Subpackage Descriptions
| primary |
QBE is a compiler backend that aims to provide 70% of the performance of
industrial optimizing compilers in 10% of the code. QBE fosters language
innovation by offering a compact user-friendly and performant backend. The
size limit constrains QBE to focus on the essential and prevents embarking
on a never-ending path of diminishing returns.
The C codebase of QBE is intended to remain hobby-scale and pleasant to
hack on. Despite the small footprint, QBE provides a number of
optimizations with good impact/weight ratio. It also facilitates
integration with foreign systems by implementing the C ABI in full. This
means that programs compiled by QBE can trivially call into C, and vice
versa.
