105- The clang supports "-triple" and "-arch" options. At most one -triple option may
106- be specified, while multiple -arch options can be specified. Both are optional.

108108The "selection of target" behavior is defined as follows:
109109
110- (1) If the user does not specify -triple:
111-
112- (a) If no -arch options are specified, the target triple used is the host
113- triple (in llvm/Config/config.h).
114-
115- (b) If one or more -arch's are specified (and no -triple), then there is
116- one triple for each -arch, where the specified arch is substituted
117- for the arch in the host triple. Example:
118-
119- host triple = i686-apple-darwin9
120- command: clang -arch ppc -arch ppc64 ...
121- triples used: ppc-apple-darwin9 ppc64-apple-darwin9
122-
123- (2) The user does specify a -triple (only one allowed):
124-
125- (a) If no -arch options are specified, the triple specified by -triple
126- is used. E.g clang -triple i686-apple-darwin9
127-
128- (b) If one or more -arch options are specified, then the triple specified
129- by -triple is used as the primary target, and the arch's specified
130- by -arch are used to create secondary targets. For example:
131-
132- clang -triple i686-apple-darwin9 -arch ppc -arch ppc64
133-
134- has the following targets:
135-
136- i686-apple-darwin9 (primary target)
137- ppc-apple-darwin9 (secondary target)
138- ppc64-apple-darwin9 (secondary target)
139-
140- The secondary targets are used in the 'portability' model (see below).
110+ (1) If the user does not specify -triple, we default to the host triple.
111+ (2) If the user specifies a -arch, that overrides the arch in the host or
112+ specified triple.
