[llvm-dev] Hello

[Mihir Sevak via llvm-dev]

I own this book and it doesn't cover IR in depth. I am trying to write an
additional feature for C++ frontend and for that I want to use proper
Intermediate Representation that doesn't become a laughing stock so I am
looking for some in depth explanation on IR. I am aware that it changes so
fast that a book will become outdated however for my exercise I am willing
to go back to the version the book covers and implement it there. If you
have used some book personally and recommend it please share with me.

Thanks.
