How to compile VIP

Set up VIP compiler for LTO

cd ~/vip
git clone --depth 1 git://sourceware.org/git/binutils-gdb.git binutils

mkdir binutils-build
cd binutils-build
../binutils/configure --enable-gold --enable-plugins --disable-werror
make

Initial setup and compiling the library

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make

Compiling VIP components (run in vip/build)

Building the kernel

$ make kernel
$ make kernel-install

Note: In order to run the examples and use VIP, the VIP kernel needs to be installed on your machine.

Building jemalloc

$ cd ../jemalloc
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ cd ../build
$ make jemalloc

Building ptmalloc

$ make ptmalloc

Building VIP compiler

$ make llvm

Setting the linker executables

cd ~
mkdir sys-backup
cd /usr/bin/
cp ar ~/sys-backup/
cp nm ~/sys-backup/
cp ld ~/sys-backup/
cp ranlib ~/sys-backup/

cd /usr/bin/
sudo cp ~/vip/binutils-build/binutils/ar ./
sudo rm nm
sudo cp ~/vip/binutils-build/binutils/nm-new ./nm
sudo cp ~/vip/binutils-build/binutils/ranlib ./
sudo cp ~/vip/binutils-build/gold/ld-new ./ld

cd /usr/lib
sudo mkdir bfd-plugins
cd bfd-plugins
sudo cp ~/vip/llvm-project/build/lib/LLVMgold.so ./
sudo cp ~/vip/llvm-project/build/lib/libLTO.\* ./

export RANLIB=/bin/true

Running examples

$ cd examples
$ make examples
$ ./example
$ ./example_cpp

If you wish to use the VIP compiler, please check vip/examples/CMakeLists.txt for all the flags necessary. You can copy the CMakeLists file and modify it to add your source files to it.
