One Line Summary

Abstract

LLVM is a collection of software projects, all working off of a (more or less) common code base. The best known LLVM project is “clang” the compiler. But there are many others. In this session, Marshall will take a whirlwind tour of the LLVM ecosystem, and show which parts can be used by kernel developers.
