12 Chapter 4 Introduction
13 ======================
15 Welcome to Chapter 4 of the "Building an ORC-based JIT in LLVM" tutorial. This
16 chapter introduces the Compile Callbacks and Indirect Stubs APIs and shows how
17 they can be used to replace the CompileOnDemand layer from
18 `Chapter 3 <BuildingAJIT3.html>`_ with a custom lazy-JITing scheme that JITs
19 directly from Kaleidoscope ASTs.
23 **(1) Describe the drawbacks of JITing from IR (have to compile to IR first,
24 which reduces the benefits of laziness).**
26 **(2) Describe CompileCallbackManagers and IndirectStubManagers in detail.**
28 **(3) Run through the implementation of addFunctionAST.**
33 Here is the complete code listing for our running example that JITs lazily from
34 Kaleidoscope ASTS. To build this example, use:
39 clang++ -g toy.cpp `llvm-config --cxxflags --ldflags --system-libs --libs core orcjit native` -O3 -o toy
45 .. literalinclude:: ../../examples/Kaleidoscope/BuildingAJIT/Chapter4/KaleidoscopeJIT.h
