[Clang] Use private address space for builtin_alloca return type for OpenCL (#95750) The __builtin_alloca was returning a flat pointer with no address space when compiled using openCL1.2 or below but worked fine with openCL2.0 and above. This accounts to the fact that later uses the concept of generic address space which supports cast to other address space(i.e to private address space which is used for stack allocation) . But, in actuality, as it returns pointer to the stack, it should be pointing to private address space irrespective of openCL version becuase builtin_alloca allocates stack memory used for current function in which it is called. Thus,it requires redefintion of the builtin function with appropraite return pointer to private address space.
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.
