            Bug ID: 46490
           Summary: Failure to optimize sprintf of single string to strcpy
                    instead of using strlen+strcpy
           Product: libraries
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: RESOLVED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: Scalar Optimizations
          Assignee: unassignedb...@nondot.org
          Reporter: gabrav...@gmail.com
                CC: llvm-bugs@lists.llvm.org
            Status: RESOLVED
        Resolution: DUPLICATE

void f(char *p, const char *s)
{
    sprintf(p, "%s", s);
}

This can be optimized to `strcpy(p, s)`. This transformation is done by GCC.
but not by LLVM, which instead transforms it to `memcpy(p, s, strlen(s) + 1)`
