A CMake change included in CMake 4.0 makes `AIX` into a variable
(similar to `APPLE`, etc.)
ff03db6657
However, `${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME}` unfortunately also expands exactly to
`AIX` and `if` auto-expands variable names in CMake. That means you get
a double expansion if you write:
`if (${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} MATCHES "AIX")`
which becomes:
`if (AIX MATCHES "AIX")`
which is as if you wrote:
`if (ON MATCHES "AIX")`
You can prevent this by quoting the expansion of "${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME}",
due to policy
[CMP0054](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/policy/CMP0054.html#policy:CMP0054)
which is on by default in 4.0+. Most of the LLVM CMake already does
this, but this PR fixes the remaining cases where we do not.
The LLVM/Offload Subproject
The Offload subproject aims at providing tooling, runtimes, and APIs that allow users to execute code on accelerators or other "co-processors" that may or may not match the architecture of their "host". In the long run, all kinds of targets are in scope of this effort, including but not limited to: CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, AI/ML accelerators, distributed resources, etc.
For OpenMP offload users, the project is ready and fully usable. The final API design is still under development. More content will show up here and on our webpage soon. In the meantime, people are encouraged to participate in our meetings (see below) and check our development board as well as the discussions on Discourse.
Meetings
