Potentially Breaking Changes
----------------------------
- The :doc:`modernize-use-using <clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-using>` check
now sets the `IgnoreExternC` option to `true` by default. The check will
no longer transform ``typedef``\ s within ``extern "C"`` blocks.
- Deprecated the :program:`clang-tidy` check :doc:`performance-faster-string-find
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/faster-string-find>`. It has been renamed to
:doc:`performance-prefer-single-char-overloads
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/prefer-single-char-overloads>`.
The original check will be removed in the 25th release.
- Removed the :program:`clang-tidy` ``hicpp`` module. All checks have been moved
to the other modules. Use the replacement checks instead:

- Removed the :program:`clang-doc` deprecated Markdown generator. ``--format=md``
now uses the new Mustache-backed MD generator. It is possible that there are some
regressions in MD output.
- Removed the :program:`clang-doc` YAML generator. Prefer the JSON generator to
get documentation information in a reusable format.
Improvements to clangd
----------------------

Code completion
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Now also provides include files without extension, if they are in a directory
only called ``include``.
- Added support for ``InsertReplaceEdit`` in code completion (LSP 3.16),
allowing clients that advertise ``insertReplaceSupport`` to receive both
insert and replace ranges for completion items.
- Changed completion-style default to ``detailed``. This means function
overloads will no longer be bundled together, but instead each have
their own completion item. This gives the user a better overview of the
possible overloads and also when accepting the item it will generate
placeholder parameters, which was not possible due to ambiguity with
``bundled``. To change back to the old behaviour, pass the argument
``--completion-style=bundled`` to clangd.
Code actions
^^^^^^^^^^^^
- A new tweak "Create function body out-of-line" was added that creates
an implementation for a function declaration.
Signature help

Improvements to clang-tidy
--------------------------
- Improved :program:`check_clang_tidy.py` script by adding the `-check-header`
argument to simplify testing of header files. This argument automatically
manages the creation of temporary header files and ensures that diagnostics
and fixes are verified for the specified headers.
- Improved :program:`clang-tidy` ``-store-check-profile`` by generating valid
JSON when the source file path contains characters that require JSON escaping.
- Improved :program:`clang-tidy` by preserving literal backslash characters in
POSIX source paths.
- Ensured that :program:`clang-tidy` and the clang compiler uses the same logic
for the suppression of compiler diagnostics in system headers and expansions
of macros defined in system headers. Previously the default setting of tidy
overzealously suppressed some diagnostics that would have been emitted by the
compiler. (E.g. tidy suppressed many ``clang-diagnostic-invalid-offsetof``
reports because they usually occur in expansion of the macro ``offsetof``.)
- :program:`clang-tidy` will no longer exit immediately if the only enabled
checks are `clang-diagnostic-*` ones. This allows using
:program:`clang-tidy` purely as a frontend to Clang's builtin warnings.
New checks
^^^^^^^^^^
- New :doc:`bugprone-assignment-in-selection-statement
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/assignment-in-selection-statement>` check.
Finds assignments within selection statements.
- New :doc:`bugprone-missing-end-comparison
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/missing-end-comparison>` check.
Finds instances where the result of a standard algorithm is used in a Boolean
context without being compared to the end iterator.
- New :doc:`bugprone-unsafe-to-allow-exceptions
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/unsafe-to-allow-exceptions>` check.
Finds functions where throwing exceptions is unsafe but the function is still
marked as potentially throwing.
- New :doc:`llvm-formatv-string
<clang-tidy/checks/llvm/formatv-string>` check.
Validates ``llvm::formatv`` format strings against the provided arguments,
diagnosing mismatched argument counts, unused arguments, and mixed index styles.
- New :doc:`llvm-redundant-casting
<clang-tidy/checks/llvm/redundant-casting>` check.
Points out uses of ``cast<>``, ``dyn_cast<>`` and their ``or_null`` variants
that are unnecessary because the argument already is of the target type, or a
derived type thereof. Also does similar analysis for calls to ``isa<>`` that
always return ``true``.
- New :doc:`llvm-type-switch-case-types
<clang-tidy/checks/llvm/type-switch-case-types>` check.
Finds ``llvm::TypeSwitch::Case`` calls with redundant explicit template
arguments that can be inferred from the lambda parameter type.
- New :doc:`llvm-use-vector-utils
<clang-tidy/checks/llvm/use-vector-utils>` check.
Finds calls to ``llvm::to_vector(llvm::map_range(...))`` and
``llvm::to_vector(llvm::make_filter_range(...))`` that can be replaced with
``llvm::map_to_vector`` and ``llvm::filter_to_vector``.
- New :doc:`misc-static-initialization-cycle
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/static-initialization-cycle>` check.
Finds cyclical initialization of static variables.
- New :doc:`modernize-use-std-bit

Finds common idioms which can be replaced by standard functions from the
``<bit>`` C++20 header.
- New :doc:`modernize-use-string-view
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-string-view>` check.
Looks for functions returning ``std::[w|u8|u16|u32]string`` and suggests to
change it to ``std::[...]string_view`` for performance reasons if possible.
- New :doc:`modernize-use-structured-binding
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-structured-binding>` check.
Finds places where structured bindings could be used to decompose pairs and
suggests replacing them.
- New :doc:`performance-string-view-conversions
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/string-view-conversions>` check.
Finds and removes redundant conversions from ``std::[w|u8|u16|u32]string_view`` to
``std::[...]string`` in call expressions expecting ``std::[...]string_view``.
- New :doc:`performance-use-std-move
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/use-std-move>` check.
Suggests insertion of ``std::move(...)`` to turn copy assignment operator
calls into move assignment ones, when deemed valid and profitable.
- New :doc:`readability-redundant-lambda-parameter-list
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/redundant-lambda-parameter-list>` check.
Finds lambda expressions with a redundant empty parameter list and removes it.
- New :doc:`readability-redundant-nested-if
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/redundant-nested-if>` check.
Finds nested ``if`` statements that can be merged into a single ``if`` by
combining conditions with ``&&``.
- New :doc:`readability-redundant-qualified-alias
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/redundant-qualified-alias>` check.
Finds redundant identity type aliases that re-expose a qualified name and can
be replaced with a ``using`` declaration.
- New :doc:`readability-trailing-comma
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/trailing-comma>` check.
Checks for presence or absence of trailing commas in enum definitions and
initializer lists.
New check aliases
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

to :doc:`bugprone-assignment-in-selection-statement
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/assignment-in-selection-statement>`.
- Renamed :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-explicit-constructor
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/explicit-constructor>`
to :doc:`misc-explicit-constructor
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/explicit-constructor>`. The
`cppcoreguidelines-explicit-constructor` name is kept as an alias.
- Renamed :doc:`google-explicit-constructor
<clang-tidy/checks/google/explicit-constructor>`
to :doc:`misc-explicit-constructor
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/explicit-constructor>`. The
`google-explicit-constructor` name is kept as an alias.

<clang-tidy/checks/performance/faster-string-find>` to
:doc:`performance-prefer-single-char-overloads
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/prefer-single-char-overloads>`.
