Add a SUBDIR_PARALLEL option to bsd.subdir.mk, to allow make to process
all the SUBDIR entries in parallel, instead of serially. Apply this
option to a selected number of Makefiles, which can greatly speed up the
build on multi-core machines, when using make -j.
This can be extended to more Makefiles later on, whenever they are
verified to work correctly with parallel building.
I tested this on a 24-core machine, with make -j48 buildworld (N = 6):
before stddev after stddev
======= ====== ======= ======
real time 1741.1 16.5 959.8 2.7
user time 12468.7 16.4 14393.0 16.8
sys time 1825.0 54.8 2110.6 22.8
(user+sys)/real 8.2 17.1
E.g. the build was approximately 45% faster in real time. On machines
with less cores, or with lower -j settings, the speedup will not be as
impressive. But at least you can now almost max out a machine with
buildworld!

MFC r263833:
Enable parallel building for gnu/usr.bin and usr.bin/clang too.
Merge the projects/clang-sparc64 branch back to head. This brings in
several updates from the llvm and clang trunks to make the sparc64
backend fully functional.
Apart from one patch to sys/sparc64/include/pcpu.h which is still under
discussion, this makes it possible to let clang fully build world and
kernel for sparc64.
Any assistance with testing this on actual sparc64 hardware is greatly
appreciated, as there will unavoidably be bugs left.
Many thanks go to Roman Divacky for his upstream work on getting the
sparc64 backend into shape.
MFC r262985:
Repair a few minor mismerges from r262261 in the clang-sparc64 project
branch. This is also to minimize differences with upstream.
Upgrade our copy of llvm/clang to 3.4 release. This version supports
all of the features in the current working draft of the upcoming C++
standard, provisionally named C++1y.
The code generator's performance is greatly increased, and the loop
auto-vectorizer is now enabled at -Os and -O2 in addition to -O3. The
PowerPC backend has made several major improvements to code generation
quality and compile time, and the X86, SPARC, ARM32, Aarch64 and SystemZ
backends have all seen major feature work.

Update lldb for clang/llvm 3.4 import
This commit largely restores the lldb source to the upstream r196259
snapshot with the addition of threaded inferior support and a few bug
fixes.

Fix mismerge in r262121
A break statement was lost in the merge. The error had no functional
impact, but restore it to reduce the diff against upstream.
MFC 262303:
Pull in r197521 from upstream clang trunk (by rdivacky):
Use the integrated assembler by default on FreeBSD/ppc and ppc64.
Requested by: jhibbits
MFC 262611:
Pull in r196874 from upstream llvm trunk:
Fix a crash that occurs when PWD is invalid.
MCJIT needs to be able to run in hostile environments, even when PWD
is invalid. There's no need to crash MCJIT in this case.
The obvious fix is to simply leave MCContext's CompilationDir empty
when PWD can't be determined. This way, MCJIT clients,
and other clients that link with LLVM don't need a valid working directory.
If we do want to guarantee valid CompilationDir, that should be done
only for clients of getCompilationDir(). This is as simple as checking
for an empty string.
The only current use of getCompilationDir is EmitGenDwarfInfo, which
won't conceivably run with an invalid working dir. However, in the
purely hypothetically and untestable case that this happens, the
AT_comp_dir will be omitted from the compilation_unit DIE.
This should help fix assertions occurring with ports-mgmt/tinderbox,
when it is using jails, and sometimes invalidates clang's current
working directory.

Pull in r203007 from upstream clang trunk:
Don't produce an alias between destructors with different calling conventions.
Fixes pr19007.
(Please note that is an LLVM PR identifier, not a FreeBSD one.)
This should fix Firefox and/or libxul crashes (due to problems with
regparm/stdcall calling conventions) on i386.

PR: bin/187103
MFC 263048:
Repair recognition of "CC" as an alias for the C++ compiler, since it
was silently broken by upstream for a Windows-specific use-case.
Apparently some versions of CMake still rely on this archaic feature...
Reported by: rakuco
MFC 263049:
Garbage collect the old way of adding the libstdc++ include directories
in clang's InitHeaderSearch.cpp. This has been superseded by David
Chisnall's commit in r255321.
Moreover, if libc++ is used, the libstdc++ include directories should
not be in the search path at all. These directories are now only used
if you pass -stdlib=libstdc++.
This connects LLDB to the build, but it is disabled by default. Add
WITH_LLDB= to src.conf to build it.
Note that LLDB requires a C++11 compiler so is disabled on platforms
using GCC.

upcoming 3.3 release (branching and freezing expected in a few weeks).
Preliminary release notes can be found at the usual location:
<http://llvm.org/docs/ReleaseNotes.html>
An MFC is planned once the actual 3.3 release is finished.
Dont use/link ARCMT, StaticAnalyzer and Rewriter to clang when the user
specifies not to. Dont build ASTMatchers with Rewriter disabled and
StaticAnalyzer when it's disabled.
Without all those three, the clang binary shrinks (x86_64) from ~36MB
to ~32MB (unstripped).
To disable these clang components, and get a smaller clang binary built
and installed, set WITHOUT_CLANG_FULL in src.conf(5). During the
initial stages of buildworld, those extra components are already
disabled automatically, to save some build time.
MFC after: 1 week
installs clang as /usr/bin/cc, /usr/bin/c++ and /usr/bin/cpp.
Note this does *not* disable building and installing gcc, which will
still be available as /usr/bin/gcc, /usr/bin/g++ and /usr/bin/gcpp. If
you want to disable gcc completely, you must use WITHOUT_GCC.
MFC after: 2 weeks
-fno-rtti. The clang libaries that really use exceptions and virtual
functions can enable LLVM_REQUIRES_EH and LLVM_REQUIRES_RTTI
respectively. This saves space on the resulting binaries and follows
what's being done upstream.

This commit merges the latest LLVM sources from the vendor space. It
also updates the build glue to match the new sources. Clang's version
number is changed to match LLVM's, which means /usr/include/clang/2.0
has been renamed to /usr/include/clang/2.8.
