Hello,
This seems to be related to how you built LLVM. It does indeed segfault reliably when pocl is built against my distribution's LLVM; OTOH it works fine when using my own build of LLVM. I think this comes down to CMake "build mode" when building LLVM; i usually use RelWithDebInfo while distribution LLVMs usually build in Release mode. We could probably #ifdef this out in pocl, though it could also be a bug in LLVM. Sidenote: if you're looking into LLVM's autovectorizer, in my experience it refuses to vectorize almost all floating-point code unless you provide it with options like -cl-unsafe-math (with obvious drawbacks). It might be worth a try though. OTOH, most of the math functions in pocl's kernel library (https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenCL/sdk/1.2/docs/man/xhtml/mathFunctions.html) have explicitly vectorized sources and will use even AVX512 if it's available. But i'm afraid your OpenCL sources would have to be explicitly vectorized to take advantage of these. Sidenote 2: if you run into something that's obviously a bug, please file an issue in https://github.com/pocl/pocl/issues - the mailing list is more useful for discussing ideas or asking for help.
