[LLVMdev] Is it possible to use EE within optimization pass?
I realize my questions may not have been so clear. To give more details. I am writing a fuction pass. I want to interpret some of the instructions within the function pass. In order to do so, I need to create an EE object within the function pass. Now, If I compile and execute using opt. I get an error(Error loading symbol) at the line where I am creating EE. opt: symbol lookup error: ../../../build/Release/lib/Try.so: undefined symbol: _ZN4llvm15ExecutionEngine6createEPNS_14ModuleProviderEbPSs So, I thought I need to link the EE library files as it is not able to load EE. In order to do so, I added the line LINK_COMPONENTS=engine to the Makefile. Now, when I execute using opt, I get the error that the pass is registered multiple times. I know that there has to be a way out of this. Please let me know how I should link/load the EE library files with my optimization pass. I hope the question is clear now. Sorry for repeating so many times. thanks, Bhavani --- On Mon, 10/27/08, John Criswell <criswell at cs.uiuc.edu> wrote:> From: John Criswell <criswell at cs.uiuc.edu> > Subject: Re: [LLVMdev] Is it possible to use EE within optimization pass? > To: "bhavi63 at yahoo.com" <bhavi63 at yahoo.com> > Cc: "LLVM Developers Mailing List" <llvmdev at cs.uiuc.edu> > Date: Monday, October 27, 2008, 3:22 PM > bhavani krishnan wrote: > > Thanks John!

Please let me know how I should link/load the EE library files with my optimization pass.Make sure you aren't linking both your pass against the EE and the opt program against the EE.> I hope the question is clear now. Sorry for repeating so many times.If you're in a rush, I suggest that you just drop 'opt' and build your own standalone opt-like program which is linked against the execution engine and your optimization pass (ie., not using -load) and whatever other things you need. I also suggest linking with LINK_COMPONENTS=all, since that mysteriously seems to avoid all linker errors. Otherwise, you may want to try tracking down which pass is being registered multiple times, and work backwards to find out which file is getting linked twice. I wouldn't approach this from the angle that you're doing anything wrong. Rather, assume that LLVM's dependencies and LINK_COMPONENTS system is buggy and try to figure out how and why. Hope that helps.

[LLVMdev] Is it possible to use EE within optimization pass?
Thanks Nick and others who replied. I just fixed the issue. I compiled opt by linking executionengine into it and now I am able to create jit from within the optimization pass. --- On Mon, 10/27/08, Nick Lewycky <nicholas at mxc.ca> wrote:> From: Nick Lewycky <nicholas at mxc.ca> > Subject: Re: [LLVMdev] Is it possible to use EE within optimization pass? > To: bhavi63 at yahoo.com, "LLVM Developers Mailing List" <llvmdev at cs.uiuc.edu> > Date: Monday, October 27, 2008, 4:36 PM > bhavani krishnan wrote: > > I realize my questions may not have been so clear.
