   The name LLVM originally stood for Low Level Virtual Machine, though the project has expanded and the name is no longer officially an initialism. LLVM is written in C++ and is designed for compile-time, link-time, runtime, and "idle-time" optimization.

   Nov 1, 2012 · LLVM is not a virtual machine. It's a compiler infrastructure. "Despite its name, LLVM has little to do with traditional virtual machines, though it does provide helpful libraries that can be used to build them." llvm.org. Well, for one you could have gone to the widely available documentation explaining what LLVM actually is.

   Sep 17, 2012 · The LLVM Project is a collection of modular and reusable compiler and toolchain technologies. Despite its name, LLVM has little to do with traditional virtual machines. The name "LLVM" itself is not an acronym; it is the full name of the project.

   This paper presents LLVM — Low-Level Virtual Ma-chine — a compiler framework that aims to make lifelong program analysis and transformation available for arbitrary software, and in a manner that is transparent to program-mers. LLVM achieves this through two parts: (a) a code rep-resentation with several novel features that serves as a com-

   What is LLVM (low level virtual machine)?

   • 3. xiongyingfei.github.io/SA/2015/4%20LLVM%20-%20GaoQing.pdf LLVM (used to mean "Low Level Virtual Machine" but not anymore) is a compiler infrastructure, written in C++, which is designed for compile-time, link-time, run-time, and "idle-time" optimization of programs written in arbitrary programming languages.

   How does LLVM work?

   • LLVM can accept the IR from the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) toolchain, allowing it to be used with a wide array of extant compiler front-ends written for that project. LLVM can also be built with gcc after version 7.5. LLVM can also generate relocatable machine code at compile-time or link-time or even binary machine code at runtime.

   What does LLVM stand for?

   • @smallB: I didn't downvote, but I guess the question is too much about reading the LLVM's FAQ. It's neither of those things. LLVM used to stand for 'low level virtual machine' but that never meant a complete virtual machine in the sense of Java or .NET, and 'LLVM' has since stopped being an abbreviation. A central part of LLVM is LLVM IR.

   Can LLVM be used as a compiler?

   • The LLVM Core libraries are well documented, and it is particularly easy to invent your own language (or port an existing compiler) to use LLVM as an optimizer and code generator.

   What is the LLVM project?

   • The LLVM project started in 2000 at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, under the direction of Vikram Adve and Chris Lattner. LLVM was originally developed as a research infrastructure to investigate dynamic compilation techniques for static and dynamic programming languages.

   What is LLVM compiler infrastructure?

   • The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure is particularly useful for performing optimizations and transformations on code. It also consists of a number of tools serving distinct usages. llvm-prof is a profiling tool that allows you to do profiling of execution in order to identify program hotspots.

   LLVM is a virtual machine infrastructure that doesn’t provide any of the high-level features you’d find in something like the Java or .NET virtual machines, including garbage collection and an object model. The basic design of LLVM is an unlimited register machine (URM), familiar to most computer scientists as a universal model of computation.
