[Dotgnu-libjit] Linear Scan Register Allocation Algorithm / Repository at Google Code

[Kirill Kononenko]

Hello everyone


I have done a lot of research and development in integrating a linear
scan register allocation algorithm. The code is in a branch of libJIT
at http://code.google.com/p/libjit-linear-scan-register-allocator/.
This was made in hope that when the project is mature enough it will
be integrated back with the savannah repository. Just very short at
the moment, the new code generator is turned on with an optimization
level above 0 and also with a special abi called 'internal' which has
been introduced. I give a link to a benchmark comparision I made some
time ago for a Pentium M IA-32 machine (
http://libjit-linear-scan-register-allocator.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/docs/benchmark.pdf
).

Please let me know your feedback.


Thanks,
Kirill
