See discussion for v2 of this patch. I suggested that drivers/firmware and virt/
as options, the counterarguments were that drivers/firmware is for passive
firmware as opposed to firmware that acts as a hypervisor, and that virt/ is
for the host side of hypervisors like kvm, not for guests.
The driver in here most closely resembles the xen dom0 model, where a
priviledged guest controls other guests, but...

Suggestion: use mustWork = TRUE as the default for system.file
...ith code like `if(path == "") stop(?Path not found?)`), but I now use
mustWork=TRUE or fs::path_package(), which errors by default.
What are the general thoughts on this issue? I would love to
see mustWork=TRUE become the default in future versions of R, but
I would be happy to hear any counterarguments (or support!) for this
suggestion.
Cheers,

[LLVMdev] [RFC] C++11: 'virtual' and 'override'
While doing the conversion of LLVM_OVERRIDE to 'override' last night, I
noticed that the code base is rather inconsistent on whether the 'virtual'
keyword is also used when 'override' is used.
Should we have a coding standard for this? What's the preferred direction
here? Seems not having 'virtual' is less overall text, but not sure how
others feel.

Upgrade path from CentOS 7 to future versions

Yes, and?? Just because you have one use case where a major version upgrade does not make sense does not mean that major version upgrades don?t make sense everywhere.
I already covered that case in my previous post, and the counterargument remains the same: not all OS upgrades can be coupled with hardware upgrades. VMs are only one reason, though a big one.
As for all the rest of your post, yes, I get it: nothing should ever change, nothing should ever break. You just go and live live that dream. Meanwhile, in my world, chang...

Rotates, once again
...t amt is loop invariant
}
"32 - b" is loop-invariant and gets hoisted, and what's left of the expression doesn't match a known "rotate" pattern (since the DAG can't see across BB boundaries at the moment), so instead we get two shifts and an OR inside the loop.
The counterargument here was that GlobalISel should eventually fix this particular problem, but nevertheless, as of today, LICM breaks recognition of the rotate pattern in this (very simple) loop, and there is reason to believe that other transforms (existing or forthcoming) might well break the pattern as well; t...

Chris is correct at the coarse granularity, but there are some trades to be made at the fine. There is some interesting work from MIT in the context of image processing kernels related to the relative costs of saving intermediates out to cache or DRAM vs recomputing them

R design (was "Variable passed to function not used in function in select)
I've read the back and forth this morning, and I have to side with Vince.
1. Functions that re-interpret their arguments are very dangerous. The
original question involved a well formed call to a function, which returned the
wrong answer. Bug, design flaw, whatever -- it's a mistake and the best choice
would be to fix it.
I only consider such behavior in 2 cases:

Is there any reason why the r-help-mailinglist should not be converted to a

These were the advantages of a newsgroup I mentioned earlier:
-) you can easily search the archives
-) the discussion is faster (I experience that the R-mailinglist has a lag
of about 1 to 2 hours (not for everyone!!!). When I ask a question, I get
