[LLVMdev] How to avoid loopverify failures after replacing the backedge with an edge(latchBB to exitBB) in a looppass?

[zhiyuan yang]

Hi,

I am writing a loop pass to replace the backedge with an edge from latch to
exit.
Now I just replace the terminator of latch with another BranchInst, and the
loop will not be a loop after my pass. However, it turns out a failure of
loopverify after executing my pass:

opt: ~/llvm/llvm-trunk/include/llvm/Analysis/LoopInfoImpl.h:297: void
llvm::LoopBase<N, M>::verifyLoop() const [with BlockT = llvm::BasicBlock,
LoopT = llvm::Loop]: Assertion `HasInsideLoopPreds && "Loop block has no
in-loop predecessors!"' failed.

Does this mean I should keep it still a loop after my pass? If so, how
could I bypass it?
