Heads up! #OpenBSD/sparc64 base has switched to LLVM/Clang 22 by default! :flan_hurrah:​

https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=178726091916648&w=2

This was the last of the significant architectures to switch, with the last few remaining architectures likely to remain on GCC4.


./bsd.own.mk:GCC4_ARCH=alpha hppa m88k sh


Most of OpenBSD’s supported platforms are now LLVM/Clang by default, and indeed switched many years ago. LLVM/Clang was also been available experimentally on sparc64 alongside gcc since 2018.


./bsd.own.mk:CLANG_ARCH=aarch64 amd64 arm i386 mips64 powerpc powerpc64 riscv64 sparc64


(For those keeping track, that’s more than FreeBSD or other OS  today has done to advance the LLVM/Clang "non-gcc" compiler ecosystem.)
