Subject: Add MDBuilder utilities for path-aware TBAA.
X-Git-Url: http://plrg.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=082bb7cf57e3a7089b8302a7d676fddf0bce276e;p=oota-llvm.git

Add MDBuilder utilities for path-aware TBAA.

Add utilities to create struct nodes in TBAA type DAG and to create path-aware
tags. The format of struct nodes in TBAA type DAG: a unique name, a list of
fields with field offsets and field types. The format of path-aware tags:
a base type in TBAA type DAG, an access type and an offset relative to the base
type.
