Sorry, this does not fix bug http://llvm.org/PR38390 for me. I still get:

compared to when using r334629 (74928bc090c2626a3d4c3749a0d025922a25b13b), the commit before ("LTO: Keep file handles open for memory mapped files")

Exiting.

However, the early discard seems an obvious error. Do you happen to have a test case that shows that the code is used at all?

Is the error you suspect that ~DiscardTemp of Discard is called here, before any work is done?

For http://llvm.org/PR38390, the file accessed is called bugpoint-input-b43aded.bc (BugDriver::runPasses creates file name with this pattern). The file deleted here would be called bugpoint-test-program-....bc.

This is a separate bug from the one you reported.

I have an idea on how to fix that one too, but since I don't have windows, I can't attempt a fix and test it. However, I'll add a comment to PR38390 shortly.

Yes, if -save-temps is not passed, the file is deleted when Discard goes out of scope.

[serious] Here is another call to executeProgram. BitcodeFile can be empty as well (e.g. BugDriver.cpp:218) which will fail if only executeProgramSafely handles creating the bitcode file.

Yes, you're correct. Looks like just rolling back r318459 with a note that you can't use TempFile in this case. Does that sound like the correct fix?

Have you considered wrapping executeProgram inside a function that creates (and discards) the bitfile (instead of hoisting that code into executeProgramSafely)?

I could do that, but we should revert r318459 first -- that change introduced a bug.

What purpose does the revert serve? We know how to fix the problem immediately, as shown here.

If you want to revert r318459 to fix the bug, why did you even upload this differential?

r318459 introduced a bug 10 months ago by an author who no longer works on the project.

If it had been noticed earlier, I'd still consult with the author before reverting. In this case, I initially wanted to just fix it, but as you pointed out, there were multiple code paths that would have needed the same fix. So, in retrospect, reverting the commit the caused the problem seems like a more reasonable course.

If I was wrong to submit a diff for this, I'll just revert the change.

Can you add a test case? Since I never contributed any code to bugpoint, I am not comfortable with just accepting it (usually one asks the original author, who, as you mentioned, is not active anymore). But it would obvious if there was a test case that illustrates the problem/ensure the bug does not reappear.

I talked with @hfinkel about what to do in such cases. He's ok with just reverting. So go ahead and commit the revert.

This revision is now accepted and ready to land.Sep 14 2018, 11:11 PM

Okay, sounds good. I'll revert later today.

Btw, you make a good point about the lack of tests. I plan to look into that as well, but will make that a separate patch.
