clang 11 documentation 学习记录

clang description：
clang is a C, C++, and Objective-C compiler which encompasses preprocessing, parsing, optimization, code generation, assembly, and linking.

clang 编译 C文件过程：
1、Preprocessing 对头文件预处理
2、Parsing and Semantic Analysis 将输入文件生成“Abstract Syntax Tree”（AST）
3、Code Generation and Optimization：This stage translates an AST into low-level intermediate code(LLVM IR)，This phase is responsible for optimizing the generated code and handling target-specific code generation.做优化并生成.s的汇编文件。
4、在生成可执行文件并target linker

常用OPTIONS 编译选项说明：
-c
Run all of the above, plus the assembler, generating a target “.o” object file.

Language Selection and Mode Options

-stdlib=
Specify the C++ standard library to use; supported options are libstdc++ and libc++. If not specified, platform default will be used.

-fno-builtin
Disable special handling and optimizations of builtin functions like strlen() and malloc().

Code Generation Options
Driver Options
Diagnostics Options
Preprocessor Options

 exec clang ${design}.c -emit-llvm -c -fno-builtin -O1 -mllvm -disable-llvm-optzns -fno-vectorize -fno-slp-vectorize -fno-unroll-loops -o ${design}_O1.bc

Clang为LLVM提供的C语言编译器，默认参数可以生成本机可执行的二进制程序。-S和-c参数与GCC一样，可分别生成.s汇编文件与.o目标文件。

-emit-llvm选项可与-S或-c选项一起使用，以分别为代码生成LLVM .ll或.bc文件。

-mllvm Additional arguments to forward to LLVM’s option processing
