Right, having it here is still interesting, if not for perf, for some
other tool in tools/ that uses this:
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$ cat tools/build/feature/test-llvm.cpp
// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0
#include "llvm/Support/ManagedStatic.h"
#include "llvm/Support/raw_ostream.h"
#define NUM_VERSION (((LLVM_VERSION_MAJOR) << 16) + (LLVM_VERSION_MINOR << 8) + LLVM_VERSION_PATCH)
#if NUM_VERSION < 0x030900
# error "LLVM version too low"
#endif
int main()
{
llvm::errs() << "Hello World!\n";
llvm::llvm_shutdown();
return 0;
}
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$
My understanding about James intention is that for perf we need at least
llvm-dev 13, but he kept the other feature test for other projects.
