The llvm community has adopted new ways to build the compiler. There are
different ways to build llvm/clang, the Clang Getting Started page
[1] has
one way. As Yonghong said, it is better to just copy the build procedure
in Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst to keep consistent.
I verified the procedure and it is proved to be feasible, so we should
update README.rst to reflect the reality. At the same time, update the
related comment in Makefile.

I search the related doc [1] [2], remove this option is OK for me.
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL
Flag indicating if each LLVM component (e.g. Support) is built as a
shared library (ON) or as a static library (OFF). Its default value is OFF.

-DLLVM_BUILD_RUNTIME=OFF can be omitted if none of

I am not very sure about it because the default value of
LLVM_BUILD_RUNTIME is ON? [3]
option(LLVM_BUILD_RUNTIME
"Build the LLVM runtime libraries." ON)

If anyone has any more suggestions, please let me know.
I will send v3 after waiting for other feedback.
By the way, Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst maybe need a separate
patch to remove some cmake options?
Thanks,

It is also possible to point make to the newly compiled 'llc' or
'clang' command via redefining LLC or CLANG on the make command line::
- make M=samples/bpf LLC=~/git/llvm/build/bin/llc
CLANG=~/git/llvm/build/bin/clang
+ make M=samples/bpf LLC=~/git/llvm-project/llvm/build/bin/llc
CLANG=~/git/llvm-project/llvm/build/bin/clang
