Getting rid of the usage of android ndk in rustc::driver #5915

Closed

Description

@ILyoan

Currently, there is an android hack on rustc:driver to compile binaries through Android NDK due to lack of ARM unwind supporting of LLVM.
Now LLVM ARM unwind supporting is in progress here. Once it is landed, we can remove the hack.

    The patch for LLVM ARM unwind supporting is landed by r179591

    Now Android NDK can be removed from rustc::driver but this involves upgrade of LLVM.

    also LLVM upgrade bug #7115 seems related, in light of ILyoan's comment

    Dup of #8809, Closing this because #8809 has more recent information.
