Title: Byte Type: Supporting Raw Data Copies in the LLVM IR

Speaker: Pedro Lobo

Slides: llvm.org/devmtg/2025-10/slides/technical_talks/lobo.pdf

-----

In this talk, we will discuss the challenges of supporting raw data copies in the LLVM IR. We will present a new `byte` type for the LLVM IR, and we will show how it can be used to represent raw data copies in a way that is both efficient and easy to work with. We will also discuss how this new type can be used to improve the performance of a wide range of applications, from image processing to scientific computing.
