1 llvm-as - LLVM assembler
2 ========================
9 **llvm-as** [*options*] [*filename*]
16 **llvm-as** is the LLVM assembler. It reads a file containing human-readable
17 LLVM assembly language, translates it to LLVM bitcode, and writes the result
18 into a file or to standard output.
20 If *filename* is omitted or is ``-``, then **llvm-as** reads its input from
23 If an output file is not specified with the **-o** option, then
24 **llvm-as** sends its output to a file or standard output by following
30 If the input is standard input, then the output is standard output.
36 If the input is a file that ends with ``.ll``, then the output file is of
37 the same name, except that the suffix is changed to ``.bc``.
43 If the input is a file that does not end with the ``.ll`` suffix, then the
44 output file has the same name as the input file, except that the ``.bc``
57 Enable binary output on terminals. Normally, **llvm-as** will refuse to
58 write raw bitcode output if the output stream is a terminal. With this option,
59 **llvm-as** will write raw bitcode regardless of the output device.
65 Print a summary of command line options.
71 Specify the output file name. If *filename* is ``-``, then **llvm-as**
72 sends its output to standard output.
81 If **llvm-as** succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error
82 occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value.
