[SelectionDAGBuilder] AAInfo and lowering a target memory intrinsic

Project Infrastructure LLVM Dev List Archives

Hi,

I noticed while lowering a call of a target memory intrinsic to an INTRINSIC node, we ignore the AAInfo (metadata).

Please refer to the function SelectionDAGBuilder::visitTargetIntrinsic(). While constructing the DAG Node, the IntrinsicInfo object does not hold any alias information metadata and so we ignore the information. Is there any specific reason why we do this ?

I have a SelectionDAG in software pipeliner and I am looking to use this AAInfo to determine loop carried dependences.

Any pointers will be highly appreciated ?
