similar to: [LLVMdev] Need guidance regarding MachineFunctionPass

Respected Dr. Criswell, My problem is that the output of following code looks nothing like any opcode: *for(MachineBasicBlock::iterator I = BB->begin(); I != BB->end(); ) { MachineInstr *mi = I; int op = mi->getOpcode(); std::cout << op << '\t'; }* I need to identify specific instructions in my MachineFunctionPass and I was hoping that I can

Thank you Mr. Tim. I was wondering if you can tell me in which file 'get()' is defined. I am having trouble using this function. For example if I write 'get(AArch64::LDRXui)' then there is an error generated which says: use of undeclared identifier 'get'. Thanks again !!

Hello all, I need to modify llvm bytecode / native code just before it is emitted i.e. after all the regular operations and optimizations are done. I was told that this can be achieved by implementing a MachineFunctionPass. I searched the internet for some tutorials or some example MachineFunctionPass but found nothing. Kindly point some links, or anything that may help. Thank you. Regards,

Thank you Mr. Tim. Is "AArch64" a namespace? Because when I tried "X86::MOV", it gave me an error saying that first define X86 namespace. Sorry if I sound stupid but I am new to LLVM. Thank you again. On Thu, Oct 2, 2014 at 8:16 PM, Tim Northover <t.p.northover at gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Sachin, > > > int op = mi->getOpcode(); > > This is

Hello all, I am new to llvm. I need to make some changes to the LR. The backend should modify the LR, but only after all the normal work and all the optimizations are done. Just before outputting the native code, LR is modified. I was wondering if I should implement the whole backend in order to achieve this or is it possible to implement a new pass and use that. Thanks ! Regards, Sachin

Hello, I have built llvm with some added Machine Function Passes and I am trying to use it to build the SPEC CPU2006 benchmarks. I am using llvm test-suite to build the benchmarks. I configured the test-suite with "--with-f2c" but still none of the fortran benchmarks are built or compiled. I tried running simple and nightly tests. Kindly let me know if I am missing some steps and if not

Deer All, I wanted to write MachineFunctionPass which needs to be run after global register allocation pass. I have read LLVM documentation and blogs and able to write simple pass which will is invoked through opt command line. However, I could able to find any blogs or document to explains clear steps for writing MachineFunctionPass. Please suggest some documents or blogs which will help me

Hello everyone, I have written simple LLVM passes, but I cannot able to write a MachineFunctionPass pass. I am following the steps form the following link but it is not working: http://www.gabriel.urdhr.fr/2014/09/26/adding-a-llvm-pass/ Please share the sample MachineFunctionPass code or steps to follow to write MachineFunctionPass. Thanks, Bala -- Thanks, Bala IIITA Allahabad --------------

Hello, I want to add a global variable of arrayType in my MachineFunctionPass. However, I only get const Module from MachineFunction.getMMI().getModule(). I can't add any global variable to a const Module. Another way is to add a global variable in doInitialization in my MachineFunctionPass, but I can't determine the size of my arrayType for global variable in doInitialization. Is there

Hello everyone, I have written several complex passes till now, but I cannot write a MachineFunctionPass pass. It just gives me segfault. Hence I reduced the pass to the following form : using namespace llvm; namespace { class CFGexplorator : public MachineFunctionPass { public: static char ID; // Pass identification, replacement for typeid CFGexplorator() : MachineFunctionPass(ID)

Antony, What are you trying to accomplish in this case? I did something very similar in the AMDIL backend, but it was not the cleanest solution and you are correct it has to be do at doInitialization stage and not at runOnMachineFunction.

I found that : "Code generator passes are registered and initialized specially by TargetMachine::addPassesToEmitFile and similar routines, so they cannot generally be run from the *opt* or *bugpoint* commands."...So how I can run a MachineFunctionPass? In the end, I just want to apply a DFS on a CFG of a function. And I need oriented edges and wanted to use

First you should learn how to write a pass and then a MachineFunctionPass. >From LLVM website, you can refer to http://llvm.org/docs/WritingAnLLVMPass.html And for outside pass, you can refer to http://adriansampson.net/blog/llvm.html It's a great article. And the author put the source code on Github <https://github.com/sampsyo/llvm-pass-skeleton>. 2016-03-01 14:36 GMT+08:00

If you're running a MachineFunctionPass, then the code has already been lowered to machine instructions and modifying the original IR will most likely not do what you want. You should only be using the IR as an immutable object for reference. If you want to change the IR, I would suggest using a FunctionPass instead of a MachineFunctionPass. Unless you need codegen data. At the

Can you tell us a bit more about what you're trying to accomplish? Changes to the IR performed during MachineFunctionPass::doInitialization will likely propagate down through code generation, but at that point what is the purpose of using a MachineFunctionPass? You won't have any analysis or instruction information available until runOnMachineFunction. On Mon, Aug 5, 2013 at 12:00 PM,

Hi all, I can't find a way to add a MachineFunctionPass to the common codegen passes (LLVMTargetMachine::addPassesToEmitMachineCode) while JITting (the pass manager is associated with the jitstate of the JIT and I can't access it because it's private). Have I missed something? Or adding a MachineFunctionPass to codegen requires to change the

Micah, As you expected, I am trying to create local memory but in the NVPTX backend. It's really not convenient that I can't create local memory in runOnMachineFunction. Hmm.... Since I should do it at doInitialization stage, I also need to do some tricks in global variable and AsmPrinter to resize it. Did you use the similar way? Antony 2013/8/5 Micah Villmow <micah.villmow at

Yes, global variables are the only way to access shared memory. I'm just trying to get an idea of what you're aiming to accomplish to see if we can improve on the interface here. A MachineFunctionPass runs after instruction selection and relying on doInitialization to run before instruction selection is an implementation detail that I do not believe is guaranteed anywhere (I could be

Micah, Thanks for your help. I will study on that code. Justin, Sorry for my misleading word. Local memory in OpenCL is the same as share memory in CUDA. What I mean is share memory, so MachineFrameInfo is not suitable to me. And I need codegen data, so FunctionPass is also not suitable. Anyway, thanks for the suggestion.

Hi, I would like to execute a MachineFunctionPass after all other passes which modify the machine code. In other words, if we call llc to generate assembly file, that pass should run right before the "Assembly Printer" pass. Is there any official way to enforce this ? Best regards, Sebastien
