I have prepared some patches for LLVM OpenMP runtime, mostly addressing ARMv8 support. Before I upstream them, I must address legal issues that arose around my planned contribution. I was advised that before I send any substantial commit, I need to make sure that LICENSE.txt file in the projects repository contains a statement submitted by ARM, similar to the one provided by Intel (see "a license agreement from the copyright/patent holders"). This is the same situation as with top-level LLVM project: ARM has provided the same statement in http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk/lib/Target/ARM/LICENSE.TXT file.

+   by ARM that are necessarily infringed by ARM's Software alone or by
+   combination of the Software with the Work to which such Software was
+   submitted. If any entity institutes patent litigation against ARM or any
+   other entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging
+   that ARM's Software, or the Work to which ARM has contributed constitutes
+   direct or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted
+   to that entity under this Agreement for the Software or Work shall terminate
+   as of the date such litigation is filed.
