Subject: [cfe-dev] JIT crashing when compiling source code with Clang and -mretpoline flag

Heyho both Mailinglists,

I'm not sure if I encountered a bug or if I'm doing something wrong. I compiled a "Hello World"-function with Clang to LLVM-IR code, while passing the "-mretpoline" flag.

I tried jitting and calling that function with the KaleidoscopeJIT code, but when calling "lookup" for that function the application crashed.
I also tried that file in an old MCJIT implementation I had - there the application crashed when calling the function (but it does find the address for the function first).

If I recompile my code without the "-mretpoline" flag, everything works fine again.
I compiled Clang and the LLVM files from the LLVM8 source files, I run them under Windows7 64bit. Any ideas what might went wrong?

Kind greetings
Björn
