[llvm-dev] How to count instructions in a function?

[John Criswell via llvm-dev]

Dear Zubin,

If I were you, I would write a ModulePass that uses the CallGraph 
analysis to get a call graph.  I would then iterate over the nodes in 
the call graph and propagate information from callees to callers.

Regards,

John Criswell
