think I follow you. I believe the LowerCall is doing what it needs to do - passing pointer either on the stack or in register as per ABI. The LowerFormalArguments() is where I am stuck. LowerFormalArguments () calls CCInfo.AnalyzeFormalArguments(Ins, CC_XCore), which calls the CC_XCore(). This is where I placed the CCIfByVal<CCPassByVal<0,4>> which

Hi all, A quick note just to let people know that as of this past Friday my go at this work has been fully landed. It ended up being a back-burner item, so it took longer than I would have liked to get completed. None the less, the changes made were: 1) The IRBuilders in LLVM, Clang, and Polly were all updated to create only the new form of the memory intrinsics. 2) All LLVM passes to understand

Hi all, This change has been reviewed, and appears to be ready to land (review available here if anyone still wants to chime in: https://reviews.llvm.org/D41675 ). The process that we’re going to use for landing this will take a few steps. To wit: Step 1) Remove align argument, and add align attribute to pointer args. Require that src & dest have the same alignment via verifier rule. Also

Hi Daniel, a quick question (and kind-of a follow-up to <https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-July/115665.html>): Do the pointers have to be aligned even if the size is 0? It would be nice to have this stated explicitly in the LangRef.
