From cfdd908c45f0b7b1a3d34aed049d26ff0317ab87 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pekka Jaaskelainen Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2015 16:45:55 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Added the usual pocl and TCE blurbs. Both now work with LLVM 3.7. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/branches/release_37@245068 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8 --- docs/ReleaseNotes.rst | 30 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 30 insertions(+) diff --git a/docs/ReleaseNotes.rst b/docs/ReleaseNotes.rst index d0b62a350ec..d98a4c50336 100644 --- a/docs/ReleaseNotes.rst +++ b/docs/ReleaseNotes.rst @@ -231,6 +231,36 @@ x86/x86_64 systems like Linux, OS X, FreeBSD and Windows and also Linux on PowerPC (32/64 bit).

An important part of pocl is a set of LLVM passes used to +statically parallelize multiple work-items with the kernel compiler, even in +the presence of work-group barriers. + + +TTA-based Co-design Environment (TCE) +------------------------------------- + +`TCE `_ is a toolset for designing customized +exposed datapath processors based on the Transport triggered +architecture (TTA). + +The toolset provides a complete co-design flow from C/C++ +programs down to synthesizable VHDL/Verilog and parallel program binaries. +Processor customization points include the register files, function units, +supported operations, and the interconnection network. + +TCE uses Clang and LLVM for C/C++/OpenCL C language support, target independent +optimizations and also for parts of code generation. It generates +new LLVM-based code generators "on the fly" for the designed processors and +loads them in to the compiler backend as runtime libraries to avoid +per-target recompilation of larger parts of the compiler chain. + Additional Information ====================== -- 2.49.0
