If you look in the section on "Functions" in that page, it describes the "declare" statement in the second paragraph. Admittedly, it does not provide a formal syntax as it does for "define" but the information is there.

OK. Thanks.

It definitely better to write the definition of "declare" in a formatted form similar to "define". It is hard to notice it as it is currently written,

Syntax:

define [linkage] [PreemptionSpecifier] [visibility] [DLLStorageClass] [cconv] [ret attrs] @ ([argument list]) [(unnamed_addr|local_unnamed_addr)] [AddrSpace] [fn Attrs] [section "name"] [comdat [($name)]] [align N] [gc] [prefix Constant] [prologue Constant] [personality Constant] (!name !N)* { ... }
