This patch makes the final major change of the RemoveDIs project, changing the default IR output from debug intrinsics to debug records. This is expected to break a large number of tests: every single one that tests for uses or declarations of debug intrinsics and does not explicitly disable writing records. If this patch has broken your downstream tests (or upstream tests on a configuration I wasn't able to run): 1. If you need to immediately unblock a build, pass `--write-experimental-debuginfo=false` to LLVM's option processing for all failing tests (remember to use `-mllvm` for clang/flang to forward arguments to LLVM). 2. For most test failures, the changes are trivial and mechanical, enough that they can be done by script; see the migration guide for a guide on how to do this: https://llvm.org/docs/RemoveDIsDebugInfo.html#test-updates 3. If any tests fail for reasons other than FileCheck check lines that need updating, such as assertion failures, that is most likely a real bug with this patch and should be reported as such.

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.
