Not very pretty and incomplete but the following patch allow sparse-llvm to compile this: struct mytype { int *foo; }; extern void init_mytype(struct mytype *mt); void init_mytype(struct mytype *mt) { mt->foo = (int *)mt; mt->foo = (void *)mt; mt->foo = (int *)0; mt->foo = (void *)0; mt->foo = (void *)(long)0; } It fail at " ... = (... *)1;" though. diff --git a/sparse-llvm.c b/sparse-llvm.c index 9f362b3ed..9e0450ae7 100644 --- a/sparse-llvm.c +++ b/sparse-llvm.c @@ -306,6 +306,7 @@ static void pseudo_name(pseudo_t pseudo, char *buf) static LLVMValueRef pseudo_to_value(struct function *fn, struct instruction *insn, pseudo_t pseudo) { LLVMValueRef result = NULL; + LLVMTypeRef type; switch (pseudo->type) { case PSEUDO_REG: @@ -360,7 +361,21 @@ static LLVMValueRef pseudo_to_value(struct function *fn, struct instruction *ins break; } case PSEUDO_VAL: - result = LLVMConstInt(insn_symbol_type(fn->module, insn), pseudo->value, 1); + type = insn_symbol_type(fn->module, insn); + switch (LLVMGetTypeKind(type)) { + case LLVMPointerTypeKind: + assert(!pseudo->value); + result = LLVMConstPointerNull(type); + break; + case LLVMIntegerTypeKind: + result = LLVMConstInt(type, pseudo->value, 1); + break; + default: + assert(0); + } break; case PSEUDO_ARG: { result = LLVMGetParam(fn->fn, pseudo->nr - 1); @@ -626,6 +641,7 @@ static void output_op_store(struct function *fn, struct instruction *insn) addr = calc_memop_addr(fn, insn); target_in = pseudo_to_value(fn, insn, insn->target); /* perform store */ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sparse" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
