3. Information about the python38-llvmlite package on openSuSE Tumbleweed

Information for package python38-llvmlite:
------------------------------------------
Repository : openSUSE-Tumbleweed-Oss
Name : python38-llvmlite
Version : 0.37.0-1.1
Arch : x86_64
Vendor : openSUSE
Installed Size : 979,8 KiB
Installed : No
Status : not installed
Source package : python-llvmlite-0.37.0-1.1.src
Summary : Lightweight wrapper around basic LLVM functionality
Description :
A lightweight LLVM python binding for writing JIT compilers
The old llvmpy binding exposes a lot of LLVM APIs but the mapping of
C++-style memory management to Python is error prone. Numba_ and many JIT
compilers do not need a full LLVM API. Only the IR builder, optimizer,
and JIT compiler APIs are necessary.
llvmlite is a project originally tailored for Numba's needs, using the
following approach:
* A small C wrapper around the parts of the LLVM C++ API we need that are
not already exposed by the LLVM C API.
* A ctypes Python wrapper around the C API.
* A pure Python implementation of the subset of the LLVM IR builder that we
need for Numba.
