llvm dev - Oct 2019 - Full 'restrict' support in LLVM.

Hi all,

I am happy to announce that Synopsys wants to contribute its
implementation of 'C99 restrict' to the LLVM project. [1]

This implementation is based on Hal Finkel's local restrict patches
and on the 'RFC: Full 'restrict' support in LLVM' [2]

Any help with extra testing and code review is welcome.

To be generally useful, there are also some small gaps [1] that need to be
filled:
IR bitcode support and the new pass manager support.
Any help with those is also welcome !
 
Thanks,

Jeroen Dobbelaere

This is super exciting, and congratulations!   Do you happen to have a design
doc somewhere that is better formatted than the llvm-dev archive link
<https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-March/131127.html>?

Nice!

I think we have found our champion to reboot
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2014/n4150.pdf
into a proposal for C++23 too. :-)

I reposted the RFC and a better formatted version is available now at:
