llvm-extract - extract a function from an LLVM module
=====================================================
SYNOPSIS
--------
**llvm-extract** [*options*] **--func** *function-name* [*filename*]
:program:`llvm-extract` [*options*] **--func** *function-name* [*filename*]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The **llvm-extract** command takes the name of a function and extracts it from
the specified LLVM bitcode file. It is primarily used as a debugging tool to
reduce test cases from larger programs that are triggering a bug.
The :program:`llvm-extract` command takes the name of a function and extracts
it from the specified LLVM bitcode file. 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,
**llvm-extract** will also remove unreachable global variables, prototypes, and
unused types.
The **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 **-o** option is specified (see below).
:program:`llvm-extract` will also remove unreachable global variables,
prototypes, and unused types.
The :program:`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 **-o** option is specified (see below).
OPTIONS
-------
**-f**
Enable binary output on terminals. Normally, **llvm-extract** will refuse to
write raw bitcode output if the output stream is a terminal. With this option,
**llvm-extract** will write raw bitcode regardless of the output device.

specified multiple times to extract multiple functions at once.
**--rfunc** *function-regular-expr*
Extract the function(s) matching *function-regular-expr* from the LLVM bitcode.
All functions matching the regular expression will be extracted. May be
specified multiple times.
**--glob** *global-name*

Extract the global variable named *global-name* from the LLVM bitcode. May be
specified multiple times to extract multiple global variables at once.

bitcode. All global variables matching the regular expression will be extracted.
May be specified multiple times.
bitcode. All global variables matching the regular expression will be
extracted. May be specified multiple times.
**-help**
Print a summary of command line options.
**-o** *filename*
Specify the output filename. If filename is "-" (the default), then
**llvm-extract** sends its output to standard output.
:program:`llvm-extract` sends its output to standard output.
**-S**
Write output in LLVM intermediate language (instead of bitcode).
EXIT STATUS
-----------
If **llvm-extract** succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error
If :program:`llvm-extract` succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error
occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value.

llvm-nm - list LLVM bitcode and object file's symbol table
==========================================================
SYNOPSIS
--------
:program:`llvm-nm` [*options*] [*filenames...*]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The :program:`llvm-nm` utility lists the names of symbols from the LLVM bitcode
files, object files, or :program:`ar` archives containing them, named on the
command line. Each symbol is listed along with some simple information about its
provenance. If no file name is specified, or *-* is used as a file name,
command line. Each symbol is listed along with some simple information about
its provenance. If no file name is specified, or *-* is used as a file name,
:program:`llvm-nm` will process a file on its standard input stream.
:program:`llvm-nm`'s default output format is the traditional BSD :program:`nm`
output format. Each such output record consists of an (optional) 8-digit
output format. Each such output record consists of an (optional) 8-digit
hexadecimal address, followed by a type code character, followed by a name, for
each symbol. One record is printed per line; fields are separated by spaces.
each symbol. One record is printed per line; fields are separated by spaces.
When the address is omitted, it is replaced by 8 spaces.
Type code characters currently supported, and their meanings, are as follows:
U
Named object is referenced but undefined in this bitcode file
C
Common (multiple definitions link together into one def)
W
Weak reference (multiple definitions link together into zero or one definitions)
t
Local function (text) object
T
Global function (text) object
d
Local data object
D
Global data object
?
Something unrecognizable
Because LLVM bitcode files typically contain objects that are not considered to
have addresses until they are linked into an executable image or dynamically
compiled "just-in-time", :program:`llvm-nm` does not print an address for any
symbol in an LLVM bitcode file, even symbols which are defined in the bitcode
file.
OPTIONS
-------
.. program:: llvm-nm
.. option:: -B (default)
Use BSD output format. Alias for :option:`--format=bsd`.
Use BSD output format. Alias for :option:`--format=bsd`.
.. option:: -P
Use POSIX.2 output format. Alias for :option:`--format=posix`.
Use POSIX.2 output format. Alias for :option:`--format=posix`.
.. option:: --debug-syms, -a
Show all symbols, even debugger only.
.. option:: --defined-only
Print only symbols defined in this file (as opposed to
symbols which may be referenced by objects in this file, but not
defined in this file.)
.. option:: --dynamic, -D
Display dynamic symbols instead of normal symbols.
.. option:: --extern-only, -g
Print only symbols whose definitions are external; that is, accessible
from other files.
.. option:: --format=format, -f format
Select an output format; *format* may be *sysv*, *posix*, or *bsd*. The default
Select an output format; *format* may be *sysv*, *posix*, or *bsd*. The default
is *bsd*.
.. option:: -help
Print a summary of command-line options and their meanings.
.. option:: --no-sort, -p
Shows symbols in order encountered.
.. option:: --numeric-sort, -n, -v
Sort symbols by address.
.. option:: --print-file-name, -A, -o
Precede each symbol with the file it came from.
.. option:: --print-size, -S
Show symbol size instead of address.
.. option:: --size-sort
Sort symbols by size.
.. option:: --undefined-only, -u
Print only symbols referenced but not defined in this file.
BUGS
----
* :program:`llvm-nm` cannot demangle C++ mangled names, like GNU :program:`nm`
can.
* :program:`llvm-nm` does not support the full set of arguments that GNU
:program:`nm` does.
EXIT STATUS
-----------
:program:`llvm-nm` exits with an exit code of zero.
