+<p>In the LLVM 2.9 time-frame, the Clang team has made many improvements:</p>
<ul>
-
-<li>C++ Support: Clang is now capable of self-hosting! While still alpha-quality, Clang's C++ support has matured enough to build LLVM and Clang, and C++ is now enabled by default. See the <a href="http://clang.llvm.org/cxx_compatibility.html">Clang C++ compatibility page</a> for common C++ migration issues.</li>
-
-<li>Objective-C: Clang now includes experimental support for an updated Objective-C ABI on non-Darwin platforms. This includes support for non-fragile instance variables and accelerated proxies, as well as greater potential for future optimisations. The new ABI is used when compiling with the -fobjc-nonfragile-abi and -fgnu-runtime options. Code compiled with these options may be mixed with code compiled with GCC or clang using the old GNU ABI, but requires the libobjc2 runtime from the GNUstep project.</li>
-
-<li>New warnings: Clang contains a number of new warnings, including control-flow warnings (unreachable code, missing return statements in a non-<code>void</code> function, etc.), sign-comparison warnings, and improved format-string warnings.</li>
-
-<li>CIndex API and Python bindings: Clang now includes a C API as part of the
-CIndex library. Although we may make some changes to the API in the future, it
-is intended to be stable and has been designed for use by external projects. See
-the Clang

<div class="doc_text">
-<p>LLVM 2.7 includes several major new capabilities:</p>
+<p>LLVM 2.9 includes several major new capabilities:</p>
<ul>
-<li>2.7 includes initial support for the <a
- href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MicroBlaze">MicroBlaze</a> target.
- MicroBlaze is a soft processor core designed for Xilinx FPGAs.</li>
-
-<li>2.7 includes a new LLVM IR "extensible metadata" feature. This feature
- supports many different use cases, including allowing front-end authors to
- encode source level information into LLVM IR, which is consumed by later
- language-specific passes. This is a great way to do high-level optimizations
- like devirtualization, type-based alias analysis, etc. See the <a
- href="http://blog.llvm.org/2010/04/extensible-metadata-in-llvm-ir.html">
- Extensible Metadata Blog Post</a> for more information.</li>
-
-<li>2.7 encodes <a href="SourceLevelDebugging.html">debug information</a>
-in a completely new way, built on extensible metadata. The new implementation
-is much more memory efficient and paves the way for improvements to optimized
-code debugging experience.</li>
-
-<li>2.7 now directly supports taking the address of a label and doing an
- indirect branch through a pointer. This is particularly useful for
- interpreter loops, and is used to implement the GCC "address of label"
- extension. For more information, see the <a
-href="http://blog.llvm.org/2010/01/address-of-label-and-indirect-branches.html">
-Address of Label and Indirect Branches in LLVM IR Blog Post</a>.
-
-<li>2.7 is the first release to start supporting APIs for assembling and
- disassembling target machine code. These APIs are useful for a variety of
- low level clients, and are surfaced in the new "enhanced disassembly" API.
- For more information see the <a
- href="http://blog.llvm.org/2010/01/x86-disassembler.html">The X86
- Disassembler Blog Post</a> for more information.</li>
-
-<li>2.7 includes major parts of the work required by the new MC Project,
- see the <a href="#mc">MC update above</a> for more information.</li>
-
</ul>
</div>
expose new optimization opportunities:</p>
<ul>
-<li>LLVM IR now supports a 16-bit "half float" data type through <a
- href="LangRef.html#int_fp16">two new intrinsics</a> and APFloat support.</li>
-<li>LLVM IR supports two new <a href="LangRef.html#fnattrs">function
- attributes</a>: inlinehint and alignstack(n). The former is a hint to the
- optimizer that a function was declared 'inline' and thus the inliner should
- weight it higher when considering inlining it. The later
- indicates to the code generator that the function diverges from the platform
- ABI on stack alignment.</li>
-<li>The new <a href="LangRef.html#int_objectsize">llvm.objectsize</a> intrinsic
- allows the optimizer to infer the sizes of memory objects in some cases.
- This intrinsic is used to implement the GCC <tt>__builtin_object_size</tt>
- extension.</li>
-<li>LLVM IR now supports marking load and store instructions with <a
- href="LangRef.html#i_load">"non-temporal" hints</a> (building on the new
- metadata feature). This hint encourages the code
- generator to generate non-temporal accesses when possible, which are useful
- for code that is carefully managing cache behavior. Currently, only the
- X86 backend provides target support for this feature.</li>
-
-<li>LLVM 2.7 has pre-alpha support for <a
- href="LangRef.html#t_union">unions in LLVM IR</a>.
- Unfortunately, this support is not really usable in 2.7, so if you're
- interested in pushing it forward, please help contribute to LLVM mainline.</li>
-
</ul>
</div>
release includes a few major enhancements and additions to the optimizers:</p>
<ul>
-
-<li>The inliner reuses now merges arrays stack objects in different callees when
- inlining multiple call sites into one function. This reduces the stack size
- of the resultant function.</li>
-<li>The -basicaa alias analysis pass (which is the default) has been improved to
- be less dependent on "type safe" pointers. It can now look through bitcasts

