<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<br>
<br>
for passes that apply to SCoPs I would suggest to write a ScopPass<br>
within polly. Importing/exporting a jscop file would be more something<br>
for external tools. The reason is that from a LLVM loop- or<br>
function-pass it is non-obvious what a SCoP (which is a loop nest that<br>
fulfils the requirements for Polly's analysis to work) will be. A<br>
ScopPass will just be invoked on previously detected SCoPs, can modify<br>
them, and Polly will re-generate LLVM-IR again when all ScopPasses<br>
have been applied.<br>

> I am looking into using polly, in conjunction with a set of passes that I am writing, to modify loop schedules/transform loops. I was wondering if there is a way to interface with polly directly through an LLVM pass? It seems by looking at the documentation,
that the way to modify loop schedules is to generate the jscop files, modify them, and then reload them with polly, which is not a very “friendly” mechanism to do automatically in a pass. Is my understanding of the usage of polly correct here, or am I missing
something?<br>
