    + +

    Trap values are similar to undef values, however + instead of representing an unspecified bit pattern, they represent the + fact that an instruction or constant expression which cannot evoke side + effects has nevertheless detected a condition which results in undefined + behavior.

    + +

    There is currently no way of representing a trap value in the IR; they + only exist when produced by operations such as + add with the nsw flag.

    + +

    Trap value behavior is defined in terms of value dependence:

    + +
      +
    • Values other than phi nodes depend on + their operands.
    • + +
    • Phi nodes depend on the operand corresponding + to their dynamic predecessor basic block.
    • + +
    • Function arguments depend on the corresponding actual argument values in + the dynamic callers of their functions.
    • + +
    • Call instructions depend on the + ret instructions that dynamically transfer + control back to them.
    • + +
    • Invoke instructions depend on the + ret, unwind, + or exception-throwing call instructions that dynamically transfer control + back to them.
    • + +
    • Non-volatile loads and stores depend on the most recent stores to all of the + referenced memory addresses, following the order in the IR + (including loads and stores implied by intrinsics such as + @llvm.memcpy.)
    • + + + + + +
    • An instruction with externally visible side effects depends on the most + recent preceding instruction with externally visible side effects, following + the order in the IR. (This includes + volatile operations.)
    • + +
    • An instruction control-depends on a + terminator instruction + if the terminator instruction has multiple successors and the instruction + is always executed when control transfers to one of the successors, and + may not be executed when control is transfered to another.
    • + +
    • Dependence is transitive.
    • + +
    + +

    Whenever a trap value is generated, all values which depend on it evaluate + to trap. If they have side effects, the evoke their side effects as if each + operand with a trap value were undef. If they have externally-visible side + effects, the behavior is undefined.

    + +
