$ cat /tmp/a.c
void *fallback(unsigned char *data);
void *stuff(unsigned char *data);

void *foo(unsigned char *data)
{
  if (*data & 0x1) {
    return fallback(data);
  }
  data++;
  return stuff(data);
}

$ clang -target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu -Os -S -o - /tmp/a.c
        .text
        .file   "a.c"
        .globl  foo                             # -- Begin function foo
        .type   foo,@function
foo:                                    # @foo
        .cfi_startproc
# %bb.0:                                # %entry
        testb   $1, (%rdi)
        jne     .LBB0_1
# %bb.2:                                # %if.end
        incq    %rdi
        jmp     stuff                           # TAILCALL
.LBB0_1:                                # %if.then
        jmp     fallback                        # TAILCALL
.Lfunc_end0:
        .size   foo, .Lfunc_end0-foo
        .cfi_endproc



Instead of:

        jne     .LBB0_1
.LBB0_1:
        jmp     fallback

It could just do:

        jne     .LBB0_1


The code in BranchFolding.cpp is supposed to do this:

But it's not firing here.</pre>
