[LLVMdev] variable size alloca

[Ryan M. Lefever]

To what do variable size LLVM alloca instructions get translated, when 
they are turned into machine code?  I compiled a piece of code to 
bitcode and disassembled it.  The disassembled code showed that there 
were alloca instructions with variable-sized parameters within the 
bitcode.  When I turned the bitcode into machine code, I performed an nm 
on the result but didn't see any symbols referring to alloca.  So, I'm 
guessing that they don't get translated to an alloca system call.  If 
that's the case, to what do they get translated?
