+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ cd $LLVMC_DIR/plugins

+</pre>
+<p>As you can see, our basic plugin consists of only two files (not
+counting the build script). <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Simple.td</span></tt> contains TableGen
+description of the compilation graph; its format is documented in the
+following sections. <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">PluginMain.cpp</span></tt> is just a helper file used to
+compile the auto-generated C++ code produced from TableGen source. It
+can also contain hook definitions (see <a class="reference" href="#hooks">below</a>).</p>
+<p>The first thing that you should do is to change the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">LLVMC_PLUGIN</span></tt>
+variable in the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Makefile</span></tt> to avoid conflicts (since this variable
+is used to name the resulting library):</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">

+generic:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ mv Simple.td MyPlugin.td
+</pre>
+<p>Note that the plugin source directory must be placed under
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$LLVMC_DIR/plugins</span></tt> to make use of the existing build
+infrastructure. To build a version of the LLVMC executable called
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">mydriver</span></tt> with your plugin compiled in, use the following command:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ cd $LLVMC_DIR
+$ make BUILTIN_PLUGINS=MyPlugin DRIVER_NAME=mydriver
+</pre>
+<p>To build your plugin as a dynamic library, just <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cd</span></tt> to its source
+directory and run <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">make</span></tt>. The resulting file will be called
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">LLVMC$(LLVMC_PLUGIN).$(DLL_EXTENSION)</span></tt> (in our case,
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">LLVMCMyPlugin.so</span></tt>). This library can be then loaded in with the
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-load</span></tt> option. Example:</p>

+$ make
+$ llvmc -load $LLVM_DIR/Release/lib/LLVMCSimple.so

+optional edges are differentiated by an additional <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">case</span></tt> expression

<p>The default edges are assigned a weight of 1, and optional edges get a

<p>When passing an input file through the graph, LLVMC picks the edge
with the maximum weight. To avoid ambiguity, there should be only one
default edge between two nodes (with the exception of the root node,
which gets a special treatment - there you are allowed to specify one
default edge <em>per language</em>).</p>

+<p>LLVMC is a generic compiler driver, designed to be customizable and
+extensible. It plays the same role for LLVM as the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">gcc</span></tt> program
+does for GCC - LLVMC's job is essentially to transform a set of input
+files into a set of targets depending on configuration rules and user
+options. What makes LLVMC different is that these transformation rules
+are completely customizable - in fact, LLVMC knows nothing about the
+specifics of transformation (even the command-line options are mostly
+not hard-coded) and regards the transformation structure as an
+abstract graph. The structure of this graph is completely determined
+by plugins, which can be either statically or dynamically linked. This
+makes it possible to easily adapt LLVMC for other purposes - for
+example, as a build tool for game resources.</p>
+<p>Because LLVMC employs TableGen <a class="footnote-reference" href="#id7" id="id1" name="id1">[1]</a> as its configuration language, you
+need to be familiar with it to customize LLVMC.</p>

+<p>LLVMC tries hard to be as compatible with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">gcc</span></tt> as possible,
+although there are some small differences. Most of the time, however,
+you shouldn't be able to notice them:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ # This works as expected:
+$ llvmc -O3 -Wall hello.cpp
+$ ./a.out
+hello
+</pre>
+<p>One nice feature of LLVMC is that one doesn't have to distinguish
+between different compilers for different languages (think <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">g++</span></tt> and
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">gcc</span></tt>) - the right toolchain is chosen automatically based on input
+language names (which are, in turn, determined from file
+extensions). If you want to force files ending with ".c" to compile as
+C++, use the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-x</span></tt> option, just like you would do it with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">gcc</span></tt>:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ # hello.c is really a C++ file
+$ llvmc -x c++ hello.c
+$ ./a.out
+hello
+</pre>
+<p>On the other hand, when using LLVMC as a linker to combine several C++
+object files you should provide the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--linker</span></tt> option since it's
+impossible for LLVMC to choose the right linker in that case:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ llvmc -c hello.cpp
+$ llvmc hello.o
+[A lot of link-time errors skipped]
+$ llvmc --linker=c++ hello.o
+$ ./a.out
+hello
+</pre>
+<p>By default, LLVMC uses <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">llvm-gcc</span></tt> to compile the source code. It is
+also possible to choose the work-in-progress <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">clang</span></tt> compiler with
+the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-clang</span></tt> option.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="section">
+<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id11" id="predefined-options" name="predefined-options">Predefined options</a></h1>
+<p>LLVMC has some built-in options that can't be overridden in the

+<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--view-graph</span></tt> - Show a graphical representation of the compilation

