[llvm-dev] Segmentation fault in opt with -x86-codegen

[Eli Friedman via llvm-dev]

That isn’t supposed to work; “x86-codegen” refers to the "X86 FP Stackifier" pass, which only makes sense on MIR, not LLVM IR.  We could print a better error message, though: maybe we could add a report_fatal_error to the MachineModuleInfo constructor.

Hi All,

We are observing a segmentation fault in opt with -x86-codegen switch. This happens with any general llvm-IR. Please find attached a simple testcase. It can be reproduced with the following.

opt -S -o a.out.ll a.ll -x86-codegen

The traces of the error is as follows.

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

With a preliminary analysis, it can be seen that MachineModuleInfo pass which is a "Required" dependency of MachineFunction pass invoked by -x86-codegen.Here, the MachineModuleInfo is created through the call to  llvm::callDefaultCtor<llvm::MachineModuleInfo>(). However, the default constructor of MachineModuleInfo expects a valid pointer to  LLVMTargetMachine, which happens to be nullptr in this case and triggers seg fault when accessed.

It would be great if someone could have a look at it and provide or suggest the proper fix.
