It's similar to, but a simpler version of the ABI emission problem. The frontend has to know properties of the target to emit the IR for it. It's infeasible to encode all of the possible address space information in a simple datalayout string. > Furthermore, this stance on DataLayout is somewhat curious, considering we do > use it precisely for that, in Clang, around things like globals and > `alloca`s. What's your suggestion there? Where is the datalayout providing semantics in clang? The clang usage of the datalayout should be limited to computing type sizes and other low level ABI details (not semantics) https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/108786 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