The `performance-faster-string-find` name is kept as an alias.
Changes in existing checks
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Improved :doc:`altera-id-dependent-backward-branch
<clang-tidy/checks/altera/id-dependent-backward-branch>` check by fixing false
positives when ordinary variable or field assignments are used in loop
conditions and note locations for inferred ID-dependent fields.
- Improved :doc:`altera-unroll-loops
<clang-tidy/checks/altera/unroll-loops>` check by fixing a crash when
analyzing a ``for`` loop whose initialization statement declares multiple
variables.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-argument-comment
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/argument-comment>`:
- Checks for C++11 inherited constructors.
- Adds `CommentAnonymousInitLists`, `CommentTypedInitLists`, and
`CommentParenthesizedTemporaries` options to comment braced-init list
arguments and explicit temporary constructions (for example, ``{}``,
``Type{}``, and ``Type()``).
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-bad-signal-to-kill-thread
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/bad-signal-to-kill-thread>` check by fixing false
negatives when the ``SIGTERM`` macro is obtained from a precompiled header.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-branch-clone
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/branch-clone>` check by fixing a false positive
where ``if``/``else`` branches containing inline assembly that differed only
in the asm string or clobber list were reported as identical.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-casting-through-void
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/casting-through-void>` check by running only on
C++ files because suggested ``reinterpret_cast`` is not available in pure C.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-derived-method-shadowing-base-method
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/derived-method-shadowing-base-method>` check by
correctly ignoring function templates.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-exception-escape
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/exception-escape>` check by adding
`TreatFunctionsWithoutSpecificationAsThrowing` option to support reporting
for unannotated functions, enabling reporting when no explicit ``throw``
is seen and allowing separate tuning for known and unknown implementations.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-fold-init-type
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/fold-init-type>` check by detecting precision
loss in overloads with transparent standard functors (e.g. ``std::plus<>``)
for ``std::accumulate``, ``std::reduce``, and ``std::inner_product``.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-inc-dec-in-conditions
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/inc-dec-in-conditions>` check by fixing a false
positive when increment/decrement operators appear inside lambda bodies that
are part of a condition expression.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-incorrect-enable-if
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/incorrect-enable-if>` check to not
insert an extraneous ``typename`` on code like
``typename std::enable_if<...>``, where there's already a ``typename`` and
only the ``::type`` at the end is missing.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-macro-parentheses
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/macro-parentheses>` check by printing the macro
definition in the warning message if the macro is defined on command line.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-misplaced-widening-cast
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/misplaced-widening-cast>` check by fixing a false
positive on bit field assignments when the `CheckImplicitCasts` option is
enabled. The check now uses the actual bit field width instead of the
declared type to determine if widening occurs.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-move-forwarding-reference
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/move-forwarding-reference>` check by fixing some
false positives in the context of moved lambda captures.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-narrowing-conversions
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/narrowing-conversions>` check by fixing a false
positive when converting a ``bool`` to a signed integer type.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-pointer-arithmetic-on-polymorphic-object
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/pointer-arithmetic-on-polymorphic-object>` check
by fixing a false positive when ``operator[]`` is used in a dependent context.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-random-generator-seed
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/random-generator-seed>` check by adding
a new note at the location of the field if the generator is implicitly
initialized with a default seed value.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-std-namespace-modification
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/std-namespace-modification>` check by fixing
false positives when extending the standard library with a specialization of
user-defined type and by removing detection of the compiler generated ``std``
namespace extensions.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-string-constructor
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/string-constructor>` check to detect suspicious
string constructor calls when the string class constructor has a default
allocator argument.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-throwing-static-initialization
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/throwing-static-initialization>` check by adding
the `AllowedTypes` option. With this option it is possible to exclude
static declarations with specific types from the check.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-unchecked-optional-access
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/unchecked-optional-access>` to recognize common
GoogleTest macros such as ``ASSERT_TRUE`` and ``ASSERT_FALSE``, reducing the
number of false positives in test code.
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-unsafe-functions
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/unsafe-functions>` check by adding the function
``std::get_temporary_buffer`` to the default list of unsafe functions. (This
function is unsafe, useless, deprecated in C++17 and removed in C++20).
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-use-after-move
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/use-after-move>` check:
- Include the name of the invalidating function in the warning message when a
custom invalidation function is used (via the `InvalidationFunctions`
option).
- Add support for annotation of user-defined types as having the same
moved-from semantics as standard smart pointers.
- Do not report explicit call to destructor after move as an invalid use.
- Avoid false positives when moving object to a base type then accessing
non-base members.
- Avoid false positives when moving object is reinitialized via the base
class's ``operator=``.
- Fix a false positive when a moved-from variable is reinitialized
via a ``std::tie()`` assignment (e.g. ``std::tie(a, b) = f(std::move(a),
std::move(b))``). The tuple assignment writes back through the stored
references, which fully reinitializes the captured variables.
- Avoid false positives when forwarding a derived object to initialize a base
class subobject.
- Improved :doc:`cert-err33-c
<clang-tidy/checks/cert/err33-c>` check by not inheriting
`CheckedReturnTypes` option from :doc:`bugprone-unused-return-value
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/unused-return-value>`, which caused false
positives on functions returning ``std::error_code`` or similar types.
- Improved :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-avoid-capturing-lambda-coroutines
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/avoid-capturing-lambda-coroutines>`
check by adding the `AllowExplicitObjectParameters` option. When enabled,
lambda coroutines using C++23 deducing ``this`` (explicit object parameter)
are not flagged.
- Improved :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-avoid-non-const-global-variables
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/avoid-non-const-global-variables>`
check by adding the `IgnoreMacros` option. When enabled, non-const global
variables defined in macros are ignored.
- Improved :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-init-variables
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/init-variables>` check by ensuring that
member pointers are correctly flagged as uninitialized.
- Fixed :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-init-variables
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/init-variables>` check by excluding
Objective-C for-in loop variable declaration.
- Improved :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-missing-std-forward
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/missing-std-forward>` check by:
- Correctly handling forwarding in deeply nested lambdas.
- Fixed false negative when multiple parameters are used in a lambda and
only some of them are forwarded.
- Fixed false positive for constrained template parameters
- Fixed false positive with ``std::forward`` in brace-init and paren-init
lambda captures such as ``[t{std::forward<T>(t)}]``.
- Improved :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-pro-type-member-init
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/pro-type-member-init>` check by fixing
a false positive when a base class has a forward declaration before its
definition.
- Improved :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-pro-type-vararg
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/pro-type-vararg>` check by no longer
warning on builtins with custom type checking (e.g., type-generic builtins
like ``__builtin_clzg``) that use variadic declarations as an implementation
detail.
- Improved :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-rvalue-reference-param-not-moved
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/rvalue-reference-param-not-moved>` check:
- Fixed a false positive on implicitly generated functions such as
inherited constructors.
- Added `AllowImplicitMove` option to not warn when an rvalue reference
parameter is returned without an explicit ``std::move``.
- Improved :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-special-member-functions
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/special-member-functions>` check by
fixing a false positive with the `AllowImplicitlyDeletedCopyOrMove` option
for classes whose copy operations are implicitly deleted by a non-copyable
base class.
