Hi Xin, Thank you for your reply! I have tried the 3 alias analyses you have mentioned on LLVM 3.5: 1) $ opt -globalsmodref-aa -aa-eval < xxx.bc > /dev/null (May-alias response 100%) 2) $ opt -tbaa -aa-eval < xxx.bc > /dev/null (May-alias response 100%) 3) $ opt -cfl-aa -aa-eval < xxx.bc> /dev/null (Unknown command line argument '-cfl-aa') It seems that they are not

Hello I am trying to enable globalsmodref-aa by default. globalmodref-aa is a ModulePass and therefore can be invalidated and need to be rerun. I see globalsmodref-aa is enabled in LTO passmanager by adding the analysis pass explicitly. I wonder whether globalsmodref-aa can be enabled/run based on pass dependencies, i.e. those indicated in getAnalysisUsage(). Thanks, Xin -------------- next

Hi I see when LLVM builds the CallGraph SCCs. a function calling through a function pointer is conservatively assumed to call internal and external functions. Therefore, it has an edges pointing to the externalnode2, ie. the externalnode representing outgoing calls from this module. does LLVM have any function pointer analysis capabilities in the mainline ? Thanks, -Trent

I see that we do not inline a function marked as "always-inline" if it contains indirect branches ? what are the reasons behind this criterion ?

Does LLVM have loop multiversioning ? it seems it does not with clang++ -O3 -mllvm -debug-pass=Arguments program.c -c bash-4.1$ clang++ -O3 -mllvm -debug-pass=Arguments fast_algorithms.c -c clang-3.6: warning: treating 'c' input as 'c++' when in C++ mode, this behavior is deprecated Pass Arguments: -datalayout -notti -basictti -x86tti -targetlibinfo -no-aa -tbaa -scoped-noalias

Hi I have this program in which fooBuf can only take on NULL or the address of local_fooBuf, and fooBuf and local_fooBuf have scope of the foo function. Therefore there is no way for the fooPtr argument to alias with fooBuf. However, LLVM basicaa and globalsmodref-aa say the 2 pointers may alias. I am thinking whether i should implement a limited form of point-to alias on the fooBuf pointer in

Hi I do not really understand why frontend generated TBAA metadata is needed for the TBAA pass to work. It seems to me that we can always go up the IR chain and find the base type from which the pointer is derived from. Take the following example. I know %0 = load i32, i32* %a, align 4, !tbaa !1 and store i32 %i.02, i32* %b, align 4, !tbaa !6 do not alias as their metadata !1 = !{!2, !3, i64

i think attributes have taken control flow into account. I think readnone and nounwind functions are not safe to speculative execute because the function could run indefinitely, e.g. an infinite loop. -Xin On Tuesday, July 14, 2015, Philip Reames <listmail at philipreames.com> wrote: > On 07/14/2015 10:25 PM, Hal Finkel wrote: > >> ----- Original Message ----- >>

Dear all, I was wondering if there are some reliable alias analyses build on top of LLVM other than basicaa. Thank you! Zhiyuan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/attachments/20150407/db07dba3/attachment.html>

I understand that we need to push the address to a register then branch using the register. But i am asking why there is a trampoline there such that a call to foo is first branched to an snippet and the snippet branches to the X86CompilationCallback. is this snippet necessary ?

The address of the callee may be more than 2 GB away in memory, which cannot be encoded as an immediate offset in the call instruction. So, the value is first materialized with a mov instruction which can encode the immediate and then jumped to through a register.

I do not know too much about clang, is opencl publicly supported in clang ? how about cuda ? Thanks Xin

I have a question on the LLVM JIT I did some brief memory reading one day and I found that a call to a non-library function is resolved by the X86CompilationCallback, but the X86CompilationCallback is reached through a trampoline. why can not the generated code jump to the X86CompilationCallback function directly ? 0x2b0a6a4d103b: mov $0x2b0a6a561010,%rax 0x2b0a6a4d1045:

I don't think so, but you should check source code.

I have a function address held in an uint64_t. I would like to cast the function address to a function prototype and create a call to the function in LLVM. How could I do this ? Thanks Xin

If I turn on one of the llvm interprocedural optimizations without turning on the analysis it uses. will the analysis be turned on automatically ? Thanks Xin

I have a constant parameter in a LLVM function. Is there a way to reserve a CPU register such that it also holds the value of the parameter in LLVM x86 codegen ? Thanks Xin

I think it is still be hosted on some bzr servers. Thanks Xin On Thu, Jan 5, 2012 at 12:20 PM, Hal Finkel <hfinkel at anl.gov> wrote: > Is acovea still being distributed?
