Can you say a little more about what you meant by "Graal doesn't yet have proper support for multiple, configurable backends."

Yes. However, I've realized that doing the proposed refactoring right now is a little premature given that Graal doesn't yet have proper support for multiple, configurable backends.

Ok, makes sense.

You're not using Eclipse?! ;-)

The dependencies and structure for the HSAIL backend should more closely follow that for the AMD64 backend. The HSAILLIRGenerator class should be in the c.o.graal.lir.hsail project and there should be a HSAILHotSpotLIRGenerator subclass in a c.o.graal.hotspot.hsail project. Only the latter should introduce any HotSpot dependencies. I'm happy to make these refactoring if want.
