Discussion:
I tried this code: The assertion shouldn't fail, because is and so the parameter to the function should be , but the assertion still fails. : It seems that the bug only occurs when using or and after updating to LLVM 17.
Results in: This makes use of the on the second load in a way that is not legal (note the absence of -- and the memory is indeed uninitialized).

It seems, that bug was introduced between 1.69 and 1.70:
I am not particularly well versed in miscompilations, but the IR we emit to LLVM looks fine. Investigating more later, but I suspect an LLVM update affects this.
reduced LLVM IR: optimizes to Needs + to reproduce. Looks like the tail call optimization pass writes into the argument, even thou it is at that point. Did not bisect, but this was probably introduced by the upgrade to LLVM 16: label A-llvm I-unsound
If anyone's interested in a Rust level test, it can be reduced a decent amount: looking at that LLVM IR it could probably be reduced more, but really at this point there's not a whole lot left to remove.
Yeah, it looks like tailcallelim introducing a write to a parameter is the culprit. Strangely, Alive2 is okay with writing to a argument, and only thinks it's UB if it's non-: This makes some sense semantically (since the hidden copy of the argument means modifications aren't visible to the caller), but seems to be in contradiction with the langref, which : Opened

label +T-compiler +I-compiler-nominated Nominating for compiler discussion, because is proposing the LLVM fix for backport to our 16 branch in , in hopes of getting this into 1.72-beta.

We don't really have a policy mechanism for this since master has already moved to LLVM 17, but we could accept that LLVM 16 backport in our fork and then update the LLVM 16 submodule directly in beta. (That would also pull in .)
I think this backport was necessary. It may have led to other undetected end-to-end miscompilation. Something unexpected seems to have happened. Should we create a new rustc branch of llvm-project every time we create a beta branch?
label +regression-from-stable-to-stable
It doesn't come up often, but we always have the option of adding a branch if needed. I think this particular case is innocuous enough to allow, but I didn't want it to sneak in without notice.
Okay, I can reopen a new PR for the new branch if needed.
Thanks for nominating We during the compiler triage meeting today and think that accepting a beta-backport of would be best to mitigate this miscompilation. We would prefer not to take at the same time and would rather let that ride the normal release train if that's possible?
Since the master branch has been switched to LLVM 17. Possibly revert at branch rustc/16.0-2023-06-05 is also fine?
In a way, that PR's backport got orphaned because its version of the submodule was derailed from the release train, replaced by our LLVM 17 update. But the original change it wanted is part of 17, so it will ride the train that way. Yes, I think that sounds fine. Please go ahead and add that revert to rust-lang/llvm-project, noting these reasons in the revert commit message. When we apply the submodule update to beta, it should ideally come with a rust codegen test, and we'll also want that test to land on master when LLVM 17 is fixed. (And don't close this issue until then!)
This patch has been backported to LLVM 17. I will pick the test from
Awesome, thank you both and
72-beta's LLVM 16 was fixed in , so I'm moving the milestone to 1.73 until we update and test LLVM 17.
