[llvm-dev] Need to help on how to write An LLVM Register Allocator pass

[Balasaheb Dabhade via llvm-dev]

Sorry, forgot to attach the build error log file.
LLVM build giving following error

/home/iiita/cse231-proj1/llvm/src/lib/CodeGen/Gcra.cpp:172:6: error: use of
undeclared identifier 'createGcra'
                                        createGcra);

I have attached log file for reference.

Any kind of help is appreciated!!

Thanks,
Bala
