When MemCpyOpt performs call slot optimization it will concatenate the alias.scope metadata between the function call and the memcpy. However, scoped AA relies on the domains in metadata to be maintained in a caller-callee relationship. Naive concatenation breaks this assumption leading to bad AA results.
The fix is to take the intersection of domains then union the scopes within those domains.
The original bug came from a case of rust bad codegen which uses this bad aliasing to perform additional memcpy optimizations. As show in the added test case %src got forwarded past its lifetime leading to a dereference of garbage data.
Testing
ninja check-llvm
Two remarks:http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/algorithm/includes/ )
You probably want to do:
or take a real intersection of the domains, and then the union of the scopes belonging to the intersection of the domains.
