update_test_checks: add new --filter-out-after option (#129739) Whilst trying to clean up some loop vectoriser IR tests (see test/Transforms/LoopVectorize/AArch64/partial-reduce-chained.ll for example) a reviewer on PR #129047 suggested it would be nice to have an option to stop generating CHECK lines after a certain point. Typically when performing a transformation with the loop vectoriser we don't usually care about any CHECK lines generated for the scalar tail of the loop, since the scalar loop is kept intact. Previously if you wanted to eliminate such unwanted CHECK lines you had to run the update script, then manually delete all the lines corresponding to the scalar loop. This can be very time consuming if the tests ever need changing. What I've tried to do here is add a new --filter-out-after option alongside the existing --filter* options that provides support for stopping the generation of any CHECK lines beyond the line that matches the filter. With the existing filter options we never generate CHECK-NEXT lines, but we still care about ordering with --filter-out-after so I've amended the code to ensure we treat this filter differently.
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.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
