            Bug ID: 48472
           Summary: LowerConstantIntrinsics pass thinks address of global
                    is constant
           Product: libraries
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows NT
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: Scalar Optimizations
          Assignee: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
          Reporter: john.brawn at arm.com
                CC: llvm-bugs at lists.llvm.org

If llc is given the following input:

  @x = global i8 0, align 1

  define i32 @example() {
  entry:
    %0 = call i1 @llvm.is.constant.i32(i32 ptrtoint (i8* @x to i32))
    %1 = zext i1 %0 to i32
    ret i32 %1
  }

  declare i1 @llvm.is.constant.i32(i32)

then LowerConstantIntrinsics will optimise this to "ret i32 1". It shouldn't be
doing this as the argument is an address of a global and LangRef says:

  In particular, note that if the argument is a constant expression which
refers to a global (the address of which _is_ a constant, but not manifest
during the compile), then the intrinsic evaluates to false.
