The LLVM-customized GTest has a dependency on LLVM to support
`llvm::raw_ostream` and hence has to link to LLVMSupport. The runtimes
use the LLVMSupport from the bootstrapping LLVM build. The problem is
that the boostrapping compiler and the runtimes target can diverge in
their ABI, even in the runtimes default build. For instance, Clang is
built using gcc which uses libstdc++, but the runtimes is built by Clang
which can be configured to use libcxx by default. Altough it does not
use gcc, this issue has caused
[flang-aarch64-libcxx](https://lab.llvm.org/buildbot/#/builders/89)) to
break, and is still (again?) broken.
This patch makes the runtimes' GTest independent from LLVMSupport so we
do not link any runtimes component with LLVM components.
Runtime projects that use GTest unittests:
* flang-rt
* libc
* compiler-rt: Adds `gtest-all.cpp` with
[GTEST_NO_LLVM_SUPPORT=1](f801b6f67e/compiler-rt/CMakeLists.txt (L723))
to each unittest without using `llvm_gtest`. Not touched by this PR.
* openmp: Handled by #159416. Not touched for now by this PR to avoid
conflict.
The current state of this PR tries to reuse
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/third-party/unittest/CMakeLists.txt
as much as possible, altough personally I would prefer to make it use
"modern CMake" style. third-party/unittest/CMakeLists.txt will detect
whether it is used in runtimes build and adjaust accordingly. It creates
a different target for LLVM (`llvm_gtest`, NFCI) and another one for the
runtimes (`runtimes_gtest`). It is not possible to reuse `llvm_gtest`
for both since `llvm_gtest` is imported using `find_package(LLVM)` if
configured using LLVM_INSTALL_GTEST. An alias `default_gtest` is used to
select between the two. `default_gtest` could also be used for openmp
which also supports standalone and
[LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/152189)
build mode.
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
