Seems to me that trying to upstream is common courtesy before forking. If there is some reason it needs to be integrated with changes to LLVM itself then you might end up with an LLVM fork similar to WebKit/Blink, is that a better outcome?
- sverige 7y agoThe point is that no existing libc is part of the LLVM project; i.e., under that umbrella. What's different about Google wanting their own libc and following what Clang and musl do currently?
- cromwellian 7y agoThe question I have is, is there a legitimate reason for tight integration between a compiler and libc? Perhaps there are very good reasons for them to be designed together. A lot of compilers to this for other languages because it allows them to have special logic around intrinsics for example.
