-<h3>NAME</h3>
-<tt>llc</tt>
-
-<h3>SYNOPSIS</h3>
-<tt>llc [options] [filename]</tt>
-
-<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
-
-The <tt>llc</tt> command compiles LLVM bytecode into assembly language for a
-specified architecture. The assembly language output can then be passed through
-a native assembler and linker to generate native code.
-<p>
-The choice of architecture for the output assembly code is determined as
-follows:
-
-<ul>
- <li>
- If the user has specified an architecture with the -m option, use that
- architecture.
- <p>
-
- <li>
- Examine the input LLVM bytecode file:
- <ul>
- <li>
- If it specifies little endian and a pointer size of 32 bits, select the
- x86 architecture.
- <p>
-
- <li>
- If it specifies big endian and a pointer size of 64 bit pointers,
- select the SparcV9 architecture.
- </ul>
- <p>
-
- <li>
- If <tt>llc</tt> was compiled on an architecture for which it can
- generate code, select the architecture upon which <tt>llc</tt> was
- compiled.
- <p>
-
- <li>
- Print a message to the user asking him or her to specify the output
- architecture explicitly.
-</ul>
-
-<p>
-
-If filename is not specified, or if filename is -, <tt>llc</tt> reads its input
-from standard input. Otherwise, it will read its input from filename.
-<p>
-
-If the -o option is left unspecified, then <tt>llc</tt> will send its output to standard
-output if the input is from standard input. If the -o option specifies -, then
-the output will also be sent to standard output.
-<p>
-
-If no -o option is specified and an input file other than - is specified, then
-<tt>llc</tt> creates the output filename as follows:
-
-<ul>
- <li>
- If the file ends in .bc, then the .bc suffix is removed, and the .s suffix
- is appended.
- <p>
- <li>
- Otherwise, the .s suffix is appended to the input filename.
-</ul>
-
-<h3>
-OPTIONS
-</h3>
-<ul>
- <li>-f
- <br>
- Overwrite output files
- <p>
-
- <li>-m&lt;arch&gt;
- <br>
- Specify the architecture for which to generate assembly. Valid
- architectures are:
-
- <dl compact>
- <dt> x86 </dt>
- <dd>IA-32 (Pentium and above)</dd>
-
- <dt> sparcv9 </dt>
- <dd>SPARC V9</dd>
-
- <dt> c </dt>
- <dd>Emit C code</dd>
- </dl>
- <p>
-
- <li>-o &lt;filename&gt;
- <br>
- Specify the output filename.
- <p>
-
- <li>-enable-correct-eh-support
- <br>
- Instruct the -lowerinvoke pass to insert code for correct exception handling
- support. This is expensive and is by default omitted for efficiency.
- <p>
-
- <li> -help
- <br>
- Print a summary of command line options.
- <p>
-
- <li> -stats
- <br>
- Print statistics.
- <p>
-
- <li> -time-passes
- <br>
- Record the amount of time needed for each pass and print it to standard
- error.
- <p>
-
-</ul>
-<h4>X86 Specific Options</h4>
-<ul>
- <li>-disable-fp-elim
- <br>
- Disable frame pointer elimination optimization.
- <p>
-
- <li>-disable-pattern-isel
- <br>
- Use the 'simple' X86 instruction selector (the default).
- <p>
-
- <li>-print-machineinstrs
- <br>
- Print generated machine code.
- <p>
-
- <li>-regalloc=&lt;ra&gt;
- <br>
- Specify the register allocator to use. The default is <i>local</i>.
- Valid register allocators are:
- <p>
- <dl compact>
- <dt> simple </dt>
- <dd>Very simple register allocator</dd>
-
- <dt> local </dt>
- <dd>Local register allocator</dd>
-
- <dt> linearscan </dt>
- <dd>Linear scan global register allocator (experimental)</dd>
- </dl>
-
- <li>-spiller=&lt;sp&gt;
- <br>
- Specify the spiller to use for register allocators that support it.
- Currently this option is used by the linear scan register
- allocator. The default is <i>local</i>.
- Valid spillers are:
- <p>
- <dl compact>
- <dt> simple </dt>
- <dd>Simple spiller</dd>
-
- <dt> local </dt>
- <dd>Local spiller</dd>
- </dl>
-
-</ul>
-
-<h4>Sparc Specific Options</h4>
-<ul>
- <li>-disable-peephole
- <br>
- Disable peephole optimization pass.
- <p>
-
- <li>-disable-sched
- <br>
- Disable local scheduling pass.
- <p>
-
- <li>-disable-strip
- <br>
- Do not strip the LLVM bytecode included in executable.
- <p>
-
- <li>-enable-maps
- <br>
- Emit LLVM-to-MachineCode mapping info to assembly.
- <p>
-</ul>

-<h3>EXIT STATUS</h3>
-
-If <tt>llc</tt> succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error occurs,
-it will exit with a non-zero value.
