There was a problem hiding this comment.
Does bcx not have a method for this? common is rather jarring IMO (though I dislike the module more than the name).
…ait objects For method calls through trait objects, we currently generate the llvm function argument attributes using the non-opaque method signature that still has the trait object fat pointer for the self pointer. This leads to attributes that are plain wrong, e.g. noalias. As we don't know anything about the concrete type of the underlying object, we must replace the self argument with an opaque i8 pointer before applying the attributes.

For method calls through trait objects, we currently generate the llvm
function argument attributes using the non-opaque method signature that
still has the trait object fat pointer for the self pointer. This leads
to attributes that are plain wrong, e.g. noalias. As we don't know
anything about the concrete type of the underlying object, we must
replace the self argument with an opaque i8 pointer before applying the
attributes.
