[LLVMdev] new annotations in IR? (original) (raw)

How can they processed? I cant seem to find any solid information about how they exist in IR form from a Passes perspective. I see things like @llvm.var.annotation in dumps but no relevant sounding methods to get at these.

Thank you

AFAIK, there is no specific code to manipulate annotations. You could write an analysis pass to process & use them though, that shouldn't require a lot of work. -- Julien Lerouge PGP Key Id: 0xB1964A62 PGP Fingerprint: 392D 4BAD DB8B CE7F 4E5F FA3C 62DB 4AA7 B196 4A62 PGP Public Key from: keyserver.pgp.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
