[PATCH] D89978: Fix SROA with a PHI mergig values from a same block

[Roman Lebedev via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

lebedev.ri added inline comments.


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/Transforms/Scalar/SROA.cpp:3544-3557
     SmallVector<Value *, 4> Index(GEPI.idx_begin(), GEPI.idx_end());
     bool IsInBounds = GEPI.isInBounds();
     IRBuilderTy PHIBuilder(GEPI.getParent()->getFirstNonPHI());
     PHINode *NewPN = PHIBuilder.CreatePHI(GEPI.getType(),
                                           PHI->getNumIncomingValues(),
                                           PHI->getName() + ".sroa.phi");
     for (unsigned I = 0, E = PHI->getNumIncomingValues(); I != E; ++I) {

I'm not sure why it would matter to SROA, that sounds like an unrelated bug that should be fixed..
I think it would be more future-proof fix.
