Ruby on rail newbie
...t have this place there. I''m a one-year experienced php developper. I use this language for all my web applications. I prefer php to Java/J2ee because, of its simple features, its powerness and the fact that it let the user choose the way he wants to program(This is particularly benefical when i''m prototyping) For me the shibboleth of j2ee is: "why make it simple when we can make it complicated". On the other side, i find that php lacks of high level components. I mean, you have to male your own database abstractions, and your own components to make your d...

[LLVMdev] Register allocation marking spills (Re: NumLoads/NumStores for linearscan?)
...h the "local" allocator)? I still haven't grokked very well the interaction between RALinScan and Spiller... Should I add those two statistics to the spiller's class? hmm, having information if an operation is (a, or part of a) spill generated by the register allocation would be benefical in some cases; Those memory operations cannon alias with any other memory operations in the code, so it would help Alias Analysis. (though I'm not sure if anyone else than us at the TCE project have any use for alias analysis after regalloc) We actually have our own hacked version of the li...

[LLVMdev] XOR Optimization
...hich OR is faster than ADD nor more energy-efficient. They're all done by the same ALU circuitry which delays the pipeline by its worstcase path timing. So, for modern processor hardware purposes, OR is exactly equal ADD. Transforming ADD to OR isn't strenght reduction at all. Maybe this is benefical only if you have a backend generating circuitry (programming FPGAs). I believe that in cases where ADD and OR are equivalent, LLVM prefers the latter because it's easier to reason about the bits in the result of an OR in complex cases. The x86 backend, for instance, transforms ORs in such ca...

RFC: alloca -- specify rounding factor for allocation (and more)
Hi sorta piggybacking on the other thread. I am looking for some feedback on how to implement the following idea in llvm. The really short version of the idea is this: * I want to alloca a field (record/struct), so that its size is an even multiple of 64 bytes. [^1] * This allocaed field will be exclusively used as an argument to functions * llvm should be aware of the extra bytes and should

CentOS Based Linux Firewall Document
I know that some of you from the list have asked me in the past for a copy of my CentOS based Linux Firewall document. There are also those that have no clue what I am talking about. This is for the former group... There is a new version of my document out. It's changed quite a bit since the last person asked me for it. Some of the changes are: * Updated the scripts in the Useful Shell
