[LLVMdev] Can clang generate the same bitcode with the toolchains that have same version of libraries but different targets

[Kenia Kuo]

Hi Óscar,

Thank you for your reply.

It looks like the limitations are the platform's API and ABI (included the
size of variable).
So, if there are two platforms that have the same API, ABI but different
ISAs, the bitcode can be shared. Can I say that?

Thanks,
Kenia Kuo
