llvm dev - Apr 2017 - http://llvm.org/OpenProjects.html#thinlto_global

Good evening.

I got interested in helping with ThinLTO,
I did watch this video, https://youtu.be/9OIEZAj243g and i found it very
interesting.
I got C++ knowledge, but not a lot of llvm/clang source knowledge...
Also, there is no mentors related in the website for this project.

Would the community be so kind in giving me information on how to help?
I have started reading the documentation on the website related to the llvm
project as a start.

Thank you.
Jhonny Vargas

Hi Jhonny,
Thanks for the interest, Mehid (cc) with Teresa (cc) are probably the best
people to ask about this project.
I am not sure what exactly the project contain, but if it contains
propagating of attributes, I would focus on the understanding of parameters
and functions attributes in LLVM (
http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#parameter-attributes and
http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#function-attributes) and start reading
ThinLTO code (like FunctionImporter).

Hope you will have fun with ThinLTO
Piotr

Hi Jhonny,

Thanks for your interest in ThinLTO! Are you looking for a summer project,
or ongoing work in compilers, or clang/llvm specifically? Are you a
student? Note that these were project ideas for Google Summer of Code. The
GSoC application deadline has passed and we did have a student apply to
work on this particular project. So if that application ends up being
accepted then we will have someone working on that one. However, there are
other things to be done for ThinLTO, if you are interested in working on
it. I likely won't have the bandwidth to mentor another person, but of
course am happy to give pointers and advice, review patches, etc.

Teresa
