CMake optionslink

Frequently-used CMake optionslink

CMAKE_BUILD_TYPElink

  • type: STRING

Sets the build type. Possible values are Release, Debug, RelWithDebInfo and MinSizeRel. If unset, build type is set to Release.

CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILERlink

  • type: STRING

This is the command that will be used as the <LANG> compiler, which are C and CXX in IREE. These variables are set to compile IREE with clang or rather clang++. Once set, these variables can not be changed.

IREE-specific CMake optionslink

This gives a brief explanation of IREE specific CMake options and variables.

IREE_ENABLE_RUNTIME_TRACINGlink

  • type: BOOL

Enables instrumented runtime tracing. Defaults to OFF.

IREE_ENABLE_COMPILER_TRACINGlink

  • type: BOOL

Enables instrumented compiler tracing. This requires that IREE_ENABLE_RUNTIME_TRACING also be set. Defaults to OFF.

IREE_BUILD_COMPILERlink

  • type: BOOL

Builds the IREE compiler. Defaults to ON.

IREE_BUILD_TESTSlink

  • type: BOOL

Builds IREE unit tests. Defaults to ON.

IREE_BUILD_DOCSlink

  • type: BOOL

Builds IREE documentation files. Defaults to OFF.

IREE_BUILD_SAMPLESlink

  • type: BOOL

Builds IREE sample projects. Defaults to ON.

IREE_BUILD_PYTHON_BINDINGSlink

  • type: BOOL

Builds the IREE python bindings. Defaults to OFF.

IREE_BUILD_BINDINGS_TFLITElink

  • type: BOOL

Builds the IREE TFLite C API compatibility shim. Defaults to ON.

IREE_BUILD_BINDINGS_TFLITE_JAVAlink

  • type: BOOL

Builds the IREE TFLite Java bindings with the C API compatibility shim. Defaults to ON.

IREE_BUILD_EXPERIMENTAL_REMOTINGlink

  • type: BOOL

Builds experimental remoting component. Defaults to OFF.

IREE_HAL_DRIVER_DEFAULTSlink

  • type: BOOL

Default setting for each IREE_HAL_DRIVER_* option.

IREE_HAL_DRIVER_*link

  • type: BOOL

Individual options enabling the build for each runtime HAL driver.

IREE_TARGET_BACKEND_DEFAULTSlink

  • type: BOOL

Default setting for each IREE_TARGET_BACKEND_* option.

IREE_TARGET_BACKEND_*link

  • type: BOOL

Individual options enabling the build for each compiler target backend.

IREE_INPUT_*link

  • type: BOOL

Individual options enabling each set of input dialects.

IREE_OUTPUT_FORMAT_Clink

  • type: BOOL

Enables the vm-c compiler output format, using MLIR EmitC. Defaults to ON.

IREE_DEV_MODElink

  • type: BOOL

Configure settings to optimize for IREE development (as opposed to CI or release). Defaults to OFF. For example, this will downgrade some compiler diagnostics from errors to warnings.

IREE_ENABLE_LLDlink

  • type: BOOL

Use lld when linking. Defaults to OFF. This option is equivalent to -DIREE_USE_LINKER=lld. The option IREE_ENABLE_LLD and IREE_USE_LINKER can not be set at the same time.

IREE_ENABLE_ASANlink

  • type: BOOL

Enable address sanitizer if the current build type is Debug and the compiler supports it.

IREE_ENABLE_MSANlink

  • type: BOOL

Enable memory sanitizer if the current build type is Debug and the compiler supports it.

IREE_ENABLE_TSANlink

  • type: BOOL

Enable thread sanitizer if the current build type is Debug and the compiler supports it.

IREE_ENABLE_UBSANlink

  • type: BOOL

Enable undefiend behavior sanitizer if the current build type is Debug and the compiler supports it.

Cross-compilationlink

When cross compiling (using a toolchain file like android.toolchain.cmake), first build and install IREE's tools for your host configuration, then use the IREE_HOST_BIN_DIR CMake option to point the cross compiled build at the host tools.
