6.1.1 (2018-05-06)

• Fix the source distribution by adding missing files to extra-source-files.

6.1.0 (2018-05-05)

• Remove the MetadataNodeReference constructor. References to metadata nodes are now encoded using the polymorphic MDRef type.
• Add support for encoding and decoding debug metadata. Thanks to @xldenis who started that effort!
• Drop support for GHC 7.10.
• Support decoding/encoding of metadata in GlobalVariable and Function.
• Fix check that the type of GlobalReference is correct in the presence of automatic renamings due to name collisions.
• Extract LinkingLayer into a separate module.

6.0.0 (2018-03-06)

• Support for LLVM 6.0, take a look at the changelog of llvm-hs-pure for details.
• Add AggregateZero for zero-initializing structs, arrays and vectors. Previously Null was used for null pointers as well as zero-inializing aggregates. The new behavior reflects LLVM’s internal representation and the C++-API.
• Enforce that Null is only used on pointer types. Existing uses of Null on arrays, structs and vector must be changed to the newly introduced AggregateZero.

5.1.3 (2018-01-06)

• Add bindings to loadLibraryPermamently and getSymbolAddressInProcess.

5.1.2 (2017-12-19)

• Reupload of 5.1.1 since Hackage broke during the original upload.

5.1.1 (2017-12-16)

• Fix argument order in LLVM_Hs_CreateTargetMachine. This affects withTargetMachine and withHostTargetMachine.
• Add support for MCTargetOptions.

5.1.0 (2017-10-12)

Bugfixes

• Set target options in withTargetMachine. Previously the options passed there were simply ignored.
• Fix decoding of constant vectors.
• Fix decoding of function attributes in calls.

Enhancements

• Support for more target options.
• Suport string attributes as parameter attributes.
• Support more calling conventions.
• Support NoTail TailCallKind.

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

4.1.0 (2017-05-17)

• Switch most of the API from String to ByteString.
• Switch from ExceptT to using exceptions. See LLVM.Exception for an overview of the exceptions potentially thrown.

4.0.1

• Fix linking of system libraries

4.0.0 (initial release, changes in comparison to llvm-general)

• Move modules from LLVM.General* to LLVM.*
• Support for LLVM 4.0
• Improved support for LLVM’s exception handling instructions
• -fshared-llvm is now supported on windows (thanks to @RyanGLScott)
• Default to -fshared-llvm
• Expose LLVM.Internal.* modules.
