1 //===- FindUnsafePointerTypes.cpp - Check pointer usage safety --------------=//
2 //
3 // This file defines a pass that can be used to determine, interprocedurally, 
4 // which pointer types are accessed unsafely in a program.  If there is an
5 // "unsafe" access to a specific pointer type, transformations that depend on
6 // type safety cannot be permitted.
7 //
8 // The result of running this analysis over a program is a set of unsafe pointer
9 // types that cannot be transformed.  Safe pointer types are not tracked.
10 //
11 // Additionally, this analysis exports a hidden command line argument that (when
12 // enabled) prints out the reasons a type was determined to be unsafe.
13 //
14 // Currently, the only allowed operations on pointer types are:
15 //   alloca, malloc, free, getelementptr, load, and store
16 //
