cmcc: Carnegie Mellon C Compiler
cmcc is a compact optimizing compiler for ANSI C. The cmcc compiler is our platform for compiler research into debugging optimized code, register allocation, scheduling, and code generation (retargetting the compiler to different architectures). The compiler produces code for RISC machines (MIPS, SPARC) as well as for an LIW machine (iWarp)
cmcc is also a vehicle for research on software construction.
One of our goals is to keep the compiler small
and compact.
Therefore the compiler reuses code --- both internally
(reuse between different modules) and externally (reuse between versions for
different target machines). Key to this reuse are the application frameworks
developed for global data-flow analysis, code generation, instruction
scheduling, and register allocation.
The compiler is written in C++ and has been ported to DEC's C++ compiler, Visual C++, and the GNU C++ compiler (on SUN and DEC systems).
