Enum LlvmError 

pub enum LlvmError {
    Parse(String),
    Analyze(usize),
    UnsupportedSignature(String),
    Codegen(String),
}

Top-level error type for the LLVM AOT backend. Construction sites fall into four buckets:

• LlvmError::Parse — the parser rejected the source. Only produced through from_source paths; the direct-IR entry points cannot hit this arm.
• LlvmError::Analyze — analyzer rejected the source. Reports the diagnostic count instead of the full message bundle to keep the error variant cheap to clone; hosts that want the full diagnostic stream should drive relon_analyzer::analyze directly.
• LlvmError::UnsupportedSignature — the IR module’s entry signature is outside the Phase A bootstrap envelope (legacy (I64...) -> I64). Buffer-protocol entries fall here today.
• LlvmError::Codegen — the LLVM emitter / JIT engine refused the input (unsupported op, IR builder failure, JIT setup failure). The carried String is the inkwell builder’s own message; we don’t try to map it to a typed enum at this stage.

Variants

Parse(String)

Parser failure. Only reachable through from_source-style entry points (Phase B+); direct-IR paths skip this stage.

Analyze(usize)

Analyzer rejected the source with count errors. Phase A returns the count so the relon facade can wrap it without having to allocate a diagnostic vector.

UnsupportedSignature(String)

The IR module’s entry function does not match the Phase A envelope (legacy (I64...) -> I64). The carried string names the rejected param / return type so the host can decide whether to retry through the cranelift backend.

Codegen(String)

LLVM emitter / JIT engine surfaced an error during compile. Wraps the inkwell builder message rather than a typed enum — Phase A keeps the surface narrow so the bootstrap test can fail loudly without locking us into a permanent error taxonomy.

Trait Implementations

fn description(&self) -> &str

👎Deprecated since 1.42.0:

use the Display impl or to_string()

fn cause(&self) -> Option<&dyn Error>

👎Deprecated since 1.33.0:

replaced by Error::source, which can support downcasting
