• Build Neura:
  • Step into this repo, note that this repo is outside of llvm-project.
  • Build:

 $ mkdir build && cd build
 # Replace the path "/workspace" accordingly.
 $ cmake -G Ninja .. \
     -DLLVM_DIR=/workspace/llvm-project/build/lib/cmake/llvm \
     -DMLIR_DIR=/workspace/llvm-project/build/lib/cmake/mlir \
     -DMLIR_SOURCE_DIR=/workspace/llvm-project/mlir \
     -DMLIR_BINARY_DIR=/workspace/llvm-project/build \
     -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-std=c++17"
 $ ninja

• Test:

 $ cd ../test
 # a test with detailed middle output
 $ ../build/tools/mlir-neura-opt/mlir-neura-opt --debug test.mlir

 # Or test with lit:
 $ /workspace/llvm-project/build/bin/llvm-lit test.mlir -v
