    [CMake] Add LLVM runtimes directory · 64adae59
    Chris Bieneman authored
    Summary:
    There are a few LLVM projects that produce runtime libraries. Ideally
    runtime libraries should be built differently than other projects,
    specifically they should be built using the just-built toolchain.
    
    There is support for building compiler-rt in this way from the clang
    build. Moving this logic into the LLVM build is interesting because it
    provides a simpler way to extend the just-built toolchain to include
    LLD and the LLVM object file tools.
    
    Once this functionality is better fleshed out and tested we’ll want to
    encapsulate it in a module that can be used for clang standalone
    builds, and we’ll want to make it the default way to build compiler-rt.
    
    With this patch applied there is no immediate change in the build.
    Moving compiler-rt out from llvm/projects into llvm/runtimes enables
    the functionality.
    
    This code has a few improvements over the method provided by
    LLVM_BUILD_EXTERNAL_COMPILER_RT. Specifically the sub-ninja command is
    always invoked, so changes to compiler-rt source files will get built
    properly, so this patch can be used for iterative development with
    just-built tools.
    
    This first patch only works with compiler-rt. Support for other
    runtime projects will be coming in follow-up patches.
