<div dir="ltr">Yep we're doing a bit of Python-to-LLVM and would be happy to chat, but as Reid said I don't think Pyston would be helpful if you wanted to target anything other than local execution. There are some other Python-to-LLVM projects out there: I'll shamelessly plug the predecessor to Pyston, "icbd", as something that might be more relevant, since it's a static Python-to-llvm compiler. <a href="https://github.com/kmod/icbd/tree/master/icbd/compiler">https://github.com/kmod/icbd/tree/master/icbd/compiler</a><div>
<br></div><div>Another interesting project is Numba ( <a href="http://numba.pydata.org/">http://numba.pydata.org/</a> ) -- I believe they focus more on the HPC/numerical computing use case, which might be likely to be a match given the target of VHDL.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I'm not familiar with any LLVM-to-VHDL HLS tools, but I imagine they have to exist (a quick search for "LLVM HLS" turns up some results).</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">
