The previous description of the noalias attribute did not accurately specify the implemented semantics, and the terminology used differed unnecessarily from that used by the C specification to define the semantics of restrict. For the argument attribute, the semantics can be precisely specified in terms of objects accessed through pointers based on the arguments, and this is now what is done. Saying that the semantics are 'slightly weaker' than that provided by C99 restrict is not really useful without further elaboration, so that has been removed from the sentence. noalias on a return value is really used to mean that the function is malloc-like (and, in fact, we use this attribute to represent __attribute__((malloc)) in Clang), and this is a stronger guarantee than that provided by restrict (because it is a property of the pointed-to memory region, not just a guarantee on object access). Clarifying this is relevant to fixing (and was motivated by the discussion on) PR21556. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@222497 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 mostly 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. Manpage output is also supported, see below. 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. Manpage Output =============== Building the manpages is similar to building the HTML documentation. The primary difference is to use the `man` makefile target, instead of the default (which is `html`). Sphinx then produces the man pages in the directory `_build/man/`. cd docs/ make -f Makefile.sphinx man man -l _build/man/FileCheck.1 The correspondence between .rst files and man pages is `docs/CommandGuide/Foo.rst` <-> `_build/man/Foo.1`. These .rst files are also included during HTML generation so they are also viewable online (as noted above) at e.g. `http://llvm.org/docs/CommandGuide/Foo.html`. Checking links ============== The reachibility of external links in the documentation can be checked by running: cd docs/ make -f Makefile.sphinx linkcheck
