I want to use the clang front-end to convert mips.c to mips.ll which is a llvm IR.
So I use the command: clang -cc1 O3 mips.c -emit-llvm
.
A fatal error occurs: 'stdio.h'(which is included in mips.c) file not found.
Then I change the command as following: clang -Xclang -cc1 O3 mips.c -emit-llvm
.
Another error occurs: -emit-llvm cannot be used when linking
How can I solve the problem?
As written in the error message, you can only compile when emitting LLVM IR, not link.
Either add
-c
for the bitcode or-S
for the readable form to your command line:
