[llvm-dev] [Ad] New LLVM Book

[Kai Plociennik via llvm-dev]

Hello Min,

thank you very much for writing this book! I ordered one yesterday as 
printed version. This is something that will greatly help people like 
me, I think, who are integrating functionality in many different parts 
of Clang + LLVM (we are creating a hardware accelerator which we target 
and implement OpenMP offloading support).

To have a better understanding of the overall architecture + design 
principles, as well as intended ways of integrating functionality, will 
surely save lots of time and lead to better quality of what is implemented.

Cheers,

Kai Plociennik
