@ -14,34 +14,9 @@ The B<llc> command compiles LLVM bytecode into assembly language for a
specified architecture. The assembly language output can then be passed through
a native assembler and linker to generate native code.
The choice of architecture for the output assembly code is determined as
follows, by attempting to satisfy each of the following rules in turn (first
one wins):
=over
=item *
If the user has specified an architecture with the -m option, use that
architecture.
=item *
Examine the input LLVM bytecode file: if it is little endian and has a
pointer size of 32 bits, select the Intel IA-32 architecture. If it is big
endian and has a pointer size of 64 bits, select the SparcV9 architecture.
=item *
If B<llc> was compiled on an architecture for which it can generate code, select
the architecture upon which B<llc> was compiled.
=item *
Exit with an error message telling the user to specify the output
architecture explicitly.
=back
The choice of architecture for the output assembly code is automatically
determined from the input bytecode file, unless a B<-m> option is used to override
the default.
