Hello All,

My name is Prakhar Bansal and I am a graduate student in computer
engineering at Iowa State University.
In my research work, I have worked on Memory access monitoring of an
application using the LLVM static analysis framework, where I developed a
tracing tool using an LLVM module pass to perform tracing across multiple
functions using call graph analysis and also implemented static
instrumentation using LLVM APIs, to finally generate memory accesses trace
for a program.

For GSOC'20, I am interested in working on either of 2 research projects
that are based on llvm, First is encoded analysis results in MachineInstr
IR, second is finishing the Slimmer Tool to find potential performance bugs
in programs.

Please provide some pointers on projects encode results in MachineInst IR
and finishing the Slimmer tool project, since the GSoC deadline is
approaching next week.
Thank you.

Regards,
Prakhar Bansal
