similar to: [RFC] Let's add a CONTRIBUTING.md file to llvm-project

Hello all, I am a grad student looking to get my hands wet contributing to LLVM. I have done an undergrad course in Compilers. I have some knowledge of parsers, code generation, optimization, IR and other topics taught in an undergrad course. I have worked through quite a bit of the dragon book. Is there a guide to get newbie devs up to speed on the process of contributing? Do I just build the

Hi, I'm in the process of adding support for Markdown to a minimal CMS in Rails, [Railfrog][railfrog], which uses mime types to select appropriate processing. I have had a look through the archives but have not been able to see that a consensus has emerged as to what such a mime type for Markdown should look like. My reading of the RFCs suggests that it should be within the "text/*"

In an effort to streamline and consolidate how code gets submitted to puppet, we''ve updated the contributing guidelines. The changes were along three fronts: 1. Clarify what to target when submitting patches. 2. Reflect the reality that we take code submissions as github pull requests. 3. Simplify the explanation for how to get up and running as a contributor. We are also in discussions

Hi, it seems like http://llvm.org/docs/ stopped updating around 2018-01-03 (the footer at http://llvm.org/docs/ says `Last updated on 2018-01-03`). I've committed a new page [1], on the 4th but it does not show up yet. I could not find any public logs of the doc-builder. It would be great it someone could have a look. Cheers, Florian [1]

Hi all. I'm assuming most people reading this email are familiar with LLVM's code review process <http://llvm.org/docs/DeveloperPolicy.html#code-reviews> as well as LLVM Weekly, the development newsletter I've written and sent out every Monday since Jan 2014. Since that time, it's provided something of a "signal boost" for important mailing list discussions and

Hello all, We would like to contribute a new backend for Qualcomm's Hexagon processor. We will actively maintain the port once it is accepted. Hexagon is a VLIW core that is used principally in modem and low power audio applications in Qualcomm's chip sets. We have a patch for both llvm and for clang. As this is a new port, these patches are quite large (approximately 26k and 3k

Hi LLVM and CLang Devs, At the moment my company (Movidius) is considering contributing the changes we have made to LLVM and CLang in order to support our proprietary processor, and I would like to seek advice on how best to approach doing this? I am pretty sure that there are coding guidelines and conventions that we should be following but have not followed over the course of the last few

I'd rather we decided on whether to accept GitHub PRs or not first (in the other thread). I would bet that everyone who has troubles with arc / is not allowed to use arc would happily use GitHub PRs instead. Worst case scenario if the community decides that we don't want to accept GitHub PRs then this sort of script would be a useful time sink. Cheers, -Neil. On Tue, Jan 21, 2020 at

Hi, One takeaway for me from the recent Phabricator vs Github PR discussions was that arc (arcanist) can be a pain to set up and may pose a hurdle for some contributors. I think those points could be addressed relatively easily by adding a llvm-patch script (or an even better name) that allows users to create and apply patches from reviews.llvm.org using Phabricators API. In my experience, the

Hello all, GSOC is around the corner, and the LLVM projects plans to participate again this year. For those who don’t know about GSOC, students are proposing a project that they will work on for 3 months. Amongst other, one goal for LLVM is to mentor students to become good developers and also contributors to the LLVM project (or user/advocate of LLVM for building other cool projects). A key

I hit upon docs/SystemLibrary.rst today. Is this documentation useful to anyone? Can I delete it? Most of the guidelines seem like common sense: Keeping LLVM Portable, High Level Interface, No Unused Functionality, No Duplicate Implementations, etc. Some are not really true, like "Minimize Soft Errors". We currently propagate a lot of file-related soft errors up as

There’s also some feature regressions in GH vs Phab. You *must* initiate a review via a pull request, and pull request by definition compares your working copy against master. This is not very compatible with LLVMs approach to incremental development. For example, if you ask someone to break a large patch into 5 smaller patches, with Phab this is very easy because you can upload the diff

Sir, I am Adit Mehta first year student of DA-IICT. I know C/C++, python, ruby, PHP. I am new to llvm. I am interested in contributing to llvm. Can you guide me from where should I start?
