similar to: [LLVMdev] How can I output assembly comments from emitPrologue()?

So, an update. I have managed to generate comments, although it does create a non-existent instruction. My method is as follows (and I would appreciate any comments on how to do it "better", although note that this won't make it into the final code :).) 1. I declared a "fake" instruction type to hold comments, ala: class FakeInst<dag outs, dag ins, string asmstr,

Yeh, I eventually figured that out. Thanks for responding though.

Hello, Thank you very much for the pointers. I am are able to create new MDNodes, filled with some constants, and attach them to llvm instructions. However, the metadata map is not getting updated as expected. For example, instead of the expected new entry !n = metadata !{some values} we are getting !n = metadata !{null} Do you know what might be wrong? Do we need to enter the MDNodes into the

I'm attempting to add an error handler to functions with a custom calling convention. This error is checked upon function entry, before any code is run (specifically, I cannot allow any stack operations). Because of this, I figured a good place to do this code insertion is in EmitPrologue. I also, at this time, create the block that handles the error case. // create a new block for

>>> Here is another version of the patch. This one includes also a small patch to llvm-gcc so that it generates the type metadata for structures and classes. This one also generates and parses correctly the metadata for .ll files. No .bc support yet. The biggest problem with this version is that it breaks when the compiler/linker performs type reductions, and I don't understand

Hello, I propose a new syntax for metadata strings (MDStrings) which would allow string data to be spread over multiple lines: !0 = metadata !{metadata !""" hello world """} The special three-quote sequence marks the beginning and end of a multi-line string. This syntax could have a variety of uses, but of particular interest is that it could be used as a basis

Not to distract, but the word, `procedurization' is not an English word. It's just leaping out at me when it is either procedure(s) (noun) or proceduralize (verb). Even processes would make sense. I couldn't help myself because the word was distracting. - Marc P.S. Not that my vote counts, but I'm more in the camp of Hal whose approach to tackling the parallelization

In LLVM IR metadata is used to attach auxiliary information with various IR constructs. Currently metadata information is represented using MDNode and MDString. The metadata can refer to LLVM values but these references are not counted as regular "uses" of these values because metadata is maintained 'on the side'. This ensures that the optimizer is not influenced by auxiliary

Hello, I am editing the LowerTypeTests pass in LLVM, and part of my additions include the following 3 lines of code: // newTypeName is a std::string MDString* newMD = MDString::get(M.getContext(), newTypeName); ArrayRef<Metadata*> mdArray {ConstantInt::get(Int64Ty, 0), newMD}; auto* node = MDTuple::get(M.getContext(), mdArray); Thus far, I have been developing on a version of Clang with

Hi, I hope I'm not too annoying with my newbie questions. I've read the new (great!) wiki about the DI* classes, and I still can't figure out how to insert metadata into the LLVM IR. Let's say that I want to have two passes, one that creates some metadata string and inserts it into the IR, and the second one that reads it and acts according to what it finds (or doesn't find).

Hi All, We'd like to make a proposal for OpenMP representation in LLVM IR. Our goal is to reach an agreement in the community on a simple, complete and extensible representation of OpenMP language constructs in LLVM IR. Hopefully, this would serve as a common ground and would enable further development of OpenMP support both in Clang and LLVM compiler toolchain. We seek feedback on the

I think it'd be reasonable to at least figure out a good way to do type references consistently across the two schemes, but I'm OK with the idea of having a blob of opaque type information for different debug info formats, created by frontends (& don't mind if the library for building that blob live in LLVM or Clang for now - the DWARF one at least would probably live in LLVM

I think the better solution should be: LLVMContext& C = is->getContext(); Value *values[] = { ConstantInt::getSigned(Type::getInt64Ty(C), *scsr*), MDString::get(C, *"path"*) }; lnstr.setMetadata(*"your_analysis_name"*, MDNode::get(C, values)); So that you can take advantage of the type system of LLVM bitcode, and don't have to cast the integers from/to strings

I agree that the ArrayRef is likely the issue. I've debugged a crash caused by a temporary ArrayRef like that a couple times. Either do what David suggested or use a normal array: Metadata *mdArray[] = {ConstantInt::get(Int64Ty, 0), newMD}; ~Craig On Thu, Apr 30, 2020 at 9:56 AM David Blaikie via llvm-dev < llvm-dev at lists.llvm.org> wrote: > > > On Thu, Apr 30, 2020 at

Hi All, Type uniquing for C++ is in. Some data for Xalan with -flto -g: 9.9MB raw dwarf size, peak memory usage at 2.8GB The raw dwarf size was 58MB, memory usage was 7GB back in May, 2013. Other efforts at size reduction helped, and type uniquing improved on top of those. Data on building clang with "-flto -g" after type uniquing: 3.4GB MDNodes after parsing all bc files, 7GB
