Research direction

Start by reproducing the Windows build of the Level Zero loader with clang-cl.exe and inspect the compiler flags shown in the failure, especially /Qspectre and /MP. The work is done when the affected loader sources compile successfully with clang-cl without unused-argument errors.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The following errors occur when trying to set clang-cl.exe instead of cl.exe as host compiler:
