[clang] callee_type metadata for indirect calls (llvm#163233)

Prabhuk · web-flow · commit 550b62cbcbcb · 2025-10-21T08:02:52.000-07:00
Create and add generalized type identifier metadata to indirect calls, and to functions which are potential indirect call targets. The functions carry the !type metadata. The indirect callsites carry a list of !type metadata values under !callee_type metadata. RFC: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-call-graph-information-from-clang-llvm-for-c-c/88255
