SYNOPSIS
llvm-nm [
options] [
filenames...]
DESCRIPTION
The
llvm-nm utility lists the names of symbols from the LLVM bitcode
files, object files, or
ar archives containing them, named on the
command line. Each symbol is listed along with some simple information about
its provenance. If no file name is specified, or
- is used as a file name,
llvm-nm will process a file on its standard input stream.
llvm-nm\(aqs default output format is the traditional BSD
nm
output format. Each such output record consists of an (optional) 8-digit
hexadecimal address, followed by a type code character, followed by a name, for
each symbol. One record is printed per line; fields are separated by spaces.
When the address is omitted, it is replaced by 8 spaces.
Type code characters currently supported, and their meanings, are as follows:
U
NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5 Named object is referenced but undefined in this bitcode file
NINDENT NINDENT C
NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5 Common (multiple definitions link together into one def)
NINDENT NINDENT W
NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5 Weak reference (multiple definitions link together into zero or one definitions)
NINDENT NINDENT t
NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5 Local function (text) object
NINDENT NINDENT T
NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5 Global function (text) object
NINDENT NINDENT d
NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5 Local data object
NINDENT NINDENT D
NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5 Global data object
NINDENT NINDENT ?
NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5 Something unrecognizable
NINDENT NINDENT Because LLVM bitcode files typically contain objects that are not considered to
have addresses until they are linked into an executable image or dynamically
compiled "just-in-time",
llvm-nm does not print an address for any
symbol in an LLVM bitcode file, even symbols which are defined in the bitcode
file.
OPTIONS
NDENT 0.0
-B (default) Use BSD output format. Alias for --format=bsd.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
-P Use POSIX.2 output format. Alias for --format=posix.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
--debug-syms, -a Show all symbols, even debugger only.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
--defined-only Print only symbols defined in this file (as opposed to
symbols which may be referenced by objects in this file, but not
defined in this file.)
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
--dynamic, -D Display dynamic symbols instead of normal symbols.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
--extern-only, -g Print only symbols whose definitions are external; that is, accessible
from other files.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
--format=format, -f format Select an output format; format may be sysv, posix, or bsd. The default
is bsd.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
-help Print a summary of command-line options and their meanings.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
--no-sort, -p Shows symbols in order encountered.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
--numeric-sort, -n, -v Sort symbols by address.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
--print-file-name, -A, -o Precede each symbol with the file it came from.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
--print-size, -S Show symbol size instead of address.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
--size-sort Sort symbols by size.
NINDENT NDENT 0.0
--undefined-only, -u Print only symbols referenced but not defined in this file.

BUGS
NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5 NDENT 0.0 \(bu 2
llvm-nm cannot demangle C++ mangled names, like GNU
nm
can.
\(bu 2
llvm-nm does not support the full set of arguments that GNU
nm does.
NINDENT NINDENT NINDENT EXIT STATUS
llvm-nm exits with an exit code of zero.
