1llvm-as - LLVM assembler 2======================== 3 4SYNOPSIS 5-------- 6 7**llvm-as** [*options*] [*filename*] 8 9DESCRIPTION 10----------- 11 12**llvm-as** is the LLVM assembler. It reads a file containing human-readable 13LLVM assembly language, translates it to LLVM bitcode, and writes the result 14into a file or to standard output. 15 16If *filename* is omitted or is ``-``, then **llvm-as** reads its input from 17standard input. 18 19If an output file is not specified with the **-o** option, then 20**llvm-as** sends its output to a file or standard output by following 21these rules: 22 23* If the input is standard input, then the output is standard output. 24 25* If the input is a file that ends with ``.ll``, then the output file is of the 26 same name, except that the suffix is changed to ``.bc``. 27 28* If the input is a file that does not end with the ``.ll`` suffix, then the 29 output file has the same name as the input file, except that the ``.bc`` 30 suffix is appended. 31 32OPTIONS 33------- 34 35**-f** 36 Enable binary output on terminals. Normally, **llvm-as** will refuse to 37 write raw bitcode output if the output stream is a terminal. With this option, 38 **llvm-as** will write raw bitcode regardless of the output device. 39 40**-help** 41 Print a summary of command line options. 42 43**-o** *filename* 44 Specify the output file name. If *filename* is ``-``, then **llvm-as** 45 sends its output to standard output. 46 47EXIT STATUS 48----------- 49 50If **llvm-as** succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error occurs, it 51will exit with a non-zero value. 52 53SEE ALSO 54-------- 55 56llvm-dis|llvm-dis, gccas|gccas 57
