This looks like the same issue as one I ran into when trying to add LTO
support to the static analyzer [1].
AIUI the LTO infrastructure partitions the functions in a kind of
sharding operation. There's no guarantee for any given partition's
invocation of lto1 that it has a particular function body.
I fixed this in the analyzer by putting this loop at the top of the
pass:
/* If using LTO, ensure that the cgraph nodes have function bodies. */
cgraph_node *node;
FOR_EACH_FUNCTION_WITH_GIMPLE_BODY (node)
node->get_untransformed_body ();
which seems to fix it for me (my pass then goes on to do a non-trivial
interprocedural traversal, so it needs to have all the function bodies
present first).
I'm not sure if this is the correct fix for your issue, but it worked
for my pass (I'm just using "-flto", FWIW).
Hope this is helpful