- optimization.</li>
-<li>The load elimination optimization in the GVN Pass [<a
-href="http://blog.llvm.org/2009/12/introduction-to-load-elimination-in-gvn.html">intro
- blog post</a>] has been substantially improved to be more aggressive about
- partial redundancy elimination and do more aggressive phi translation. Please
- see the <a

- Advanced Topics in Redundant Load Elimination with a Focus on PHI Translation
- Blog Post</a> for more details.</li>
-<li>The module <a href="LangRef.html#datalayout">target data string</a> now
- includes a notion of 'native' integer data types for the target. This
- helps mid-level optimizations avoid promoting complex sequences of
- operations to data types that are not natively supported (e.g. converting
- i32 operations to i64 on 32-bit chips).</li>
-<li>The mid-level optimizer is now conservative when operating on a module with
- no target data. Previously, it would default to SparcV9 settings, which is
- not what most people expected.</li>
-<li>Jump threading is now much more aggressive at simplifying correlated
- conditionals and threading blocks with otherwise complex logic. It has
- subsumed the old "Conditional Propagation" pass, and -condprop has been
- removed from LLVM 2.7.</li>
-<li>The -instcombine pass has been refactored from being one huge file to being
- a library of its own. Internally, it uses a customized IRBuilder to clean
- it up and simplify it.</li>
-
-<li>The optimal edge profiling pass is reliable and much more complete than in
- 2.6. It can be used with the llvm-prof tool but isn't wired up to the
- llvm-gcc and clang command line options yet.</li>
-
-<li>A new experimental alias analysis implementation, -scev-aa, has been added.
- It uses LLVM's Scalar Evolution implementation to do symbolic analysis of
- pointer offset expressions to disambiguate pointers. It can catch a few
- cases that basicaa cannot, particularly in complex loop nests.</li>
-
-<li>The default pass ordering has been tweaked for improved optimization
- effectiveness.</li>
-
+ <li>TBAA.</li>
+ <li>LTO has been improved to use MC for parsing inline asm and now
+ can build large programs like Firefox 4 on both OS X and Linux.</li>

+<p>
+The LLVM Machine Code (aka MC) subsystem was created to solve a number
+of problems in the realm of assembly, disassembly, object file format handling,
+and a number of other related areas that CPU instruction-set level tools work
+in.</p>
<ul>
-<li>The JIT now supports generating debug information and is compatible with
-the new GDB 7.0 (and later) interfaces for registering dynamically generated
-debug info.</li>
-
-<li>The JIT now <a href="http://llvm.org/PR5184">defaults
-to compiling eagerly</a> to avoid a race condition in the lazy JIT.
-Clients that still want the lazy JIT can switch it on by calling
-<tt>ExecutionEngine::DisableLazyCompilation(false)</tt>.</li>
+ <li>MC is now used by default for ELF systems on x86 and
+ x86-64.</li>
+ <li>MC supports and CodeGen uses the <tt>.loc</tt> directives for
+ producing line number debug info. This produces more compact line
+ tables.</li>
+ <li>MC supports the <tt>.cfi_*</tt> directives for producing DWARF
+ frame information, but it is still not used by CodeGen by default.</li>
+ <li>COFF support?</li>
+</ul>
-<li>It is now possible to create more than one JIT instance in the same process.
-These JITs can generate machine code in parallel,

