Looks sane. Thanks.

Hi everyone, Here's a patch that enables exception handling when jitting. I've copy/pasted _many_code from lib/Codegen/DwarfWriter.cpp, so we may need to factorize it, but the functionality is there and I'm very happy with it :) lli should now be able to execute the output from llvm-gcc when using exceptions (the UnwindInst instruction is not involved in this patch). Just add the

Dear all, Here's a new patch with Evan's comments (thx Evan!) and some cleanups. Now the (duplicated) exception handling code is in a new file: lib/ExecutionEngine/JIT/JITDwarfEmitter. This patch should work on linux/x86 and linux/ppc (tested). Nicolas -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed... Name: jit-exceptions.patch URL:

Hi Evan, My apologies: I've been so excited on sharing the functionality that I forgot to review my patch!

I posted the bug at http://sourceforge.net/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=130992&group_id=13478 . Since all my other discs were encoding fine I thought that the wav file may be corrupt/invalid/or something. I opened them with cool edit and "saved as"ed them to my drive. These files encoded fine and the extraced/converted files have the correct md5sum. Is there a program that can

Hi All, I'd like to propose a fast path through code generation for x86-84 in the JIT execution engine as part of 2011's Google Summer of Code program. While the LLVM-JIT is very popular as a first try at jitting programming languages, projects have abandoned the LLVM-JIT when disappointed with the overall runtime. The problem is, that the benefit of faster execution is traded for longer

I like the idea of a generic MachineCodeWriter, although I prefer the name 'ObjectFileWriter'... I think we need to take a hard look at which bits of the Writer/Emitter infrastructure are needed for what tasks (Object File Emittion, JIT, etc.) and make sure that our abstractions are flexible enough... As it stands at the moment, the Writer and Emitter classes could definately be merged

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 Evan, Evan Cheng wrote: > 1) How are you computing size of the method being > jitted? I add a new pass with addSimpleCodeEmitter, with the emitter being a SizeEmitter. 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

Currently, the MachO and ELF Writers and MachineCodeEmitters are hard-coded into LLVMTargetMachine and llc. In other words, the 'object file generation' capabilities of the Common Code Generator are not generic. LLVMTargetMachine::addPassesToEmitFile explicitly checks whether the derived backend TargetMachine implements one of getMachOWriterInfo or getELFWriterInfo, and returns a
