Hi, I cannot manage to reproduce the issue, and it seems to fail only once in our CI. From the log, it seems that the issue is due to the fact that the pointer input to the `Load` is a `Proj` but its input dies, so the cast `as_Multi` in `try_optimize_strict_final_load_memory` fails. I can see a similar check in `MemNode::optimize_simple_memory_chain`. As a result, it is reasonable to just return the top here.
Please take a look and leave your review, thanks a lot. ------------- Commit messages: - Catch the cases when the pointer dies Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/valhalla/pull/2016/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=valhalla&pr=2016&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8376702 Stats: 6 lines in 1 file changed: 3 ins; 0 del; 3 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/valhalla/pull/2016.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/valhalla.git pull/2016/head:pull/2016 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/valhalla/pull/2016
