[BOLT][AArch64][instr] Consider targeting ARM64 CPUs without LSE support (#158738) `stadd` is only available in recent arm64 CPUs that have LSE support (like Cortex-A73 and Cortex-A75) and is not available on old arm64 CPUs (like Cortex-A53 and Cortex-A55). Devices could have a mixture of these two kinds of CPUs, for which we need to provide an option for BOLT to generate instrumentation sequence that emulates what `stadd` would do. The implementation puts counter increment into an injected helper function so we don't need to update CFG in the function that is being instrumented and instrumentation induced binary size increase will be smaller.
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.
