- either be absolute or relative to the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. Defaults to
- `share/doc/llvm/ocaml-html`.
-
-**LLVM_CREATE_XCODE_TOOLCHAIN**:BOOL
- macOS Only: If enabled CMake will generate a target named
- 'install-xcode-toolchain'. This target will create a directory at
- $CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/Toolchains containing an xctoolchain directory which can
- be used to override the default system tools.
-
-**LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB**:BOOL
- If enabled, the target for building the libLLVM shared library is added.
- This library contains all of LLVM's components in a single shared library.
- Defaults to OFF. This cannot be used in conjunction with BUILD_SHARED_LIBS.
- Tools will only be linked to the libLLVM shared library if LLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB
- is also ON.
- The components in the library can be customised by setting LLVM_DYLIB_COMPONENTS
- to a list of the desired components.
- This option is not available on Windows.
-
**LLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB**:BOOL
If enabled, tools will be linked with the libLLVM shared library. Defaults
to OFF. Setting LLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB to ON also sets LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB
to ON.
This option is not available on Windows.
-**BUILD_SHARED_LIBS**:BOOL
- Flag indicating if each LLVM component (e.g. Support) is built as a shared
- library (ON) or as a static library (OFF). Its default value is OFF. On
- Windows, shared libraries may be used when building with MinGW, including
- mingw-w64, but not when building with the Microsoft toolchain.
+**LLVM_LIT_ARGS**:STRING
+ Arguments given to lit. ``make check`` and ``make clang-test`` are affected.
+ By default, ``'-sv --no-progress-bar'`` on Visual C++ and Xcode, ``'-sv'`` on
+ others.
- .. note:: BUILD_SHARED_LIBS is only recommended for use by LLVM developers.
- If you want to build LLVM as a shared library, you should use the
- ``LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB`` option.
+**LLVM_LIT_TOOLS_DIR**:PATH
+ The path to GnuWin32 tools for tests. Valid on Windows host. Defaults to
+ the empty string, in which case lit will look for tools needed for tests
+ (e.g. ``grep``, ``sort``, etc.) in your %PATH%. If GnuWin32 is not in your
+ %PATH%, then you can set this variable to the GnuWin32 directory so that
+ lit can find tools needed for tests in that directory.
**LLVM_OPTIMIZED_TABLEGEN**:BOOL
If enabled and building a debug or asserts build the CMake build system will
during the build. Enabling this option can significantly speed up build times
especially when building LLVM in Debug configurations.
+**LLVM_PARALLEL_COMPILE_JOBS**:STRING
+ Define the maximum number of concurrent compilation jobs.
+
+**LLVM_PARALLEL_LINK_JOBS**:STRING
+ Define the maximum number of concurrent link jobs.
+
+**LLVM_PROFDATA_FILE**:PATH
+ Path to a profdata file to pass into clang's -fprofile-instr-use flag. This
+ can only be specified if you're building with clang.
+
**LLVM_REVERSE_ITERATION**:BOOL
If enabled, all supported unordered llvm containers would be iterated in
reverse order. This is useful for uncovering non-determinism caused by
iteration of unordered containers.
-**LLVM_BUILD_INSTRUMENTED_COVERAGE**:BOOL
- If enabled, `source-based code coverage
- <https://clang.llvm.org/docs/SourceBasedCodeCoverage.html>`_ instrumentation
- is enabled while building llvm.
+**LLVM_STATIC_LINK_CXX_STDLIB**:BOOL
+ Statically link to the C++ standard library if possible. This uses the flag
+ "-static-libstdc++", but a Clang host compiler will statically link to libc++
+ if used in conjunction with the **LLVM_ENABLE_LIBCXX** flag. Defaults to OFF.
-**LLVM_CCACHE_BUILD**:BOOL
- If enabled and the ``ccache`` program is available, then LLVM will be
- built using ``ccache`` to speed up rebuilds of LLVM and its components.
- Defaults to OFF. The size and location of the cache maintained
- by ``ccache`` can be adjusted via the LLVM_CCACHE_MAXSIZE and LLVM_CCACHE_DIR
- options, which are passed to the CCACHE_MAXSIZE and CCACHE_DIR environment
- variables, respectively.
+**LLVM_TABLEGEN**:STRING
+ Full path to a native TableGen executable (usually named ``llvm-tblgen``). This is
+ intended for cross-compiling: if the user sets this variable, no native
+ TableGen will be created.
-**LLVM_FORCE_USE_OLD_TOOLCHAIN**:BOOL
- If enabled, the compiler and standard library versions won't be checked. LLVM
- may not compile at all, or might fail at runtime due to known bugs in these
- toolchains.
