Description of the project + This continues the work of GSoC 2020 and 2021. + + Developers generally use standard optimization pipelines like -O2 and -O3 to + optimize their code. Manually crafted heuristics are used to determine which + optimization passes to select and how to order the execution of those passes. + However, this process is not tailored for a particular program, or kind + of program, as it is designed to perform “reasonably well” for any input. + + We want to improve the existing heuristics or replace the heuristics with + machine learning-based models so that the LLVM compiler can provide a superior + order of the passes customized per program. + + The last milestone enabled feature extraction, and started investigating training + a policy for selecting a more appropriate pass pipeline. +
+Project size: either 175 or 350 hr.
+Difficulty: Medium
+Skills: C/C++, some compiler experience. ML experience is a bonus.
+Expected outcomes: Pre-trained model selecting the most economical + optimization pipeline, with no loss in performance; hook-up of model in LLVM; + (re-)training tool; come up with new optimization sequences through search or learning.
+Mentors + Tarindu Jayatilaka, Mircea Trofin, Johannes Doerfert +
