Hi,

What I mean is the spec of spir 1.2/2.0 has very clear example about how the 
metadata should organized. But now with this patch, the result of spir is 
changed and not like it before. So what I want to know is why we change the old 
spir example style code, but not add something alongside.
Now we have metadata after each function but spir shows a opencl.kernels 
metadata is need for all modules:
"Each SPIR module has a opencl.kernels named metadata node containing a list of 
metadata objects."

I think this patch maybe useful for some other target, but we should not break 
the old spir as now we have not had a substitute one.

Thanks
Xiuli

Hi Xiuli,

Could you please elaborate what do you think it broken exactly?

Because we haven't actually removed opencl.kernels metadata but just changed 
the format of it. 

Basically, we are using function metadata instead of generic metadata as it was 
before.

Thanks,
Anastasia

Hi Sam,

I am now using llvm39 to enable our opencl driver, but I found this patch broke 
the spir target as well.
The opencl.kernels metadata is required by spir spec. I think we should keep 
the old code for spir target.

Thanks
Xiuli
