DiagnosticInfo: Clean up usage of DiagnosticInfoInlineAsm (#119485) Currently LLVMContext::emitError emits any error as an "inline asm" error which does not make any sense. InlineAsm appears to be special, in that it uses a "LocCookie" from srcloc metadata, which looks like a parallel mechanism to ordinary source line locations. This meant that other types of failures had degraded source information reported when available. Introduce some new generic error types, and only use inline asm in the appropriate contexts. The DiagnosticInfo types are still a bit of a mess, and I'm not sure why DiagnosticInfoWithLocationBase exists instead of just having an optional DiagnosticLocation in the base class. DK_Generic is for any error that derives from an IR level instruction, and thus can pull debug locations directly from it. DK_GenericWithLoc is functionally the generic codegen error, since it does not depend on the IR and instead can construct a DiagnosticLocation from the MI debug location.
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.
