  • Libraries.

    1. STLPort: A port of the original STL to many platforms. Derived from the SGI implementation.
    2. Microsoft Predefined Macros

  • Memo

    1. llvm/lib/Target/ISDOpcodes.h. The target-independent operators for a SelectionDAG are defined here.
    2. llvm/include/llvm/CodeGen/SelectionDAGNodes.h. SDNode class and derived classes are defined here.
    3. TokenFactor Node

    • This node takes multiple tokens as input and produces a single token result. This is used to represent the fact that the operand operators are independent of each other.

  • llvm/utils/TableGen/CodeGenInstruction.h/cpp. Instruction generated by tablegen.

  • Questions:

    1. What's the functionality of TokenFactor Node (except grouping Loads and Exports)? How does it interact with instruction scheduling, register allocating and alias analysis?
