[InstCombine] Avoid use after free in DenseMap, when built with GCC
Previously, this used a statement like this: Map[A] = Map[B]; This is equivalent to the following: const auto &Src = Map[B]; auto &Dest = Map[A]; Dest = Src; The second statement, "auto &Dest = Map[A];" can insert a new element into the DenseMap, which can potentially grow and reallocate the DenseMap's internal storage, which will invalidate the existing reference to the source. When doing the actual assignment, the Src reference is dereferenced, accessing memory that was freed when the DenseMap grew. This issue hasn't shown up when LLVM was built with Clang, because the right hand side ended up dereferenced before evaulating the left hand side. (If the value type is a larger data type, Clang doesn't do this but behaves like GCC.) With GCC, a cast to Value* isn't enough to make it dereference the right hand side reference before invoking operator[] (while that is enough to make Clang/LLVM do the right thing for larger types), but storing it in an intermediate variable in a separate statement works. This fixes PR42065. Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D62624 llvm-svn: 362150
