URL: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/918ef312d1fda56ff783f3974b5a193542e5497c DIFF: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/918ef312d1fda56ff783f3974b5a193542e5497c.diff LOG: [C99] Claim full conformance to C99 We now believe we know the status of all the proposals that went into C99. There are three entries marked Partial: N448 restricted pointers ------------------------ Clang fully conforms to the standard requirements, but LLVM support could be improved to support more than just restricted pointers used as function parameters. N693 complex and imaginary support in <complex.h> ------------------------------------------------- Clang supports _Complex but not _Imaginary. Clang does not attempt to implement Annex G, so a lack of _Imaginary is not necessary for conformance to C99. It's also worth noting that C2y is anticipated to remove support for _Imaginary (see WG14 N3274 which was adopted at the June 2024 meeting). However, support for _Complex requires runtime support and compiler-rt is not supported on all targets (notably, Windows). (Doc # unknown) IEC 60559 support --------------------------------- Clang largely conforms to the requirements in Annex F, but there are edge cases that are incorrect. However, Clang does not predefine the __STDC_IEC_559__ macro and so we don't claim to conform to Annex F yet. Because all three of these partial entries are technically conforming, it seems reasonable to claim full conformance for C99.
