llvm dev - Oct 2011 - [LLVMdev] [3.0 Release] Call for External Open Source Projects Using LLVM 3.0

Good day!

To get ready for the release, we need to make sure that the list of external
open source projects using LLVM 3.0
(file:///Volumes/Sandbox/llvm/llvm.src/docs/ReleaseNotes.html#externalproj) is
up to date. Please send me an email with the project's name and a short
description of it. Alternatively, if the project was commented out and you would
still like to be listed, just tell me and I'll uncomment the blurb. :-)

Share and enjoy!

Hi Bill,

project name: ClamAV

Short description (based on LLVM 2.8 release notes) below.
(note that ClamAV's embedded copy of LLVM is still at 2.8, since 2.9 and 3.0
have buggy SSP).

<a href="http://www.clamav.net">Clam AntiVirus</a> is an
open source (GPL) anti-virus toolkit for UNIX,
designed especially for e-mail scanning on mail gateways.
Since version 0.96 it has <a
href="http://vrt-sourcefire.blogspot.com/2010/09/introduction-to-clamavs-low-level.html">bytecode
signatures</a>
that allow writing detections for complex malware.
It uses LLVM's JIT to speed up the execution of bytecode on X86, X86-64,
PPC32/64, falling back to its own interpreter otherwise.
The git version was updated to work with LLVM 3.0.

Best regards,
--Edwin

Hi Bill,

Name: Mono (http://www.mono-project.com/)
Description: An open source, cross-platform implementation of C# and
the CLR that is binary compatible with Microsoft.NET. Has an optional,
dynamically-loaded LLVM code generation backend in Mini, the JIT
compiler.

Note that we use a Git mirror of LLVM with some patches. See:
https://github.com/mono/llvm

Regards,
Alex

Name: AddressSanitizer, a fast memory error detector.
URL: http://code.google.com/p/address-sanitizer/
Description: AddressSanitizer uses compiler instrumentation and a
specialized malloc library to find C/C++ bugs such as use-after-free and
out-of-bound accesses to heap, stack and globals. The key feature of the
tool is speed: the average slowdown introduced by AddressSanitizer is less
than 2x.

The ZooLib C++ Cross-Platform Application Framework.

    http://www.zoolib.org/

ZooLib is Open Source under the MIT License.  It provides GUI,
filesystem access, TCP networking, thread-safe memory management,
threading and locking for Mac OS X, Classic Mac OS, Microsoft Windows,
POSIX operating systems with  X11, BeOS, Haiku, Apple's iOS and
Research in Motion's BlackBerry.

My current work is to use CLang's static analyzer to improve ZooLib's
code quality.  I also plan to set up LLVM compiles of the demo
programs and test programs using CLang and LLVM on all the platforms
that CLang, LLVM and ZooLib all support.

Name: ThreadSanitizer, a data race detector.
Description:
ThreadSanitizer is a data race detector for (mostly) C and C++ code,
available for Linux, Mac OS and Windows.
On different systems we use binary instrumentation frameworks
(Valgrind, Pin and DynamoRio) as frontends that generate the program
events for the race detection algorithm.
On Linux there's an option of using LLVM-based compile-time instrumentation.
