[llvm-dev] [GSoC] Improve parallelism-aware analyses and optimizations
Hello, My name is Nader Al Awar, and I am a master's student at UT Austin. I’m interested in working on the "Improve parallelism-aware analyses and optimizations" project as part of GSoC. I looked at the relevant talks papers and I believe that I would be a good fit. Most of my background is in software engineering and testing, but recently my research has focused on applying HPC to those areas, specifically using CUDA. Besides that, most of my experience is in C++ and I am also familiar with openMP. I have always been interested in compiler optimization and would like to get a chance to work in that field. Are there any tasks I need to complete before I can submit an official proposal? PS: I am resending this email because I accidentally sent it as HTML before Sincerely, Nader Al Awar

Hi to Both, Praveen, I think you didn't CC Johannes. :) I'll give it a try.

Hi Nader, I have cc'ed the project mentor. He is the best person to help you here. All the best.

Hi Nader, I think it is cool that you are interested and it's good you looked through the background already. There is no strict requirement to complete tasks before an official proposal but we always encourage people to get in touch with the list first, which you did, and also get used to the development process we have. That is often done best with a simple task. One thing you could look at is the TODO in OpenMPOpt.cpp:511 and again 557. The problem is that a call graph SCC pass is only allowed (=supposed to) look the given SCC, the transitive callers, and everything transitively called. I called this set of functions a "ModuleSlice". While we don't strictly need a better ModuleSlice set in OpenMPOpt just yet, we will soon. Also, the computation of the ModuleSlice set for a given set of functions should be generic as we need exactly the same logic in other CGSCC passes, e.g. the Attributor. There it should directly show improved behavior and resolve various FIXMEs in the tests. Does this make sense? Feel free to reply with questions. Cheers, Johannes P.S. Check the llvm documentation on how to contribute, how to use phabricator, and coding style ;) On 3/24/20 10:12 AM, Nader Al Awar via llvm-dev wrote: > Hello, > > My name is Nader Al Awar, and I am a master's student at UT Austin. > I’m interested in working on the "Improve parallelism-aware analyses > and optimizations" project as part of GSoC. > > I looked at the relevant talks papers and I believe that I would be a > good fit.

Hi Johannes, Based on my understanding, we need a function that returns a set of pointers to Functions that are either transitively called or call other functions transitively. Is that correct? Also, when you say that the computation of the ModuleSlice has to be generic, do you mean that the container of the Function pointers is generic? As in it could be a SetVector or SmallPtrSet? Or are you saying that the condition that decides whether a Function belongs to the returned slice is generic? If the condition is generic, I'm guessing the best way to do that is by passing a lambda? Also, would the best place to define this function be inside a container class?
