llvm dev - Feb 2009 - [LLVMdev] llvm on mips

Hi,

I see that llvm has a Mips target already written up. Does anyone know how
current this is? Does anyone maintain this and/or have any details about this
target in terms of functionality regarding JIT etc.?

Also I was trying to configure it with CC and CXX set to the mips 7.4.4
compilers but I get the error gcc|icc not configured. I am a real newb and
don't really get how the gcc front end is used on and sgi Irix platform.

Basically any info would be appreciated

Thanks

Freddy

I'm the current MIPS back-end maintainer. The last improvements came
last year (for llvm 2.3/2.4), and I hope
I can manage my time to improve it more in the next months.
There's no support for JIT yet, patches are welcome :)
