[flang][NFC] use hlfir.declare first result when both results are raw pointers (#132261) Currently, the helpers to get fir::ExtendedValue out of hlfir::Entity use hlfir.declare second result (`#1`) in most cases. This is because this result is the same as the input and matches what FIR was getting before lowering to HLFIR. But this creates odd situations when both hlfir.declare are raw pointers and either result ends-up being used in the IR depending on whether the code was generated by a helper using fir::ExtendedValue, or via "pure HLFIR" helpers using the first result. This will typically prevent simple CSE and easy identification that two operation (e.g load/store) are touching the exact same memory location without using alias analysis or "manual detection" (looking for common hlfir.declare defining op). Hence, when hlfir.declare results are both raw pointers, use `#0` when producing `fir::ExtendedValue`. When `#0` is a fir.box, keep using `#1` because these are not the same. The only code change is in HLFIRTools.cpp and is pretty small, but there is a big test fallout of `#1` to `#0`.
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.
