The linker errors caused by this revision have been addressed. Add interceptors for `dispatch_async_and_wait[_f]()` which was added in macOS 10.14. This pair of functions is similar to `dispatch_sync()`, but does not force a context switch of the queue onto the caller thread when the queue is active (and hence is more efficient). For TSan, we can apply the same semantics as for `dispatch_sync()`. From the header docs: > Differences with dispatch_sync() > > When the runtime has brought up a thread to invoke the asynchronous > workitems already submitted to the specified queue, that servicing > thread will also be used to execute synchronous work submitted to the > queue with dispatch_async_and_wait(). > > However, if the runtime has not brought up a thread to service the > specified queue (because it has no workitems enqueued, or only > synchronous workitems), then dispatch_async_and_wait() will invoke the > workitem on the calling thread, similar to the behaviour of functions > in the dispatch_sync family. Additional context: > The guidance is to use `dispatch_async_and_wait()` instead of > `dispatch_sync()` when it is necessary to mix async and sync calls on > the same queue. `dispatch_async_and_wait()` does not guarantee > execution on the caller thread which allows to reduce context switches > when the target queue is active. > https://gist.github.com/tclementdev/6af616354912b0347cdf6db159c37057 rdar://35757961 Reviewed By: kubamracek Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D85854 |

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
This directory and its sub-directories contain source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The README briefly describes how to get started with building LLVM. For more information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.
Getting Started with the LLVM System
Taken from https://llvm.org/docs/GettingStarted.html.
Overview
Welcome to the LLVM project!
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 converts it into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer. It also contains basic regression tests.
C-like languages use the Clang front end. 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.
Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM
The LLVM Getting Started documentation may be out of date. The Clang Getting Started page might have more accurate information.
This is an example work-flow and configuration to get and build the LLVM source:
-
Checkout LLVM (including related sub-projects like Clang):
-
git clone https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git
-
Or, on windows,
git clone --config core.autocrlf=false https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git
-
-
Configure and build LLVM and Clang:
-
cd llvm-project
-
mkdir build
-
cd build
-
cmake -G <generator> [options] ../llvm
Some common build system generators are:
Ninja
--- for generating Ninja build files. Most llvm developers use Ninja.Unix Makefiles
--- for generating make-compatible parallel makefiles.Visual Studio
--- for generating Visual Studio projects and solutions.Xcode
--- for generating Xcode projects.
Some Common options:
-
-DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS='...'
--- semicolon-separated list of the LLVM sub-projects you'd like to additionally build. Can include any of: clang, clang-tools-extra, libcxx, libcxxabi, libunwind, lldb, compiler-rt, lld, polly, or debuginfo-tests.For example, to build LLVM, Clang, libcxx, and libcxxabi, use
-DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;libcxx;libcxxabi"
. -
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=directory
--- Specify for directory the full path name of where you want the LLVM tools and libraries to be installed (default/usr/local
). -
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=type
--- Valid options for type are Debug, Release, RelWithDebInfo, and MinSizeRel. Default is Debug. -
-DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=On
--- Compile with assertion checks enabled (default is Yes for Debug builds, No for all other build types).
-
cmake --build . [-- [options] <target>]
or your build system specified above directly.-
The default target (i.e.
ninja
ormake
) will build all of LLVM. -
The
check-all
target (i.e.ninja check-all
) will run the regression tests to ensure everything is in working order. -
CMake will generate targets for each tool and library, and most LLVM sub-projects generate their own
check-<project>
target. -
Running a serial build will be slow. To improve speed, try running a parallel build. That's done by default in Ninja; for
make
, use the option-j NNN
, whereNNN
is the number of parallel jobs, e.g. the number of CPUs you have.
