NAME
llvm-symbolizer - convert addresses into source code locations
SYNOPSIS
llvm-symbolizer [options] [addresses...]
DESCRIPTION
llvm-symbolizer reads object file names and addresses from the command-line and prints corresponding source code locations to standard output. If no address is specified on the command-line, it reads the addresses from standard input. If no object file is specified on the command-line, but addresses are, or if at any time an input value is not recognized, the input is simply echoed to the output. A positional argument or standard input value can be preceded by "DATA" or "CODE" to indicate that the address should be symbolized as data or executable code respectively. If neither is specified, "CODE" is assumed. DATA is symbolized as address and symbol size rather than line number. Object files can be specified together with the addresses either on standard input or as positional arguments on the command-line, following any "DATA" or "CODE" prefix. llvm-symbolizer parses options from the environment variable LLVM_SYMBOLIZER_OPTS after parsing options from the command line. LLVM_SYMBOLIZER_OPTS is primarily useful for supplementing the command-line options when llvm-symbolizer is invoked by another program or runtime.
EXAMPLES
All of the following examples use the following two source files as input. They use a mixture of C-style and C++-style linkage to illustrate how these names are printed differently (see \%--demangle). NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5
// test.h
extern "C" inline int foz() {
 return 1234;
}
NINDENT NINDENT NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5
// test.cpp
#include "test.h"
int bar=42;

int foo() {
 return bar;
}

int baz() {
 volatile int k = 42;
 return foz() + k;
}

int main() {
 return foo() + baz();
}
NINDENT NINDENT These files are built as follows: NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5

NINDENT NINDENT Example 5 - path-style options: This example uses the same source file as above, but the source file\(aqs full path is /tmp/foo/test.cpp and is compiled as follows.

OPTIONS
NDENT 0.0

--adjust-vma <offset> Add the specified offset to object file addresses when performing lookups. This can be used to perform lookups as if the object were relocated by the offset. NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--basenames, -s Print just the file\(aqs name without any directories, instead of the absolute path. NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--demangle, -C Print demangled function names, if the names are mangled (e.g. the mangled name _Z3bazv becomes baz(), whilst the non-mangled name foz is printed as is). Defaults to true. NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--dwp <path> Use the specified DWP file at <path> for any CUs that have split DWARF debug data. NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--fallback-debug-path <path> When a separate file contains debug data, and is referenced by a GNU debug link section, use the specified path as a basis for locating the debug data if it cannot be found relative to the object. NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--functions [=<none|short|linkage>], -f Specify the way function names are printed (omit function name, print short function name, or print full linkage name, respectively). Defaults to linkage. NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--help, -h Show help and usage for this command. NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--inlining, --inlines, -i If a source code location is in an inlined function, prints all the inlined frames. This is the default. NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--no-inlines Don\(aqt print inlined frames. NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--no-demangle Don\(aqt print demangled function names. NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--obj <path>, --exe, -e Path to object file to be symbolized. If - is specified, read the object directly from the standard input stream. NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--output-style <LLVM|GNU> Specify the preferred output style. Defaults to LLVM. When the output style is set to GNU, the tool follows the style of GNU\(aqs addr2line. The differences from the LLVM style are: NDENT 7.0

\(bu 2
Does not print the column of a source code location.
\(bu 2
Does not add an empty line after the report for an address.
\(bu 2
Does not replace the name of an inlined function with the name of the topmost caller when inlined frames are not shown and \%--use-symbol-table is on.
\(bu 2
Prints an address\(aqs debug-data discriminator when it is non-zero. One way to produce discriminators is to compile with clang\(aqs -fdebug-info-for-profiling. NINDENT NDENT 7.0 NDENT 3.5

WINDOWS/PDB SPECIFIC OPTIONS
NDENT 0.0

--dia Use the Windows DIA SDK for symbolization. If the DIA SDK is not found, llvm-symbolizer will fall back to the native implementation. NINDENT

MACH-O SPECIFIC OPTIONS
NDENT 0.0

--default-arch <arch> If a binary contains object files for multiple architectures (e.g. it is a Mach-O universal binary), symbolize the object file for a given architecture. You can also specify the architecture by writing binary_name:arch_name in the input (see example below). If the architecture is not specified in either way, the address will not be symbolized. Defaults to empty string. NDENT 7.0 NDENT 3.5

NINDENT NINDENT NINDENT NDENT 0.0

--dsym-hint <path/to/file.dSYM> If the debug info for a binary isn\(aqt present in the default location, look for the debug info at the .dSYM path provided via this option. This flag can be used multiple times. NINDENT

EXIT STATUS
llvm-symbolizer returns 0. Other exit codes imply an internal program error.
