Stephen Tozer 2dc2290860 Revert new debug info format commits:
"[Flang] Update test to not check for tail calls on debug intrinsics" &
"Reapply#3 "[RemoveDIs] Load into new debug info format by default in LLVM (#89799)"

Recent updates to flang have added debug info generation via MLIR, a path
which currently does not support debug records. The patch that enables
debug records by default (and a small followup patch) are thus being
reverted until the MLIR path has been fixed.

Flang

Flang is a ground-up implementation of a Fortran front end written in modern C++. It started off as the f18 project (https://github.com/flang-compiler/f18) with an aim to replace the previous flang project (https://github.com/flang-compiler/flang) and address its various deficiencies. F18 was subsequently accepted into the LLVM project and rechristened as Flang.

Please note that flang is not ready yet for production usage.

Getting Started

Read more about flang in the docs directory. Start with the compiler overview.

To better understand Fortran as a language and the specific grammar accepted by flang, read Fortran For C Programmers and flang's specifications of the Fortran grammar and the OpenMP grammar.

Treatment of language extensions is covered in this document.

To understand the compilers handling of intrinsics, see the discussion of intrinsics.

To understand how a flang program communicates with libraries at runtime, see the discussion of runtime descriptors.

If you're interested in contributing to the compiler, read the style guide and also review how flang uses modern C++ features.

If you are interested in writing new documentation, follow LLVM's Markdown style guide.

Consult the Getting Started with Flang for information on building and running flang.
