<h2>SYNOPSIS<a class="headerlink" href="#synopsis" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p><strong class="program">llvm-extract</strong> [<em>options</em>] <strong>–func</strong> <em>function-name</em> [<em>filename</em>]</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="description">
<h2>DESCRIPTION<a class="headerlink" href="#description" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>The <strong class="program">llvm-extract</strong> command takes the name of a function and extracts
it from the specified LLVM bitcode file. It is primarily used as a debugging
tool to reduce test cases from larger programs that are triggering a bug.</p>
<p>In addition to extracting the bitcode of the specified function,
<strong class="program">llvm-extract</strong> will also remove unreachable global variables,
prototypes, and unused types.</p>
<p>The <strong class="program">llvm-extract</strong> command reads its input from standard input if
filename is omitted or if filename is <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-</span></code>. The output is always written to
standard output, unless the <strong>-o</strong> option is specified (see below).</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="options">
<h2>OPTIONS<a class="headerlink" href="#options" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p><strong>-f</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<div>Enable binary output on terminals. Normally, <strong class="program">llvm-extract</strong> will
refuse to write raw bitcode output if the output stream is a terminal. With
this option, <strong class="program">llvm-extract</strong> will write raw bitcode regardless of the
output device.</div></blockquote>
<p><strong>–func</strong> <em>function-name</em></p>
<blockquote>
<div>Extract the function named <em>function-name</em> from the LLVM bitcode. May be
specified multiple times to extract multiple functions at once.</div></blockquote>
<p><strong>–rfunc</strong> <em>function-regular-expr</em></p>
<blockquote>
<div>Extract the function(s) matching <em>function-regular-expr</em> from the LLVM bitcode.
All functions matching the regular expression will be extracted. May be
specified multiple times.</div></blockquote>
<p><strong>–glob</strong> <em>global-name</em></p>
<blockquote>
<div>Extract the global variable named <em>global-name</em> from the LLVM bitcode. May be
specified multiple times to extract multiple global variables at once.</div></blockquote>
<p><strong>–rglob</strong> <em>glob-regular-expr</em></p>
<blockquote>
<div>Extract the global variable(s) matching <em>global-regular-expr</em> from the LLVM
bitcode. All global variables matching the regular expression will be
extracted. May be specified multiple times.</div></blockquote>
<p><strong>-help</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<div>Print a summary of command line options.</div></blockquote>
<p><strong>-o</strong> <em>filename</em></p>
<blockquote>
<div>Specify the output filename. If filename is “-” (the default), then
<strong class="program">llvm-extract</strong> sends its output to standard output.</div></blockquote>
<p><strong>-S</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<div>Write output in LLVM intermediate language (instead of bitcode).</div></blockquote>
</div>
<div class="section" id="exit-status">
<h2>EXIT STATUS<a class="headerlink" href="#exit-status" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>If <strong class="program">llvm-extract</strong> succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error
occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value.</p>
