Add documentation for Multilib custom flags (#114998) This patch is the fourth step to extend the current multilib system to support the selection of library variants which do not correspond to existing command-line options. Proposal can be found in https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-multilib-custom-flags/81058 The multilib mechanism supports libraries that target code generation or language options such as --target, -mcpu, -mfpu, -mbranch-protection. However, some library variants are particular to features that do not correspond to any command-line options. Examples include variants for multithreading and semihosting. This work introduces a way to instruct the multilib system to consider these features in library selection. This particular patch updates the documentation.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
