Description Ross Burton 2014-03-25 14:35:53 UTC
There are LLVM recipes in meta-oe.  Should these be integrated directly into oe-core?
Comment 1 Richard Purdie 2014-03-27 15:04:00 UTC
I think this is reaching a conclusion before we've done analysis. I agree that it would be interesting to try building OE-Core with llvm. We may also need this for some of the mesa/GL compiling for qemu.

So this enhancement is about experimenting with llvm usage and if it makes sense putting a case forward for inclusion in OE-Core.
Comment 2 Ross Burton 2014-11-13 16:04:14 UTC
Let's see if we can get this into 1.8.

Marking as a dup of the bug that Khem filed.
