Chapter 1. LLVM Toolset

LLVM Toolset provides Clang, LLDB, LLVM, compiler-rt, libomp, LLD, and python-lit for compiling, linking, and debugging C and C++ code. Each package in this release is version 20.1.8.

You can use LLVM Toolset on Red Hat Enterprise Linux on AMD and Intel 64-bit (x86_64) and 64-bit ARM (aarch64) systems. You can also use it on IBM Power Systems, Little Endian (ppc64le), and 64-bit IBM Z (s390x) systems.

On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, enable the llvm-toolset module to install LLVM Toolset and dependent packages. On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 and 10, install the llvm-toolset package instead.

The official LLVM Toolset documentation is available upstream. The llvm-doc package provides a reference to the upstream documentation.

The CMake build manager is a tool that manages the build process of your source code independently from your compiler. CMake generates a native build environment to compile source code, create libraries, generate wrappers, and build executable files. Install it by installing the cmake package on your system.

You can install documentation for the CMake build manager on your local system. Install the cmake-doc package to add the CMake documentation.
