[llvm-dev] LLVM 9.0.0 prebuilt binaries for MacOS

[Tobias Hieta via llvm-dev]

Hello Vedant,

I was going through this process on my Mac and it seems like this
script still relies on svn. There is a note that you can symlink the
llvm.src folder yourself - but that ended up generating a phase 1
without clang - so I am guessing it doesn't understand the mono-repo
layout.

Since the move to git is really close now we should make updates to
this script to use git instead. Is someone working on that?

Thanks,
Tobias

The testing process should be fully documented here (https://llvm.org/docs/ReleaseProcess.html), and there's additional information about the qualification effort here (https://llvm.org/docs/HowToReleaseLLVM.html). The basic steps are to a) run the "test-release" script (this does a multi-stage build and runs tests), b) look for test and benchmark regressions, and c) share progress on the release-testers at lists.llvm.org mailing list. Once you have a package ready, you'll need to ask for permission to upload the package, then publish its hash on the release-testers list.
