Hello, I haven't found any relevant info in the docs about this. I'm trying to build LLVM 3.7.1 on OS X but it fails in the configuration phase. Here are the relevant parts of the output: $ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/Volumes/HD2/jenkins/workspace/LLVMDev/label/osxbuild/miniconda/envs/_build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD=host -DLLVM_INCLUDE_TESTS=OFF -DLLVM_INCLUDE_UTILS=OFF -DLLVM_INCLUDE_DOCS=OFF -DLLVM_INCLUDE_EXAMPLES=OFF .. -- The C compiler identification is AppleClang 4.1.0.4211166 -- The CXX compiler identification is AppleClang 4.1.0.4211166 [...] -- Looking for __atomic_fetch_add_4 in atomic -- Looking for __atomic_fetch_add_4 in atomic - not found CMake Error at cmake/modules/CheckAtomic.cmake:36 (message): Host compiler appears to require libatomic, but cannot find it. Call Stack (most recent call first): cmake/config-ix.cmake:291 (include) CMakeLists.txt:360 (include) How is libatomic supposed to be installed on OS X? (perhaps it's somewhat of a newbie question - I'm not a OS X user...) Thank you, Antoine.

You might be able to find more details about what's wrong by looking at CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log in your build directory.> Thank you, > > Antoine. > > > _______________________________________________ > LLVM Developers mailing list > llvm-dev at lists.llvm.org > http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/llvm-dev
Antoine, The llvm 3.7.1 build requires Apple Clang 5.0 or later which can be gotten from Xcode 5.1 on 10.8. In general, it is best to keep your OS X upgraded to the latest release supported on the hardware for building llvm. For example, llvm 3.8 currently requires Xcode 7 (available on OS X 10.10 or 10.11) in order to build the new tsan support in compiler-rt or using -DLLVM_BUILD_EXTERNAL_COMPILER_RT:BOOL=ON to use the just built compiler.
