1. The PR proceeds with a backend target hook to allow front-ends to determine what target features are available in a compilation based on the CPU name. 2. Fix a backend target feature bug that supports HTM for Power8/9/10/11. However, HTM is only supported on Power8/9 according to the ISA. 3. All target features that are hardcoded in PPC.cpp can be retrieved from the backend target feature. I have double-checked that the hardcoded logic for inferring target features from the CPU in the frontend(PPC.cpp) is the same as in PPC.td. The reland patch addressed the comment https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/137670#discussion_r2143541120
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.