it run faster:</p>
<ul>
-<li>The 'llc -asm-verbose' option (which is now the default) has been enhanced
- to emit many useful comments to .s files indicating information about spill
- slots and loop nest structure. This should make it much easier to read and
- understand assembly files. This is wired up in llvm-gcc and clang to
- the <tt>-fverbose-asm</tt> option.</li>
-
-<li>New LSR with "full strength reduction" mode, which can reduce address
- register pressure in loops where address generation is important.</li>
-
-<li>A new codegen level Common Subexpression Elimination pass (MachineCSE)
- is available and enabled by default. It catches redundancies exposed by
- lowering.</li>
-<li>A new pre-register-allocation tail duplication pass is available and enabled
- by default, it can substantially improve branch prediction quality in some
- cases.</li>
-<li>A new sign and zero extension optimization pass (OptimizeExtsPass)
- is available and enabled by default. This pass can takes advantage
- architecture features like x86-64 implicit zero extension behavior and
- sub-registers.</li>
-<li>The code generator now supports a mode where it attempts to preserve the
- order of instructions in the input code. This is important for source that
- is hand scheduled and extremely sensitive to scheduling. It is compatible
- with the GCC <tt>-fno-schedule-insns</tt> option.</li>
-<li>The target-independent code generator now supports generating code with
- arbitrary numbers of result values. Returning more values than was
- previously supported is handled by returning through a hidden pointer. In
- 2.7, only the X86 and XCore targets have adopted support for this
- though.</li>
-<li>The code generator now supports generating code that follows the
- <a href="LangRef.html#callingconv">Glasgow Haskell Compiler Calling
- Convention</a> and ABI.</li>
-<li>The "<a href="CodeGenerator.html#selectiondag_select">DAG instruction
- selection</a>" phase of the code generator has been largely rewritten for
- 2.7. Previously, tblgen spit out tons of C++ code which was compiled and
- linked into the target to do the pattern matching, now it emits a much
- smaller table which is read by the target-independent code. The primary
- advantages of this approach is that the size and compile time of various
- targets is much improved. The X86 code generator shrunk by 1.5MB of code,
- for example.</li>
-<li>Almost the entire code generator has switched to emitting code through the
- MC interfaces instead of printing textually to the .s file. This led to a
- number of cleanups and speedups. In 2.7, debug an exception handling
- information does not go through MC yet.</li>

-<a name="newapis">New Useful APIs</a>
-</div>
-
-<div class="doc_text">
-
-<p>This release includes a number of new APIs that are used internally, which
- may also be useful for external clients.
-</p>
-
-<ul>
-<li>The optimizer uses the new CodeMetrics class to measure the size of code.
- Various passes (like the inliner, loop unswitcher, etc) all use this to make
- more accurate estimates of the code size impact of various
- optimizations.</li>
-<li>A new <a href="http://llvm.org/doxygen/InstructionSimplify_8h-source.html">
- llvm/Analysis/InstructionSimplify.h</a> interface is available for doing
- symbolic simplification of instructions (e.g. <tt>a+0</tt> -> <tt>a</tt>)
- without requiring the instruction to exist. This centralizes a lot of
- ad-hoc symbolic manipulation code scattered in various passes.</li>
-<li>The optimizer now uses a new <a
- href="http://llvm.org/doxygen/SSAUpdater_8h-source.html">SSAUpdater</a>
- class which efficiently supports
- doing unstructured SSA update operations. This centralized a bunch of code
- scattered throughout various passes (e.g. jump threading, lcssa,
- loop rotate, etc) for doing this sort of thing. The code generator has a
- similar <a href="http://llvm.org/doxygen/MachineSSAUpdater_8h-source.html">
- MachineSSAUpdater</a> class.</li>
-<li>The <a href="http://llvm.org/doxygen/Regex_8h-source.html">
- llvm/Support/Regex.h</a> header exposes a platform independent regular
- expression API. Building on this, the <a
- href="TestingGuide.html#FileCheck">FileCheck</a> utility now supports
- regular exressions.</li>
-<li>raw_ostream now supports a circular "debug stream" accessed with "dbgs()".
- By default, this stream works the same way as "errs()", but if you pass
- <tt>-debug-buffer-size=1000</tt> to opt, the debug stream is capped to a
- fixed sized circular buffer and the output is printed at the end of the
- program's execution. This is helpful if you have a long lived compiler
- process and you're interested in seeing snapshots in time.</li>

