LLVM IR Generation

How Python constructs are lowered to LLVM intermediate representation.

Published May 30, 2026

Control Flow

Python if/else, loops, and exceptions become LLVM branches and blocks.

Object Model

Python objects are represented with Pyvorin runtime structs.

Runtime Calls

Operations on dicts, lists, and strings call into the Pyvorin runtime library.

Inline Caches

Attribute lookups and method calls use inline caching for speed.
