[llvm-dev] [GSoC '20 Project Interest] - Improve MergeFunctions to incorporate MergeSimilarFunction patches and ThinLTO Support
Hello, I'm Ruijie Fang, currently a 1st-year undergraduate at Princeton University, majoring in Computer Science. I am writing to to express my interest in the Google Summer of Code project: Improve MergeFunctions to incorporate MergeSimilarFunction patches and ThinLTO Support. I've read the LCTES'14 paper and found it quite interesting and comprehensible. I've also went as far as starting to read the source code for the stack of patches listed on the LLVM GSoC website. I'm wondering if anyone could provide some advice/tips on getting started on this project, or writing my project proposal. I'm also in contact with the project mentor, Aditya Kumar --- I'm also posting here per his request and for additional input. ( A bit about myself: I am taking an LLVM-based compilers course (COS320 [1]) this semester; I'm doing well in the course and enjoyed writing compiler-related projects. A few years back, I was a research assistant at Temple University's CS department working on fault-tolerant parallel programming on distributed shared memory using tuple spaces. So I have a bit of prior experience programming large, production-quality, systems code in C/C++. Besides that, I'm also fluent in OCaml (which our compilers course uses), and a few other languages, including familiarity with LLVM IR and x86/ARM assembly. My GitHub account is at https://github.com/thefangbear and https://github.com/ruijiefang.) Thank you, and looking forward to replies!

Thanks Johannes, Just sent an email to llvm-dev with a starter assignment.
