Zusammenfassung: | Chapter 5: The LLVM Intermediate Representation; Overview; Understanding the LLVM IR target dependency; Exercising basic tools to manipulate the IR formats; Introducing the LLVM IR language syntax; Introducing the LLVM IR in-memory model; Writing a custom LLVM IR generator; Building and running the IR generator; Learning how to write code to generate any IR construct with the C++ backend; Optimizing at the IR level; Compile-time and link-time optimizations; Discovering which passes matter; Understanding pass dependencies; Understanding the pass API; Writing a custom pass. This book is intended for enthusiasts, computer science students, and compiler engineers interested in learning about the LLVM framework. You need a background in C++ and, although not mandatory, should know at least some compiler theory. Whether you are a newcomer or a compiler expert, this book provides a practical introduction to LLVM and avoids complex scenarios. If you are interested enough and excited about this technology, then this book is definitely for you. |
