Hi,

I am trying to locate the passes run by clang/opt when it is passed the option -O3. Can someone point me where to look at? Eventually, I want to turn off just the LoopStrengthReduction pass in the -O3 set of default passes. Thanks, Are you looking for code or just a textual dump? In the former case, look at the functions in lib/Transforms/IPO/PassManagerBuilder.cpp (in llvm) [or lib/Passes if you're using the new pass manager infrastructure]. The pipelines should be almost identical, FWIW. If you want that from clang, you can either add -mllvm -debug-pass=Arguments to get the passes passed to opt, or -mllvm -opt-bisect-limit=-1 which will show all the passes (and the order on which they're run on each function in your Module).

Hope this answers your question (if it doesn't, feel free to ask again :)
