[LLVMdev] Building poolalloc with current LLVM development branch?

[Will Dietz]

John Criswell would definitely be the guy to ask about this, cc'ing him.

Until then, here's what I can tell you:

AFAIK the poolalloc transformation itself is unmaintained and has been
for a while.

The CMake version of the build system is especially unmaintained,
but likely wouldn't be too difficult to get working again.

The poolalloc 'module' (poolalloc+DSA) should build with 'make' on recent LLVM,
but I've only tested DSA recently and only lightly at that :).

Hope this helps,

~Will
