Subject: [PATCH 2/2] llvm: default init of arrays & structs
Date: Thu, 28 Dec 2017 23:30:26 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171228223026.39089-3-luc.vanoostenryck@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171228223026.39089-1-luc.vanoostenryck@gmail.com>

Linearization of arrays & structs default initialization is done
as if these objects would be an integer as large as the object.
This integer is then simply zero-initialized.
(This may be objectionable and will be done differently).

However, sparse-llvm is not ready to handle this situation where
a non-scalar is initialized with a scalar value.

Workaround this by using LLVMConstNull() when possible.
