The 3.6 release is drawing nearer, but the release notes could still use a lot of improvement:
LLVM: https://github.com/llvm-mirror/llvm/blob/release_36/docs/ReleaseNotes.rst Clang: https://github.com/llvm-mirror/clang/blob/release_36/docs/ReleaseNotes.rst The good news is that they can be updated all the way up until release. If you have a patch for the release notes, commit it directly to the branch, or send it to me and I'll commit it for you. It doesn't even have to be a patch proper, just send me some text! I've been going through Alex's excellent weekly news (http://llvmweekly.org) to figure out what changed. Here's a list of things that might be worth mentioning in the notes: LLVM: - the assume intrinsic - scoped noalias metadata - the old JIT being removed - kaleidoscope debug info chapter - TargetMachine/TargetSubtargetInfo API changes - AArch64 FastISel improvements - the new CFL alias analysis - the new vector shuffle lowering - Go bindings - minnum/maxnum intrinsics - statepoint intrinsics Clang: - C++14 support was marked complete - C now defaults to C11 mode - thread-safety analysis was updated - MS ABI compatibility - fpic and -fPIC are now different _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
