Tivoization (/ ˌ t iː v oʊ ɪ ˈ z eɪ ʃ ən,-aɪ-/) is the practice of designing hardware that incorporates software under the terms of a copyleft software license like the GNU General Public License (GNU GPL), but uses hardware restrictions or digital rights management (DRM) to prevent users from running modified versions of the software on that hardware.
LLVM can accept the IR from the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) toolchain, allowing it to be used with a wide array of extant compiler front-ends written for that project. LLVM can also be built with gcc after version 7.5. [37] LLVM can also generate relocatable machine code at compile-time or link-time or even binary machine code at runtime.

The GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) is a free-software license published by the Free Software Foundation (FSF). The license allows developers and companies to use and integrate a software component released under the LGPL into their own (even proprietary) software without being required by the terms of a strong copyleft license to release the source code of their own components.
The GNU General Public Licenses (GNU GPL, or simply GPL) are a series of widely used free software licenses, or copyleft licenses, that guarantee end users the freedoms to run, study, share, or modify the software. [7] The GPL was the first copyleft license available for general use.
LLVM targets many platforms, however its main focus is not machine-dependent code generation; instead a more high-level typed assembly-like intermediate representation is used. Nevertheless for the most common targets the LLVM MC (machine code) project provides an assembler both as an integrated component of the compilers and as an external tool.
Clang/LLVM can compile a working FreeBSD kernel. [33] [34] 16 March 2009: Clang/LLVM can compile a working DragonFly BSD kernel. [35] [36] 23 October 2009: Clang 1.0 released, with LLVM 2.6 for the first time. December 2009: Code generation for C and Objective-C reach production quality. Support for C++ and Objective-C++ still incomplete.
