[llvm-dev] Regarding GSOC 2020

[Stefanos Baziotis via llvm-dev]

Hi Milind,

Welcome to LLVM, we're all happy to see people wanting to get involved!

First of all, it would be good if you could talk about the project with the
mentors. If only I knew their e-mail addresses to CC them, but I don't.
You can try to search and maybe have more luck.

Now, the way I understand this project is that it doesn't have to much with
the loop nest optimization
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_nest_optimization> per se, rather,
changing the
structure of loop optimizations. To that end, I think that you'd want to
understand how loop optimizations work in LLVM
(not algorithmically but structurally), understand the role of pass
managers and whatever legacy is being left.

I'd propose that a good place to start is this:

It presents a lot of important things and the bigger part of this video is
a tutorial.
Also, I recommend this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpvZt9w-Jik

Kind regards,
Stefanos Baziotis
