+IcedTea provides a +harness to build OpenJDK using only free software build tools and to provide +replacements for the not-yet free parts of OpenJDK. One of the extensions that +IcedTea provides is a new JIT compiler named Shark which uses LLVM +to provide native code generation without introducing processor-dependent +code. +
+Icedtea6 1.8 and later have been tested and are known to work with +LLVM 2.7 (and continue to work with older LLVM releases >= 2.6 as well). +
++LLVM-Lua uses LLVM + to add JIT and static compiling support to the Lua VM. Lua +bytecode is analyzed to remove type checks, then LLVM is used to compile the +bytecode down to machine code. +
+LLVM-Lua 1.2.0 have been tested and is known to work with LLVM 2.7. +
