Hi Dan,

Sure. That said I think people are just doing it anyhow :) On Wed, Sep 19, 2018 at 3:59 PM Dan Gohman <sunfish at mozilla.com> wrote:

Hi Eric,

We've been waiting until we stabilize various key interfaces, including the builtin functions, the C ABI, and the .o file format., as we'd like to avoid having users using packaged versions of LLVM producing C/C++ source files or .o/.a files that end up being incompatible with newer versions of LLVM. To my knowledge, all of the major issues are fixed now, and the only remaining blocker is that we need to decide what to do here: https://reviews.llvm.org/D43675 (Rename imported/exported memory symbol _to linearmemory)

On the bright side we just had a release so you'll have 6 mos to get that ironed out? :) That's a good point. I think we can commit to fixing that issue in 6 months :-). I checked in the patch enabling the WebAssembly target, but some of the buildbots found a memory leak (MCSymbolWasm has dynamically allocated memory, but MCSymbol destructors are never run), so I reverted the change for now. As soon as we fix that issue, we should be good to re-enable. Dan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
