Llvm.MetaData

Contents

Synopsis

Metadata can be constructed in a few different ways (See below).

After which it can either be attached to LLVM statements to pass along

Metadata expressions -- these are the raw metadata values that encode

Metadata nodes -- global metadata variables that attach a metadata

Named metadata -- global metadata variables that attach a metadata nodes

Attach to instructions -- metadata can be attached to LLVM instructions

As arguments -- llvm functions can take metadata as arguments, for

As a named metadata -- Here the metadata is simply declared in global

A reference to an un-named metadata node.
