[CaptureTracking][AA] Only consider provenance captures (#130777) For the purposes of alias analysis, we should only consider provenance captures, not address captures. To support this, change (or add) CaptureTracking APIs to accept a Mask and StopFn argument. The Mask determines which components we are interested in (for AA that would be Provenance). The StopFn determines when we can abort the walk early. Currently, we want to do this as soon as any of the components in the Mask is captured. The purpose of making this a separate predicate is that in the future we will also want to distinguish between capturing full provenance and read-only provenance. In that case, we can only stop early once full provenance is captured. The earliest escape analysis does not get a StopFn, because it must always inspect all captures.
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.
