It is primarily used as a debugging tool to +reduce test cases from larger programs that are triggering a bug. + +In addition to extracting the bitcode of the specified function, +B<llvm-extract> will also remove unreachable global variables, prototypes, and +unused types. + +The B<llvm-extract> command reads its input from standard input if filename is +omitted or if filename is -. The output is always written to standard output, +unless the B<-o> option is specified (see below). + +=head1 OPTIONS + +=over + +=item B<-f> + +Enable binary output on terminals. Normally, B<llvm-extract> will refuse to +write raw bitcode output if the output stream is a terminal. With this option, +B<llvm-extract> will write raw bitcode regardless of the output device. + +=item B<--func> I<function-name> + +Extract the function named I<function-name> from the LLVM bitcode. May be +specified multiple times to extract multiple functions at once. + +=item B<--glob> I<global-name> + +Extract the global variable named I<global-name> from the LLVM bitcode. May be +specified multiple times to extract multiple global variables at once. + +=item B<-help> + +Print a summary of command line options. + +=item B<-o> I<filename> + +Specify the output filename. If filename is "-" (the default), then +B<llvm-extract> sends its output to standard output. + +=item B<-S> + +Write output in LLVM intermediate language (instead of bitcode). + +=back + +=head1 EXIT STATUS + +If B<llvm-extract> succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error +occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<bugpoint|bugpoint> + +=head1 AUTHORS + +Maintained by the LLVM Team (L<http://llvm.org>). + +=cut |
