This class stores info we want to provide to or retain within an alias query.

By default, the root query is stateless and starts with a freshly constructed info object. Specific alias analyses can use this query info to store per-query state that is important for recursive or nested queries to avoid recomputing. To enable preserving this state across multiple queries where safe (due to the IR not changing), use a BatchAAResults wrapper. The information stored in an AAQueryInfo is currently limitted to the caches used by BasicAA, but can further be extended to fit other AA needs.

AliasCacheT llvm::AAQueryInfo::AliasCache

AssumptionBasedResults

Location pairs for which an assumption based result is currently stored.

Used to remove all potentially incorrect results from the cache if an assumption is disproven.

MayBeCrossIteration

bool llvm::AAQueryInfo::MayBeCrossIteration = false

Tracks whether the accesses may be on different cycle iterations.

When interpret "Value" pointer equality as value equality we need to make sure that the "Value" is not part of a cycle. Otherwise, two uses could come from different "iterations" of a cycle and see different values for the same "Value" pointer.

The following example shows the problem: p = phi(alloca1, addr2) l = load ptr addr1 = gep, alloca2, 0, l addr2 = gep alloca2, 0, (l + 1) alias(p, addr1) -> MayAlias ! store l, ...
