-help

Print a summary of command line options.

-O=uint

Generate code at different optimization levels. These correspond to the -O0, -O1, -O2, and -O3 optimization levels used by clang.

-mtriple=<target triple>

Override the target triple specified in the input file with the specified string.

-march=<arch>

Specify the architecture for which to generate assembly, overriding the target encoded in the input 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.

-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

-filetype=<output file type>

Specify what kind of output llc should generated. Options are: asm for textual assembly ( '.s'), obj for native object files ('.o') and null for not emitting anything (for performance testing).

Note that not all targets support all options.

-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

--disable-fp-elim

Disable frame pointer elimination optimization.

--disable-excess-fp-precision

Disable optimizations that may produce excess precision for floating point. Note that this option can dramatically slow down code on some systems (e.g. X86).

--enable-no-infs-fp-math

Enable optimizations that assume no Inf values.

--enable-no-nans-fp-math

Enable optimizations that assume no NAN values.

--enable-unsafe-fp-math

Enable optimizations that make unsafe assumptions about IEEE math (e.g. that addition is associative) or may not work for all input ranges. These optimizations allow the code generator to make use of some instructions which would otherwise not be usable (such as fsin on X86).

--stats

Print statistics recorded by code-generation passes.

--time-passes

Record the amount of time needed for each pass and print a report to standard error.

--load=<dso_path>

Dynamically load dso_path (a path to a dynamically shared object) that implements an LLVM target. This will permit the target name to be used with the -march option so that code can be generated for that target.

-meabi=[default|gnu|4|5]

Specify which EABI version should conform to. Valid EABI versions are gnu, 4 and 5. Default value (default) depends on the triple.

--print-machineinstrs

Print generated machine code between compilation phases (useful for debugging).

--regalloc=<allocator>

Specify the register allocator to use. Valid register allocators are:

basic

fast

greedy

pbqp

--spiller=<spiller>

Specify the spiller to use for register allocators that support it. Currently this option is used only by the linear scan register allocator. The default spiller is local. Valid spillers are:

simple

local

--x86-asm-syntax=[att|intel]

Specify whether to emit assembly code in AT&T syntax (the default) or Intel syntax.
