Hello, I wanted to ask what the current status of llvm-stack-switch[1] is. Currently, we use uclib for implementing coroutines. The Problem with this is, that you either copy you stack (and invalidate pointers to lokals) or have many stacks on the heap (the is very memory inefficient). Having llvm doing some optimization there would really help. A different approach (for asymmetric coroutines)

This reminds me of Kenneth's "context" proposal from some time back: http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvmdev/2010-April/030787.html I haven't compared the two too closely, but I thought I should throw it out there as food for thought.
