Thank you for you nice answer. But I'am sorry, I find the question I was asked is not what I really want. my situation is that I want to write a LLVM pass to check a large progress. what is the simplest way for me to make the progress become checkable? 2015-06-25 1:54 GMT+08:00 Pete Cooper <peter_cooper at apple.com>:> > On Jun 24, 2015, at 10:19 AM, Eli Bendersky <eliben at google.com> wrote: > > > > On Wed, Jun 24, 2015 at 7:05 AM, Q Z <zhaoqian301 at gmail.com> wrote: > >> Hello，I want to compile a large project(for example,Apache httpd) to one >> .bc file.

But I'am sorry, I find the question I was asked is not what I really want. my situation is that I want to write a LLVM pass to check a large progress. what is the simplest way for me to make the progress become checkable?I think it depends the kind of check you want to perform. If it is something local enough that a function pass or module pass would work, you may not need the entire project as a whole in a single IR file. In this case you can add your pass to the pipeline and recompile clang or again depending on what you want to perform you can try a solution like this: https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~asampson/blog/clangpass.html <https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~asampson/blog/clangpass.html> — Mehdi> > 2015-06-25 1:54 GMT+08:00 Pete Cooper <peter_cooper at apple.com <mailto:peter_cooper at apple.com>>: > >> On Jun 24, 2015, at 10:19 AM, Eli Bendersky <eliben at google.com <mailto:eliben at google.com>> wrote: >> >> >> >> On Wed, Jun 24, 2015 at 7:05 AM, Q Z <zhaoqian301 at gmail.com <mailto:zhaoqian301 at gmail.com>> wrote: >> Hello，I want to compile a large project(for example,Apache httpd) to one .bc file.
