Using main.native for testing:
* To run the automated test harness do:
- on OS X: ./main.native --test
- on Linux: ./main.native -linux --test
* To compile ll files using the 341 backend:
./main.native path/to/foo.ll
- creates output/foo.s backend assembly code
- creates output/foo.o assembled object file
- creates a.out linked executable
NOTE: by default the .s and .o files are created in
a directory called output, and the filenames are
chosen so that multiple runs of the compiler will
not overwrite previous outputs. foo.ll will be
compiled first to foo.s then foo_1.s, foo_2.s, etc.
* To compile ll files using the clang backend:
./main.native --clang path/to/foo.ll
* Useful flags:
--print-ll
echoes the ll program to the terminal
--print-x86
echoes the resulting .s file to the terminal
--simulate-x86
runs the resulting .s file through the reference
x86 simulator and outputs the result to the console
--execute-x86
runs the resulting a.out file natively
(applies to either the 341 backend or clang-compiled code)
-v
generates verbose output, showing which commands are used
for linking, etc.
-op <dirname>
change the output path [DEFAULT=output]
-o
change the generated executable's name [DEFAULT=a.out]
-S
stop after generating .s files
-c
stop after generating .o files
-h or --help
display the list of options
* Example uses:
Run the test case /programs/factrect.ll using the 341 backend:
./main.native --execute-x86 programs/factrect.ll
--------------------------------------------------------------- Executing: a.out
* a.out returned 120
Run the test
