FIXME: this is really just shoring-up a deficiency in alias analysis. BasicAA isn't willing to spend linear time determining whether an alloca was captured before or after this particular call, while we are. However, with a smarter AA in place, this test is just wasting compile time.

◆ doesNotAccessMemory() [1/2]

bool llvm::AAResults::doesNotAccessMemory ( const CallBase Call)
inline

Checks if the specified call is known to never read or write memory.

Note that if the call only reads from known-constant memory, it is also legal to return true. Also, calls that unwind the stack are legal for this predicate.

Many optimizations (such as CSE and LICM) can be performed on such calls without worrying about aliasing properties, and many calls have this property (e.g. calls to 'sin' and 'cos').

This property corresponds to the GCC 'const' attribute.

Returns a bitmask that should be unconditionally applied to the ModRef info of a memory location.

This allows us to eliminate Mod and/or Ref from the ModRef info based on the knowledge that the memory location points to constant and/or locally-invariant memory.

If IgnoreLocals is true, then this method returns NoModRef for memory that points to a local alloca.