- Improved :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-use-enum-class
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/use-enum-class>` check by adding the
`IgnoreMacros` option. When enabled, unscoped ``enum`` declarations within
macros are ignored.
- Improved :doc:`fuchsia-statically-constructed-objects
<clang-tidy/checks/fuchsia/statically-constructed-objects>` check by fixing a
crash when checking value-dependent static member initializers in class templates.
- Improved :doc:`llvm-use-ranges
<clang-tidy/checks/llvm/use-ranges>` check by adding support for the following
algorithms: ``std::accumulate``, ``std::replace_copy``, and
``std::replace_copy_if``.
- Improved :doc:`misc-const-correctness
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/const-correctness>` check:
- Added support for analyzing function parameters with the `AnalyzeParameters`
option.
- Fixed false positive where an array of pointers to ``const`` was
incorrectly diagnosed as allowing the pointee to be made ``const``.
- Fixed false positive where a pointer used with placement new was
incorrectly diagnosed as allowing the pointee to be made ``const``.
- Enabled the check for variables declared with ``auto`` (configurable
via the `AnalyzeAutoVariables` option) and lambdas (configurable
via `AnalyzeLambdas` option).
- Fixed false positive where calling a non-const member function on a
pointer was incorrectly treated as mutating the pointer, when it only
mutates the pointee.
- Fixed false positives when pointers were later passed or bound through
``const``-qualified pointer references.
- Fixed false positive where a pointer returned as a non-const ``void *``
was incorrectly diagnosed as allowing its pointee to be made ``const``.
- Improved :doc:`misc-multiple-inheritance
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/multiple-inheritance>` by avoiding false positives when
virtual inheritance causes concrete bases to be counted more than once.
- Improved :doc:`misc-redundant-expression
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/redundant-expression>` check:
- Fixed a crash when evaluating bitwise comparisons against integer constants
wider than 64 bits.
- Avoided false positives when comparing expressions that are structurally
identical but use different type aliases.
- Improved :doc:`misc-throw-by-value-catch-by-reference
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/throw-by-value-catch-by-reference>` check:
- Fixed the `WarnOnLargeObject` option to use the correct name when
storing the configuration.
- Fixed the `CheckThrowTemporaries` option to correctly reflect its
configured value in exported settings.
- Improved :doc:`misc-unused-parameters
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/unused-parameters>` check by adding
`IgnoreMacroParameters` option to suppress warnings for unused parameters
whose declarations originate from macro expansions.
- Improved :doc:`misc-unused-using-decls
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/unused-using-decls>` to not diagnose ``using``
declarations as unused if they're exported from a module.
- Improved :doc:`misc-use-internal-linkage
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/use-internal-linkage>` to not suggest giving
internal linkage to entities defined in C++ module interface units.
Because it only sees one file at a time, the check can't be sure
such entities aren't referenced in any other files of that module.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-avoid-c-style-cast
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/avoid-c-style-cast>` check by fixing an invalid
fix-it generated when replacing casts that directly follow a keyword or
identifier.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-deprecated-headers
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/deprecated-headers>` check by avoiding false
positives on project headers that use the same name as a standard library
header.
- Improve :doc:`modernize-loop-convert
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/loop-convert>` checks to insert a space when
replacing ``*it`` with the loop variable in expressions like ``delete*it``,
where the missing space would cause the keyword and the new variable to
merge into a single identifier.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-macro-to-enum
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/macro-to-enum>` check by preserving source file
line endings in fix-it replacements.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-pass-by-value
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/pass-by-value>` check by adding `IgnoreMacros`
option to suppress warnings in macros.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-redundant-void-arg
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/redundant-void-arg>` check to work in C23.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-return-braced-init-list
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/return-braced-init-list>` check to apply fix-it
when type qualifiers and/or reference modifiers are used with parameters.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-type-traits
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/type-traits>` check to suggest usage of
``std::remove_cvref_t`` when applicable.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-default-member-init
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-default-member-init>` check by fixing a
false positive when a constructor initializer refers to a declaration that
would not be visible from the inserted default member initializer. The
`IgnoreNonVisibleReferences` option can be set to `false` to warn without
emitting fix-its for these cases.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-equals-delete
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-equals-delete>` check by only warning on
private deleted functions, if they do not have a public overload or are a
special member function.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-nodiscard
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-nodiscard>` check by avoiding false
positives on functions returning specializations of class templates marked
``[[nodiscard]]``.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-override
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-override>` check by adding the
`AllowVirtualAndOverride` option to allow keeping ``virtual`` on methods
that are also marked ``override``.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-ranges
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-ranges>` check:
- Preserved used iterator results when replacing ``std::unique`` calls with
``std::ranges::unique``.
- Preserved used iterator results when replacing ``std::remove``,
``std::remove_if``, ``std::partition``, ``std::stable_partition``, and
``std::rotate`` calls with their ``std::ranges`` counterparts.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-scoped-lock
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-scoped-lock>` check by fixing a false
negative where multiple ``std::scoped_lock`` declarations, or a mix of
``std::scoped_lock`` and ``std::lock_guard`` declarations, in the same scope
were not flagged.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-std-format
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-std-format>` check:
- Fixed a crash when an argument is part of a macro expansion.
- Added missing ``#include`` insertion when the format function call
appears as an argument to a macro.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-std-print
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-std-print>` check by adding missing
``#include`` insertion when the format function call appears as an
argument to a macro.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-trailing-return-type

spurious ``missing '(' after '__has_feature'`` errors caused by builtin
macros appearing in the return type of a function.
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-using
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-using>` check:
- Avoid generating invalid code for function types with redundant
parentheses.
- Preserve inline comment blocks that appear between the ``typedef``'s parts.
- The `IgnoreExternC` option is now set to `true` by default.
- Improved :doc:`performance-enum-size
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/enum-size>` check:
- Exclude ``enum`` in ``extern "C"`` blocks.
- Improved the ignore list to correctly handle ``typedef`` and ``enum``.
- Improved :doc:`performance-inefficient-string-concatenation
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/inefficient-string-concatenation>` check by
adding support for detecting inefficient string concatenation in ``do-while``
loops.
- Improved :doc:`performance-inefficient-vector-operation
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/inefficient-vector-operation>` check by
correctly handling vector-like classes when ``push_back``/``emplace_back`` are
inherited.
- Improved :doc:`performance-move-const-arg
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/move-const-arg>` check by avoiding false
positives on trivially copyable types with a non-public copy constructor.
- Improved :doc:`performance-prefer-single-char-overloads
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/prefer-single-char-overloads>` check:
- Now analyzes calls to the ``starts_with``, ``ends_with``, ``contains``,
and ``operator+=`` string member functions.
- Fixes false negatives when using ``std::set`` from ``libstdc++``.
- Improved :doc:`performance-trivially-destructible
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/trivially-destructible>` check by fixing
false positives when a class is seen through both a header include and
a C++20 module import.
- Improved :doc:`readability-braces-around-statements
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/braces-around-statements>` check by fixing a
crash when diagnosing a statement that ends in the middle of a macro body
expansion.
- Improved :doc:`readability-container-size-empty
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/container-size-empty>` check:
- Fix a crash when a member expression has a non-identifier name.
- Reduce verbosity by removing the note indicating source location of the
``empty`` function.
- Fixed a false positive with suggesting ``empty`` when comparing a container
to a default-constructed object of an unrelated type.
- Extended to warn when the non-member ``std::size()`` function is used
in a Boolean context or compared to ``0`` or ``1``, consistent with the
existing ``size()``/``length()`` member call detection.
- Improved :doc:`readability-convert-member-functions-to-static
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/convert-member-functions-to-static>` check:
- Fixing a false positive where ``const`` member functions were incorrectly
flagged when they are part of a const/non-const overload pair.
- Correctly detecting ``this`` usage when a generic lambda calls an overloaded
member function.
- Improved :doc:`readability-delete-null-pointer
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/delete-null-pointer>` check by avoiding invalid
fix-its for ``if`` statements with condition variables or initializers.
- Improved :doc:`readability-else-after-return
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/else-after-return>` check:
- Fixed missed diagnostics when ``if`` statements appear in unbraced
``switch`` case labels.
- Fixed a false positive involving ``if`` statements which contain
a ``return``, ``break``, etc., jumped over by a ``goto``.
- Fixed the check potentially breaking code by deleting one too many
characters following an ``else`` or a curly brace.
- Added support for handling attributed ``if`` then-branches such as
``[[likely]]`` and ``[[unlikely]]``.
- Diagnose and remove redundant ``else`` branches after calls to
``[[noreturn]]`` functions.
- Improved :doc:`readability-enum-initial-value
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/enum-initial-value>` check: the warning message
now uses separate note diagnostics for each uninitialized enumerator, making
it easier to see which specific enumerators need explicit initialization.
- Improved :doc:`readability-function-size
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/function-size>` check by adding an
`IgnoreMacros` option to exclude statements, branches, nesting levels, and
variable declarations inside macros from the reported metrics.
- Improved :doc:`readability-identifier-length
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/identifier-length>` check:
- A new option, named `LineCountThreshold`, is added to silence warnings for
short-lived variables, based on distance between declaration and last use.
- Support for structured bindings is added. Two new options, named
`MinimumBindingNameLength` and `IgnoredBindingNames` respectively, are
added to configure the behavior of the check regarding this new identifier
kind. By default, names with at least 2 characters are required and the
only exception allowed is `_`.
- Improved :doc:`readability-identifier-naming
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/identifier-naming>` check:
- Fixed incorrect naming style application to C++17 structured bindings.
- Fixed a false positive where function templates could be diagnosed as generic
identifiers when `DefaultCase` was enabled.
- Fixed a crash in dependent base lookup when
`AggressiveDependentMemberLookup` option is enabled.
- Fixed a false positive from naming style lookup for declarations inside macro
arguments.
- Improved :doc:`readability-implicit-bool-conversion
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/implicit-bool-conversion>` check:
- Fixed a false positive where `AllowPointerConditions` and
`AllowIntegerConditions` options did not suppress warnings when the
condition expression involved temporaries (e.g. passing a string literal to
a ``const std::string&`` parameter).
- Warn and provide fix-its when a macro defined in a system header (e.g.
``NULL``) is implicitly converted to ``bool``.
- Added `AllowLogicalOperatorConversion` option to suppress warnings on
implicit conversions of logical operator results (``&&``, ``||``, ``!``)
to ``bool`` in C.
- Fixed a false positive where ``bool`` conditions in C conditional
operators were diagnosed as implicit conversions to ``int``.
- Improved :doc:`readability-inconsistent-ifelse-braces
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/inconsistent-ifelse-braces>` check to
correctly handle labeled statements of ``if``/``else`` bodies.
- Improved :doc:`readability-non-const-parameter
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/non-const-parameter>` check:
- Avoid false positives on parameters used in dependent expressions
(e.g. inside generic lambdas), including constructor-style dependent initializers.
- Fixed a false positive in array subscript expressions where the types are
not yet resolved.
- Fixed a false positive when adding ``const`` to a pointer parameter would
conflict with an existing overload.
- Fixed a crash when analyzing a redeclaration whose initializer is attached
to another declaration.
- Improved :doc:`readability-redundant-casting
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/redundant-casting>` check by adding the
`IgnoreImplicitCasts` option (default `false`) to flag casts as redundant
when at least one operand of a binary operation matches the cast type due to
implicit conversion. For example, ``static_cast<float>(1.0f + 1)`` is now
identified as redundant since ``1`` is implicitly converted to ``float``.
Setting this option to `true` restores the previous behavior.
- Improved :doc:`readability-redundant-member-init
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/redundant-member-init>` check by adding an
`IgnoreMacros` option to suppress warnings when the initializer involves
macros that may expand differently in other configurations.
- Improved :doc:`readability-redundant-parentheses
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/redundant-parentheses>` check:
- Fixed a false positive for parentheses present around an overloaded operator
in the context of a binary operation.
- Fixed a bug where clients that apply fix-its without :program:`clang-tidy`'s
cleanup could produce invalid code by joining adjacent tokens.
- Added support for parentheses around subscript operators (``(E1[E2])`` -> ``E1[E2]``).
- Improved :doc:`readability-redundant-preprocessor
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/redundant-preprocessor>` check by fixing a
false positive for nested ``#if`` directives using different builtin
expressions such as ``__has_builtin`` and ``__has_cpp_attribute``.
- Improved :doc:`readability-simplify-boolean-expr
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/simplify-boolean-expr>` check to provide valid
fix suggestions for C23 and later by not using ``static_cast``.
- Improved :doc:`readability-simplify-subscript-expr
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/simplify-subscript-expr>` check by fixing
missing warnings when subscripting an object held inside a generic
container (e.g. subscripting a ``std::string`` held inside a
``std::vector<std::string>``).
- Improved :doc:`readability-suspicious-call-argument
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/suspicious-call-argument>` check by avoiding a
crash from invalid ``Abbreviations`` option.
- Improved :doc:`readability-trivial-switch
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/trivial-switch>` check by adding an
`IgnoreMacros` option. When enabled, the check will ignore switch
statements originating from macros.
- Improved :doc:`readability-use-anyofallof
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/use-anyofallof>` check by emitting a diagnostic
note to suggest materializing the temporary range when iterating over temporary
range expressions or initializer lists, as reusing them directly could be unsafe.

## Non-comprehensive list of changes in this release
- Global, allocatable, and pointer arrays are now aligned to 64 bytes. The
flang runtime allocator was updated to honor this alignment for allocatable
and pointer arrays.
## New Compiler Flags
- The warning flags with prefixes -Wopen-mp and -Wopen-acc have been deprecated in favor of corrected spellings with the respective prefixes -Wopenmp and -Wopenacc. Removal of the deprecated options is planned for LLVM 25 (July 2027).
- The `-Werror` flag will cause all warnings to become errors. This includes warnings about support for OpenMP versions, which will now prevent the compilation from happening with the `-Werror` flag. These OpenMP warnings can be disabled with `-Wno-experimental-option`.

