I was thinking of putting some code inside the pass, which breaks the dependency chains, which will avoid this type of conversions when it finds out  that the pointer is _Dependent_ptr qualified otherwise don't do anything. Can you let me know what I am missing on?

That the pointer has an attribute that it's a dependent pointer . How
do you expect the later passes to detect it has a dependent_ptr
attribute attached to it ?

> In transitive nature, are you talking about the dependent pointer being assigned to some non-dependent pointer and after further assigned to some other pointer?


Yes. What's the expected behaviour as per the document ?
