[LLVMdev] byval in a world without pointee types
...hat I'll attempt to express here: * When you get right down to it, byval seems rather similar to alloca and global variables (they're all just some number of bytes with a required alignment) * If we're changing byval should we change alloca and/or globals, too? (I'm a bit more of a pragmatist in this domain, and I'm not /too/ fussed about changing the one that's tricky (byval) and leaving the other two) * We could just change their IR APIs to take a type but lower to bytes+alignment - textual/bitcode would be all size+alignment, but the C++ APIs for creating these constructs wou...

Take it with a grain of salt. If LLVA isn't "real world" or "intended for end-user", how valuable is it as a research tool? While I agree that it might be useful as a proof-of-concept, research needs to founded in reality (i.e. how real users would use...

Some "new" stuff for hist.R
...re almost identical. Then, there's adding. To find a subset sequence, I wrote a sub.vector-function, admittedly very ugly, what I really wanted was a function that would output the union of sequences and pad the rest with zeros. Anyway, the function solves my problem... (I'm not usually a pragmatist... :-)) Then, there's the add.histogram function that outputs a histogram object. I tried to declare "+".histogram, "%+%".histogram and things like that, in the hope of creating a binary operator for histograms, but I couldn't get it to work. Anyway, this is what I'v...

[LLVMdev] Removal of IA-64 target
...to admit that the architecture geek in me *really* likes Itanium, and it definitely was the "full employment guarantee for compiler engineers". :) I think it's a shame that it didn't catch on more, if only to provide more diversity in the architecture space. However, the pragmatist in me sees it as a dead architecture. Being dead in-and-of-itself doesn't mean it shouldn't have an LLVM backend: for example, I consider Alpha more-dead than Itanium :). However, maintaining an LLVM backend is a significant amount of work, and given that we've had an itanium ba...

Who is going to AstriCon (The Asterisk Conference)?
Hi, I'm taking a straw-poll to see who out there is planning on going to AstriCon. I would like to hear from both new members of the community and gurus. What kinds of things would you like to see at an Asterisk Conference? What topics are good BOF (Birds Of a Feather - informal discussion group) fodder? What parts of Asterisk require the most attention? FYI - AstriCon is October 12 - 14

network design philosophy and practice
I'm wondering how prevalent the practice of physically segregating voice and data networks is in the Real World. What are the factors that typically lead to such a decision?

text-mode system and /media
I'm running a headless server, so no GUI, just ssh logins. I don't seem to have the mechanism that automounts USB drives to a subdirectory of /media, and from googling around I think that's a feature of a GUI-based system. What implements it? Right now I manually create a mountpoint in /mnt and then manually mount by label from /dev/disk/by-label after plugging the drive in. It

Using puppet to manage user access to servers.
I''m guessing this is a common use case, but I wasn''t able to find anything in the site FAQ. We''re looking at using Puppet on about 100 servers to control which user groups have access to which servers. The use case is as follows: We have Groups of servers, for example: CUSTOMERservers (serverA, serverB, ...,serverK) ADMINISTRATIVEservers
