The LLVM python bindings are defunct. They have not seen any substantial active development since 2014. The version number, which is used to find the libLLVM-NN.so library, has not been updated since LLVM 10.0 (2019) (and even then they were probably mostly broken) After fixing the version number to be able to run them at all, a large number of tests in the test suite fails. Already in 2017 the removal was discussed: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/is-anyone-using-still-using-the-python-bindings/46063 https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-August/116857.html There exist external projects providing python bindings for LLVM, e.g: https://github.com/numba/llvmlite Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D150642
This directory contains bindings for the LLVM compiler infrastructure to allow programs written in languages other than C or C++ to take advantage of the LLVM infrastructure--for instance, a self-hosted compiler front-end.
