Beyond that we get to the zero location - but in what scope?

The scope of where it's hoisted into; in this case, the scope of the branch instruction.  Which could be a parent of the common parent of the hoisted instruction, but so what.  The scope of a line-0 location is not especially relevant, and using the scope of where the instruction lands seems least disruptive.

Adrian - what were we doing about cases where merged locations were on call instructions? I think this case is one of those, where if the instruction is a call, this may drop the location from the call, then inline through the call creating corrupted debug info.

I guess that in this case the only sane thing we can do is create a new artificial line 0 location in one of the two calls' scope. It's not pretty, but that;s the best I can come up with.

A few options:

Further up in the same file, the code avoids merging if the instruction is a call (originally r380995) SimplifyCFG.cpp:1282.

So that's one option - do nothing on calls. But it's probably not ideal/wrong (since it's not either location)

Beyond that we get to the zero location - but in what scope?
The root scope of the function? (what if these two calls are both within a single inlined call? That'll punch a hole in the range which isn't entirely accurate) The nearest common parent scope to the two instructions (assuming they both have debug locations? If one doesn't have a location, could we reliably use the other location? Probably not - so if one doesn't have a location we should use the zero location at the root of the current function for sure)
Worth finding the common parent scope?
Should this functionality be built into getMergedLocation?

Here's a test case that seems to exercise/assert on that (but it asserts relatively late - would be handy to have a way to run the verifier between each optimization - maybe there is such an option?):
struct string {
  ~string();
};
void f2();
void f1(int) { f2(); }
void run(int c) {
  string body;
  while (true) {
    if (c)
      f1(c);
    else
      f1(c);
  }
}

New Revision: 310985

URL: http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?rev=310985&view=rev
Log:
Merge debug info when hoist then-else code to if.

Summary: When we move then-else code to if, we need to merge its debug info, otherwise the hoisted instruction may have inaccurate debug info attached.
