Dear,

After to build the llvm lib from https://github.com/thewilsonator/llvm . I tried to build ldc2

with v1.9-beta1

/ldc2-1.9/tools/ldc-profdata/llvm-profdata-5.0.cpp:175:6: error: no matching function for call to 'llvm::InstrProfWriter::addRecord(std::remove_reference<llvm::InstrProfRecord&>::type, const uint64_t&, loadInput(const WeightedFile&, WriterContext*)::<lambda(llvm::Error)>)'


And we can see that the signature is not the same:

$ grep addRecord /env/ig/soft/ig/llvm-spirv-5.0.0/el6-x86_64-generic/include/llvm/ProfileData/InstrProfWriter.h
  Error addRecord(InstrProfRecord &&I, uint64_t Weight = 1);

with ldc2 1.8.0

/ldc2-1.8/runtime/jit-rt/cpp-so/disassembler.cpp:297:32: error: 'const class llvm::object::SectionRef' has no member named 'getIndex'


And we can see that the signature do not exists into the modifief LLVM:

$ grep -R getIndex /env/ig/soft/ig/llvm-spirv-5.0.0/el6-x86_64-generic/include/llvm/Object/ObjectFile.h
$

I would like to know if someone has built ldc2 with LLVM SPIR-V enabled in order to use dcompute ?

Thanks

Best regards
