Hello, my name is Axel Reimer and I am new to this mailing list. I subscribed because I was just thinking about how hard it would be to implement a flac-decoder in VHDL (in order to use it on a Xilinx-FPGA). Since I am working at a University in Germany I was thinking of offering this project for students. What do you think. How much time would you suggest for such an implementation (if only

Hello Axel, I'm an undergraduate student who has been working on a student project implementing a project like this for our Fourth Year Design Symposium (http://eceprojects.uwaterloo.ca ). Our VHDL decoder is targeting an Altera FPGA (Cyclone II), however I think that much of this would hold for your students project as well. The project took significantly longer to complete than we

The only VHDL to LLVM project that I know of is nvc. [0] I haven't tried it personally and from a cursory look through the source it seems like there is a LLVM backend and a "native" backend (not sure what that means). If you're really crazy you might want to see if you could massage GHDL [1] (VHDL GCC frontend) + DragonEgg [2] (LLVM backend for GCC) to get you LLVM IR. I'm

Thanks for your answers. In one year, I am going to have something like a semester project. The idea I have for this project would be to create (for simulation only) a VHDL front-end to LLVM, compile some VHDL code with the newly created compilator and also with a commercial compilator and simulator and compare the performance of both simulations. I won't have the time to do a full VHDL

Hi, I am wondering if someone knows about a VHDL simulator (maybe still in early developpement) that use LLVM in its compilation process. To summarize, VHDL is a hardware description language, which means that VHDL is like any other programming language except that the output of its synthesis is not a list of assembly instructions but a description of a circuit with logical gates. This

Hi Pavel, > If you are interested in HDLs perhaps you would be interested in Vlang? > I am currently working on Verilog fronted and I am looking for somebody with > VHDL interest to join the Vlang project. I have never heard about the Vlang project but it seems to be an interesting project. I think I could be interested to join this project and do the VHDL front-end. However, there are

I'm currently looking to start my working on my major project for College. I want to create an audio CD archival/ playback server. There will be a base server and also several satellite players. I will be building a secondary server for my car. And in the car power is at a premium so I wanted true hardware support (unlike phatnoise which is software based). The car will support both

I don't have a solution for you, but when you found one or start the project on your own, let me know. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/attachments/20111002/f54dd8de/attachment.html>

I'd like to announce the first public demo of a hardware FLAC decoder that I and three of my colleagues have been working on over the past 8 months. This project has been developed as part of the University of Waterloo's Fourth Year Design Project requirement for undergrad students in Electrical & Computer Engineering. Our decoder has been implemented in VHDL and is currently

Seth, Thank you for your reply. I'm sorry to bother with this, but what is the "root pivot" function and where can I find doc's on it. From what I understand from your email the system would basically boot twice. Once from a stripped kernel on the floppy disk to mount the CD, and then after the CD is mounted it would reboot with the kernel and initial randisk found on the

Today a user asked me whether a file on one host can be different on another host. I was busy composing an answer to tell that the /home space on all clients are mounted using NFS from the file server. Any host will therefor see the same file. The user pointed me to his file and I copied this file from the client and compared this with the file on the file server. To my surprise it turned out

Hi, I suspect a CPU bottleneck in one of our PostgreSQL servers but not sure how to confirm the suspect. It's a DELL Box running CentOS 5.4 with 64GB RAM and 16 XEON E7430 2.13 GHz processors. vmstat r column "run queue" usually indicates values higher than 2 and less than 5 but "Load Average" values from top, sar -q and other commands show always values less than 1.

I'm trying to post a script on the wikki but it keeps screwing up the text because it interprets the text as commands that cause graphical errors.

A simulator should be expecting the machine opcodes not macros. LD shouldn't care at all as long as the object format plays well. I would think it would be better to fix the simulator.

Hello, I previously sent this message, but it was in HTML only, so it was unreadable. I am thinking about making a compiler for a new HDL language, that will be more modern than VHDL and Verilog and allow a little higher level behavioral description than VHDL. For this language, I am beeing influenced by VHDL, Ada, Ruby and MyHDL. I also would like to write it in Ada. I don't know if it

Hi all, the CallGraph pass is only available in opt. Is there any substantial reason for that? Or is it only because it seems not to be useful for llc? I want to use it in an backend that is derived from the CBackend. I need the information what functions are called in every other function to build communication struktures between the functions. The backend is generating VHDL from C code.

Hey all, this is a pretty simple question but I can''t seem to find anything on the wikki or google... Is there a Ruby/Rails equivilent to PHP''s nl2br function? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
