Use MachineInstr::memoperands() function to get memory operands then you can get the address space by using MachineMemOperand::getAddrSpace().

Thanks for the response. How can I find out if an instruction uses a private memory access?

Hi Erdem,

I would write a MachineFunction pass. You can check each load instruction to see if it is a private memory access and insert what you want by using BuildMI(...) function.

I would like to convert a C file that uses OpenMP library to X86 code with a condition: I want to insert a NOP before each instruction that does a private memory access.I have written an optimization pass that inserts an inline assembly call (NOP) but it is applied at IR level, and I cannot determine where to insert it. How can I use LLVM to add NOPs accordingly?
Thanks.