+<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id12" id="compiling-llvmc-plugins" name="compiling-llvmc-plugins">Compiling LLVMC plugins</a></h1>
+<p>It's easiest to start working on your own LLVMC plugin by copying the
+skeleton project which lives under <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$LLVMC_DIR/plugins/Simple</span></tt>:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ cd $LLVMC_DIR/plugins
+$ cp -r Simple MyPlugin
+$ cd MyPlugin
+$ ls
+Makefile PluginMain.cpp Simple.td
+</pre>
+<p>As you can see, our basic plugin consists of only two files (not
+counting the build script). <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Simple.td</span></tt> contains TableGen
+description of the compilation graph; its format is documented in the
+following sections. <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">PluginMain.cpp</span></tt> is just a helper file used to
+compile the auto-generated C++ code produced from TableGen source. It
+can also contain hook definitions (see <a class="reference" href="#hooks">below</a>).</p>
+<p>The first thing that you should do is to change the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">LLVMC_PLUGIN</span></tt>
+variable in the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Makefile</span></tt> to avoid conflicts (since this variable
+is used to name the resulting library):</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+LLVMC_PLUGIN=MyPlugin
+</pre>
+<p>It is also a good idea to rename <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Simple.td</span></tt> to something less
+generic:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ mv Simple.td MyPlugin.td
+</pre>
+<p>Note that the plugin source directory must be placed under
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$LLVMC_DIR/plugins</span></tt> to make use of the existing build
+infrastructure. To build a version of the LLVMC executable called
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">mydriver</span></tt> with your plugin compiled in, use the following command:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ cd $LLVMC_DIR
+$ make BUILTIN_PLUGINS=MyPlugin DRIVER_NAME=mydriver
+</pre>
+<p>To build your plugin as a dynamic library, just <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cd</span></tt> to its source
+directory and run <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">make</span></tt>. The resulting file will be called
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">LLVMC$(LLVMC_PLUGIN).$(DLL_EXTENSION)</span></tt> (in our case,
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">LLVMCMyPlugin.so</span></tt>). This library can be then loaded in with the
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-load</span></tt> option. Example:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ cd $LLVMC_DIR/plugins/Simple
+$ make
+$ llvmc -load $LLVM_DIR/Release/lib/LLVMCSimple.so
+</pre>
+<p>Sometimes, you will want a 'bare-bones' version of LLVMC that has no
+built-in plugins. It can be compiled with the following command:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ cd $LLVMC_DIR
+$ make BUILTIN_PLUGINS=""
+</pre>

+<div class="section">
+<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id13" id="customizing-llvmc-the-compilation-graph" name="customizing-llvmc-the-compilation-graph">Customizing LLVMC: the compilation graph</a></h1>
+<p>Each TableGen configuration file should include the common
+definitions:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+include "llvm/CompilerDriver/Common.td"
+</pre>
+<p>Internally, LLVMC stores information about possible source
+transformations in form of a graph. Nodes in this graph represent
+tools, and edges between two nodes represent a transformation path. A
+special "root" node is used to mark entry points for the
+transformations. LLVMC also assigns a weight to each edge (more on
+this later) to choose between several alternative edges.</p>
+<p>The definition of the compilation graph (see file
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">plugins/Base/Base.td</span></tt> for an example) is just a list of edges:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+def CompilationGraph : CompilationGraph<[
+ Edge<"root", "llvm_gcc_c">,
+ Edge<"root", "llvm_gcc_assembler">,
+ ...
+
+ Edge<"llvm_gcc_c", "llc">,
+ Edge<"llvm_gcc_cpp", "llc">,
+ ...
+
+ OptionalEdge<"llvm_gcc_c", "opt", (case (switch_on "opt"),
+ (inc_weight))>,
+ OptionalEdge<"llvm_gcc_cpp", "opt", (case (switch_on "opt"),
+ (inc_weight))>,
+ ...
+
+ OptionalEdge<"llvm_gcc_assembler", "llvm_gcc_cpp_linker",
+ (case (input_languages_contain "c++"), (inc_weight),
+ (or (parameter_equals "linker", "g++"),
+ (parameter_equals "linker", "c++")), (inc_weight))>,
+ ...
+
+ ]>;
+</pre>
+<p>As you can see, the edges can be either default or optional, where
+optional edges are differentiated by an additional <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">case</span></tt> expression
+used to calculate the weight of this edge. Notice also that we refer
+to tools via their names (as strings). This makes it possible to add
+edges to an existing compilation graph in plugins without having to
+know about all tool definitions used in the graph.</p>
+<p>The default edges are assigned a weight of 1, and optional edges get a
+weight of 0 + 2*N where N is the number of tests that evaluated to
+true in the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">case</span></tt> expression. It is also possible to provide an
+integer parameter to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">inc_weight</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">dec_weight</span></tt> - in this case,
+the weight is increased (or decreased) by the provided value instead
+of the default 2. It is also possible to change the default weight of
+an optional edge by using the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">default</span></tt> clause of the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">case</span></tt>
+construct.</p>
+<p>When passing an input file through the graph, LLVMC picks the edge
+with the maximum weight. To avoid ambiguity, there should be only one
+default edge between two nodes (with the exception of the root node,
+which gets a special treatment - there you are allowed to specify one
+default edge <em>per language</em>).</p>
+<p>When multiple plugins are loaded, their compilation graphs are merged
+together. Since multiple edges that have the same end nodes are not
+allowed (i.e. the graph is not a multigraph), an edge defined in
+several plugins will be replaced by the definition from the plugin
+that was loaded last. Plugin load order can be controlled by using the
+plugin priority feature described above.</p>
+<p>To get a visual representation of the compilation graph (useful for
+debugging), run <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">llvmc</span> <span class="pre">--view-graph</span></tt>. You will need <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">dot</span></tt> and
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">gsview</span></tt> installed for this to work properly.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="section">
+<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id14" id="describing-options" name="describing-options">Describing options</a></h1>

