<p>Experimental support for the <b>new isl code generator</b>
|
||||||
|
was committed. The code generator can be parameterized on a fine-grained
|
||||||
|
level. It gives direct control for example over unrolling, the amount of
|
||||||
|
control overhead and the code size. It can also be used to
|
||||||
|
create loops to handle border conditions or to perform full-partial tile
|
||||||
|
separation.<br />
|
||||||
|
We also relicensed isl under the <b>MIT license</b>. This means, with the
|
||||||
|
exception of GMP, there is no GPL licensed software used in Polly. The
|
||||||
|
use of GMP is limited to a well defined interface. Replacing it with
|
||||||
|
a BSD licensed replacement is a tractable engineering project we would
|
||||||
|
be very interested in. For more information about isl see the <a
|
||||||

<p> Polly can now be directly linked to the <a
|
||||||
|
href="http://pluto-compiler.sourceforge.net/">Pluto optimizer</a>. We were
|
||||||
|
already able to perform Pluto-like optimizations with Polly, as a similer
|
||||||
|
algorithm was added to isl half a year ago. However, being able to directly
|
||||||
|
compare with the original implementation will not only bring in competition in
|
||||||
|
the optimizer field. It will also allow new experiments with a cutting edge
|
||||||
|
research tool.<br \>
|
||||||
|
This support was on of the outcomes of the 1-day Polly workshop and the
|
||||||
|
following week of joint work at IISC Bangalore and in cooperation with
|
||||||
|
AMD India.
