Subject: Fixed an issue that could cause GetPointeeData() to fail when passing in a non-zero... 
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3a95b5bce2e8fd767a54749ab82446fb749444ba;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fllvm.git

Fixed an issue that could cause GetPointeeData() to fail when passing in a non-zero index.

The issue was we had a global variable that was a pointer, and the address type of the children wasn't "load address" when it needed to be. Full details are in the comments of the changes.
