Since https://github.com/ARM-software/acle/pull/276 the ACLE defines attributes to better describe the use of a given SME state. Previously the attributes merely described the possibility of it being 'shared' or 'preserved', whereas the new attributes have more semantics and also describe how the data flows through the program. For ZT0 we already had to add new LLVM IR attributes: * aarch64_new_zt0 * aarch64_in_zt0 * aarch64_out_zt0 * aarch64_inout_zt0 * aarch64_preserves_zt0 We have now done the same for ZA, such that we add: * aarch64_new_za (previously `aarch64_pstate_za_new`) * aarch64_in_za (more specific variation of `aarch64_pstate_za_shared`) * aarch64_out_za (more specific variation of `aarch64_pstate_za_shared`) * aarch64_inout_za (more specific variation of `aarch64_pstate_za_shared`) * aarch64_preserves_za (previously `aarch64_pstate_za_shared, aarch64_pstate_za_preserved`) This explicitly removes 'pstate' from the name, because with SME2 and the new ACLE attributes there is a difference between "sharing ZA" (sharing the ZA matrix register with the caller) and "sharing PSTATE.ZA" (sharing either the ZA or ZT0 register, both part of PSTATE.ZA with the caller).
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
