Summary: There are a few default options that LLVM adds that can be problematic for runtimes builds. These options are generally intended to handle building LLVM itself, but are also added when building in a runtimes mode. One such issue I've run into is that in `libc` we deliberately use `--target` to use a different device toolchain, which doesn't support some linker arguments passed via `-Wl`. This is observed in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/73030 when attempting to use these options. This patch completely removes these default arguments. The consensus is that any issues created by this patch should ultimately be solved on a per-runtime basis.
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.
