The profile-instr-generate and profile-generate options in LLVM instrumentation serve distinct purposes. Profile-instr-generate generates instrumentation based on profiling data during compilation, aiding in performance optimization. In contrast, profile-generate is used to generate a profile based

In this exercise, an LLVM IR function is created to extract the element at index 2 from a pointer to an array of integers. The concept of named memory in LLVM is reviewed, distinguishing between local, global, and constant memory declarations. Additionally, memory access operations like store, load,

Line coverage profiling in LLVM is implemented using built-in instrumentation facilities. This approach involves inserting PGO probes, interpreting them as coverage measurements, and generating coverage reports to assess the coverage of a test suite. The process allows for generating profile informa

Loop Invariant Code Motion (LICM) is a technique used in LLVM to move operations that do not change within a loop outside of the loop, improving performance by executing them only once per loop iteration. This process must be done carefully to handle memory operations and operations that are not exe
