'cl::opt' and range checking
Hi LLVM-Devs,
The LLVM 'cl::opt' templates are really useful, and provide a lot of flexibility. But I don't see any support for ranged options. What I would like is to have an option which is an integer type, and to restrict the set of values provided to a simple upper and lower bound, for example between 10 and 2000.
Is there a way of expressing this with the 'cl::opt'

Adding a new target to 'llvm-lld'
Hi LLVM-Devs,
I am considering switching to using 'llvm-lld' instead of Gnu 'ld' in a future revision of our out-of-tree target, and I am wondering is there a getting started guide for how to go about extending 'llvm-lld' to support an additional target.
Thanks,
MartinO

Change in optimisation with UB in mind
With LLVM v5.0, I found failures in some of the 'gcc.c-torture/execute' tests due to a change in the optimisation where undefined behaviour is involved. The tests that fail are the '20040409-[123].c' tests.
The underlying failure is due to the optimisation of the following:
int test2(int x) { return x + INT_MIN; }
from using an ADD instruction to using an OR instruction.

set LLVM_ENABLE_ZLIB=ON with cmake invocation. zlib should be installed
and zlib.h header file needs to be in the header search path.
Is your llvm-profdata tool built together with clang?

Change in optimisation with UB in mind
Yes, the hairy-edges of undefined behaviour - UB is UB.
It does mean that given:
__attribute__((noinline)) int foo(int a, int b) { return a + b; }
int bar1(int x) { return foo(x, INT_MIN); }
int bar2(int x) { return x + INT_MIN; }
'bar1' and 'bar2' have different outcomes.
However, I think that the new optimisation is neat and valid and I am not suggesting that it should

PGO, zlib and 'default.profraw'
We are trying to get PGO working for our embedded out-of-tree target, but the utility 'llvm-profdata' does not like the data we are giving it.
Because this is not a hosted environment, we have to off-chip the profiling data ourselves, and although the data looks okay, 'llvm-profdata' reports the following error:

Hi David,
When I use CMake to configure, ‘zlib’ and its header are detected - I build on CentOS 6.5 or CentOS 7. Since I run CMake from the command-line, I tried added ‘-DLLVM_ENABLE_ZLIB=0’ and ‘-DLLVM_ENABLE_ZLIB=1’ (using ‘-DLLVM_ENABLE_ZLIB=ON’ does not seem to work). Both ‘clang’ and ‘llvm-profdata’ (and all other tools and utilities) are configured and built together, in any event,

File/module scope inline assembly
I am trying to support an experimental DSL that uses non-C identifiers, but I want to write the implementation of the runtime support libraries for this DSL in C. The compiler is built using the LLVM v5.0.0 release branch.
To do this I thought I could simply write:
int foo() { return 42; } // The C implementation
asm(".alias nonCname foo"); // Make the non-C name be a synonym for

PGO, zlib and 'default.profraw'
Can we improve the error message here? We should be able to check
zlib::isAvailable and give an error like "profile uses zlib compression
but the profile reader was built without zlib support" or so in this
case.

Adding a new target to 'llvm-lld'
I'm not aware of a written guide either. In 2016 I did a talk on that
subject at the LLVM Cauldron
(http://llvm.org/devmtg/2016-09/#schedule) although quite a bit has
changed since then so I'm hesitant to recommend it apart from general
principles.
I can't speak for the COFF side as I've only worked on the ELF side of
LLD; my suggestions on where to start:

How to add custom instrumentation?
Hi everyone,
I run some functions using ORC JIT, now I need to add custom instrumentation.
I want to add two callbacks to each function: ‘enterFunction' at the beginning and ‘leaveFunction' at the end.
Intuition says that I could ‘just' insert CallInst's to the first and the last basic blocks in the function.
Am I correct? Are there any other/better way to do this? Is there

CTPOP and zeroes
Quick question. The 'ISD::CTPOP' node allows a target to lower the counting of ones in a word to a single instruction. Our target also has an instruction for counting the zeroes in a word. Does CTPOP support counting of zeroes as well as ones instead of doing either "CTPOP(INVERT(operand))" or "N-bits - CTPOP(operand)"?
Thanks,

Change in optimisation with UB in mind
Hi Sanjoy,
Yes these are C tests (from 'gcc.c-torture/execute'), and as I indicated in my original message, the tests are not valid because the behaviour is undefined. However, it was while investigating these new failures in these tests that I realised that this optimisation existed.
The optimisation itself is perfectly valid, but it does mean that integer underflow will no longer be

How to add custom instrumentation?
Thanks for the hint, I didn’t know about this option. That’s a great reference!
However, I am trying to be a compiler/language agnostic.
Also (for whatever reasons) I need a numeric ID of a function rather then its address.
So the question is still opened.
May I assume that the following always holds:
The first basic block in a function is an entry point and the last basic block in a function is

I agree, it's much clearer, it just takes runs at multiple opt levels and
therefore I don't find it to be a "one stop shop".

Changes to 'ADJCALLSTACK*' and 'callseq_*' between LLVM v4.0 and v5.0
Hi Serge,
Thanks for your help. I have looked at the change log, and so far as I can tell, my implementation is pretty much identical to all of the in-tree targets, but I’m missing something and can’t see what it is. I have simplified my TD description to just:
def MyCallseqStart : SDNode<"ISD::CALLSEQ_START",
