[objc-arc] Do not mismatch up retains inside a for loop with releases outside...
[objc-arc] Do not mismatch up retains inside a for loop with releases outside said for loop in the presense of differing provenance caused by escaping blocks. This occurs due to an alloca representing a separate ownership from the original pointer. Thus consider the following pseudo-IR: objc_retain(%a) for (...) { objc_retain(%a) %block <- %a F(%block) objc_release(%block) } objc_release(%a) From the perspective of the optimizer, the %block is a separate provenance from the original %a. Thus the optimizer pairs up the inner retain for %a and the outer release from %a, resulting in segfaults. This is fixed by noting that the signature of a mismatch of retain/releases inside the for loop is a Use/CanRelease top down with an None bottom up (since bottom up the Retain-CanRelease-Use-Release sequence is completed by the inner objc_retain, but top down due to the differing provenance from the objc_release said sequence is not completed). In said case in CheckForCFGHazards, we now clear the state of %a implying that no pairing will occur. Additionally a test case is included. rdar://12969722 llvm-svn: 179747
