Alchemist plugin is a collection of plugins for GCC/LLVM for external and fine-grain code analysis and tuning. It is intended to to extract program properties for machine learning based optimization (see MILEPOST GCC); optimize programs at fine-grain level (such as unrolling, tiling, prefetching, etc); tune default optimization heuristic; gradually decompose program and detect performance or other anomalies; generate benchmarks particularly useful to train ML-based compilers. GCC plugin is licenced under GPLv3 licensed, while future LLVM plugins will be licensed under BSD license. Alchemist plugin is in a preliminary stage (based on MILEPOST ML plugin), so collaborations are very welcome!
