The tool reads a bitcode file (such as generated with the \fBllvm-as\fR tool) and produces a statistical report on the contents of the bitcode file. The tool can also dump a low level but human readable version of the bitcode file. This tool is probably not of much interest or utility except for those working directly with the bitcode file format. Most \s-1LLVM\s0 users can just ignore this tool. .PP If \fIfilename\fR is omitted or is \f(CW\*(C`\-\*(C'\fR, then \fBllvm-bcanalyzer\fR reads its input from standard input. This is useful for combining the tool into a pipeline. Output is written to the standard output. .SH "OPTIONS" .IX Header "OPTIONS" .IP "\fB\-nodetails\fR" 4 .IX Item "-nodetails" Causes \fBllvm-bcanalyzer\fR to abbreviate its output by writing out only a module level summary. The details for individual functions are not displayed. .IP "\fB\-dump\fR" 4 .IX Item "-dump" Causes \fBllvm-bcanalyzer\fR to dump the bitcode in a human readable format. This format is significantly different from \s-1LLVM\s0 assembly and provides details about the encoding of the bitcode file. .IP "\fB\-verify\fR" 4 .IX Item "-verify" Causes \fBllvm-bcanalyzer\fR to verify the module produced by reading the bitcode. This ensures that the statistics generated are based on a consistent module. .IP "\fB\-help\fR" 4 .IX Item "-help" Print a summary of command line options. .SH "EXIT STATUS" .IX Header "EXIT STATUS" If \fBllvm-bcanalyzer\fR succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value, usually 1. .SH "SUMMARY OUTPUT DEFINITIONS" .IX Header "SUMMARY OUTPUT DEFINITIONS" The following items are always printed by llvm-bcanalyzer.