ELF Improvements
----------------
* Input file loading is now parallelized, meaningfully reducing link time
for large links.
(`#191690 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/191690>`_)
* ``--gc-sections`` mark phase is now parallelized.
(`#189321 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/189321>`_)
* Relocation scanning was rewritten as target-specific scanners for all
targets with shared library support, devirtualizing the hot
relocation-classification path.
* Added ``--bp-compression-sort-section=<glob>[=<layout_priority>[=<match_priority>]]``,
replacing the old coarse ``--bp-compression-sort`` modes with a way to split
input sections into multiple compression groups, run balanced partitioning
independently per group, and leave out sections that are poor candidates for
BP.
``layout_priority`` controls group placement order (lower value = placed
first, default 0). ``match_priority`` resolves conflicts when multiple globs
match the same section (lower value = higher priority; explicit priority
beats positional last-match-wins; default: positional). In ELF, the glob
matches input section names (e.g. ``.text.unlikely.code1``).
* Added ``-z memtag-{mode,heap,stack}`` as generic replacements for the
Android-specific ``--android-memtag-*`` flags; ``--android-memtag-note``
keeps the Android-specific memtag note opt-in.
(`#188205 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/188205>`_)
* Unused space in executable output sections is now filled with trap, primarily
for ``-z separate-code`` mode.
(`#176845 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/176845>`_)
* ``.eh_frame_hdr`` now supports the ``DW_EH_PE_sdata8`` encoding,
auto-upgrading from ``sdata4`` when a table entry or the frame pointer
exceeds the 32-bit range, instead of erroring out for large executables.
(`#179089 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/179089>`_)
* ``vna_flags`` is now set to ``VER_FLG_WEAK`` when all undefined references
to a version are weak, allowing glibc's dynamic loader to warn instead of
error when the version is missing at runtime.
(`#176673 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/176673>`_)
* ``.ltext.*`` input sections are now merged into a single ``.ltext`` output
section, matching the existing ``.ldata.*``/``.lrodata.*``/``.lbss.*``
handling for the large code model with ``-ffunction-sections``.
(`#190305 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/190305>`_)
* ``.tbss`` output sections may now use an explicit address expression;
previously it was silently overridden to follow the preceding ``.tbss``.
(`#196447 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/196447>`_)
* ``--discard-locals``/``--discard-all`` combined with ``-r``/``--emit-relocs``
no longer discard local symbols that are referenced only from retained
non-``SHF_ALLOC`` sections (e.g. ``.L`` symbols referenced by
``.debug_info``), fixing DWARF corruption in the output.
(`#209035 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/209035>`_)
(`#209042 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/209042>`_)
* ``--retain-symbols-file`` now filters ``.symtab`` instead of ``.dynsym``,
matching GNU ld.
(`#209063 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/209063>`_)
* ``INCLUDE`` in linker scripts now fully parses its own content instead of
sharing a lexer buffer stack with the includer, fixing spurious acceptance
of malformed scripts.
(`#193427 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/193427>`_)
* The ``OVERLAY`` linker script command now accepts any
output-section-command (e.g. symbol assignments), not just input section
descriptions.
(`#203524 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/203524>`_)
* Thunks are no longer reused across an ``OVERLAY`` boundary unless the
target output section is guaranteed to be resident at the same time.
(`#200415 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/200415>`_)
* When a ``SECTIONS`` command interleaves relro and non-relro sections, lld now
emits one ``PT_GNU_RELRO`` segment per contiguous run of relro sections
instead of reporting a ``not contiguous with other relro sections`` error.
* ``SHT_NOBITS`` sections are now excluded from LMA overlap checks, matching
GNU ld and allowing e.g. a startup section to share an LMA with ``.bss``
in embedded linker scripts.
(`#196423 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/196423>`_)
* LTO: the middle-end no longer emits new references to, or internalizes,
symbols defined in bitcode after the extracted-bitcode set has been fixed,
preventing undefined symbol references from transforms that run after
linking has determined which bitcode files to extract.
(`#164916 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/164916>`_)
* DTLTO: significantly improved the performance of adding backend output
files to the link, especially on Windows.
(`#186366 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/186366>`_)
* For AArch64, fixed ``.relr.auth.dyn`` -> ``.rela.dyn`` movement to
properly adjust ``__rela_iplt_start``/``__rela_iplt_end`` and size the
``.dynamic`` section for both tags.
(`#195649 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/195649>`_)
* For AArch64, handle Memtag globals for ``R_AARCH64_AUTH_ABS64``.
(`#173291 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/173291>`_)
* For AArch64, fixed TLS GD against non-preemptible dynamic symbols (e.g.
``protected`` or ``-Bsymbolic``) in DSOs, which previously produced an
inconsistent GOT entry and spurious preemption.
(`#207881 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/207881>`_)
* For AArch64, ``adrp``+``ldr`` GOT relaxation is now decided per-symbol,
all-or-nothing, avoiding invalid relaxation when a branch target sits
between the ``adrp`` and ``ldr`` of a pair.
(`#208396 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/208396>`_)
* For AArch64, a redundant local-exec TLS ``add`` with a zero high-12-bits
immediate is now relaxed to a ``nop``.
(`#204286 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/204286>`_)
* x86-64 CFI jump table relaxation reduces the runtime overhead of indirect
calls under Control Flow Integrity by opportunistically moving eligible
function bodies into the jump table itself.
(`#147424 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/147424>`_)
Breaking changes
----------------
* The symbol partition feature has been removed. lld no longer recognizes
``SHT_LLVM_SYMPART`` sections, which are now treated as ordinary sections. The
feature saw no adoption beyond a Chromium experiment that has since been
retired.
* An OutputSection that has an address expression, and is also assigned
to a MEMORY region, will now use the address expression in preference
to the next available location in the MEMORY region. This brings LLD
in line with GNU ld, but is a change in behavior from previous LLD
releases.
* The default extension for time trace files is now ``.time-trace.json``.
COFF Improvements
-----------------
* Added support for ``.obj.arm64ec`` sections to allow embedding ARM64EC object
files inside ARM64 object files.
MinGW Improvements
------------------
* Added ``--push-state`` and ``--pop-state``, offering the same semantics as
when used with the ELF linker: The state of ``--Bstatic``/``--Bdynamic`` and
``--whole-archive`` are pushed onto a stack and popped from it.
* Added the ``--native-def`` option to specify the native module-definition
file for ARM64X targets. If a module-definition file is passed without this
option, it is used for both native and EC views. ``--native-def=`` can be
used to prevent the native view from using the default file.
MachO Improvements
------------------
* ``--bp-compression-sort-section`` now accepts optional layout and match
priorities (same syntax as ELF). In Mach-O, the glob matches the
concatenated segment+section name (e.g. ``__TEXT__text``).
* Restructure thunk generation algorithm to be more efficiently create thunks
(`#193367 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/193367>`_)
* Alphabetically sort LC_LINKER_OPTIONS before processing to match Apple linker behavior
(`#201604 https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/201604`)

### Changes to the LLVM IR
* Removed `llvm.convert.to.fp16` and `llvm.convert.from.fp16`
intrinsics. These are equivalent to `fptrunc` and `fpext` with half
with a bitcast.
