If it is something local enough that a function pass or module pass would work, you may not need the entire project as a whole in a single IR file. In this case you can add your pass to the pipeline and recompile clang or again depending on what you want to perform you can try a solution like this: <a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__homes.cs.washington.edu_-7Easampson_blog_clangpass.html&d=AwMFaQ&c=8hUWFZcy2Z-Za5rBPlktOQ&r=Mfk2qtn1LTDThVkh6-oGglNfMADXfJdty4_bhmuhMHA&m=eek9o_cmSHm8dcEZi03MGTjJn0UzX60eVOLKUB7VkV4&s=f6f4JghghCEMgaft_lQ-3fUq6TMLw3Oizc5a-BoP7tA&e=" class="">https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~asampson/blog/clangpass.html</a></div><div><br class=""></div><div>— </div><div>Mehdi</div><div><br class=""></div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><div class="gmail_extra"><br class=""><div class="gmail_quote">2015-06-25 1:54 GMT+08:00 Pete Cooper <span dir="ltr" class=""><<a href="mailto:peter_cooper@apple.com" target="_blank" class="">peter_cooper@apple.com</a>></span>:<br class=""><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word" class=""><br class=""><div class=""><span class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Jun 24, 2015, at 10:19 AM, Eli Bendersky <<a href="mailto:eliben@google.com" target="_blank" class="">eliben@google.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class=""><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><br class=""><div class="gmail_extra"><br class=""><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jun 24, 2015 at 7:05 AM, Q Z <span dir="ltr" class=""><<a href="mailto:zhaoqian301@gmail.com" target="_blank" class="">zhaoqian301@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br class=""><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr" class="">Hello，I want to compile a large project(for example,Apache httpd) to one .bc file.

Depends on the linker you are using, but Apple’s ld and I believe the gold linker both have -save-temps options which save the bit codes before/after optimization but certainly after linking.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Cheers,</div><div class="">Pete<br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><span class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I suggest you take a look at the "NaCl ports" project (<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__code.google.com_p_naclports_&d=AwMFaQ&c=8hUWFZcy2Z-Za5rBPlktOQ&r=Mfk2qtn1LTDThVkh6-oGglNfMADXfJdty4_bhmuhMHA&m=RfjvEJWweAkWHLneLw1ksvf1RoobZbEIUUVtXtJgYv4&s=RvO9OeVGsfCkE0U5HJQV_pwo1s2U1qoZg2Wx-gK19cs&e=" target="_blank" class="">https://code.google.com/p/naclports/</a>). It has ready-made makefiles to compile a bunch of well known open source projects using the PNaCl toolchain, which is based on LLVM. Each file is compiled to IR and the LLVM linker is used to link them all together. This is a full solution, handling the standard libraries, and so on. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Eli</div><div class=""><br class=""></div></div></div></div></span>
