The new Darwin backend for LLD is now able to link reasonably large real-world programs on x86_64. For instance, we have achieved self-hosting for the X86_64 target, where all LLD tests pass when building lld with itself on macOS. As such, we would like to make it the default back-end. The new port is now named `ld64.lld`, and the old port remains accessible as `ld64.lld.darwinold` This [annoucement email][1] has some context. (But note that, unlike what the email says, we are no longer doing this as part of the LLVM 12 branch cut -- instead we will go into LLVM 13.) Numerous mechanical test changes were required to make this change; in the interest of creating something that's reviewable on Phabricator, I've split out the boring changes into a separate diff (D95905). I plan to merge its contents with those in this diff before landing. (@gkm made the original draft of this diff, and he has agreed to let me take over.)

//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// // C Language Family Front-end //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// Welcome to Clang. This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages (C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM compiler infrastructure project. Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of different source-level tools. One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer. If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read the relevant web sites. Here are some pointers: Information on Clang: http://clang.llvm.org/ Building and using Clang: http://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html Clang Static Analyzer: http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/ Information on the LLVM project: http://llvm.org/ If you have questions or comments about Clang, a great place to discuss them is on the Clang development mailing list: http://lists.llvm.org/mailman/listinfo/cfe-dev If you find a bug in Clang, please file it in the LLVM bug tracker: http://llvm.org/bugs/
