[AArch64] FEAT_SPEv1p2 is optional in v8.7-A and v9.2-A (#123336) The FEAT_SPEv1p2 feature (known to LLVM as FeatureSPE_EEF and +spe-eef) was incorrectly marked as a required feature of Armv8.7-A (and later), which is incorrect because it is optional, and some CPUs do not implement it. This moves it to the default features list, so that it is still enabled by -march=armv8.7-a, but can be configured individually for each processor. For Cortex-A520 and Cortex-A520AE, I've checked that these do not have any of the FEAT_SPE* features, so updated the tests accordingly. All other Arm-designed v8.7A+ and v9.2A+ CPUs should continue to have it enabled. For Ampere1B and Fujitsu Monaka, these CPUs do not have the feature, so I've removed it from their tests. For Apple M4, I haven't found any reference for whether that CPU should have this feature, so I've added it to the CPU definition to avoid this being a functional change.
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.
