The difference is about the efficiency and the interfaces doesn't change a lot. Previously, in the one phase compilation mode, what clang did actually is: ``` x.cppm -> x.pcm -> x.o ``` That said we compile `x.o` from `x.pcm`. There is a reading BMI process. The goal of the patch is to remove the reading process. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/71773 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
