[LLVMdev] Problem with IR code instruction

Hi...

I'm having some trouble with an IR instruction. I'm triying to modify it.

I was trying to create a BinaryOperator "op" with some operands from Instruction "inst":

op = BinaryOperator::Create(Instruction::Add,cast<Value>(inst->getOperand(0)),cast<Value>(r),inst->getNameStr(),inst);

But when executed, my pass throw a segfault and a stacktrace:

Stack dump:

make: *** [src/ciphers/aes/aes_enc.o] Segmentation fault

I looked my code and figured out that inst->getOperand(0) was equal to NULL, so I guess the segfault come from that. errs() << *inst; throw a segfault too :(

So I looked in the ll file and figured it out that the instruction creating the problem was this instruction: %30 = sub nsw i32 %29, 2  (so, getOperand(0) should return %30 and not NULL)

I don't understand why this instruction won't work both with my code and errs()... According to the docs (http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#i_sub) this instruction is perfectly normal...

Thx, ++ (and sorry for my bad english :( )
