[LLVMdev] LLVM version with working Alpha backend

[Chad Rosier]

Hi Giang,
Given that the community deprecated the Alpha backend, I'm doubtful anyone would be able to point you in the right direction.  Have you iteratively tried the difference versions of LLVM (i.e., 2.9, 2.8, 2.7 on down the line)?

Since Alpha support has been dropped,  I tried using version 2.8, but it is quite buggy, probably because the Alpha backend has not been maintained.  I was wondering if there is an earlier version where the Alpha backend is stable enough to compile SPEC 2k?  For my purpose, I do not need the most advanced optimizations, so an earlier version with stable and reasonably optimized Alpha backend will do.
