================
Comment at: llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/Inliner.cpp:835
       // Check whether we want to inline this callsite.
-      if (!Advice->isInliningRecommended()) {
+      if (!Advice || !Advice->isInliningRecommended()) {
         Advice->recordUnattemptedInlining();

The SampleProfile inliner needs additional information beyond `CallBase` to make its decision. Namely, `InlineCandidate` which contains sampling information. Does it make sense to extend `getAdvice` to take additional information?
