Hi, The poolalloc library fails in TransformFunctionBody.cpp, line 746 --- Value *ArgVal = ConstantAggregateZero::get(PoolAllocate::PoolDescPtrTy); --- opt -load /path_to_lib/libpoolalloc.dylib -poolalloc constaggr.bc -o opt.bc -f triggers the problem (bc file attached). Assertion failed: ((isa<StructType>(Ty) || isa<ArrayType>(Ty) || isa<VectorType>(Ty)) &&

You might want to have a look at PoolAllocate.h. Per function, a PA::FuncInfo structure keeps track of all DSNodes that should be pool allocated. ArgNodes contains pool arguments, NodesToPA contains nodes that are locally pool allocated and thus initialized using poolinit. PoolDescriptors contains a mapping from DSNodes to pool descriptors, and you could easily invert this mapping. Finding a

I figure (hopefully correctly) that I can iterate over all pool descriptors in a program by iterating over all users of poolinit and looking at the first argument. However, once I have a pool descriptor, I need to get its corresponding DSNode in the function in which it is complete (or in the global graph if it is a global). How do I do this? Thanks, --Patrick

Harmen, your suggestion of inverting the mapping almost worked (and Andrew was correct that the function I need is the same as the one in which poolinit appears). Unfortunately, it appears that this mapping only considers the original function and not any of its clones. Since the pool descriptor in question may very well only exist in a clone, I can't use this. Is there another way?

Thanks for all your help so far. My problem is that what I have are the pool descriptors, which I by traversing the uses of poolinit and accessing the first argument of each call. I need to find the DSNode (in the original function) to which this pool descriptor corresponds. The rub is that this pool descriptor of course does not exist except in the clone. If I call getFuncInfo(), I get a

Hi Patrick, That's right. DSNodes are coupled to the original function. For function clones, you first need to get the original function, and then use the DSNode from that function. FuncInfo contains the information if a function is a clone and what the original function is. If you want to find the corresponding DSNode for some instruction, you must call PA::FuncInfo::MapValueToOriginal(
