<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Hi, I have two questions about llvm, and expect
your reply very much.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1. Is there any plan of llvm to support Thread-Level Parallelism
by using OpenMP, MPI, pthread or llvm-defined directives?</DIV>
<DIV> If automatic parallelism exploring is very
hard, what is the key problem? We can't get the precise data
dependence</DIV>
<DIV> information at compile-time?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>2. Can I use the functions provided by llvm to get the real data
dependence(Read After Write) info on basic block level directly?</DIV>
<DIV> In other words, can I get the task graph(node: task viewed as
basic block or more coarse grain, edge: real data dependence) </DIV>
<DIV> from sequential program using llvm to explore task-level
parallelism by some proposed task scheduling algorithm?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>thanks.</DIV>
