The static files are needed at least to build the clang runtime. I had tried to get rid of them without success. Perhaps they could be moved to a "static" output if they're needed only at that time. > Is that big LLVM.so due to different build options on our side? Or is > it a radical upstream change (sounds unlikely, but who knows)? It's caused by -DLLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB=ON and -DLLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON, which is the supported configuration to build a shared library of LLVM (-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON is obsolete/deprecated) [0]. It also makes things conveniently easy to link to LLVM; you just need to link to '-lLLVM', and everything it needs is available.

Yes: the gremlin.scm code uses ‘file-dynamic-info’, which loads the
whole file in memory. Ridiculous.
We should instead mmap it (but there are no ‘mmap’ bindings in Guile,
yet) or arrange to load just the relevant parts (we’ll have to check but
maybe ‘file-dynamic-info’ can find everything it needs at the beginning
of a file, the PT_DYNAMIC segment.)
For example, with the patch below, things still appear to be fine with
LLVM:
--8<---cut here---start->8---
scheme@(guix build gremlin)> (file-dynamic-info

--8<---cut here---end--->8---
We could temporarily delete this phase for all 32-bit builds of LLVM.
But the crux of the problem is that llvm@15 has a single huge shared
library, unlike previous versions:
--8<---cut here---start->8---
$ du -hL /gnu/store/bgqdvvi7k6l255332rfawgjmn2hpn13r-llvm-15.0.4/lib/*.so
133M
/gnu/store/bgqdvvi7k6l255332rfawgjmn2hpn13r-llvm-15.0.4/lib/libLLVM-15.0.4.so
96K /gnu/store/bgqdvvi7k6l255332rfawgjmn2hpn13r-llvm-15.0.4/lib/libLTO.so
16K
/gnu/store/bgqdvvi7k6l255332rfawgjmn2hpn13r-llvm-15.0.4/lib/libRemarks.so
--8<---cut here---end--->8---
(It also has tons of .a files, which shouldn’t be there.)
Is that big LLVM.so due to different build options on our side? Or is
it a radical upstream change (sounds unlikely, but who knows)?
Thanks,
Ludo’.
