I suggest this may be an options when LLVM_CONFIG is not specified.

CMakeLists.txt

Could we move find_package(LLVM) into here?

I have investigated what LLVMConfig.cmake actually provides.

With the installed tree, SRC_ROOT (LLVM_BUILD_MAIN_SRC_DIR) is not provided.
It shouldn't be included in installed LLVMConfig.cmake. Just "llvm-config --src-root" knows. And LLVM_MAIN_SRC_DIR should be CACHE, optional to be specified manually.

I suggest;

  1. Invoke "llvm-config --cmakedir --src-root" if LLVM_CONFIG is specified. (may be removed in future) Do not override LLVM_MAIN_SRC_DIR if it is defined.
  2. find_package(LLVM REQUIRED HINTS ${LLVM_CMAKE_PATH}). Without LLVM_CONFIG, CMake will seek LLVMConfig.cmake along CMake's search paths like -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.
  3. If LLVM_MAIN_SRC_DIR is unknown, invoke "llvm-config --src-root"

LLVM_MAIN_SRC_DIR is just required to build test tools in llvm/utils.

I suggest this may be an options when LLVM_CONFIG is not specified.

This is my eventual goal, but for now this is just a NFC clean up to make future changes more simple.
