It's my great pleasure to announce that LLVM 9 is now available.

Get it here: https://llvm.org/releases/download.html#9.0.0

This release is the result of the LLVM community's work over the past
six months (up to trunk r366426 plus commits on the branch). Some
highlights include:

- Support for asm goto, enabling for example the mainline Linux kernel
  for x86_64 to build with Clang
- The RISCV-V target is no longer experimental, but built by default
- Experimental support for C++ for OpenCL

as well as many bug fixes, optimizations, and diagnostics improvements.

For more details, see the release notes:
