Those two sums are 2018-11-29 03:11:12 and 2017-01-29 10:49:52 UTC if they're epoch timestamps! Does that help? :)

did you try to print your args after they are created into LLVM values ?

LLVMGenericValueRef args[] = {
    LLVMCreateGenericValueOfInt(LLVMInt32Type(), x, 0),
    LLVMCreateGenericValueOfInt(LLVMInt32Type(), y, 0)
};

check what is in this args.
