Bug ID: 36328
Summary: [DebugInfo] pointless pointer_type
Product: clang
Version: unspecified
Hardware: PC
OS: Windows NT
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P
Component: LLVM Codegen
Assignee: unassignedclangb...@nondot.org
Reporter: paul_robin...@playstation.sony.com
CC: llvm-bugs@lists.llvm.org
It looks like Clang will add 'void *' to the retainedTypes even if
there are no references to it elsewhere in the metadata.
######################
$ cat t.c
void k(void *);
void g() {
int count = 2;
k((void *)&count);
}
$ clang -c -g t.c -S -emit-llvm
######################
In the IR, I see:
!0 = distinct !DICompileUnit(..., retainedTypes: !3)
!3 = !{!4}
!4 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_pointer_type, baseType: null, size: 64)
But there are no other uses of !4.
If I change 'void *' to 'int *' the pointer_type goes away.
Note that k() is not described in the metadata, regardless.
