[llvm-dev] Changing address space

[Erdem Derebaşoğlu via llvm-dev]

I mean the address space that LLVM supports. Is there a way to identify thread local variables? I will later use a codegen pass to make use of address spaces.

Do you mean the conceptual address space that LLVM supports, or some kind of "address space" in an OS/Executable kind of sense?

LLVM has support for address spaces, so shouldn't be very hard to achieve this as a "pass" (assuming you can identify TL variables in the first place). 

Obviously at some later stage the address space needs to be taken into account in the code-gen to machine code, as well, which is a slightly different matter.

Dear all,
I would like to store thread local variables in a different address space than global variables in an OpenMP program. Is it possible to do it using LLVM (perhaps with an optimization pass)?
