rustc_llvm: unwrap LLVMMetadataRef before casting Directly casting the opaque pointer was [reported] to cause an "incomplete type" error with GCC 9.3: ``` llvm-wrapper/RustWrapper.cpp:939:31: required from here /usr/include/c++/9.3/type_traits:1301:12: error: invalid use of incomplete type 'struct LLVMOpaqueMetadata' 1301 | struct is_base_of | ^~~~~~~~~~ In file included from [...]/rust/src/llvm-project/llvm/include/llvm-c/BitReader.h:23, from llvm-wrapper/LLVMWrapper.h:1, from llvm-wrapper/RustWrapper.cpp:1: [...]/rust/src/llvm-project/llvm/include/llvm-c/Types.h:89:16: note: forward declaration of 'struct LLVMOpaqueMetadata' 89 | typedef struct LLVMOpaqueMetadata *LLVMMetadataRef; | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ``` [reported]: https://zulip-archive.rust-lang.org/182449tcompilerhelp/12215halprustcllvmbuildfail.html#214915124 A simple `unwrap` fixes the issue. r? `@eddyb`
This directory currently contains some LLVM support code. This will generally be sent upstream to LLVM in time; for now it lives here. NOTE: the LLVM C++ ABI is subject to between-version breakage and must *never* be exposed to Rust. To allow for easy auditing of that, all Rust-exposed types must be typedef-ed as "LLVMXyz", or "LLVMRustXyz" if they were defined here. Functions that return a failure status and leave the error in the LLVM last error should return an LLVMRustResult rather than an int or anything to avoid confusion. When translating enums, add a single `Other` variant as the first one to allow for new variants to be added. It should abort when used as an input. All other types must not be typedef-ed as such.
