When salvaging a dbg.declare/dbg.addr we should not add
DW_OP_stack_value to the DIExpression
(see test/Transforms/InstCombine/salvage-dbg-declare.ll).
Consider this example
%vla = alloca i32, i64 2 call void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata i32* %vla, metadata !1, metadata !DIExpression())
Instcombine will turn it into
%vla1 = alloca [2 x i32] %vla1.sub = getelementptr inbounds [2 x i32], [2 x i32]* %vla, i64 0, i64 0 call void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata [2 x i32]* %vla1.sub, metadata !19, metadata !DIExpression())
If the GEP can be eliminated, then the dbg.declare will be salvaged
and we should get
%vla1 = alloca [2 x i32] call void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata [2 x i32]* %vla1, metadata !19, metadata !DIExpression())
The problem was that salvageDebugInfo did not recognize dbg.declare
as being indirect (%vla1 points to the value, it does not hold the
value), so we incorrectly got
call void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata [2 x i32]* %vla1, metadata !19, metadata !DIExpression(DW_OP_stack_value))
I also made sure that llvm::salvageDebugInfo and
DIExpression::prependOpcodes do not add DW_OP_stack_value to
the DIExpression in case no new operands are added to the
DIExpression. That way we avoid to, unneccessarily, turn a
register location expression into an implicit location expression
in some situations (see test11 in test/Transforms/LICM/sinking.ll).
