RustAs usual, I’ve updated Rust to use LLVM 20 and then LLVM 21.
Similar to all recent updates, this came with compile-time improvements (LLVM 20, LLVM 21).
PackagingThe LLVM team at Red Hat has shared responsibility for packaging LLVM on Fedora, CentOS Stream, and RHEL.
LLVM area team and project councilThis year, LLVM adopted a new governance process, which includes elected area teams.
I’ve participated in various early discussions for this group and wrote up a draft provenance model for LLVM.
