Description

LLVM converts all standard integer types (either signed or unsigned) to 'int32' with no sign and supports both signed and unsigned integers constants. But when CBackend prints variables having integer types it must say what type they have. It assumes that all such variables have 'unsigned int'. So then it has to convert all constants to unsigned equivalents. But it seems that afterwards cil+blast doesn't accept this correctly (they don't understand that the '4 million' constant is simply '-4').

For example, these drivers are reported as incorrect due to this bug. Funny, but they're all TIME LIMITs if checked without LLVM:
  • drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/af9015.c unsafe
  • drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/au6610.c unsafe
  • drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/ce6230.c unsafe
  • drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/cxusb.c unsafe
  • drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/digitv.c unsafe
  • drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/dtv5100.c unsafe
  • drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/dw2102.c unsafe
  • drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/gl861.c unsafe
  • drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/gp8psk.c unsafe

It seems that this bug prevent some aspect models like 08_1 from correct verification.
We've to think about usage of LLVM at all...

I assume that we won't depend on this bug if we'll finish use of llvm. So we don't need to spend our time to resolve this issue.

Should we close it?

I think that we shouldn't hurry. This bug blocks #876 ("Issues related with LLVM usage should be removed") that in turn consists of a lot of "LLVM" bugs. So I suggest that we will close all of them immediately when we will say that the new aspectator works well enough (and doesn't contain non of those bugs indeed).

There is no more the given issue since we have moved aspectator from LLVM to GCC.
