Depends on what you mean by standard library. compiler-rt provides (most) of what LLVM may use in terms of library calls. This is primarily used for some complex high level functions like complex division and for things missing from the instruction set, e.g. if there is no 64bit division operation, a function call will be generated by the backend. LLVM does not provide a libc. That's a completely different topic.
