Here are some notes from the last time I did it that might be helpful. 
I was removing optimization passes looking for what was causing a problem.


clang -O2 -mllvm -disable-llvm-optzns -emit-llvm -c mysource.c -o 
mysource.llvm.bc

opt ...specify_passes_here... mysource.llvm.bc -o mysource.llvm.ll

llc mysource.llvm.ll -filetype=obj -o mysource.llvm.o


To see all the passes opt would normally use:

opt -O2 -disable-output -debug-pass=Arguments mysource.llvm.bc
