[LLVMdev] LLVM GlobalStatus possible bug (patch provided)

[Christophe Duvernois]

Hi everyone,

I writed my own pass (which play with global variables). I can call my pass
with "clang++ -mllvm -mypass" and everything is working.
However if I use my pass with optimizations passes like -O2 or -O3, clang
crashs :

After further investigation i fixed the problem (cf patch attached).
In the lib/Transforms/Utils/GlobalStatus.cpp :
const Function *F = I->getParent()->getParent();
There is no check if the first parent is null...

I don't know if this is me doing something wrong and I->getParent() should
never be null or if this is a bug?
I'm working with clang/llvm 3.4 but same problem in 3.5 and trunk ...

Regards,
Christophe
