[LLVMdev] MCJIT

[Kaylor, Andrew]

Hi Braxton,

I think it's very good.  All of the ExecutionEngine tests pass.  I'm not aware of any major defects.

I don't believe that the current implementation sets the permissions on JITed memory as you might wish.  Namely, I think executable memory may be left writeable and data memory may be executable.  The current interface is also somewhat limited.  Basically, you pass a Module to the constructor, it JITs that Module immediately and then you can get the address of individual functions to execute them.  What is there works though.

Hi All,

What is the current level of stability of MCJIT using ELF?

Thanks.
