I think he tries to use it with sparse as the front-end.

but that means that the actual code optimization/generation part (llvm) is the same between clang and his sparse based work, so if the former can produce a working kernel (and has been able to do so for quite some time now) then his tool should be able to as well. sure, there're some gcc/gas features that clang/llvm don't have yet but they can be patched around on the linux side (my diff is about 60kB, 60 files changed, 258 insertions(+), 213 deletions(-)).

Instead of speculating, you can just send a email and coordinate.

err, i'm not interested in sparse ;).

You were wondering what he was doing in your first comment in this thread. So I assumed you were interested in the answer.

does rhetorical question mean anything to you? :P obviously if clang/llvm work fine (for me) then the problems must be somewhere else. now that it turned out to be the sparse/llvm interface, i consider the matter settled.
