<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Ranjani,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As nobody else has answered you, I will give it a try, although I am not an expert in this area by any means.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When you say “.s files” what I think of are assembler source text files, i.e., machine instructions. There is no mechanism for supporting inlining in that case. But then you also said they are LLVM IR files, which by convention in the
LLVM project have a .ll extension. That’s a different story. I believe the correct tool for merging several IR files into one file would be llvm-link; once you have a single IR module, then everything would be available for your analysis.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There might be more clever ways to do this, but I’m not aware of a way to extract a single function from one file to merge into another file as a separate IR pass.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hope this helps,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">I am working on developing a method to do some analysis on Ada code. I have converted the high level code (multiple Ada files) to the corresponding LLVM IR (.s files) using the tool dragonegg. The structure
of my code is such that there are function calls across these files. Is there any way to inline these function calls? That is if function A in A.s calls function B in B.s, can the code for function B be added in A.s using some flag or pass in LLVM, like the
AlwaysInlinerLegacyPass?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
