(Sorry about the wall of text, it ended up as a brain dump of a bunch of backend-related documentation that I know about/have bookmarked in the past. Hopefully there's something useful in there.) If you haven't stumbled across them already, these might be helpful: http://llvm.org/devmtg/2009-10/Korobeynikov_BackendTutorial.pdf http://jonathan2251.github.io/lbd/

When I registered for dev conference, there was a field asking what I was particularly interested in learning. I didn't fill it out then , but it occurs to me now that I'd really enjoy a tutorial on how to develop a new back end. I spent some time recently reviewing existing material (documentation and code) and not making a lot of progress. Indeed, under some time pressure, I'm

I've been experimenting with building various llvm variants on mac OS X. Ususally, it's a case of cloning, running cmake with Xcode as generator and loading the resulting xcodeproj. In trying to build the skeleton openrisc backend from https://github.com/asl/llvm-openrisc as described in "building a backend in 24 hours" at

On Page 56 it says: Maybe it’s a good idea to add ‘stub’ backend to the tree Are there any plans to this? I'd like to see a 'stub' backend in the llvm-tree (or somewhere else). -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment
