Hi,
how do I insert a call to an external function in a FunctionPass?
My problem is with creation of the declaration for the external function.
According to http://llvm.org/docs/WritingAnLLVMPass.html#the-functionpass-class,
a FunctionPass is not supposed to add or remove functions. I assume
it's also true for function declarations.
A declaration inserted in doInitialization is cleaned up in
GlobalOptLegacyPass::runOnModule, which happens to run before my pass'
runOnFunction().
Do I need a ModulePass for this?
