Add `gen-type-constraint-decls` and `gen-type-constraint-defs`, which generate public C++ functions for type constraints. The name of the C++ function is specified in the `cppFunctionName` field. Type constraints are typically used for op/type/attribute verification. They are also sometimes called from builders and transformations. Until now, this required duplicating the check in C++. Note: This commit just adds the option for type constraints, but attribute constraints could be supported in the same way. Alternatives considered: 1. The C++ functions could also be generated as part of `gen-typedef-decls/defs`, but that can be confusing because type constraints may rely on type definitions from multiple `.td` files. `#include`s could cause duplicate definitions of the same type constraint. 2. The C++ functions could also be generated as static member functions of dialects, but they don't really belong to a dialect. (Because they may rely on type definitions from multiple dialects.)
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.
