Hi

Good day. For the following function local static constant array:

static const attribute((used)) attribute((section("data"))) void *codetable[] = { &&RETURN, &&INCREMENT, &&DECREMENT, &&DOUBLE, &&SWAPWORD}; I have the following in the LLVM IR.

@sampleCode.codetable = internal global [5 x i8*] [i8* blockaddress(@sampleCode, %19), i8* blockaddress(@sampleCode, %22), i8* blockaddress(@sampleCode, %25), i8* blockaddress(@sampleCode, %28), i8* blockaddress(@sampleCode, %31)], section "data", align 16 Here the array elements are labels in c code. I have done following to create the same array from LLVM pass. std::vector<BlockAddress *> tmp;

Function *fn = ... BasicBlock *bb = ...

BlockAddress *bba = BlockAddress::get(fn, bb); tmp.push_back(bba);

GlobalVariable *gvar_ptr_abc = new GlobalVariable( /Module=/*fn->getParent(), /Type=/PointerTy, /isConstant=/false, /Linkage=/GlobalValue::InternalLinkage, /Initializer=/0, // has initializer, specified below /Name=/"labelTracker"); gvar_ptr_abc->setAlignment(16); Constant *blockItems = ConstantDataArray::get(fn->getContext(), tmp); gvar_ptr_abc->setInitializer(blockItems); I get error with following: Unsupported type in Type::getScalarTy

Can anyone suggest what I suppose to do? It is definitely related to my type declaration and BlockAddress items, but I don't know what it is exactly. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
