<pre>>Hi Jonas,<br>><br>>><i> is there any work ongoing in the area of fix-point support for LLVM?<br></i>><br>>not as far as I know.<br>><br>>><i> If not, what would be required to implement it?<br></i>><br>>I assume you are talking about support for fixed point in the clang<br>>front-end, rather than LLVM itself, since in LLVM IR presumably it<br>>would just be represented as operations on integers, or library calls.<br>>If indeed you want clang support you should ask on the clang mailing<br>>list.<br>><br>>Ciao,<br>><br>>Duncan.<br>><br><br>Hi Duncan,<br><br>no, actually, I want to use special instructions in the ISA that handles fix-point operands,<br>so I need a new type in the LLVM I/R and in the code-generator, I think, as well as in Clang.<br><br>/Jonas<br><br></pre> </body>
