The NYI diagnostic in getFunctionTypeForVTable showed up a few times in testing, so this patch is attempting to fix that up. The reproducer here is a function type for a vtable that has an incomplete type in it(return or parameter). Classic codegen chooses to represent this as an opaque type. This patch instead removes the special v-table handling here, so that we can instead just represent the types as incomplete record types. At the moment, this patch ends up lowering incomplete types as 'empty' types in LLVM-IR, which we may find we need to modify in the future, however at the moment, it seems to work. This patch ALSO changes the definition of RecordType::isSized to only be true for complete types, which prevents a number of other things from attempting to add attributes/check the size of the type/etc, but those are irrelevant for the purposes of vtable emission.
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
