llvm-link - LLVM linker ======================= SYNOPSIS -------- :program:`llvm-link` [*options*] *filename ...* DESCRIPTION ----------- :program:`llvm-link` takes several LLVM bitcode files and links them together into a single LLVM bitcode file. It writes the output file to standard output, unless the :option:`-o` option is used to specify a filename. :program:`llvm-link` attempts to load the input files from the current directory. If that fails, it looks for each file in each of the directories specified by the :option:`-L` options on the command line. The library search paths are global; each one is searched for every input file if necessary. The directories are searched in the order they were specified on the command line. OPTIONS ------- .. option:: -L directory Add the specified ``directory`` to the library search path. When looking for libraries, :program:`llvm-link` will look in path name for libraries. This option can be specified multiple times; :program:`llvm-link` will search inside these directories in the order in which they were specified on the command line. .. option:: -f Enable binary output on terminals. Normally, :program:`llvm-link` will refuse to write raw bitcode output if the output stream is a terminal. With this option, :program:`llvm-link` will write raw bitcode regardless of the output device. .. option:: -o filename Specify the output file name. If ``filename`` is "``-``", then :program:`llvm-link` will write its output to standard output. .. option:: -S Write output in LLVM intermediate language (instead of bitcode). .. option:: -d If specified, :program:`llvm-link` prints a human-readable version of the output bitcode file to standard error. .. option:: -help Print a summary of command line options. .. option:: -v Verbose mode. Print information about what :program:`llvm-link` is doing. This typically includes a message for each bitcode file linked in and for each library found. EXIT STATUS ----------- If :program:`llvm-link` succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value. SEE ALSO -------- gccld
