- The naming prefix is LLVM.
- All types are represented using opaque references.
- Functions are not named LLVM{Type}{Method}; the names became
unreadable goop. Instead, they are named LLVM{ImperativeSentence}.
- Where an attribute only appears once in the class hierarchy (e.g.,
linkage only applies to values; parameter types only apply to
function types), the class is omitted from identifiers for
brevity. Tastes like methods.
- Strings are C strings or string/length tuples on a case-by-case
basis.
- APIs which give the caller ownership of an object are not mapped
(removeFromParent, certain constructor overloads). This keeps
keep memory management as simple as possible.
For each library with bindings:
llvm-c/<LIB>.h - Declares the bindings.
lib/<LIB>/<LIB>.cpp - Implements the bindings.
So just link with the library of your choice and use the C header
instead of the C++ one.

access to bits). Use them in place of float and
double interfaces where appropriate.
First bits of x86 long double constants handling
(untested, probably does not work).
llvm-svn: 41858
Use APFloat in UpgradeParser and AsmParser.
Change all references to ConstantFP to use the
APFloat interface rather than double. Remove
the ConstantFP double interfaces.
Use APFloat functions for constant folding arithmetic
and comparisons.
(There are still way too many places APFloat is
just a wrapper around host float/double, but we're
getting there.)

to handle values bigger than double. If we assume host==target and host
long double works correctly, this is not too bad, but we don't want to
have that limitation longterm. I could implement accepting double
constants as long double or something like that, which would lead to
incorrect codegen with no errors; the more I think about that the worse
it seems. Rather than do such a hack that would be backed out later,
I'm settling for giving reasonable error messages, for now.

This shrinks kc++ from 2815788 to 2724088 bytes, which means the bitcode
file is now smaller than the bytecode file.

This shrinks the type_block of kc++ from 139901 bits to 99389 bits (0.55% to 0.39%
of the file), a 40% reduction.

This is 11% smaller than the VST in the bytecode format.

relieves us from having to emit the abbrevs into each instance of the block.
This shrinks kc.bit from 3368K to 3333K, but will be a more significant win
once instructions are abbreviated.

Isn't it nice to be able to optimizer bc size without touching the reader? :)

integer structure idx's are emitted before constant expr geps) and shrinks
files slightly. For example kc++ shrinks from 4326188 to 4240128 bytes.
