Hi Sanjay,

I do not think this change is correct.
I have attached a test case with (before.ll) and without (after.ll) that change and the related C file (test.c).
To reproduce, compile with O1 or more and run the produced executable. The correct behavior is do not assert :).

Please revert or fix it.

Yes, this matches the C definitions, but the rules of propagating the undef value are not strictly the same in C and LLVM IR AFAICT.
Here is an example:
In (pseudo) C,
a = undef    // a is undef;
if (something)
  b = val;
else
  b = a;  // b is undef, but it should be the same value as a.
assert (something || b == a);

The related (pseudo) IR would be:
a = undef
b = select i1 something, val, a
cmpVal = cmp eq b, a
assertVal = or something, cmpVal
call assert(assertVal)

Now, the actual IR will be, because of constant propagation:
b = select i1 something, val, undef  // <— we lose the information that the next two undef are the same value.
cmpVal = cmp eq b, undef
assertVal = or something, cmpVal
call assert(assertVal)

This is still fine as long as undef are expanded into the same constant.
However, the LangRef states that the following transformation is valid:
  %C = select %X, %Y, undef
Safe:
  %C = %Y
Unsafe:
  %C = undef
Therefore, we end up with the following IR:
b = val  // <— now, the value of b may not be a when ‘something' is false, which is incorrect. 
cmpVal = cmp eq b, undef
assertVal = or something, cmpVal
call assert(assertVal)

Thanks,
