Hello, Aaron

Did you mean Position Independent Code? If so - there is nothing
special here, LLVM just implements (when this is implemented) what is
defined in platform ABI.

Anton,

Sorry I have not replied earlier.

Can I ask what platform ABI's are documented other than Itanium ?

I need to get to understand PIC on x86, x86_64 and PowerPC for the COFF and
MachO backends.

Thanks,

Aaron
