LLVM has been updated from version 4.0.1 to 5.0.1. Notable changes include:

  • The libFuzzer library has been added to the llvm-toolset-7-compiler-rt package. As a result, developers can use fuzzing techniques to discover bugs in source code.
  • Support for the AMD Radeon GFX9 GPU architecture has been added to the AMDGPU backend.
  • Support for retpoline generation based on the upstream LLVM release version 5.0.2 has been added. As a result, code generated by LLVM can mitigate the Spectre v2 attack. (BZ#1553518)
  • Fix introduced to reduce stack usage in Rust programs. Rust issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/40883
