go-llvm: use context-aware LLVM C APIs for functions deprecated in LLVM 22 - #76
Merged
Conversation
…VM 22 LLVM 22 deprecated 8 global-context C API functions in favor of their context-aware counterparts. Instead of suppressing the warnings, call the non-deprecated InContext APIs directly. The non-context Go functions (MDKindID, StructType, ConstString, ConstStruct, AddBasicBlock, InsertBasicBlock) now delegate to GlobalContext().<method>(), which already calls the InContext C APIs. IntPtrType calls LLVMIntPtrTypeInContext directly. Only LLVMGetGlobalContext still needs a warning-suppression wrapper in deprecated.c since it has no non-deprecated replacement. The context-aware C APIs have been available since well before LLVM 14, so this works across all supported LLVM versions. Signed-off-by: deadprogram <ron@hybridgroup.com>

Updated this PR to actually call the context-aware functions, not just surpress the warnings. |

LLVM 22 deprecated 8 global-context C API functions in favor of their
context-aware counterparts. Instead of suppressing the warnings, call
the non-deprecated InContext APIs directly.
The non-context Go functions (MDKindID, StructType, ConstString,
ConstStruct, AddBasicBlock, InsertBasicBlock) now delegate to
GlobalContext().(), which already calls the InContext C APIs.
IntPtrType calls LLVMIntPtrTypeInContext directly.
Only LLVMGetGlobalContext still needs a warning-suppression wrapper
in deprecated.c since it has no non-deprecated replacement.
The context-aware C APIs have been available since well before LLVM 14,
so this works across all supported LLVM versions.
Here is an example:
