Hello @vjpr , thanks for creating this issue and for your extensive research on this matter :)
The solution is to use the legacy pass manager.
Unfortunately, the Legacy PM will be removed after LLVM 14?
This information should be added to the readme.md.
Good point! Do you have the bandwidth to create a PR? This would have to be added with the caveat that it will stop working once LLVM 15 is released. Sadly :(
looks like it's never been resolved even though it's pretty old. I would like to add some of my finding
I ran into the same issue while handling one of my recent project. After going through some of the recent llvm documentation, I figured out how to load a custom pass with the new pass manager to the default compilation pipeline
To explain what happened in the command above, pass-plugin loads the library of the pass to the new pass manager. However, afaik, the new pass manager doesn't have the ability to pass a command line argument. so we need to use the plugin to load the library again and use -mllvm for additional custom command line options, refer to CommandLine 2.0 Library Manual for how to add a command line option in llvm pass code.
Lastly, as the original post mentioned, the correct entry point needed to be used (e.g. registerPipelineStartEPCallback, registerOptimizerEarlyEPCallback, etc.). These entry points will be affected whether the program is compiled with -O3 or -O0

I am trying to instrument all function calls in an existing codebase.
I don't want to have to modify existing makefile scripts too extensively.
The solution is to use the legacy pass manager.
It seems that the new pass manager doesn't allow this yet.
You must take care to choose the correct extension point. See here are the extension points. See [here] (https://github.com/rdadolf/clangtool/blob/353b80061ce30c3062bbe4752dbaa2a1c84cc9c8/clangtool.cpp#L42-L49) for an explanation of which ones to use.
