5.0.0 (2017-09-07)

• Support for LLVM 5.0

  We only give a summary of the changes affecting the public API of llvm-hs here. Please refer to the official release notes for LLVM 5.0 for an overview of all changes in LLVM 5.0.

  • The X86_64_Win64 calling convention is now called Win64.
  • There is a new Speculatable function attribute.
  • The CrossThread synchronization scope has been removed. There is now a new System synchronization scope.
  • The OrcJIT-API now operates on individual modules instead of sets of modules.
  • The lessPreciseFloatingPointMultiplyAddOption field has been removed from the target options.
  • The compressDebugSections option field is now of type DebugCompressionType instead of Bool.
  • The BasicBlockVectorize pass has been removed. You should use SuperwordLevelParallelismVectorize instead.

• Throw 'EncodeException' when the type supplied in a 'GlobalReference' does not match the type of the expression.

• Throw 'EncodeException' when the result of instructions returning void is named using ':='.

4.2.0 (2017-06-20)

• Revamp OrcJIT API
  • The user facing API is now exposed using LLVM.OrcJIT.
  • All user facing functions have been documented.
  • In addition the bracket-style API, there are now new* and dispose* functions making it easier to ingegrate OrcJIT in custom monad transformer stacks.
  • There is a new CompileLayer typeclass which abstracts over the various compile layers in OrcJIT.
• Support QuickCheck 2.10