* "denormal-fp-math" and "denormal-fp-math-f32" string attributes were
migrated to first-class denormal_fpenv attribute.
* The `"nooutline"` attribute is now writen as `nooutline`. Existing IR and
bitcode will be automatically updated.
* `ConstantPointerNull` can now represent fixed and scalable vector splats of
null pointers. Such constants may print as `splat (ptr null)` instead of
`zeroinitializer`.
* LLVM IR floating-point literals have greatly changed:
* The old hexadecimal bitwise representation is deprecated and will be removed
in the next revision. It is replaced with a unified `f0x` prefix.
* Hexadecimal literals akin to C99's syntax are supported.
* Special values for infinities and NaNs, including NaN payloads, are added.
* The standard textual output for floating-point literals is changed to take
advantage of the new floating-point literals formats.
* The resume/destroy functions emitted for the switch-resume ABI (C++20
coroutines) now use `CallingConv::C` instead of `CallingConv::Fast`. This
stabilizes the coroutine ABI across LLVM versions and aligns it with other
vendors. The change is observationally identical on targets where `fastcc`
and `ccc` agree for `void(ptr)` (x86_64, AArch64, RISC-V, ...) but is an ABI
break on i686, MIPS O32, PowerPC64 ELFv1, and Lanai.
* Assume bundles now only accept attributes that are actually handled.
Specifically, they are ``align``, ``cold``, ``dereferenceable``,
``dereferenceable_or_null``, ``nonnull``, ``noundef`` and
``separate_storage``.
* Fast math flags are now permitted on `uitofp` and `sitofp`.
* The ``modular-format`` attribute now supports the ``fixed`` aspect for C
ISO 18037 fixed-point ``printf`` specifiers.
* Added `noipa` attribute which disables interprocedural analyses that inspect
the definition of the function. This attribute does *not* control inlining or
outlining. Add the `noinline` and `nooutline` attributes as well in cases
where inlining and outlining should additionally be disabled.
* Added support for ``callgraph`` metadata. The `!callgraph` metadata
associates a function definition with its type identifier and is used for call
graph section generation. See the [callgraph Metadata](https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#callgraph-metadata)
section of the LangRef for details.
* The `dereferenceable` and `dereferenceable_or_null` attributes (and
corresponding metadata) now apply only at the point of definition, instead of
for the execution of the function (for arguments) or forever (for returns).
* `alwaysinline` no longer bypasses inlining compatibility checks based on
target features. Inlining will only be performed if it is safe to do so.
* Module-level inline assembly now accepts optional `target_features` and
`target_cpu` properties. This resolves errors during LTO on some
architectures.
### Changes to LLVM infrastructure
* Removed ``Constant::isZeroValue``. It was functionally identical to
``Constant::isNullValue`` for all types except floating-point negative
zero. All callers should use ``isNullValue`` instead. ``isZeroValue``
will be reintroduced in the future with bitwise-all-zeros semantics
to support non-zero null pointers.
* Added support for specifying the null pointer bit representation per
address space in `DataLayout`. Pointer specifications (`p`) accept new
flags: `z` (null is all-zeros) and `o` (null is all-ones). Address
spaces without an explicit flag default to all-zeros. See the
`DataLayout` section of the
[LangRef](https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#data-layout) for details.
* Removed TypePromoteFloat legalization from SelectionDAG
* Removed `bugpoint`. Usage has been replaced by `llvm-reduce` and
`llvm/utils/reduce_pipeline.py`.
* The ``Br`` opcode was split into two opcodes separating unconditional
(``UncondBr``) and conditional (``CondBr``) branches.
* ``BranchInst`` was deprecated in favor of ``UncondBrInst`` and ``CondBrInst``.
* The operand order of ``CondBr`` instructions was adjusted to match the
successor order. This can cause subtle breakage when using ``getOperand`` or
``setOperand`` to access successors.
* The ``llvm::sys::fs`` link creation API has been refactored:
* ``create_link`` now tries to create a symbolic link first, falling back to a
hard link if that fails (previously it created a symlink on Unix and a hard
link on Windows).
* Added ``create_symlink``, which always creates a symbolic link. On windows
this may fail if symlink permissions are not available.
* Added ``readlink``, which reads the target of a symbolic link.
* Bitcode libraries can now implement compiler-managed library functions
(libcalls) without causing incorrect API manipulation or undefined references
([#177046](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/125687)). Note that
there are still issues with invalid compiler reasoning about some functions
in bitcode, e.g. `malloc`. Not yet supported on MachO or when using
distributed ThinLTO.
* ``ConstantFP`` now supports vector types and is the canonical form returned by
``ConstantVector::getSplat(C)`` when ``C`` is a scalar ``ConstantFP``.
* ``DenseMap``, ``DenseSet``, ``StringMap``, and ``StringSet`` ``erase`` now
invalidates all iterators and references into the container, not just the
iterator for the erased element. Use the new ``remove_if`` member to erase
matching elements in a single pass instead of erasing while iterating.
* ``TargetRegisterInfo::getMinimalPhysRegClass`` and related APIs have been
refactored and no longer take a type. This API is also now precomputed in
TableGen to improve compile-time.
* ``APInt::sqrt`` (square root rounded to nearest integer) has been replaced
with ``APInt::sqrtFloor`` (floor of square root).
### Changes to building LLVM
### Changes to TableGen
* Outer let statements use ``ID{n-m}`` instead of ``ID<n-m>`` to be consistent
with inner let statements.
### Changes to Interprocedural Optimizations
### Changes to Vectorizers
### Changes to the AArch64 Backend
* The `sysp`, `mrrs`, and `msrr` instructions are now accepted without
requiring the `+d128` feature gating.
* Added a new internal option `-aarch64-emit-debug-tls-location` to allow the
emission of `DW_AT_location` for thread-local variables. This is currently
disabled by default to maintain compatibility with Binutils and LLVM older
toolchains that do not define the `R_AARCH64_TLS_DTPREL64` static relocation
type for TLS offsets.
* A bug was fixed that caused LLVM IR inline assembly clobbers of the x29 and
x30 registers to be ignored when they were written using their xN names
instead of the ABI names FP and LR. Note that LLVM IR produced by Clang
always uses the ABI names, but other frontends may not.
([#167783](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/167783))
### Changes to the AMDGPU Backend
* Initial support for gfx1310
* The `"amdgpu-num-sgpr"` and `"amdgpu-num-vgpr"` IR function attributes
(generated by the Clang `amdgpu_num_sgpr` and `amdgpu_num_vgpr` attributes)
are now deprecated. Use `"amdgpu-waves-per-eu"` instead. The backend still
honors the attributes; Clang emits a `-Wdeprecated-declarations` warning when
the source attributes are used.
* The `relaxed-buffer-oob-mode` subtarget feature has been replaced by two
module flags, `amdgpu.buffer.oob.mode` and `amdgpu.tbuffer.oob.mode`, which
control out-of-bounds semantics (see the AMDGPU User Guide). Frontends that
previously relied on the subtarget feature to enable misaligned buffer merging
must now set the corresponding module flag to `1` (relaxed). An absent flag is
treated as strict by the backend.
