Hello,
The aoc compiler gets the
<input>.cl kernel code and passes to
aocl-clang to generate altera's specific LLVM IR.
I would like to know if I can feed (somehow) the LLVM IR (using
clang -x cl -s -emit-llvm input.cl -o output.ll) inside the
aoc compiler ?
I see that the
aoc compiler uses the
aocl-opt and etc as tool for its chain, but I don't know wich flags should I use. Furthermore, I do not know if
aocl-clang frontend does anything to the IR different from the standard
clang (what I think it is a company secret).
My interest in doing this (feed my clang IR into
aoc) is because I'm writing a LLVM optimization pass which results I would like to use to create an FPGA accelerator.
Thank you
