Can that happen? I thought non-external linkage always requires an initializer.

You're right, I'm not sure when we should return undef in this case.
Maybe only for external GVs that don't have an initializer, and don't have externally_initialized? Not sure if that even comes up either.
@jdoerfert what should this function do?

IIRC we have some global shared variables in OpenMP DeviceRTL that are marked as uninitialized via attribute.

It looks like the asm parser only allows globals without init if isValidDeclarationLinkage, but I don't see other calls of the function -- we're probably missing verifier enforcement for this?

@nikic Can I land the patch ? It'd fix a crash we've seen in the LTO pipeline.

On a second look, we do have a verifier check here:

Check(!GV.isDeclaration() || GV.hasValidDeclarationLinkage(),
"Global is external, but doesn't have external or weak linkage!", &GV);

So I believe you should just drop the !hasInitializer check here. (Or make it an assert.)

return UndefValue::get(&Ty);
} else {
// Externally visible global that's either non-constant,
// or a constant with an uncertain initializer.
if (!GV->hasDefinitiveInitializer() || !GV->isConstant())
return nullptr;
}

if (!Initializer)
Initializer = GV->getInitializer();
