Hi,

the problem in PR 57084 is that late PRE devirtualization creates a
direct call to a decl fro which we only have an inlined call graph
mode in the given partition.  I tried to find a most universal place
where to fix it because this problem is not special to type-based
devirtualization and in theory can be caused by any call to a decl
that is grabbed from a constructor.  I think the best place is the
following one-liner, because all such decls should go through
canonicalize_constructor_val.

Bootstrapped and tested on x86_64-linux, fixes the testcase (at -m32)
and I have happened to also LTO build Mozilla Firefox with it.  OK for
trunk?

Thanks,

Martin

Is this change needed for 4.8, too? It would be OK there.

For 4.9 I would preffer replacing cgraph_get_create by
cgraph_get_create_real_symbol_node.  I believe that all users of
cgraph_get_create are not interested in inline nodes. I just did not want to
make such intrusive change for 4.8...

Although the testcase shows the problem relies on code that is new in
4.9, I think that yes, even the current devirtualization by looking
into constructors can hit the bug.  So I am going to commit it to 4.8
after testing on that branch.

I've looked at all calls to cgraph_get_create_node and pretty much all
of them either really want cgraph_get_create_real_symbol_node or at
least will not be harmed by doing that.  The only two calls I was not
so sure about were the one in lto-cgraph.c and in particular the one
in lto-streamer-in.c.  I'm afraid they might create an extra cgraph
node in LTRANS when we would actually want the inlined one.  What do
you think?

I'll give it a go anyway.  Thanks,

Martin

Except that there is no such thing as
cgraph_get_create_real_symbol_node in 4.8.  I suppose it's not worth
backporting it without a bug triggering there.  However, this makes me
think whether we should not commit the original one-line patch to
trunk first, even though we will zap
cgraph_get_create_real_symbol_node later, so that the patch can be
found and backported more easily if the need to backport it ever
arises...

Yep, it was same situation with the PR fix I introduced cgraph_get_create_real_symbol_node for.
In theory the bug exists for 4.8, too, but I do not have testcase.

Lets go with bugfixes first and then I can do the renaming.
