Hi Timo, your approach is quite similar to the one in the patch I sent a couple of weeks ago. I also have the Bundle (derivate from MachineInstruction so I call it "MachineInstructionBundle") and pack/unpack so RegAlloc works on the bundles… I really think this is the way to incorporate VLIW support to LLVM. I guess a need for some of this to make to LLVM trunk is to have a backend that uses it (can some dev confirm this?). My backend is still on the works, I have only a synthet...

...nd yet. Have you some example of your code? Best, Julien.

Hi all, I worked the last 2 years on a LLVM back-end that supports clustered and non-clustered VLIW architectures. I also wrote a paper about it that is currently within the review process and is hopefully going to be accepted. Here is a small summary how I realized VLIW support with a LLVM back-end. I also used packing and unpacking of VLIW bundles. My implementations do not require any

Hi all, here is the current (unfinished) version of the VLIW support I mentioned. It is a patch over svn rev 141176. It includes the MachineInstrBundle class, and small required changes in a couple of outside LLVM files. Also includes a modification to Mips target to simulate a 2-wide VLIW MIPS. The scheduler is really silly, I did not want to implement a scheduler, just the bundle class, and
