[llvm][docs] MemTagSanitizer is only supported on AArch64 Android (#120545) ``` $ ./bin/clang /tmp/test.c -o /tmp/test.o -target aarch64-linux -march=armv8+memtag -fsanitize=memtag-stack clang: error: unsupported option '-fsanitize=memtag*' for target 'aarch64-unknown-linux' ``` But this works: ``` $ ./bin/clang /tmp/test.c -o /tmp/test.o --target=aarch64-linux-android -march=armv8+memtag -fsanitize=memtag-stack ``` Due to this check in Clang: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/2210da3b823ccf21fc634c858827c9f12c864b51/clang/lib/Driver/ToolChains/CommonArgs.cpp#L1651 Likely because the required notes and dynamic loader support only exist for Android. You can get around this, sort of, by not linking the file. However this means you have to provide your own way of loading it, so it doesn't change the statement that this feature is Android only. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/64692 also confirms that the intent is to only support Android at this time. And while I'm here, suggest an additive set of flags that can also be used.
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.
