<p>LLVM can be built as a cross-compiler, however some additional steps are
required.<sup><a href="#ccn_1">1</a></sup> To build a cross-compiler, use
these instructions:</p>
<ol>
<li>Configure and build LLVM Suite as a native compiler. You will need
just <tt>TableGen</tt> from that build.
<ul>
<li>If you have <tt>$LLVM_OBJ_ROOT=$LLVM_SRC_ROOT</tt> just execute
<tt>make -C utils/TableGen</tt> after configuring.</li>
<li>Otherwise you will need to monitor building process and terminate
it just after <tt>TableGen</tt> was built.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Copy the TableGen binary to somewhere safe (out of your build tree).
</li>
<li>Configure LLVM to build as a cross-compiler. To do this, supply the
configure script with <tt>--build</tt> and <tt>--host</tt> options that
are different. The values of these options must be legal target triples and
should specify a processor for which LLVM supports code generation.</li>
<li>Put the saved <tt>TableGen</tt> executable into the
into <tt>$LLVM_OBJ_ROOT/{BUILD_TYPE}/bin</tt> directory (e.g. into
<tt>.../Release/bin</tt> for a Release build).</li>
<li>Build LLVM as usual.</li>
</ol>

<li><a name="ccn_1">Cross-compiling</a> was tested only with Linux as
build platform and Windows as host using mingw32 cross-compiler. Other
combinations have not been tested.</li>
