## Purpose
This patch is one in a series of code-mods that annotate LLVM’s public
interface for export. This patch annotates the `llvm/ExecutionEngine`
library. These annotations currently have no meaningful impact on the
LLVM build; however, they are a prerequisite to support an LLVM Windows
DLL (shared library) build.
## Background
This effort is tracked in #109483. Additional context is provided in
[this
discourse](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/psa-annotating-llvm-public-interface/85307),
and documentation for `LLVM_ABI` and related annotations is found in the
LLVM repo
[here](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/llvm/docs/InterfaceExportAnnotations.rst).
The bulk of these changes were generated automatically using the
[Interface Definition Scanner (IDS)](https://github.com/compnerd/ids)
tool, followed formatting with `git clang-format`.
The following manual adjustments were also applied after running IDS on
Linux:
- Add `LLVM_ABI_FRIEND` to friend member functions declared with
`LLVM_ABI`
- Add `LLVM_ABI` to a subset of private class methods and fields that
require export
- Add `LLVM_ABI` to a small number of symbols that require export but
are not declared in headers
- Add `LLVM_ABI` to a number of `extern "C"` methods that IDS missed
because they're implicitly exported
## Validation
Local builds and tests to validate cross-platform compatibility. This
included llvm, clang, and lldb on the following configurations:
- Windows with MSVC
- Windows with Clang
- Linux with GCC
- Linux with Clang
- Darwin with Clang