* Changed triple naming system from "amdgcn" to "amdgpu" plus a subarch suffix.
### Changes to the ARM Backend
* The `r14` register can now be used as an alias for the link register `lr`
in inline assembly. Clang always canonicalizes the name to `lr`, but other
frontends may not.
* `subs pc, lr, #imm` can now be predicated in Thumb2.

* `llvm-objdump` now has support for `--symbolize-operands` with RISC-V.
* `-mcpu=spacemit-x100` was added.
* Change P extension version to match the 0.21 draft specification.
* Mnemonics for MOP/HINT-based instructions (`lpad`, `pause`, `ntl.*`, `c.ntl.*`,
`sspush`, `sspopchk`, `ssrdp`, `c.sspush`, `c.sspopchk`) are now always
available in the assembler and disassembler without requiring their respective
extensions.
* Adds experimental assembler support for the 'Zvabd` (RISC-V Integer Vector
Absolute Difference) extension.
* Adds CodeGen support for the 'Zvabd` extension.
* `-mcpu=spacemit-a100` was added.
* Adds assembler support for the `XSMTVDotII` (SpacemiT Vector Extension for Matrix 2.0) extension.
* The opt-in `-riscv-enable-p-ext-simd-codegen` flag has been removed. P extension SIMD code generation is now enabled automatically if the P extension is supported.
* `-mcpu=xt-c910v2` and `-mcpu=xt-c920v2` were added.
* Adds experimental assembler support for the 'Zvzip` (RISC-V Vector
Reordering Structured Data) extension.
* `-mcpu=sifive-x160` and `-mcpu=sifive-x180` were added.
* Support for the experimental `XRivosVisni` vendor extension has been removed.
* Support for the experimental `XRivosVizip` vendor extension has been removed.
* Adds experimental assembler support for the 'Zvvmm` (RISC-V Integer Matrix Multiply-Accumulate) extension.
* Adds experimental assembler support for the 'Zvvfmm` (RISC-V Floating-Point Matrix Multiply-Accumulate) extension.
* Adds experimental assembler support for the 'Zvvmtls` and 'Zvvmttls` (RISC-V
Matrix Tile Load/Store) extensions.
* Adds support for 'Ziccid' (Instruction/Data Coherence and Consistency) extension.
* Adds experimental assembler support for the `Xqccmt` (Qualcomm 16-bit Table Jump) vendor extension.
* `-mcpu=sifive-870` has been renamed `-mcpu=sifive-p870-d`.
* Adds experimental assembler support for batched dot-product extensions(Zvqwbdota8i, Zvqwbdota16i, Zvfwbdota16bf, Zvfqwbdota8f and Zvfbdota32f).
* Adds experimental assembler support for dot-product extensions(Zvqwdota8i, Zvqwdota16i, Zvfwdota16bf and Zvfqwdota8f).
* `-mtune=generic` now uses the scheduling model from SpacemiT X60 instead of an empty scheduling model.
* The Xqcilo pseudos now emit sequences that can be relaxed.
### Changes to the WebAssembly Backend
* WebAssembly reference types are now represented in LLVM IR as the target
extension types `target("wasm.externref")` and `target("wasm.funcref")`,
rather than as pointers in address spaces 10 and 20 (`ptr addrspace(10)` /
`ptr addrspace(20)`).
* As a consequence of the representation change, reference types are no longer
treated as vectorizable pointers. This fixes a crash in the SLP vectorizer,
which previously would attempt to gather `externref`/`funcref` values into a
vector and then crash.
### Changes to the Windows Target
* The `.seh_startchained` and `.seh_endchained` assembly instructions have been removed and replaced
with a new `.seh_splitchained` instruction.
### Changes to the X86 Backend
* `.att_syntax` directive is now emitted for assembly files when AT&T syntax is
in use. This matches the behaviour of Intel syntax and aids with
compatibility when changing the default Clang syntax to the Intel syntax.
* EGPR (R16-R31) now requires V3 unwind info on Windows x64. Using EGPR
without V3 unwind produces a fatal error.
* Implemented Win64 APX ABI callee-saved registers: R30 and R31 are now
treated as non-volatile in the Win64 calling convention when APX is
available, per the Microsoft x64 calling convention specification.
* Functions using setjmp with Win64 APX ABI now reserve R30/R31 from
register allocation, as the unwinder cannot restore APX extended
registers across longjmp. A warning is emitted for large functions
where this reservation may impact performance.
* Added ``.seh_push2regs`` assembly directive for explicitly encoding a
two-register push in Windows x64 V3 unwind info. The directive takes two
register operands: ``.seh_push2regs %r12, %r13``.
* The `fp128` type is now returned via sret instead of XMM0 for some calling
conventions to match GCC. The C and Win64 calling conventions now use
sret, other calling conventions do not need to be compatible with
GCC and still return via XMM0.
### Changes to the OCaml bindings
### Changes to the Python bindings
### Changes to the C API
* Replaced opcode ``LLVMBr`` with ``LLVMUncondBr`` and ``LLVMCondBr``.
* The operand order of ``CondBr`` instructions was adjusted to match the
successor order. This can cause subtle breakage when using ``LLVMGetOperand``
or ``LLVMSetOperand`` to access successors.
### Changes to the CodeGen infrastructure
* Renamed ISD::CTLZ_ZERO_UNDEF to ISD::CTLZ_ZERO_POISON opcode to make it clear that
a zero input results in poison.
* Renamed ISD::CTTZ_ZERO_UNDEF to ISD::CTTZ_ZERO_POISON opcode to make it clear that
a zero input results in poison.
* LLVM intrinsics can now declare required target features using the
``TargetFeatures`` TableGen field. SelectionDAG and GlobalISel use this
metadata to reject unsupported target intrinsics generically, so targets do
not need custom lowering checks for each annotated intrinsic.
### Changes to the GlobalISel infrastructure
* Renamed G_CTLZ_ZERO_UNDEF to G_CTLZ_ZERO_POISON opcode to make it clear that
a zero input results in poison.
* Renamed G_CTTZ_ZERO_UNDEF to G_CTTZ_ZERO_POISON opcode to make it clear that
a zero input results in poison.
* GlobalISel's IRTranslator now supports the LLVM IR byte type (`bN`). Byte
values are translated as the equi-sized integer scalar (`sN`), `ConstantByte`
is materialised via `G_CONSTANT`, and `bitcast` between a byte type and a
pointer is lowered to `G_INTTOPTR` / `G_PTRTOINT` rather than the
verifier-illegal `G_BITCAST`.
### Changes to the Metadata Info
### Changes to the Debug Info
### Changes to the LLVM tools
* llvm-ml now supports the `/unwindv3` flag to enable V3 unwind information
format for x64 exception handling.
* llvm-ml now supports the `@UnwindVersion` built-in symbol, which returns the
current unwind version (1 by default, 3 when `/unwindv3` is specified).
