Majority of targets use "unknown" vendor and changing it from "unknown" to omitted doesn't make sense.
From the LLVM docs (https://clang.llvm.org/docs/CrossCompilation.html#target-triple):
>Most of the time it can be omitted (and Unknown) will be assumed, which sets the defaults for the specified architecture.
>When a parameter is not important, it can be omitted, or you can choose unknown and the defaults will be used. If you choose a parameter that Clang doesn’t know, like blerg, it’ll ignore and assume unknown
Also change target_pointer_width to pointer_width.
Preparation for a subsequent type change of
target_pointer_width to an integer together with a rename
to pointer_width.
On its own, this commit breaks the build. I don't like making
build-breaking commits, but in this instance I believe that it
makes review easier, as the "real" changes of this PR can be
seen much more easily.
Result of running:
find compiler/rustc_target/src/spec/ -type f -exec sed -i -e 's/target_pointer_width: "\(.*\)"\..*,/pointer_width: \1,/g' {} \;
