Parallella Community

Hoernchen, That's incredibly impressive!! Hopefully you will get lots of beta testers and collaborators. Please let me know if you need anything from us.
Cheers,
Andreas

Good News! Thank you Hoernchen!

Hoernchen provided a very clear todo list in the post. It's time for the community to discuss how others can contribute to the llvm/clang toolchain for Epiphany based on Hoernchen's work. I list some topics here (many from Hoernchen's post, just make it clear to further discussion).

1. write test cases for the backend and report bugs
2. clang support
3. Elf writer
4. MCJIT support

Any others we can start to do?

Great work!!
You wrote this all by yourself in such a short term? Incredible!!!!

LLVM is one of the most important technology for computing platform today.
With LLVM, we will be able to write codes for Epiphany with ANY programming languages we want.

I will contribute by reporting bugs etc., but I need Parallella first!

I can set people up with ssh access for a remote parallella board. Just message me your ssh keys and desired user name.

Well you can just forward the port to the board (assuming you fixed its IP address).

The issue is then that the board can act as a gateway to access your internal network so ideally you need to setup a DMZ for the board so that it's alone in its own isolated/sandboxed network.

Of course... Thanks!

A working LLVM is great of course, though I wouldn't by a long stretch call it superior to a well made gnu compiler, possibly smaller. probably more overseeable. Is it GPL-ed, or can you keep your patches to yourself (i.e. your ported version, must you share the sources?).
