You can view the code here:

https://github.com/dibyendumajumdar/ravi/blob/master/include/ravi_llvmcodegen.h
https://github.com/dibyendumajumdar/ravi/blob/master/src/ravi_llvmjit.cpp

Just look for USE_ORCv2_JIT

The code is messy but that is because LLVM's api keeps changing from
version to version, causing huge issues for users.
