You can insert a declaration of the function into the IR, then

Dear experts, I am learning llvm by reading documents and have a question to ask. The following is the example of code generation that I created. [[a [10.00]] > [3.00]] ; ModuleID = 'ExprF' define i1 @expr(double* %record) { entry: %0 = getelementptr double* %record, i32 0 ; <double*> [#uses=1] %1 = load double* %0 ; <double>

hi i want replacing a global variable by a constant value for erase instruction. i had seen the code that as follows for (llvm::GlobalVariable::use_iterator U = gv->use_begin(); U != gv->use_end();--U ) { llvm::Instruction *I = llvm::cast<llvm::Instruction>(U); I->replaceAllUsesWith(constPtr); I->eraseFromParent(); } but i dont know how can declare constptr.

Thanks a lot for your help Matthijs! :) basically this does the job quite nicely I think: for (llvm::GlobalVariable::use_iterator U = gv->use_begin(); U != gv->use_end(); ++U) { llvm::Instruction *I = llvm::cast<llvm::Instruction>(U); I->replaceAllUsesWith(constPtr); I->eraseFromParent(); } Cheers, Ralf Matthijs Kooijman wrote: > Hi Ralf, > > >> I

Hi nada, > i want replacing a global variable by a constant value for erase instruction. I'm not sure what you mean exactly. A GlobalVariable has pointer type. Do you want to replace that pointer by a constant pointer? Or is it rather that you want to say that the contents of the memory pointed to by the GlobalVariable is constant, and have all places that load that GlobalVariable

I am trying to cast a Value* irrespective of its underlying subclass to uint64 and pass it on to a method as an argument. if (StoreInst *store_inst = dyn_cast<StoreInst>(&I)) { Value* vo = store_inst->getValueOperand(); uint64 value = /* cast vo to unsigned int 64 bit */ func(value); } How can I force

Hi all, I can get access to the data stored in globals as follows: GlobalVariable* pGvarAct=_set_a_valid_global_; const_ptr_indicesVec=_the_indexes_ llvm::Constant* pConst; pConst=ConstantExpr::getGetElementPtr(pGvarAct, const_ptr_indicesVec); and e.g. use this to repalece an argumrnt of an instruction like: I->setOperand(someArgumentIndex,pConst); However, getGetElementPtr returns a

Hi Ralf, > I am trying to replace a global variable with a constant. You should be able to replace the initializer for the global with your constant, mark it as having internal linkage and then run some optimization pass over it to do the rest (not sure which one it was again, probably some constant propagation or global value optimization). That pass would then probably do some similar

I would like to have your comments regarding: 1) drivers/rhino.c ------------------ The following patch addresses some problems in drivers/rhino.c. Or that is what I think. I don't use this hardware. The patch: 1. Eliminates some usefulness definitions. 2. It removes code that evaluate the time. I can't see how the code actually does useful work. 3. The

Hi, I need to control IRBuilder(or manage IR building with other means) very strictly. The problem is in the realm of ConstInt/GlobalVariable handling, more precisely: LLVM converts llvm::ConstantInt values to GlobalVariable addresses ad-hoc if I store a constant in a GlobalVariable, and it appears to me, that I can do nothing about it. Consider the following, shortened code: ... 0x18: r2 =

Hi, I am trying to replace a global variable with a constant. I did manage to do it, but somehow it appears to be fairly bruteforce by just iterating over all functions/bblocks/instructions and filtering for those that load the variable and replacing the instruction with Instruction::replaceAllUsesWith(). The more intuitive way of iterating over the uses of the variable did not work out as I

Dear all, let say I have following list: Dat <- vector("list", length = 26) names(Dat) <- LETTERS My_Function <- function(x) return(rnorm(5)) Dat1 <- lapply(Dat, My_Function) However I want to apply my function 'My_Function' for all elements of 'Dat' except the elements having 'names(Dat) == "P"'. Here I have specified the name

I have something like this on my code :- vector<Value*> args3; args3.push_back(instr->getOperand(0)); //where 'instr' is store instruction Now when I check the Type of instr->getOperand(0). It varies to i32 and i64, depending on the operand(0) of instruction. Due to which my vector<Value*> has different Type of Value*. How can I convert i32 to i64 type before pushing
