The existing implementation has three issues which this patch addresses. 1. The last dimension which represents the bytes in the type, has the wrong stride and count. For example, for a 4 byte int, count=1 and stride=4. The correct representation here is count=4 and stride=1 because there are 4 bytes (count=4) that we need to copy and we do not skip any bytes (stride=1). 2. The size of the data copy was computed using the last dimension. However, this is incorrect in cases where some of the final dimensions get merged into one. In this case we need to take the combined size of the merged dimensions, which is (Count * Stride) of the first merged dimension. 3. The Offset into a dimension was computed as a multiple of its Stride. However, this Stride which is in bytes, already includes the stride multiplier given by the user. This means that when the user specified 1:3:2, i.e. elements 1, 3, 5, the runtime incorrectly copied elements 2, 4, 6. Fix this by precomputing at compile time the Offset to be in bytes by correctly multiplying the offset by the stride of the dimension without the user-specified multiplier.
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
