[CodeGen] Suppress emission of lifetime markers if a label has been seen
in the current lexical scope. clang currently emits the lifetime.start marker of a variable when the variable comes into scope even though a variable's lifetime starts at the entry of the block with which it is associated, according to the C standard. This normally doesn't cause any problems, but in the rare case where a goto jumps backwards past the variable declaration to an earlier point in the block (see the test case added to lifetime2.c), it can cause mis-compilation. To prevent such mis-compiles, this commit conservatively disables emitting lifetime variables when a label has been seen in the current block. This problem was discussed on cfe-dev here: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/cfe-dev/2016-July/050066.html rdar://problem/30153946 Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D27680 llvm-svn: 293106
