This patch adds a new document describing the LLVM Qualification Group, modeled after the Security Group documentation. The goal is to create an open working group focused on enabling LLVM use in safety-critical applications, such as those requiring ISO 26262 qualification. The group is intended to be non-enforcing and collaborative, and to act as a public coordination point for contributors working on safety-relevant concerns in LLVM. See: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-proposal-to-establish-a-safety-group-in-llvm/86916 In this review, I’d really appreciate your feedback on both the overall structure and wording, especially if anything could be made clearer, more balanced, or more aligned with LLVM’s values and documentation tone. What feels right? What could be improved to better reflect LLVM community expectations? --------- Co-authored-by: Wendi Urribarri (Woven by Toyota <wendi.urribarri@woven-planet.global>
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
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.
