llvm dev - Jan 2013 - [LLVMdev] ARM interrupt attributes (IRQ and FIQ) support

Hello,
As part of a try to make clang/llvm build Rockbox, we realized that clang
and llvm have no support for irq/fiq calling convention on ARM which is
implemented using the interrupt("IRQ") and interrupt("FIQ")
attributes on
GCC. Although it is always possible to implement those in assembly, I would
like to know if there has been some work done to implement this the same
way GCC does, or if there is no plan to support this in future ? I am no
llvm expert but with some help I think I could implement this if it is a
wanted feature.
Thanks,

Amaury Pouly

The answer is easy - noone needed them in the past, thus they were not
implemented...
