lli - directly execute programs from LLVM bitcode
 | 
						|
=================================================
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. program:: lli
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
SYNOPSIS
 | 
						|
--------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
:program:`lli` [*options*] [*filename*] [*program args*]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
-----------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
:program:`lli` directly executes programs in LLVM bitcode format.  It takes a program
 | 
						|
in LLVM bitcode format and executes it using a just-in-time compiler or an
 | 
						|
interpreter.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
:program:`lli` is *not* an emulator. It will not execute IR of different architectures
 | 
						|
and it can only interpret (or JIT-compile) for the host architecture.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The JIT compiler takes the same arguments as other tools, like :program:`llc`,
 | 
						|
but they don't necessarily work for the interpreter.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If `filename` is not specified, then :program:`lli` reads the LLVM bitcode for the
 | 
						|
program from standard input.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The optional *args* specified on the command line are passed to the program as
 | 
						|
arguments.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
GENERAL OPTIONS
 | 
						|
---------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -fake-argv0=executable
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 Override the ``argv[0]`` value passed into the executing program.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -force-interpreter={false,true}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 If set to true, use the interpreter even if a just-in-time compiler is available
 | 
						|
 for this architecture. Defaults to false.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -help
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 Print a summary of command line options.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -load=pluginfilename
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 Causes :program:`lli` to load the plugin (shared object) named *pluginfilename* and use
 | 
						|
 it for optimization.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -stats
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 Print statistics from the code-generation passes. This is only meaningful for
 | 
						|
 the just-in-time compiler, at present.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -time-passes
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 Record the amount of time needed for each code-generation pass and print it to
 | 
						|
 standard error.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -version
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 Print out the version of :program:`lli` and exit without doing anything else.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
TARGET OPTIONS
 | 
						|
--------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -mtriple=target triple
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 Override the target triple specified in the input bitcode file with the
 | 
						|
 specified string.  This may result in a crash if you pick an
 | 
						|
 architecture which is not compatible with the current system.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -march=arch
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 Specify the architecture for which to generate assembly, overriding the target
 | 
						|
 encoded in the bitcode file.  See the output of **llc -help** for a list of
 | 
						|
 valid architectures.  By default this is inferred from the target triple or
 | 
						|
 autodetected to the current architecture.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -mcpu=cpuname
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 Specify a specific chip in the current architecture to generate code for.
 | 
						|
 By default this is inferred from the target triple and autodetected to
 | 
						|
 the current architecture.  For a list of available CPUs, use:
 | 
						|
 **llvm-as < /dev/null | llc -march=xyz -mcpu=help**
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -mattr=a1,+a2,-a3,...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 Override or control specific attributes of the target, such as whether SIMD
 | 
						|
 operations are enabled or not.  The default set of attributes is set by the
 | 
						|
 current CPU.  For a list of available attributes, use:
 | 
						|
 **llvm-as < /dev/null | llc -march=xyz -mattr=help**
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
FLOATING POINT OPTIONS
 | 
						|
----------------------

 | 
						|

 | 
						|
.. option:: -enable-no-nans-fp-math

 | 
						|
 Enable optimizations that assume no NAN values.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -enable-unsafe-fp-math
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 precision.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. option:: -soft-float
 | 
						|
 |

 Causes :program:`lli` to generate software floating point library calls instead of
 | 
						|
 equivalent hardware instructions.