* llvm-ml now supports the `.push2reg`, `.pop2reg`, `.beginepilog`, and
`.endepilog` MASM directives for V3 unwind information.
* llvm-ml now supports the `.popreg`, `.freestack`, `.restorereg`,
`.restorexmm128`, and `.unsetframe` MASM epilog directives. These are the
epilog counterparts of `.pushreg`, `.allocstack`, `.savereg`,
`.savexmm128`, and `.setframe` respectively, and are valid only inside
`.beginepilog`/`.endepilog` blocks and only for V3 unwind information.
* llvm-ml now supports `.pushframe code` syntax (without the `@` prefix)
for interrupt handlers with error codes.
* llvm-ml now diagnoses:
- Prolog directives (including `.allocstack`) used outside of prologs (after `.endprolog`).
- Epilog directives used outside of epilogs (outside of `.beginepilog` + `.endepilog` blocks).
- Beginning an epilog (`.beginepilog`) inside another epilog.
* `llvm-profgen` now supports ETM trace decoding using the OpenCSD library for Cortex-M targets. OpenCSD version 1.5.4 or higher is required.
* `llvm-objcopy` no longer corrupts the symbol table when `--update-section` is called for ELF files.
* `llvm-objcopy` now reports an error when `--compress-sections` requests unavailable zlib or zstd support.
The diagnostic is emitted while parsing the option, matching `--compress-debug-sections`.
Such commands may now fail even if the input file contains no sections that would be compressed.
* `FileCheck` option `-check-prefix` now accepts a comma-separated list of
prefixes, making it an alias of the existing `-check-prefixes` option.
* Add `-mtune` option to `llc`.
* Add `-mtune` option to `opt`.
* Fixed `llvm-ar` to correctly handle the `N` count modifier on Windows for archive members whose names differ only
in case (e.g. `FOO.OBJ` and `foo.obj`). Previously, `-N 2` would fail with "not found" even when two matching members existed.
* `llvm-readobj` and `llvm-readelf` now support the `--call-graph-section` option to dump the contents of the experimental [call graph section](CallGraphSection.md).
* Added support for hybrid ARM64X object files to `llvm-ar` and `llvm-lib`. When these files are added to
an archive, they are automatically split into separate native and EC members. Because the resulting members
are no longer hybrid object files, consumers of these archives do not need to support the hybrid format themselves.
### Changes to LLDB
* A new ``webinspector-wasm`` platform was added to list and attach to WebAssembly processes in Safari.
* The default for `load-script-from-symbol-file` was changed from `warn` to `trusted`. This means that scripts from
code signed dSYM bundles are now loaded automatically, while untrusted bundles continue to produce a warning.
* Pressing enter after `frame variable` repeats the command with an incremented `--depth` option, allowing quick
expansion of nested data.
* Breakpoint commands now accept `.` to refer to the location(s) at which the current thread is stopped. For
example, `breakpoint disable .` disables the just-hit breakpoint location. Another usage is to automate a
command to run at the current location: `breakpoint command add -o 'p my_var' .`.
* The `apropos` command now:
* Highlights matching keywords in its output when color is enabled.
* Searches the components of settings paths. For example `apropos qemu-user` will now
show `platform.plugin.qemu-user` as one of the results.
* Reading global and static variables on WebAssembly targets now works correctly. Previously their
values could not be read because data sections were mapped to the wrong address space.
* A new `diagnostics report` command (aliased `bugreport`) assembles a diagnostics bundle and files
a pre-filled GitHub issue, pointing at the bundle to attach. The GitHub reporter is built by
default and can be disabled with the `LLDB_ENABLE_GITHUB_BUG_REPORTER=OFF` CMake option.
#### Deprecated APIs
* ``SBTarget::GetDataByteSize()``, ``SBTarget::GetCodeByteSize()``, and ``SBSection::GetTargetByteSize()``
have been deprecated. They always return `1`, as before.
#### FreeBSD
##### Userspace Debugging
* Support for MIPS64 has been removed.
* The minimum assumed FreeBSD version is now 14. The effect of which is that watchpoints are
assumed to be supported.
##### Kernel Debugging
* The plugin that analyzes FreeBSD kernel core dump and live core has been renamed from `freebsd-kernel` to
`freebsd-kernel-core`. Remote kernel debugging is still handled by the `gdb-remote` plugin.
* Support for libfbsdvmcore has been removed. As a result, FreeBSD kernel dump debugging is now only
available on FreeBSD hosts. Live kernel debugging through the GDB remote protocol is still available
from any platform.
* Support for ARM, PPC64le, and RISCV64 has been added.
* The crashed thread is now automatically selected on start.
* Threads are listed in incrmental order by pid then by tid.
* Unread kernel messages saved in `msgbufp` are now printed when LLDB starts.
* Writing to the core is now supported. For safety reasons, this feature is off by default. To enable it,
`plugin.process.freebsd-kernel-core.read-only` must be set to `false`. This setting is available when
using `/dev/mem` or a kernel dump. However, since `kvm_write()` does not support writing to kernel dumps,
writes to a kernel dump will still fail when the setting is false.
* Added a command `process plugin refresh-threads`, enabling on-demand thread-list reconstruction from `/dev/mem`
so users can resync live kernel thread state without restarting LLDB. Note that this has no impact on full dump
and minidump files.
#### Linux
* On Arm Linux, the `tpidruro` register can now be read. Writing to this register is not supported.
* Thread local variables are now supported on Arm and RISC-V Linux if the program being debugged is using glibc.
* LLDB now supports AArch64 Linux systems that only have SME (as opposed to
SVE and SME). See the AArch64 Linux [documentation](https://lldb.llvm.org/use/aarch64-linux.html#sme-only-systems)
for more details.
Prior to this version of LLDB, there was a bug that caused LLDB to crash on
startup on these systems ([#138717](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/138717)).
This affected LLDB versions from 18 up to and including 22. 17 and below are not affected.
If you are using such a system and cannot change LLDB version, or want to package
an affected version in a way that is compatible with these systems, the issue
contains details of backports that could be done to fix the affected versions.
* When an ELF core file is loaded, LLDB now shows the command line that created the core file.
If you need to see it again, use the command `process status -v`.
* LLDB now supports debugging Linux [Memory Protection Keys](https://docs.kernel.org/core-api/protection-keys.html)
on AArch64 systems that have the Permission Overlay Extension (POE / FEAT_S1POE).
See the [LLDB on AArch64 Linux](https://lldb.llvm.org/use/aarch64-linux.html#permission-overlay-extension-poe)
guide for more information.
#### Windows
* Python 3.11 or later is now recommended for building LLDB 23 on Windows. From LLDB 24, Python 3.11 or later will be required.
* Messages from `OutputDebugString[A|W]` are now shown inline when using LLDB
from the command-line and in the output window when using lldb-dap.
* LLDB now uses `lldb-server.exe` to launch and manage the program being debugged,
instead of running it within LLDB's own process. To revert to the previous behavior, set the environment variable `LLDB_USE_LLDB_SERVER=0`.
### Changes to BOLT
### Changes to Sanitizers
* Add a random delay into ThreadSanitizer to help find rare thread interleavings.
