Summary: This patch will introduce copying of DBG_VALUE instructions from an otherwise empty basic block to predecessor/successor blocks in case the empty block is eliminated/bypassed. It is currently only done in one identified situation in the BranchFolding pass, before optimizing on empty block. It can be seen as a light variant of the propagation done by the LiveDebugValues pass, which unfortunately is executed after the BranchFolding pass. We only propagate (copy) DBG_VALUE instructions in a limited number of situations: a) If the empty BB is the only predecessor of a successor we can copy the DBG_VALUE instruction to the beginning of the successor (because the DBG_VALUE instruction is always part of the flow between the blocks). b) If the empty BB is the only successor of a predecessor we can copy the DBG_VALUE instruction to the end of the predecessor (because the DBG_VALUE instruction is always part of the flow between the blocks). In this case we add the DBG_VALUE just before the first terminator (assuming that the terminators do not impact the DBG_VALUE). A future solution, to handle more situations, could perhaps be to run the LiveDebugValues pass before branch folding? This fix is related to PR37234. It is expected to resolve the problem seen, when applied together with the fix in SelectionDAG from here: https://reviews.llvm.org/D46129 Reviewers: #debug-info, aprantl, rnk Reviewed By: #debug-info, aprantl Subscribers: ormris, gbedwell, llvm-commits Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D46184 llvm-svn: 331183 |
