similar to: [LLVMdev] Print native code emitted by the JIT

Ok, i'm having a problem with understanding the allocating of registers. I've written in the "addPassesToEmitAssembly()" the passes to create the assembly code, as in the PowerPC example. I'ved tried filling up as much of the code in <Target>RegisterInfo.cpp (Register/Frame code) to handle writing and reading from stack. The allocation method I used was

Hi, Two questions. 1) How are you computing size of the method being jitted? 2) Why not simply add the functionality of allocating emission buffer of specific size to MachineCodeEmitter instead?

Hi, If hope this is the right list to post a question like this. If not, my apologies -- please redirect me. Following the Kaledoscope example I am trying to write a simple JIT and compile my own small language using LLVM. Compilation happens using the C++ api by constructing a VM and emitting code using the api (just as the Kaledoscope example). The code in this setup will be optimized

Since the target calls the emitter with functions such as writeByte, writeWord, etc.... the SizeEmitter class implements these function by incrementing a counter. At the end of the pass, the code size of the

Reviewing it a little, I can not see how things won't be duplicated.

Hello, So the current JIT will be superseded by the MCJIT completely and no further development should be expected for the current JIT? In any case, I am definitely interested in submitting a patch if you could help me by sending me in the right direction, since I really want this working. I managed to reproduce this behavior in LLVM 3.0 by modifying llc to read my .bc file and try to JIT the

Hi I have a program similar to kaleidoscope with same optimization passes. It works fine. But when I tried to add Constant Merge Pass with a line: OurFPM.add(createConstantMergePass()); the program died with segmentation fault. Then I tried to add the same line to native kaleidoscope from http://llvm.org/docs/tutorial/LangImpl4.html and I've got the same segmentation fault. The backtrace

Hi everyone, vmkit requires to know the size of a jitted method before emitting the method. This allows to allocate the correct size for the method. The attached patch creates this functionality when the flag SizedMemoryCode is on. In order to implement this functionality, i had to virtualize some MachineCodeEmitter functions. Is it OK to commit the patch? Thanks, Nicolas --------------

Yes. It appears that a bad reference to DataLayout was passed to MachineJumpTableInfo::getEntrySize. I'm using LLVM as a pre-compiled Ubuntu package for this work, so I can't do much more in GDB without building from source. Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00000000007565f0 in llvm::MachineJumpTableInfo::getEntrySize(llvm::DataLayout const&) const () (gdb)

First, you have to call llvm-g++ to use the llvm-gcc front end, but it doesn't matter here. I'd like to suggest that you use pastebin to put your code and the send us the link, so that we can download it. The problem is that TheExecutionEngine is set to NULL (maybe because of a previous error), but it will be really better if you use pastebin. On Wed, Feb 17, 2010 at 6:01 AM, Todd Rovito

Hi Andy, It looks like you're using LLVM's old JIT, rather than MCJIT? The old JIT has been removed from the mainline, and is no longer supported. I'd recommend building your own copy of LLVM from the development branch (as Reed suggested) where MCJIT is used by default - this may fix your issue. If you want to stick with the precompiled binaries, then you should change: #include
