This is just a guess, but the DVB-T Viterbi decoder uses SSE2 intrinsics for performance. In gnuradio/gr-dtv/lib/CMakeLists.txt, the flag "-msse2" is added to CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS.

Hello everyone,

I'm actually doing my bachelor thesis about Just In Time compiler and I want to integrate this technology in GNURadio. I've already created OOT module with integrated JIT functionality. I'm now trying to add an in-tree module. I'm trying to do that by copying the dvbt viterbi decoder block. The JIT compiler that I use is : ClangJIT <https://github.com/hfinkel/llvm-project-cxxjit/wiki> . For testing, I use the example dvbt_rx_8k. I’m working from the maint-3.7 branch. I added my new block and replace the originalviterbi decoderin the example. Unfortunately, when running the application, I have the following error :

Traceback (most recent call last):

I’ve already search in the mailing list for solution, but all the solution that I’ve found are for OOT module.

When running c++filt, I get the following result :

unsigned char gr::dtv::dvbt_viterbi_decoder_jit_impl::dvbt_viterbi_get_output_sse2<(*this).d_ntraceback>(long long __vector(2)*, long long __vector(2)*, unsigned char*)

Which is the result I wanted to see.

I use the following cmake command when building from source :

cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/opt/release/llvm/bin/clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/opt/release/llvm/bin/clang++ -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python2 -DPYTHON_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.so -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gnuradioClangJit -DJIT_ENABLE=ON -DENABLE_GR_UHD=OFF ../

CMAKE_C_COMPILER and CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER points to the llvm version with clangJIT (see link above). JIT_ENABLE enable the flags for the JIT compiler.

Every change that I’ve made are on the following git (and commit ): https://github.com/Pacco1217/gnuradio/commit/14d656e5aecc998bb1cda9259de8a639dabf6d04

About the computer :

Kernel : 4.18.0-25-generic

OS : Ubuntu 18.10

Does anyone has already faced the same difficulties or having a possible solution to this problem ?

Thanks in advance for your answers,

Basler Corentin
