[llvm-dev] llc -O3 generates basic blocks that end without jump

Hello.
I noticed that when I pass the -O3 flag to llc some of the resulting ASM basic blocks
(as seen by the AsmPrinter phase and the resulting .s file) don't contain any jump, be it
conditional or unconditional. For example I get this ASM .s file after running llc -O3:
// BB#0: // %entry
mov r0, 0
ld_64 r1, ...
mov r2, 256
// Notice there is no jump
LBB0_1: // %for.cond2.preheader
mov r3, 0
...
These are not really 2 basic blocks, so the first block without jump should be merged
with the successor block (if just one successor, which is always the case as far as I can
see on the tests I ran).
Did anybody already address such correction of "malformed" basic blocks obtained with
llc -O3 (or -O1/O2)? Or is there any other flag that I am missing when invoking llc?
Thank you,
Alex
