A question about statically linking a pass to clang instead of dynamically loading it at runtime. I am stumped on this bug for a while. I inserted a pass under lib/Transforms/mypass directory, registered it with INITIALIZEPASS and defined createMyPass in the pass. Also I added file mypass.h in include/llvm/Transforms/ to expose the accessor functions that expose my passes. Entries are added in include/llvm/LinkAllPasses.h to force pass linking. The archive files of my passes are added to LINKCOMPONENTS in the Makefiles for opt and clang. However, the passes are still not statically linked. Is there a way to statically link a pass into clang? If possible, how do turn on and off my passes with command line options?

I don't think include/llvm/LinkAllPasses.h would affect clang. Did you see lib/Transforms/IPO/PassManagerBuilder.cpp ?
