GSoC 2025 - Byte Type: Supporting Raw Data Copies in the LLVM IR
This summer I participated in GSoC under the LLVM Compiler Infrastructure. The goal of the project was to add a new byte type to the LLVM IR, capable of representing raw memory values.

With the increasing importance of GPU computing, having a robust and familiar C standard library becomes a valuable asset for developers. The LLVM project is actively working to provide this foundation, as a solid libc implementation enables more complex libraries to be developed for and used on GPUs.

LLVMCGO25 - CARTS: Enabling Event-Driven Task and Data Block Compilation for Distributed HPC Hello everyone! I’m Rafael, a PhD candidate at the University of Delaware. I recently flew from Philadelphia to Las Vegas to attend the CGO conference, where I had the chance to present my project and soak in new ideas about HPC.

LLVM has included a Fortran compiler “Flang” since LLVM 11 in late 2020. However, until recently the Flang binary was not flang (like clang) but instead flang-new. LLVM 20 ends the era of flang-new.

Hello everyone! My name is Thomas and for GSOC I’ve been working on adding plugin support for LLVM and Clang to windows, which mainly involved implementing proper support for building LLVM and Clang as shared libraries (known as DLLs on Windows, dylibs on macOS, or DSOs/SOs on most other Unices) on Windows.

Some time ago I was talking about an ahead-of-time Ruby compiler. We started the project with certain goals and hypotheses in mind, and while the original compiler is at nearly 90% completion, there are still those other 90% that needs to be done.

Hey everyone! My name is Shourya and I worked on LLVM this summer through GSoC. My project is called The 1001 thresholds in LLVM. The main objective of this project was to study how varying different thresholds in llvm affect performance parameters like compile-time, bitcode-size, execution-time and llvm stats.
