- In addition to the above canonicalization issue, with LTO
- we should also canonicalize `T (*)[]' to `T *' avoiding
- alias issues with pointer-to element types and pointer-to
- array types.
-
- Likewise we need to deal with the situation of incomplete
- pointed-to types and make `*(struct X **)&a' and
- `*(struct X {} **)&a' alias. Otherwise we will have to
- guarantee that all pointer-to incomplete type variants
- will be replaced by pointer-to complete type variants if
- they are available.
-
- With LTO the convenient situation of using `void *' to
- access and store any pointer type will also become
- more apparent (and `void *' is just another pointer-to
- incomplete type). Assigning alias-set zero to `void *'
- and all pointer-to incomplete types is a not appealing
- solution. Assigning an effective alias-set zero only
- affecting pointers might be - by recording proper subset
- relationships of all pointer alias-sets.
-
- Pointer-to function types are another grey area which
- needs caution. Globbing them all into one alias-set
- or the above effective zero set would work.
-
- For now just assign the same alias-set to all pointers.
