Starting from LLVM-IR it detects and +extracts interesting loop kernels. For each kernel a mathematical model is +derived which precisely describes the individual computations and memory +accesses in the kernels. Within Polly a variety of analysis and code +transformations are performed on this mathematical model. After all +optimizations have been derived and applied, optimized LLVM-IR is regenerated +and inserted into the LLVM-IR module. + +.. image:: images/architecture.png diff --git a/polly/docs/images/architecture.png b/polly/docs/images/architecture.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 00000000000..c540e727cf9 --- /dev/null +++ b/polly/docs/images/architecture.png diff --git a/polly/docs/index.rst b/polly/docs/index.rst index a7ad6763a1d..9fbc8940c6c 100644 --- a/polly/docs/index.rst +++ b/polly/docs/index.rst @@ -15,6 +15,7 @@ Using Polly .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 + Architecture UsingPollyWithClang Indices and tables |
