<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Now we have prototype with these features. It’s tested on LLVM 3.8.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There was found unsupported before directive in old test. Bug about this -
<a href="https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27852">https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27852</a>.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There is about 6% slowdown with new features when we tested them on 3.8.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I see that there are some changes in FileCheck LLVM 3.9 with new features too. We can publish patch for 3.8 and it can be adapted for LLVM 3.9. Is it interesting for anyone? And how will be better to publish patch as for 3.8 or for 3.9?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
