Currently there are 4 different mechanisms for controlling denormal flushing behavior, and about as many equivalent frontend controls. - AMDGPU uses the fp32-denormals and fp64-f16-denormals subtarget features - NVPTX uses the nvptx-f32ftz attribute - ARM directly uses the denormal-fp-math attribute - Other targets indirectly use denormal-fp-math in one DAGCombine - cl-denorms-are-zero has a corresponding denorms-are-zero attribute AMDGPU wants a distinct control for f32 flushing from f16/f64, and as far as I can tell the same is true for NVPTX (based on the attribute name). Work on consolidating these into the denormal-fp-math attribute, and a new type specific denormal-fp-math-f32 variant. Only ARM seems to support the two different flush modes, so this is overkill for the other use cases. Ideally we would error on the unsupported positive-zero mode on other targets from somewhere. Move the logic for selecting the flush mode into the compiler driver, instead of handling it in cc1. denormal-fp-math/denormal-fp-math-f32 are now both cc1 flags, but denormal-fp-math-f32 is not yet exposed as a user flag. -cl-denorms-are-zero, -fcuda-flush-denormals-to-zero and -fno-cuda-flush-denormals-to-zero will be mapped to -fp-denormal-math-f32=ieee or preserve-sign rather than the old attributes. Stop emitting the denorms-are-zero attribute for the OpenCL flag. It has no in-tree users. The meaning would also be target dependent, such as the AMDGPU choice to treat this as only meaning allow flushing of f32 and not f16 or f64. The naming is also potentially confusing, since DAZ in other contexts refers to instructions implicitly treating input denormals as zero, not necessarily flushing output denormals to zero. This also does not attempt to change the behavior for the current attribute. The LangRef now states that the default is ieee behavior, but this is inaccurate for the current implementation. The clang handling is slightly hacky to avoid touching the existing denormal-fp-math uses. Fixing this will be left for a future patch. AMDGPU is still using the subtarget feature to control the denormal mode, but the new attribute are now emitted. A future change will switch this and remove the subtarget features. |

LLVM Documentation
==================
LLVM's documentation is written in reStructuredText, a lightweight
plaintext markup language (file extension `.rst`). While the
reStructuredText documentation should be quite readable in source form, it
is mostly meant to be processed by the Sphinx documentation generation
system to create HTML pages which are hosted on <http://llvm.org/docs/> and
updated after every commit. Manpage output is also supported, see below.
If you instead would like to generate and view the HTML locally, install
Sphinx <http://sphinx-doc.org/> and then do:
cd <build-dir>
cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX=true -DSPHINX_OUTPUT_HTML=true <src-dir>
make -j3 docs-llvm-html
$BROWSER <build-dir>/docs//html/index.html
The mapping between reStructuredText files and generated documentation is
`docs/Foo.rst` <-> `<build-dir>/docs//html/Foo.html` <-> `http://llvm.org/docs/Foo.html`.
If you are interested in writing new documentation, you will want to read
`SphinxQuickstartTemplate.rst` which will get you writing documentation
very fast and includes examples of the most important reStructuredText
markup syntax.
Manpage Output
===============
Building the manpages is similar to building the HTML documentation. The
primary difference is to use the `man` makefile target, instead of the
default (which is `html`). Sphinx then produces the man pages in the
directory `<build-dir>/docs/man/`.
cd <build-dir>
cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX=true -DSPHINX_OUTPUT_MAN=true <src-dir>
make -j3 docs-llvm-man
man -l >build-dir>/docs/man/FileCheck.1
The correspondence between .rst files and man pages is
`docs/CommandGuide/Foo.rst` <-> `<build-dir>/docs//man/Foo.1`.
These .rst files are also included during HTML generation so they are also
viewable online (as noted above) at e.g.
`http://llvm.org/docs/CommandGuide/Foo.html`.
Checking links
==============
The reachability of external links in the documentation can be checked by
running:
cd docs/
make -f Makefile.sphinx linkcheck
Doxygen page Output
==============
Install doxygen <http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/download.html> and dot2tex <https://dot2tex.readthedocs.io/en/latest>.
cd <build-dir>
cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_DOXYGEN=On <llvm-top-src-dir>
make doxygen-llvm # for LLVM docs
make doxygen-clang # for clang docs
It will generate html in
<build-dir>/docs/doxygen/html # for LLVM docs
<build-dir>/tools/clang/docs/doxygen/html # for clang docs
