[llvm-commits] [PATCH] A fix for the inliner heuristics for recessive calls

[Nadav Rotem]

Hi, 

I am looking at a test case that looks like this:

void foo() {
  ... foo();   // I'm recursive!

   bar();
}

bar() {  int a[1000];  // large stack size }

If we decide to inline bar() into foo()  we may increase the stack size to the point of overflow.   I attached a patch to prevent inlining of callees which allocate large arrays into a recursive caller. 

Thanks,
Nadav
