Well, MLIR is getting its star turn at the LLVM meeting later this week in Brussels. I've flipped through the MLIR rationale doc and the earlier CGO presentation [1]. Correct me if I'm wrong but MLIR is meant for higher level optimizations which are then lowered to a more LLVM-like dialect for actual codegen. My question is does this mean anything to non-TensorFlow-like backends? Is the aarch64 backend going to change at all?
