Build and Test
Prerequisites
In general you need the following tools and libraries to build mlir-gccjit:
- A working C++ compiler toolchain that supports C++17 standard.
- CMake with minimum version 3.22.
- Ninja build system (recommended but not mandatory).
- LLVM libraries and development files. For now we have only tested LLVM-18.
- MLIR libraries and development files. For now we have only tested MLIR-18.
- libgccjit libraries and development files. For now we have only tested libgccjit-14.
For Ubuntu 24.04 (noble) users:
apt-get install build-essential cmake ninja-build llvm-18-dev llvm-18-tools libmlir-18-dev libgccjit-14-dev mlir-18-tools
Additionally, you need Python and the lit tool to run tests. You can
install the tool via pip:
pip install lit
Build
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Lancern/mlir-gccjit.git
cd mlir-gccjit
Create a build directory:
mkdir build
cd build
Build with CMake and ninja:
cmake -G Ninja ..
ninja
You can run all tests via the check target:
ninja check
