LLVM Reference Files

These are a copy of the relevant LLVM files that were ported to Rust from the last time that this project was "synced" with LLVM.

Currently that sync point is 20.1.8, commit 87f0227.

These files were originally located at:

• llvm/include/llvm/BinaryFormat/COFF.h
• llvm/include/llvm/Object/Archive.h
• llvm/include/llvm/Object/ArchiveWriter.h
• llvm/include/llvm/Object/COFFImportFile.h
• llvm/include/llvm/Support/Alignment.h
• llvm/include/llvm/Support/MathExtras.h
• llvm/lib/IR/Mangler.cpp
• llvm/lib/Object/ArchiveWriter.cpp
• llvm/lib/Object/COFFImportFile.cpp
• llvm/unittests/IR/ManglerTest.cpp

When syncing, make sure to update these files and the commit above.

Additionally, ar_archive_writer has removed some options, so you can assume:

• deterministic is always true.
• write_symtab is always true.