-<a name="otherimprovements">Other Improvements and New Features</a>
-</div>
-
-<div class="doc_text">
-<p>Other miscellaneous features include:</p>
-
-<ul>
-<li>You can now build LLVM as a big dynamic library (e.g. "libllvm2.7.so"). To
- get this, configure LLVM with the --enable-shared option.</li>
-
-<li>LLVM command line tools now overwrite their output by default. Previously,
- they would only do this with -f. This makes them more convenient to use, and
- behave more like standard unix tools.</li>
-
-<li>The opt and llc tools now autodetect whether their input is a .ll or .bc
- file, and automatically do the right thing. This means you don't need to
- explicitly use the llvm-as tool for most things.</li>

from the previous release.</p>
<ul>
-
-<li>
-The Andersen's alias analysis ("anders-aa") pass, the Predicate Simplifier
-("predsimplify") pass, the LoopVR pass, the GVNPRE pass, and the random sampling
-profiling ("rsprofiling") passes have all been removed. They were not being
-actively maintained and had substantial problems. If you are interested in
-these components, you are welcome to ressurect them from SVN, fix the
-correctness problems, and resubmit them to mainline.</li>
-
-<li>LLVM now defaults to building most libraries with RTTI turned off, providing
-a code size reduction. Packagers who are interested in building LLVM to support
-plugins that require RTTI information should build with "make REQUIRE_RTTI=1"
-and should read the new <a href="Packaging.html">Advice on Packaging LLVM</a>
-document.</li>
-
-<li>The LLVM interpreter now defaults to <em>not</em> using <tt>libffi</tt> even
-if you have it installed. This makes it more likely that an LLVM built on one
-system will work when copied to a similar system. To use <tt>libffi</tt>,
-configure with <tt>--enable-libffi</tt>.</li>
-
-<li>Debug information uses a completely different representation, an LLVM 2.6
-.bc file should work with LLVM 2.7, but debug info won't come forward.</li>
-
-<li>The LLVM 2.6 (and earlier) "malloc" and "free" instructions got removed,
- along with LowerAllocations pass. Now you should just use a call to the
- malloc and free functions in libc. These calls are optimized as well as
- the old instructions were.</li>
</ul>
+
+
<p>In addition, many APIs have changed in this release. Some of the major LLVM
API changes are:</p>
-
<ul>
-<li>Just about everything has been converted to use raw_ostream instead of
- std::ostream.</li>
-<li>llvm/ADT/iterator.h has been removed, just use <iterator>
- instead.</li>
-<li>The Streams.h file and "DOUT" got removed, use "DEBUG(errs() << ...);"
- instead.</li>
-<li>The TargetAsmInfo interface was renamed to MCAsmInfo.</li>
-<li><tt>ModuleProvider</tt> has been <a
-href="http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?view=rev&revision=94686">removed</a>
-and its methods moved to <tt>Module</tt> and <tt>GlobalValue</tt>.
-Most clients can remove uses of <tt>ExistingModuleProvider</tt>,
-replace <tt>getBitcodeModuleProvider</tt> with
-<tt>getLazyBitcodeModule</tt>, and pass their <tt>Module</tt> to
-functions that used to accept <tt>ModuleProvider</tt>. Clients who
-wrote their own <tt>ModuleProvider</tt>s will need to derive from
-<tt>GVMaterializer</tt> instead and use
-<tt>Module::setMaterializer</tt> to attach it to a
-<tt>Module</tt>.</li>
-
-<li><tt>GhostLinkage</tt> has given up the ghost.
-<tt>GlobalValue</tt>s that have not yet been read from their backing
-storage have the same linkage they will have after being read in.
-Clients must replace calls to
-<tt>GlobalValue::hasNotBeenReadFromBitcode</tt> with
-<tt>GlobalValue::isMaterializable</tt>.</li>
-
-<li>The <tt>isInteger</tt>, <tt>isIntOrIntVector</tt>, <tt>isFloatingPoint</tt>,
-<tt>isFPOrFPVector</tt> and <tt>isFPOrFPVector</tt> methods have been renamed
-<tt>isIntegerTy</tt>, <tt>isIntOrIntVectorTy</tt>, <tt>isFloatingPointTy</tt>,
-<tt>isFPOrFPVectorTy</tt> and <tt>isFPOrFPVectorTy</tt> respectively.</li>
-
-<li><tt>llvm::Instruction::clone()</tt> no longer takes argument.</li>
-<li><tt>raw_fd_ostream</tt>'s constructor now takes a flag argument, not individual
- booleans (see <tt>include/llvm/Support/raw_ostream.h</tt> for details).</li>
