%\subsection{Example}
In this section we discuss how to implement the OSR approach of \mysection\ref{se:overview} in LLVM. Our discussion is based on a simple example that illustrates a profile-driven optimization scenario. The IR code shown in this section has been generated with \osrkit, an LLVM-based library we prototyped to support VM builders with a set of abstractions for OSR instrumentation of IR code.
The example we consider is a simple base function {\tt isord} that checks whether an array of numbers is ordered according to some criterion specified by a comparator, as shown in \myfigure\ref{fi:isord-example}. Our goal is to instrument {\tt isort}
with a mechanism that fires an OSR to a faster version if so that, whenever the number of iterations of
a base function {\tt isord} exceeds a certain
threshold. threshold, control is dynamically diverted to a faster version generated on the fly by inlining the comparator.
%To explain how the OSR approach of \mysection\ref{se:overview} can be implemented in LLVM, we consider the simple example of \myfigure\ref{fi:isord-example}. Function {\tt isord} checks whether an array of numbers is ordered according to some criterion specified by a comparator.
