[LLVMdev] misc questions on opt and bitcode

[Arpan Sen]

Hi Eric,

Here's the C code (example.c):
include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
  printf("testing\n");
}

Here's the LLVM IR (from llvm-gcc):
 ModuleID = 'example.c'
target datalayout =
"e-p:64:64:64-i1:8:8-i8:8:8-i16:16:16-i32:32:32-i64:64:64-f32:32:32-f64:64:64-v64:64:64-v128:128:128-a0:0:64-s0:64:64-f80:128:128-n8:16:32:64"
target triple = "x86_64-apple-darwin11.0"

@.str = private constant [8 x i8] c"testing\00", align 1 ; <[8 x i8]*>
[#uses=1]

define i32 @main() nounwind ssp {
entry:
  %retval = alloca i32                            ; <i32*> [#uses=1]
  %"alloca point" = bitcast i32 0 to i32          ; <i32> [#uses=0]
  %0 = call i32 @puts(i8* getelementptr inbounds ([8 x i8]* @.str, i64 0,
i64 0)) nounwind ; <i32> [#uses=0]
  br label %return

return:                                           ; preds = %entry
  %retval1 = load i32* %retval                    ; <i32> [#uses=1]
  ret i32 %retval1
}

declare i32 @puts(i8*)

And when I run llc with this IR I get nothing printed on screen. Not sure
if my LLVM revision is corrupted and needs a fresh install. When I ran with
the bitcode and lli here's what I get:
42-105-250-151:pastebin Babai$ llvm-gcc example.c -c -emit-llvm -o
example.bc
42-105-250-151:pastebin Babai$ lli example.bc
lli: example.bc: Invalid ALLOCA record

Pretty confusing.

Thanks,
  Arpan
