similar to: [LLVMdev] How to create an IntegerType of the native word size

Hello, I am writing a JIT compiler for a subset of the Matlab language and as a part of my implementation, I would like to be able to pass a constant pointer to a native function I'm calling. Right now, this is what I do: llvm::Constant* constInt = llvm::ConstantInt::get(llvm::Type::Int64Ty, (int64)thePointer); llvm::Value* constPtr = llvm::ConstantExpr::getIntToPtr(constInt,

I'm implementing c style "sizeof()", and I did as http://nondot.org/sabre/LLVMNotes/SizeOf-OffsetOf-VariableSizedStructs.txt illuarstrated, and it works find, here's an example of my implementation: auto *p = builder.CreateGEP(structTy, llvm::ConstantPointerNull::get(pointerTy), constint1); auto *size =

Hello, I'm trying to compile vmkit on a x86_64 linux box with gcc-4.1.2, but I'm running into troubles because of various problems with casts between pointers and integers. Is there anybody who succeeded in this task? Az I see, some of the problems can be fixed with an appropriate typedef/macro declaration, but in VMCore/JavaObject.cpp some lowlevel bitmanipulation is used, to mark

Hi Zsombor, Thanks for the patch! Unfortunately I can't apply it because the llvm API has moved from BinaryOperator::create to BinaryOperator::Create. Are you using svn head? Now on the x86_64 part. There has been very little work on porting vmkit on x86_64. If you're having compilation problems, I suppose it's in the garbage collector directory (GCMmap2). If you could make the

Hi all, I was wondering if there's any way to pass command line arguments to LLVM optimization passes when run through the opt tool. For example, suppose I register called MyPass, then I want to run opt -load libMyPass.so -MyPass 3 < input.bc and have "3" be available to MyPass as a kind of argv argumnet through some method. Or does it take a major rewrite of the opt tool

Thanks, but I'm not sure I understand. I see no such flag in clang 2.9 nor couldn't I find any mention of it. What does it do?

Is there a similar mechanism anywhere for clang?

Hi all, I've been subscribed to this list on-and-off and always found it very helpful. I'm facing the problem of compiling a project in Objective C with LLVM in a Darwin environment. There is a certain Objective C protocol that appears in two .m files, and so the corresponding l_OBJC_PROTOCOL and l_OBJC_LABEL_PROTOCOL symbols appear in both .o files. The problem is that while these

A follow-up question: Is there a way to make different passes accept one command line option that will affect all of them? For example, I'd like to have a -optStrength parameter, that can be given to all of my passes simultaneously.

Hi all, A few different though somewhat related questions here. I'm really grateful for your answers! 1. From a previous question I know that sizeof's are resolved into literals early in the front-end before IR is even emitted. It seems that they are resolved into whatever value is correct for the host machine. But if one wishes to then take the IR and emit assembly code for some other

Hi all, I'm trying to figure out a problem with relocation types 1 and 8 (as observed using otool -r on ARM/Thumb object files). Earlier, when I used LLVM 2.8 with llc to generate thumb (-march=thumb -mattr=+thumb2) assembly listings, then assemble those using the gcc of iPhone 4.2 SDK, there wasn't any problem. However starting with LLVM 2.9, the same toolchain emits slightly different

Hi Harel, Several existing passes can take command line arguments. Have a look at lib/Transforms/Scalar/LoopUnrollPass.cpp for example. Its command line arguments are defined using the cl::opt objects.

Hi all, I'm fiddling around a bit with programmatically created GEP instructions, which is failing when using i64 for any indix, except the first. The reason behind this, is that StructureType::indexValid only accepts Value* that are constant ints of width 32. I can't really see why this limitation is here. SequentialType solves this slightly differently, it allows for both 32 and 64

Hi all, When using "make check" with the DejaGNU test collection, I encounter two unexpected failures (they seem to be closely related). My question: are they well known, and if so what's the problem and how can I fix it? This is the error text I get: FAIL: /var/data/common/trunk/llvm/test/FrontendC/2008-05-19-AlwaysInline.c Failed with exit(1) at line 1 while running:

Now I have an address that present in a unsigned long address like the following format: Value* addr = CONST(0xc0008000) But I do not know how to read the data from the above addr varaible. I tried the following three kind of code: 1. Code: Value* addr = CONST(0xc0008000); Value* data = new LoadInst(addr, "", false, bb); Error: Segmentation fault 2. Code(

Hi all, This is a problem that occurs for me only on Darwin (MacOS) and not on Linux. When llvm 2.8 (or 2.9) is compiled with ENABLE_OPTIMIZED=1, the "opt" tool fails to load LLVM passes in dynamic libraries (.dylib) files, regardless of how they themselves were built. When opt is built with ENABLE_OPTIMIZED=0, all is well. Here is some informative output. Seems to me the problem is

Hi, I have a Type * which may come from an IntegerType as shown below: Type.getIntegerBitWidth() tells me numBits. But how to extract the IntegerType.getSignBit? If pType isIntegerType, I need to know if it is signed or unsigned... How to achieve this? Thx Alex llvm::Type * getRandomValid_IntegerType(llvm::LLVMContext &C) { using namespace llvm; //--- determine num of bits

You could make the cl:opt object visible outside one of your passes, and use it in your other passes : in other words, it is a global variable shared between several files.

Hi all, I just found that TargetData also contains a similar assert, and that I forgot a "return" in my previous patch. Here's an updated patch, which allows to use any integer to index a CompositeType. It seems this enables GEP to work with any integer value as well, I tested indexing a struct with a i16 an i64 (also through llc). This should still be adressed somewhere, unless we
