In viewtopic.php?f=2&t=11412&p=53684&hilit=llvm#p46446 there is a description of 10 patches that have been sent to add ESP32/ESP8266 support to LLVM. These patches were submitted 6 months ago and appear to have stalled with a number of changes being requested by reviewers having gone unresponded to.

What is the intention with continuing this LLVM suport addition? Is this now abandoned?

We released our fork with updated patch set https://github.com/espressif/llvm-project based on LLVM 9.0.1 (branch xtensa_release_9.0.1). Now we are preparing them for LLVM phabricator.

BTW. What "changes being requested by reviewers" do you mean? As far as understand review process has stopped due to the lack of official Xtensa arch spec (https://reviews.llvm.org/D64830/new/). So we have to prepare some description on it (in the nearest plans) basing on public info (GCC,binutils etc.) to kick off the process.
