1 //! Management of the encoding of LLVM bytecode into rlibs
3 //! This module contains the management of encoding LLVM bytecode into rlibs,
4 //! primarily for the usage in LTO situations. Currently the compiler will
5 //! unconditionally encode LLVM-IR into rlibs regardless of what's happening
6 //! elsewhere, so we currently compress the bytecode via deflate to avoid taking
7 //! up too much space on disk.
9 //! After compressing the bytecode we then have the rest of the format to
10 //! basically deal with various bugs in various archive implementations. The
11 //! format currently is:
13 //! RLIB LLVM-BYTECODE OBJECT LAYOUT
16 //! 0..10 "RUST_OBJECT" encoded in ASCII
17 //! 11..14 format version as little-endian u32
18 //! 15..19 the length of the module identifier string
19 //! 20..n the module identifier string
20 //! n..n+8 size in bytes of deflate compressed LLVM bitcode as
22 //! n+9.. compressed LLVM bitcode
23 //! ? maybe a byte to make this whole thing even length
