This was initially committed and promptly reverted in 9059056e273ccc3a236751609e498b4c401eb6ff
after a MSan failure was found by the sanitizer bots.
These have since been fixed.
Summary:
This patch makes the AVR backend an official target of LLVM, serving
as a request for comments for moving the AVR backend out of
experimental.
A future patch will move the LLVM AVR buildbot (llvm-avr-linux) from the
staging buildmaster to the production buildmaster, so error emails will
start to go out.
Summary of the backend
----------------------
- 16-bit little endian
- AsmParser based assembly parser
- uses the MC library for generating AVR ELFs
- most logic driven from standard TableGen-erated tables like other
backends
- passes all of the test suite under `check-all`, including generic
CodeGen and DebugInfo tests
- Used in two frontends
- Limited, but functional support for DebugInfo and LLVM DWARF dumping
- Binary compatible with AVR-GCC and avr-{libc,libgcc} for the most part
- Cannot lower 32-bit shifts due to a bug, can lower shifts larger or
smaller
- Supports assembly/MC for all the entire AVR ISA, generally generates poorly
optimized machine instructions, with most focus thus far on correctness
I've added reviewers and subscribers from previous patches where backends were made official,
and those who participated in the recent thread on llvm-dev, please add anybody I've missed.
