No. It enables AMDGPU target these days, which is for the modern stuff |
| 10 |
and very much needed by them. |
| 11 |
r600 stuff was in the llvm 3.3-3.6 era, which was used by old |
| 12 |
experimental mesa[r600-llvm-compiler] as an alternative shader compiler |
| 13 |
for r600 instead of builtin mesa stuff. This work has been ditched long |
| 14 |
ago afaik. |
| 15 |
Instead now VIDEO_CARDS=radeon is required on llvm for radeonsi and |
| 16 |
later AMD GPUs for _ANY_ shader compiler support at all, plus other |
| 17 |
things (from it adding AMDGPU to llvm targets in current ebuild). |

People with radeonsi graphics set VIDEO_CARDS=radeon already, I'm a bit |
| 23 |
reserved about having to force them to set some LLVM_TARGETS=radeon or |
| 24 |
LLVM_TARGETS=amdgpu on top of that to satisfy some USE depends on |
| 25 |
mesa[video_cards_radeon]. |
