Just a reminder, I made this guide a while back which can be useful for some.

Luckily, llvm developers provided these repositories with fresh nightly packages: http://apt.llvm.org
For Debian testing I used one for unstable, and it worked well. For instance, for building Mesa you can install:
llvm-7-dev
libclang-7-dev
Debian packages commonly give snapshot versions simple numbers like 7, while release versions use 6.0 and the like.
After you build Mesa and place it in your custom directory, it's also a good idea to extract .so files from the current libllvm-<ver> snapshot package and place it in the same directory. This way your bundle will be consistent until your next Mesa building.

So far I'm using
--enable-llvm-shared-libs=no
I guess soon I'll need to switch to Meson anyway. Debian will need to catch up.

I already explained reasons why I don't want to install custom Mesa from repos - it replaces the default one. Of course I could go ahead and make my own Debian packages for custom installation, that don't interfere with default Mesa, but that's an extra step. May be I'll do that at some point.

That can also depend on how destabilizing new libdrm is. I.e. if new libdrm is stable enough, it might be OK replace it globally. But it would be better to figure out how to do it in the same Mesa above is used, i.e. isolated usage.
I usually do that on mesa RC releases.

you need llvm8 and some other packages from home:khnazile.
