Hi all, I'm a 3rd year CSE B.Tech student and have been studying LLVM since the past year. I have written a pass for doing register allocation as part of my course project and have also been studying LLVM code sections related to SSA construction, dominance frontiers,etc. I also made some contributions to the Polly project. Currently I am interested in improving the existing alias analysis

I think this has to do with how the pass manager is populated when we give -O3 vs when we give particular pass names. Some passes have multiple createXYZPass() methods that accept arguments too. These methods call non-default pass constructors, which in turn cause the passes to behave in a different manner. eg: Pass *llvm::createLICMPass() { return new LegacyLICMPass(); } Pass

Hi, If we add multiple loop passes to the pass manager in PassManagerBuilder.cpp consecutively without any func/module pass in between, I used to think they would belong to the same loop pass manager. But it does not seem to be the case. For example for this code snippet PM.add(createIndVarSimplifyPass()); // Canonicalize indvars MPM.add(createLoopIdiomPass()); //

Hi, I see things like this. What does it mean? Is it documented somewhere?

Hello everyone, My name is Pratik Bhatu, I am a bachelor student currently studying at IIT Hyderabad, India.  I just finished my Compilers course have been exploring LLVM since the past month (kaleidoscope, writing LLVM passes) and am interested in the llvm-polly project. I am also a potential GSoC applicant and wanted to start working on the project from now. Is there a way I can
