LLVM/MLIR Meetup Bristol
Join us for the inaugural LLVM Project Meetup in Bristol, a fantastic opportunity to connect with fellow developers and dive into the world of LLVM! We're kicking things off with an engaging talk followed by a relaxed social to network and share ideas with food and refreshments.
Talk: Understanding MLIR Crash Reproducers: Debugging, Application, and Best Practices
Speaker: Artemiy Bulavin
MLIR crash reproducers are a powerful tool for efficiently diagnosing errors in your pass pipeline. This talk will explore their purpose, how they are generated, and best practices for leveraging them to streamline debugging, especially with custom dialects. Whether you're new to MLIR or a seasoned developer, you'll gain practical insights to enhance your workflow.
