[llvm-dev] Transfer information IR to binary

[mats petersson via llvm-dev]

What kind of constant: type, value and how is it created?

You can make public symbols that you can extract in a linker script to a
special section.

Or perhaps you want some metadata that a special late state (machine instr)
pass is extracting and adding.

The "best" solution really depends on what you are trying to achieve
overall and what kind of data you are working with.
