llvm-as1
Llvm assembler
Usage
llvm-as [options]
[filename]
Overview
llvm-as is the LLVM assembler. It reads a file containing human-readable LLVM assembly language, translates it to LLVM bitcode, and writes the result into a file or to standard output.
If filename is omitted or is -, then llvm-as reads its input from standard input.
If an output file is not specified with the -o option, then llvm-as sends its output to a file or standard output by following these rules:
- •
-
If the input is standard input, then the output is standard output.
- •
-
If the input is a file that ends with
.ll, then the output file is of the same name, except that the suffix is changed to.bc.
- •
-
If the input is a file that does not end with the
.llsuffix, then the output file has the same name as the input file, except that the.bcsuffix is appended.
Options
-
-f -
Enable binary output on terminals. Normally,
llvm-aswill refuse to write raw bitcode output if the output stream is a terminal. With this option,llvm-aswill write raw bitcode regardless of the output device.
-
-help -
Print a summary of command line options.
-
-o filename -
Specify the output file name. If filename is
-, thenllvm-assends its output to standard output.
Exit status
If llvm-as succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value.
