You canât add arbitrary chains or glue to the regular nodes, but you can define a custom node you select the same way with your chain/glue. You donât need to preprocess the IR and can do in the custom lowering. This is what AMDGPU does for FDIV (see AMDGPUISD::FMA_W_CHAIN). GlobalISel avoids these complications by not having nodes or chains, and just instructions with side effects, so in that sense this is a solved problem.
