    This section lists changes to the LLVM development infrastructure. This +mostly impacts users who actively work on LLVM or follow development on +mainline, but may also impact users who leverage the LLVM build infrastructure +or are interested in LLVM qualification.

    + +
      +
    • The default for make check is now to use + the lit testing tool, which is + part of LLVM itself. You can use lit directly as well, or use + the llvm-lit tool which is created as part of a Makefile or CMake + build (and knows how to find the appropriate tools). See the lit + documentation and the blog + post, and PR5217 + for more information.
    • + +
    • The LLVM test-suite infrastructure has a new "simple" test format + (make TEST=simple). The new format is intended to require only a + compiler and not a full set of LLVM tools. This makes it useful for testing + released compilers, for running the test suite with other compilers (for + performance comparisons), and makes sure that we are testing the compiler as + users would see it. The new format is also designed to work using reference + outputs instead of comparison to a baseline compiler, which makes it run much + faster and makes it less system dependent.
    • + +
    • Significant progress has been made on a new interface to running the + LLVM test-suite (aka the LLVM "nightly tests") using + the LNT infrastructure. The LNT + interface to the test-suite brings significantly improved reporting + capabilities for monitoring the correctness and generated code quality + produced by LLVM over time.
