<div>I'd prefer that these functions are actually marked as 'unreachable' in source code, instead of depending on the compiler implicitly assuming that in order to get such an optimization.</div></div></div></blockquote>
<div><br></div><div>I agree, but if they're not marked 'unreachable' in the source code, what IR would you want to produce for code paths which fall off the end? @llvm.trap() at -O0 and unreachable otherwise seems reasonable to me; would you prefer something else?
