prevent an llvm developer from mistakenly thinking that just because the intrinsic has volatile flags that volatile operations can be converted to or folded into them. Platforms may rely on volatile loads and stores of natively supported data width to be executed as single instruction. When compiling C, this expectation likely holds for l-values of volatile primitive types with native hardware support, but not necessarily for aggregate types. The frontend upholds these expectations, which are not specified in the IR. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@173974 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
LLVM Documentation
==================
LLVM's documentation is written in reStructuredText, a lightweight
plaintext markup language (file extension `.rst`). While the
reStructuredText documentation should be quite readable in source form, it
is meant to be processed by the Sphinx documentation generation system to
create HTML pages which are hosted on <http://llvm.org/docs/> and updated
after every commit.
If you instead would like to generate and view the HTML locally, install
Sphinx <http://sphinx-doc.org/> and then do:
cd docs/
make -f Makefile.sphinx
$BROWSER _build/html/index.html
The mapping between reStructuredText files and generated documentation is
`docs/Foo.rst` <-> `_build/html/Foo.html` <-> `http://llvm.org/docs/Foo.html`.
If you are interested in writing new documentation, you will want to read
`SphinxQuickstartTemplate.rst` which will get you writing documentation
very fast and includes examples of the most important reStructuredText
markup syntax.
