Jonas Hahnfeld 4a0909d000 Unify build documentation and convert to reStructuredText
We now have several options that apply for both libraries and they
shouldn't be documented in multiple files. When already merging
the two Build_With_CMake.txt documents, convert them to
reStructuredText which is used for all of LLVM's documentation.

    README for the LLVM* OpenMP* Offloading Runtime Library (libomptarget)
    ======================================================================

How to Build the LLVM* OpenMP* Offloading Runtime Library (libomptarget)
========================================================================
In-tree build:

$ cd where-you-want-to-live
Check out openmp (libomptarget lives under ./libomptarget) into llvm/projects
$ cd where-you-want-to-build
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake path/to/llvm -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=<C compiler> -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=<C++ compiler>
$ make omptarget

Out-of-tree build:

$ cd where-you-want-to-live
Check out openmp (libomptarget lives under ./libomptarget)
$ cd where-you-want-to-live/openmp/libomptarget
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake path/to/openmp -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=<C compiler> -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=<C++ compiler>
$ make

For details about building, please look at README.rst in the parent directory.

Architectures Supported
=======================
The current library has been only tested in Linux operating system and the
following host architectures:
* Intel(R) 64 architecture
* IBM(R) Power architecture (big endian)
* IBM(R) Power architecture (little endian)
* ARM(R) AArch64 architecture (little endian)

The currently supported offloading device architectures are:
* Intel(R) 64 architecture (generic 64-bit plugin - mostly for testing purposes)
* IBM(R) Power architecture (big endian) (generic 64-bit plugin - mostly for testing purposes)
* IBM(R) Power architecture (little endian) (generic 64-bit plugin - mostly for testing purposes)
* ARM(R) AArch64 architecture (little endian) (generic 64-bit plugin - mostly for testing purposes)
* CUDA(R) enabled 64-bit NVIDIA(R) GPU architectures

Supported RTL Build Configurations
==================================
Supported Architectures: Intel(R) 64, IBM(R) Power 7 and Power 8

              ---------------------------
              |   gcc      |   clang    |
--------------|------------|------------|
| Linux* OS   |  Yes(1)    |  Yes(2)    |
-----------------------------------------

(1) gcc version 4.8.2 or later is supported.
(2) clang version 3.7 or later is supported.


Front-end Compilers that work with this RTL
===========================================

The following compilers are known to do compatible code generation for
this RTL:
  - clang (from https://github.com/clang-ykt )
  - clang (development branch at http://clang.llvm.org - several features still
    under development)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Notices
=======
This library and related compiler support is still under development, so the
employed interface is likely to change in the future.
