Since the LMUL data that is needed to create an instrument is avaliable statically from vsetivli and vsetvli instructions, LMUL instruments can be automatically generated so that clients of the tool do no need to manually insert instrument comments. Instrument comments may be placed after a vset{i}vli instruction, which will override instrument that was automatically inserted. As a result, clients of llvm-mca instruments do not need to update their existing instrument comments. However, if the instrument has the same LMUL as the vset{i}vli, then it is reccomended to remove the instrument comment as it becomes redundant.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
