Hi, I have a question about the modify of instruction: Say I want to modify %a = getelementptr %struct %S, long 0, ubyte 1 into %a.f0 = getelementptr int* %S.f0, long 0 There are 3 ways I can think of to implement, but I'm not sure what should I do. 1. I can use new GetElementPtr to create a new instruction and use ReplaceInstWithInst() function to replace the old one. 2. I can use new

Dear Prof. Adve, Now I can use llvmgcc to compile a .c file into .bc file. But I still have trouble simply run the .bc code. Below is the sequence I got when I tried. I really don't know what's going on here. Please let me know how can I fix it.

Dear Prof. Adve, I recently checked out the llvm using cvs update command under the llvm directory. But when I went to see the DSNode.h, there is no getPointerSize function. I checked the doxygen tree, it's there. So that means I didn't update my cvs tree correctly. Could you let me know how to update my CVS tree? Or there is a problem at somewhere else?

Hi, Thanks both of you for the help. I just missed that Create function had many optional arguments... sorry for that. However my problem wasn't coming from here (IRBuilder CreateCall function still return a pointer to CallInst so I just added 2 times the call?). I didn't wanted to detail the all issue previously because I knew I had a problem with my syntax. So here's my problem: I

Hi everyone, I am trying to replace the call of a certain function with a call to another function. It would for example replace the following: %call = tail call noalias i8* @func(i64 10) by %call = tail call noalias i8* @other_func(i64 10) I managed to declare other_func correctly but I am having troubles to understand how I should proceed to do the replacement. I tried to use

Thanks, Chris, Below is the output of 'llvmgcc he.c -v' xli3|csil-suna27|~/cs426|[35]% llvmgcc he.c -v Reading specs from /usr/dcs/projects/cs426/Software/gcc_install/bin/../lib/gcc-lib/llvm/3.1/specs Configured with: /home/vadve/lattner/cvs/gcc/configure --srcdir=/home/vadve/lattner/cvs/gcc --prefix=/home/vadve/lattner/cvs/gcc_install_sparc --target=llvm --enable-languages=c

The problem with llvmgcc invoking as instead of llvm-as has been fixed. 3 llvm-specific executables needed to be copied into a default location where gcc can find them if it does not find them as configured (gcc was configured for the paths on our research machines and copied over). Let us know if you have additional problems. --Vikram > -----Original Message----- > From: llvmdev-admin

When I try to do this: GetElementPtrInst *newIns = new GetElementPtrInst( ... ); OldIns->ReplaceAllUsesWith( newIns ); When I compile the code, it always says, no matching function for call to `GetElementPtrInst::ReplaceAllUsesWith (GetElementPtrInst *&)' But since GetElementPtrInst is a subclass of Value, why cannot use this way? What's wrong here? thanks, xiaodong

Sorry I got really overwhelmed by so many classes and member functions in LLVM. So would you please clarify some problems I have? 1. If I see this instruction in the function. %S.i = alloca %struct.SimpleStruct Suppose SimpleStruct is as following: struct.SimpleStruct = type { int, double } When I read the instruction, how can I know the type of simplstruct, should I use 'getType'

I have a question about GetElementPtr. Suppose I have an GetElementPtr Instruction GI: %reg = getelementptr %ST* %s, uint 1, ubyte 2, ubyte 1, uint 5, uint 13 I want to check if this is the reference of a component of a structure, how can I do that? Should I check which operand of this instruction is 'ubyte' type? How can I do that in code? should I use ubyte *a =

When I check out llvm this morning. I got this error, so I couldn't check out. Looks like the disk is full.. Please let me know how to fix this problem.

In the section expaining "dyn_cast" There are following lines of code: if (AllocationInst *AI = dyn_cast<AllocationInst>(Val)) { ... } I cannot understand how you take a operand, a value, and cast it into a Instruction. Can you explain it for me? Another common example is: // Loop over all of the phi nodes in a basic block BasicBlock::iterator BBI =

I'll try to answer these because Chris is really busy this week. > From: Xiaodong Li <xli3 at santoor.cs.uiuc.edu> > Subject: [LLVMdev] DSGraph questions > Sender: llvmdev-admin at cs.uiuc.edu > Date: Sun, 10 Nov 2002 11:25:53 -0600 (CST) > > 1.

1. What is the difference between DSNodeHandle and DSNode? What do the functions getLink() and getSize() do? 2. In the previous email, you mentioned that we can use DSNode::getPointerSize() to get the number of links, But I checked the doxygen documentation, there is no such member for DSNode. 3. Previously I use the following code: for( df_iterator<DSNode*> I = df_begin(pnode),

I am trying to change this define void @main(float* noalias %arg0, float* noalias %arg1, float* noalias %arg2) { entrypoint: %0 = bitcast float* %arg1 to <4 x float>* intothis define void @main(float* noalias %arg0, float* noalias %arg1, float* noalias %arg2) { entrypoint: %0 = getelementptr float* %arg1, i64 0 %1 = bitcast float* %0 to <4 x float>* I must be close but

Dear LLVM: I wrote a small testcase and I can compiler and run it with gcc, But with llvm, I got weird error like the following. I really don't know what's going on. Could you explain?

Hello everyone, I wanted to copy a function from one file to another. The file that I wanted to copy the function into contains a function with the same name and same number of instructions. I decided to just replace the instructions with those of the other function. I am doing all of this from within a function pass. *1.* I created a function pass in which I extract a function using

Hi, In my source code, I have the following declaration char a[30]; When I'm running the following (Assuming that I is an instruction pointer pointing to the instruction to be replaced, i.e. %a = alloca [30 x i8], align 1): ArrayType* arr = ArrayType::get(IntegerType::get(getGlobalContext(), 8), 10); AllocaInst* pa = new AllocaInst(arr, "blah"); BasicBlock::iterator ii(*I);

Hello, I have a call to ReplaceInstWithInst(Instruction *From, Instruction *To) inside of a for loop iterating through a BasicBlock::iterator. On the very next pass after I replace the instruction, the iterator appears to be invalidated. Is this supposed to happen or am I doing something silly? Is there a more appropriate way to do this? Thanks, -Justin
