-Q: What command line options can I use for OpenMP offloading?
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-``-fopenmp-targets``
-""""""""""""""""""""
-Specify which OpenMP offloading targets should be supported. For example, you 
-may specify ``-fopenmp-targets=amdgcn-amd-amdhsa,nvptx-none``.
-
-``--offload-arch``
-""""""""""""""""""
-Specify the device architecture for OpenMP offloading. For instance 
-``--offload-arch=sm_80`` to target an Nvidia Tesla A100 or 
-``--offload-arch=gfx90a`` to target an AMD Instinct MI250X.
-
-``--offload-device-only``
-"""""""""""""""""""""""""
-Compile the target regions for the device only. All target regions will be 
-compiled for both host and device if not specified.
-
-``--offload-host-device`` or ``--offload-host-only``
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-Compile the target regions for the host only. All target regions will be 
-compiled for both host and device if not specified.
-
-``-Xopenmp-target <arg>``
-"""""""""""""""""""""""""
-Pass an argument to the offloading toolchain, for instance 
-``-Xopenmp-target -march=sm_80``.
-
-``-Xopenmp-target=<triple> <arg>``
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-Pass an argument to the offloading toolchain for the triple. That is especially 
-useful when an argument must 
diff er for each triple. For instance 
-``-Xopenmp-target=nvptx64 --offload-arch=sm_80 
--Xopenmp-target=amdgcn --offload-arch=gfx90a`` to specify the device 
-architecture.
-
-``-Xoffload-linker<triple> <arg>``
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-Pass an argument ``<arg>`` to the offloading linker for the target specified in 
-``<triple>``.
-
-``-foffload-lto=<arg>``
-"""""""""""""""""""""""
-Enable device link time optimization (LTO) and select the LTO mode ``<arg>``. 
-Select either ``-foffload-lto=thin`` or ``-foffload-lto=full``. Thin LTO takes 
-less time while still achieving some performance gains.
-
-``-foffload-lto``
-"""""""""""""""""
-Enable ``full`` link time optimization on the device. This option is equivalent to 
-``-foffload-lto=full``. 
-
-``-fopenmp-offload-mandatory``
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-With this option enabled, a host fallback will not be created for a situation 
-when offloading to the device fails. An example use case of this option is to 
-verify that code is being offloaded to the device.
-
-``-fopenmp-target-debug``
-"""""""""""""""""""""""""
-Enable debugging in the device runtime library (RTL).
-
-``-fno-openmp-target-debug``
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-Disable debugging in the device RTL.
-
-``-fopenmp-target-jit``
-"""""""""""""""""""""""
-Emit code that can be Just-in-Time (JIT) compiled for OpenMP offloading.
-
-``--offload-new-driver``
-""""""""""""""""""""""""
-Use the new driver for offloading compilation. OpenMP offloading can be 
-experimentally linked with CUDA and HIP files. That requires using the new 
-offloading driver.
-
-``--no-offload-new-driver``
-"""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-Do not use the new driver for offloading compilation.
-
-``--offload-link``
-""""""""""""""""""
-Use the new offloading linker to perform the link job. OpenMP offloading can be 
-experimentally linked with CUDA and HIP files. The new offloading linker must be
-used when linking with CUDA or HIP files.
-
-``-nogpulib``
-"""""""""""""
-Do not link the device library for CUDA or HIP device compilation.
-
-``-nogpuinc``
-"""""""""""""
-Do not include the default CUDA or HIP headers, and do not add CUDA or HIP
-include paths.

-Q: Why is my build taking a long time?
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-When installing OpenMP and other LLVM components, the build time on multicore 
-systems can be significantly reduced with parallel build jobs. As suggested in 
-*LLVM Techniques, Tips, and Best Practices*, one could consider using `ninja` as the
-generator. This can be done with the CMake option `cmake -G Ninja`. Afterward, 
-use `ninja install` and specify the number of parallel jobs with `-j`. The build
-time can also be reduced by setting the build type to `Release ` with the 
-`CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE` option. Recompilation can also be sped up by caching previous
-compilations. Consider enabling `Ccache` with 
-`CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache`.
