[Clang] [MinGW] Handle `-nolibc` argument (#182062) This implementation differs from GCC, but arguably more in line with Unix systems, because it stops linking of default Win32 system libraries. On GCC it works like this: ``` ❯ /ucrt64/bin/gcc -### /dev/null -nolibc 2>&1 | tr ' ' '\n' | rg '^\-l' | sort -u -lgcc -lgcc_eh -lkernel32 -lmingw32 -lmingwex -lmsvcrt ❯ /ucrt64/bin/gcc -### /dev/null 2>&1 | tr ' ' '\n' | rg '^\-l' | sort -u -ladvapi32 -lgcc -lgcc_eh -lkernel32 -lmingw32 -lmingwex -lmsvcrt -lpthread -lshell32 -luser32 ``` Clang with this PR: ``` ❯ ./bin/clang -### /dev/null -nolibc 2>&1 | tr ' ' '\n' | rg '^"\-l' | sort -u "-lgcc" "-lgcc_eh" ``` The motivation for supporting this argument comes from Rust, which wants to control what is linked, but still utilize compiler builtins. With GCC that is done by supplying `-nodefaultlibs` and `-lgcc`, but LLVM's compiler-rt cannot be added back as easily. `-nolibc --unwindlib=none` that skips Win32 libs would give the parity with GCC's `-nodefaultlibs -lgcc`.
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.
