I’l do<br class="">that now, and answer the questions along the way. I sent a separate<br class="">email discussing Justin’s patch review feedback.<br class=""><br class="">In the build system today there is no strong distinction between<br class="">‘projects’ and ‘tools’. There are a few subtle differences, but I’m<br class="">not sure any of them really matter. The differences are:<br class=""><br class="">(1) The projects directory is always configured, tools can be disabled<br class="">using LLVM_INCLUDE_TOOLS=Off (projects and tools can both be<br class="">individually disabled too)<br class="">(2) Projects are configured before tools, so tools can rely on targets<br class="">being created for projects (we don’t really use this, and anywhere we<br class="">are is probably a bug)<br class="">(3) Some projects have special handling. For example test-suite isn’t<br class="">actually treated as a project, it has special handling in<br class="">LLVM/CMakeLists.txt:727, and Compiler-RT is handled by clang if you<br class="">set LLVM_BUILD_EXTERNAL_COMPILER_RT=On.<br class=""><br class="">With this in mind I was thinking about the general usability of our<br class="">build system. The distinction between a project and a tool is not very<br class="">clear. At a high level I see three different use cases that are<br class="">covered by our current projects & tools directories.<br class=""><br class="">(1) Projects that are configured with LLVM<br class="">(2) Runtime projects that should be configured using the just-built tools<br class="">(3) The LLVM test-suite, which is really just external tests that<br class="">should be configured and run with the just-built tools<br class=""><br class="">My proposal is that we make the tools subdirectory the *only* place<br class="">for projects that fall into category 1. I don’t think there is any<br class="">technical reason to drop an in-tree project into projects over tools<br class="">today, and I think we migrating people who are doing that away from it<br class="">should be easy.<br class=""><br class="">Second I want to add a “runtimes” directory to LLVM to cover case 2<br class="">(see D20992). The idea behind this is to use common code in LLVM to<br class="">support building runtimes. This will allow the full LLVM toolchain to<br class="">be visible during configuration. I will abstract this functionality<br class="">into an installed CMake module so that Clang can use it for<br class="">out-of-tree clang builds.<br class=""><br class="">Lastly we need to give the test-suite a new home. I’m not super<br class="">concerned with where we do that. It could be under tests, it could<br class="">just be at the root of the LLVM directory. I don’t think it matters<br class="">too much because it is a one-off.
