llvm dev - Dec 2015 - How is llvm-avr backound integration going?

How is the llvm-avr backend integration going ? Will it be functional (
experimental ) in the 3.8 release ?  Will Clang recognize options for avr ?

thanks.

Hey Allen,

Progress is slow but it is happening. It will take a number of more
releases until it is ready.

Currently the backend is marked as an 'experimental' target, which means
the only way it can be used is by compiling LLVM from source and passing
'-DLLVM_EXPERIMENTAL_TARGETS=AVR' to CMake.

At the moment almost no AVR-specific code has been merged, including clang
support, which should come after the backend is functional.

To those interested in AVR backend additions to LLVM, the LLVM review tools
"Phabricator" ( don't ask me to say that 3 times fast ),  allows
easy
searching.   Go to http://reviews.llvm.org/  and type in AVR in the search
entry.  This will give you a list of the commits, and resolutions.  From my
understanding ( NO Expert ), a large part of the skeleton code has been
added.  The leave the rest of the skeleton,and all the fleshy bits.  Good
progress Dylan!.
