similar to: [LLVMdev] Using PCHs for IR coding?

All, Chris Lattner and I had a recent discussion about merging the HLVM (http://hlvm.org/) and LLVM (http://llvm.org/) projects. We agreed in principle and the merging of the two projects will now commence. This merger makes sense for both projects. LLVM needs to expand into the realm of front end tool kits. HLVM provides LLVM with some initial front-end capabilities. Since HLVM uses LLVM and

The (new) HLVM project is continuing to improve and I have graphed and analysed some performance-related data. Beating OCaml on numerical performance using LLVM turned out to be quite easy on x86: http://flyingfrogblog.blogspot.com/2009/03/performance-ocaml-vs-hlvm-beta-04.html This was achieved using a single optimization pass in HLVM (unrolling) and none of LLVM's own IR optimization

Someone is trying to work on HLVM with me but they're hitting a problem that we have not been able to resolve. Specifically, GCC seems to be performing some kind of sanity check for "stack smashing" and is calling abort because it is unhappy with something that the code is doing. However, I am not sure what and cannot reproduce the problem. The stack trace they have given me is:

There's a README.txt in the subversion repository: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/hlvm/trunk/README.txt which says: HLVM comes with documentation in HTML format. These are provided in

I have committed the changes to HLVM that bring it up to date with respect to the new LLVM 2.6 release: http://hlvm.forge.ocamlcore.org/ This required handling of llcontexts and the injection of a call to the new Llvm_executionengine.initialize_native_target function (that is undocumented) *before* the JIT EE is created, otherwise LLVM resorts to the LLVM interpreter which breaks at

Hi, I am senior student at Tashkent University of Information Technologies and I am highly interested in programming language design. I want to develop Python front-end for HLVM as a part of LLVM participation in Google Summer of Code project. I am in long love with Python programming language for its simplicity and effectiveness. Last year I noticed ShedSkin Python to C++ translator among SoC

HLVM is a garbage collected virtual machine built upon LLVM: http://forge.ocamlcore.org/projects/hlvm/ The development of HLVM was described in a series of three OCaml Journal articles that turned out to be among our most popular. Consequently, we have decided to run another series of related articles that build upon this foundation in order to develop complete compilers. The first article

I took the first two lines of the sample program in the tutorial: hendrik at lovesong:~/dv/lang/hlvm$ cat broken.cpp #include "llvm/DerivedTypes.h" #include "llvm/Module.h" hendrik at lovesong:~/dv/lang/hlvm$ and tried to compile them using the llvm-dev in Debian testing: hendrik at lovesong:~/dv/lang/hlvm$ g++ -o broken.o -c broken.cpp In file included from

When I type the command as you provided it (using cut-and-paste) I get: hendrik at lovesong:~/dv/lang/hlvm$ g++ -o broken.o `llvm-config --cxxflags`

In case anyone was interested... this turned out to be a Super BONEHEAD problem.... My printer name was "testron". Well... come to find out, I have a share with the same name. Imagine that. Just an FYI to those new to samba... can't have printer & share names the same. ======================== I've recently started adding WinXP (and 2000) clients to my network.

I have been working on a high-level virtual machine built upon LLVM since Christmas 2008 and just released the first working version: http://forge.ocamlcore.org/projects/hlvm/ This alpha release of HLVM provides: . Unit, bool, int and float primitive types. . Tuples (as first-class structs). . Homogeneous array type. . Boxed value type. . Function pointers. . Generic printing. . Full tail

The HLVM project is a high-level VM optimized for scientific computing: http://www.ffconsultancy.com/ocaml/hlvm/ I implemented the first-working version of a garbage collector capable of collecting from threads that run in parallel in November. Initial performance was awful due to the overhead of accessing thread-local data via POSIX pthreads. I just completed optimizing HLVM so

What happened to the HLVM project? I understand it was intended to be a high-level VM specifically for dynamic languages and this post indicates that it was integrated into the LLVM project last year: http://www.nabble.com/NEWS:-HLVM-merges-with-LLVM-td9627113.html But I cannot find any code in LLVM that looks like it would have come from HLVM. -- Dr Jon Harrop, Flying Frog Consultancy

Would you then agree with me that "LLVM's garbage collection facilities, _as described in the LLVM documentation_, are too difficult to use"?

I failed to get my point across. You're still talking about the difficulty of using LLVM's GC support. I was talking about circumventing it. The shadow stack HLVM uses
