llvm-msvc

llvm-msvc is a compiler based on LLVM that isn't limited by MSVC. The aim is to provide the same experience as MSVC on Windows. You can use naked functions anywhere and also add custom support like obfuscation.

Features:

• Compatible with MSVC syntax as much as possible.
• Improved SEH stability.
• Added some special Intrinsic functions(__vmx_vmread/__vmx_write).
• Supports x64/ARM64 windows drivers.
• Supports AArch64 android GKI drivers.
• Allows naked X64 inline asm.
• Enables multiple cores compilation.
• Supports /MP when precompiled headers are present.
• Supports /GL (LTO optimization).

FAQ

Why do we make this project?

• Clang follows the GCC standard, while MSVC has its own unique syntax.
• Some of the code is pretty hacky. Can't submit it officially.
• Waiting for the official fix takes too long.

How to use llvm-msvc?

• Install Visual Studio 2015-2022 (I recommend using 2022) along with WDK11.
• Download and install llvm-msvc from the following repository llvm-msvc_X86_64_installer-PDB.exe.
• Create your Windows driver project and choose "LLVM-MSVC_v143_KernelMode" as your platform toolset.
• Compile your project.
