[DirectX] Fix the writing of ConstantExpr GEPs to DXIL bitcode (#154446) Fixes #153304 Changes: - When writing `ConstantExpr` GEPs to DXIL bitcode, the bitcode writer will use the old Constant Code `CST_CODE_CE_GEP_OLD = 12` instead of the newer `CST_CODE_CE_GEP = 32` which is interpreted as an undef in DXIL. Additional context: [CST_CODE_CE_GEP = 12 in DXC](https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXShaderCompiler/blob/0c9e75e7e91bb18fab101abc81d399a0296f499e/include/llvm/Bitcode/LLVMBitCodes.h#L187) while the same constant code is labeled [CST_CODE_CE_GEP_OLD in LLVM](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/65de318d186c815f43b892aa20b98c50f22ab6fe/llvm/include/llvm/Bitcode/LLVMBitCodes.h#L411) - Modifies the `PointerTypeAnalysis` to be able to analyze pointer-typed constants that appear in the operands of instructions so that the correct type of the `ConstantExpr` GEP is determined and written into the DXIL bitcode. - Adds a `PointerTypeAnalysis` test and dxil-dis test to ensure that the pointer type of `ConstantExpr` GEPs are resolved and `ConstantExpr` GEPs are written to DXIL bitcode correctly In addition, this PR also adds a missing call to `GV.removeDeadConstantUsers()` in the DXILFinalizeLinkage pass, and removes an unnecessary manual removal of a ConstantExpr in the DXILFlattenArrays pass.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
