feat(llvm): Phase 132 - Fix PHI instruction ordering bug
Structural fix for LLVM backend PHI placement issue discovered in Phase 131. Changes: - Modified ensure_phi() to position PHI before existing instructions - Enhanced setup_phi_placeholders() with debug mode - Created phi_placement.py utility for validation - Added test script for representative cases Technical approach: - PHI creation during setup (before block lowering) - Explicit positioning with position_before(instrs[0]) - Debug infrastructure via NYASH_PHI_ORDERING_DEBUG=1 Design principles: - PHI must be created when blocks are empty - finalize_phis only wires, never creates - llvmlite API constraints respected Phase 132 complete. Ready for Phase 133 (ConsoleBox integration). 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

PHI Placement Module - Phase 132
|
||||
|
||||
This module is responsible for ensuring that PHI instructions are placed at the
|
||||
beginning of LLVM basic blocks, as required by LLVM IR specification.
|
||||
|
||||
LLVM Requirements:
|
||||
- PHI instructions MUST be grouped at the beginning of a basic block
|
||||
- PHI instructions MUST come before any other non-PHI instructions
|
||||
- PHI instructions MUST come before the terminator (ret/branch/jump)
|
||||
|
||||
The problem we solve:
|
||||
In Phase 131, we discovered that finalize_phis() was adding PHI instructions
|
||||
after terminators, causing LLVM IR validation errors.
|
||||
|
||||
Solution:
|
||||
We implement a two-pass approach:
|
||||
1. Collect all PHI nodes that need to be in a block
|
||||
2. Rebuild the block with proper ordering: PHI → non-PHI → terminator