+**LLVM_TARGET_ARCH**:STRING
+ LLVM target to use for native code generation. This is required for JIT
+ generation. It defaults to "host", meaning that it shall pick the architecture
+ of the machine where LLVM is being built. If you are cross-compiling, set it
+ to the target architecture name.
+
+**LLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD**:STRING
+ Semicolon-separated list of targets to build, or *all* for building all
+ targets. Case-sensitive. Defaults to *all*. Example:
+ ``-DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="X86;PowerPC"``.
**LLVM_TEMPORARILY_ALLOW_OLD_TOOLCHAIN**:BOOL
If enabled, the compiler version check will only warn when using a toolchain
which is about to be deprecated, instead of emitting an error.
+**LLVM_UBSAN_FLAGS**:STRING
+ Defines the set of compile flags used to enable UBSan. Only used if
+ ``LLVM_USE_SANITIZER`` contains ``Undefined``. This can be used to override
+ the default set of UBSan flags.
+
+**LLVM_USE_CRT_{target}**:STRING
+ On Windows, tells which version of the C runtime library (CRT) should be used.
+ For example, -DLLVM_USE_CRT_RELEASE=MT would statically link the CRT into the
+ LLVM tools and library.
+
+**LLVM_USE_INTEL_JITEVENTS**:BOOL
+ Enable building support for Intel JIT Events API. Defaults to OFF.
+
+**LLVM_USE_LINKER**:STRING
+ Add ``-fuse-ld={name}`` to the link invocation. The possible value depend on
+ your compiler, for clang the value can be an absolute path to your custom
+ linker, otherwise clang will prefix the name with ``ld.`` and apply its usual
+ search. For example to link LLVM with the Gold linker, cmake can be invoked
+ with ``-DLLVM_USE_LINKER=gold``.
+
**LLVM_USE_NEWPM**:BOOL
If enabled, use the experimental new pass manager.
-**LLVM_ENABLE_BINDINGS**:BOOL
- If disabled, do not try to build the OCaml and go bindings.
+**LLVM_USE_OPROFILE**:BOOL
+ Enable building OProfile JIT support. Defaults to OFF.
-**LLVM_ENABLE_Z3_SOLVER**:BOOL
- If enabled, the Z3 constraint solver is activated for the Clang static analyzer.
- A recent version of the z3 library needs to be available on the system.
+**LLVM_USE_PERF**:BOOL
+ Enable building support for Perf (linux profiling tool) JIT support. Defaults to OFF.
+
+**LLVM_USE_RELATIVE_PATHS_IN_FILES**:BOOL
+ Rewrite absolute source paths in sources and debug info to relative ones. The
+ source prefix can be adjusted via the LLVM_SOURCE_PREFIX variable.
**LLVM_USE_RELATIVE_PATHS_IN_DEBUG_INFO**:BOOL
Rewrite absolute source paths in debug info to relative ones. The source prefix
can be adjusted via the LLVM_SOURCE_PREFIX variable.
-**LLVM_USE_RELATIVE_PATHS_IN_FILES**:BOOL
- Rewrite absolute source paths in sources and debug info to relative ones. The
- source prefix can be adjusted via the LLVM_SOURCE_PREFIX variable.
+**LLVM_USE_SANITIZER**:STRING
+ Define the sanitizer used to build LLVM binaries and tests. Possible values
+ are ``Address``, ``Memory``, ``MemoryWithOrigins``, ``Undefined``, ``Thread``,
+ ``DataFlow``, and ``Address;Undefined``. Defaults to empty string.
-**LLVM_INSTALL_UTILS**:BOOL
- If enabled, utility binaries like ``FileCheck`` and ``not`` will be installed
- to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.
+**SPHINX_EXECUTABLE**:STRING
+ The path to the ``sphinx-build`` executable detected by CMake.
+ For installation instructions, see
+ https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/installation.html
+
+**SPHINX_OUTPUT_HTML**:BOOL
+ If enabled (and ``LLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX`` is enabled) then the targets for
+ building the documentation as html are added (but not built by default unless
+ ``LLVM_BUILD_DOCS`` is enabled). There is a target for each project in the
+ source tree that uses sphinx (e.g. ``docs-llvm-html``, ``docs-clang-html``
+ and ``docs-lld-html``). Defaults to ON.
+
+**SPHINX_OUTPUT_MAN**:BOOL
+ If enabled (and ``LLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX`` is enabled) the targets for building
+ the man pages are added (but not built by default unless ``LLVM_BUILD_DOCS``
+ is enabled). Currently the only target added is ``docs-llvm-man``. Defaults
+ to ON.
+
+**SPHINX_WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS**:BOOL
+ If enabled then sphinx documentation warnings will be treated as
+ errors. Defaults to ON.
