Moderators needed for LLVM Developers' Meeting
All,
I'm needing volunteers to help moderate the sessions of the LLVM Developers' Meeting. All you need to do is introduce the speaker, make sure the speaker stays on time, and run Q&A at the end (run a microphone, select people, etc). Its a pretty easy job, but critical for our meeting to run smoothly.
If you are interested in moderating, please send me your top 2 session choices.

[RFC] Propeller: A frame work for Post Link Optimizations
I'm a bit confused by this subthread -- doesn't BOLT have the exact same
CFI bloat issue? From my cursory reading of the propellor doc, the CFI
duplication is _necessary_ to represent discontiguous functions, not
anything particular to the way Propellor happens to generate those
discontiguous functions.
And emitting discontiguous functions is a fundamental goal of this, right?

[LLVMdev] Any way get debug output of generated assembly from MCJIT without completely redoing CodeGen?
Yeah, that's probably how I'd do it.
Might be useful if you guys want to contribute that as a command line
option Kevin.

[RFC] Propeller: A frame work for Post Link Optimizations
Is there large value from deferring the block ordering to link time? That
is, does the block layout algorithm need to consider global layout issues
when deciding which blocks to put together and which to relegate to the
far-away part of the code?
Or, could the propellor-optimized compile step instead split each function
into only 2 pieces -- one containing an "optimally-ordered" set of

We would also like to clarify on the misconceptions around CFI Instructions:
There are two things that need to be clarified here:
1) Extra CFI FDE entries for basic blocks does not mean more dynamic
instructions are executed. In fact, they do not increase at all. Krys
talked about this earlier.
2) We do deduplication of common static CFI instructions in the FDE
and move it to the CIE . Hence,

Hello,
I wanted to consolidate all the discussions and our final thoughts on the
concerns raised. I have attached a document consolidating it.
BOLT’s performance gains inspired this work and we believe BOLT
is a great piece of engineering. However, there are build environments
where
scalability is critical and memory limits per process are tight :

Some more information about the relaxation pass whose effectiveness
and convergence guarantees were listed as a concern:
TLDR; Our relaxation pass is similar to what LLVM’s MCAssembler does
but with a caveat for efficiency. Our experimental results show it is
efficient and convergence is guaranteed.
Our relaxation pass is very similar to what MCAssembler does as it
needs to solve the same

Don''t Shout at your JBODs

I wonder if the inverse is true. If I whisper soothing
words of encouragement at my JBODs, will I get
more IOPS with reduced latency?

[LLVMdev] Odd code layout requirements for MCJIT
I'm part of a team working on adding an llvm codegen backend to HHVM
(PHP JIT, http://hhvm.com) using MCJIT. We have a code layout problem
and I'm looking for opinions on good ways to solve it.
The short version is that the memory we emit code into is split into a
few different areas, and we'd like a way to control which area each
BasicBlock ends up in during codegen. I know this

[RFC] Moving (parts of) the Cling REPL in Clang
Motivation
===
Over the last decade we have developed an interactive, interpretative
C++ (aka REPL) as part of the high-energy physics (HEP) data analysis
project -- ROOT [1-2]. We invested a significant effort to replace the
CINT C++ interpreter with a newly implemented REPL based on llvm --
cling [3]. The cling infrastructure is a core component of the data
analysis framework of ROOT and

I like cling, and having it integrated with the rest of the project would be neat. I agree with Hal’s suggestion to explain the design of what remains. It sounds like a pretty small amount of code.
