CUDA Support
^^^^^^^^^^^^
PowerPC Support
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Add `__dmr1024` type for Dense Math Facility.
* Add prototype for Dense Math Facility integer calculation builtins.
AIX Support
^^^^^^^^^^^
* Fixed `-print-runtime-dir` to fallback to the target subdirectory (rather than OS subdirectory) if the runtime path is not found.
* Fixed `-print-runtime-dir` to find the correct runtime path if the triple has "unknown" as the environment component.
* Changed AIX targets to use the per-target runtime directories for compiler runtimes (i.e. `lib/clang/20/lib/aix` became `lib/clang/21/lib/powerpc-ibm-aix` and `clang/21/lib/powerpc64-ibm-aix`).
NetBSD Support
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Changes to the PowerPC Backend
------------------------------
* Add spill and restore for DMR and DMRp registers.
* Prototype various Dense Math Facility instructions, and intrinsics for basic enablement, insert/extract, integer and FP calculations.
* Add prototype for Dense Math Facility cryptography instructions.
* Implement load/stores prototype for v1024i1, v2048i1.
* Support conversion between f16 and f128.
* Change default for auto gen stxvp for cpu=future.
* Setup initial JITLink build support for XCOFF.
* Add an API to derive the default feature set from a CPU name within the TargetParser
(e.g. `pwr10` -> `+vsx`,`+isa3_1`,`+mma`). Clang now uses this to populate the `target-feature`
list when `-mcpu` is provided for PowerPC.
* Various bug fixes and codegen improvements.

* Removed -mattr=+no-rvc-hints that could be used to disable parsing and generation of RVC hints.
* Adds assembler support for the Andes `XAndesvsintload` (Andes Vector INT4 Load extension).
* Adds assembler support for the Andes `XAndesbfhcvt` (Andes Scalar BFLOAT16 Conversion extension).
* Add combine for shadd family of instructions.