+<p>As you can see, the option list is just a list of DAGs, where each DAG
+is an option description consisting of the option name and some

+<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id16" id="conditional-evaluation" name="conditional-evaluation"><span id="case"></span>Conditional evaluation</a></h1>
+<p>The 'case' construct is the main means by which programmability is
+achieved in LLVMC. It can be used to calculate edge weights, program
+actions and modify the shell commands to be executed. The 'case'
+expression is designed after the similarly-named construct in
+functional languages and takes the form <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">(case</span> <span class="pre">(test_1),</span> <span class="pre">statement_1,</span>
+<span class="pre">(test_2),</span> <span class="pre">statement_2,</span> <span class="pre">...</span> <span class="pre">(test_N),</span> <span class="pre">statement_N)</span></tt>. The statements
+are evaluated only if the corresponding tests evaluate to true.</p>
+<p>Examples:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+// Edge weight calculation
+
+// Increases edge weight by 5 if "-A" is provided on the
+// command-line, and by 5 more if "-B" is also provided.
+(case
+ (switch_on "A"), (inc_weight 5),
+ (switch_on "B"), (inc_weight 5))
+
+
+// Tool command line specification
+
+// Evaluates to "cmdline1" if the option "-A" is provided on the
+// command line; to "cmdline2" if "-B" is provided;
+// otherwise to "cmdline3".
+
+(case
+ (switch_on "A"), "cmdline1",
+ (switch_on "B"), "cmdline2",
+ (default), "cmdline3")
+</pre>
+<p>Note the slight difference in 'case' expression handling in contexts
+of edge weights and command line specification - in the second example
+the value of the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">"B"</span></tt> switch is never checked when switch <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">"A"</span></tt> is
+enabled, and the whole expression always evaluates to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">"cmdline1"</span></tt> in
+that case.</p>
+<p>Case expressions can also be nested, i.e. the following is legal:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+(case (switch_on "E"), (case (switch_on "o"), ..., (default), ...)
+ (default), ...)
+</pre>
+<p>You should, however, try to avoid doing that because it hurts
+readability. It is usually better to split tool descriptions and/or
+use TableGen inheritance instead.</p>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>Possible tests are:<ul>
+<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">switch_on</span></tt> - Returns true if a given command-line switch is

+<p>This defines a new tool called <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">llvm_gcc_cpp</span></tt>, which is an alias for
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">llvm-g++</span></tt>. As you can see, a tool definition is just a list of
+properties; most of them should be self-explanatory. The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sink</span></tt>
+property means that this tool should be passed all command-line
+options that aren't mentioned in the option list.</p>
+<p>The complete list of all currently implemented tool properties follows.</p>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>Possible tool properties:<ul>
+<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">in_language</span></tt> - input language name. Can be either a string or a

+dynamically, see documentation on actions.</li>
+<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cmd_line</span></tt> - the actual command used to run the tool. You can
+use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$INFILE</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$OUTFILE</span></tt> variables, output redirection

+<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">join</span></tt> - this tool is a "join node" in the graph, i.e. it gets a

+<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sink</span></tt> - all command-line options that are not handled by other
+tools are passed to this tool.</li>
+<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">actions</span></tt> - A single big <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">case</span></tt> expression that specifies how
+this tool reacts on command-line options (described in more detail
+below).</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+</ul>
+<div class="section">
+<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id18" id="actions" name="actions">Actions</a></h2>
+<p>A tool often needs to react to command-line options, and this is
+precisely what the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">actions</span></tt> property is for. The next example
+illustrates this feature:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+def llvm_gcc_linker : Tool<[
+ (in_language "object-code"),
+ (out_language "executable"),
+ (output_suffix "out"),

+ (not_empty "l"), (forward "l"),
+ (not_empty "dummy"),
+ [(append_cmd "-dummy1"), (append_cmd "-dummy2")])
+ ]>;
+</pre>
+<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">actions</span></tt> tool property is implemented on top of the omnipresent
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">case</span></tt> expression. It associates one or more different <em>actions</em>
+with given conditions - in the example, the actions are <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">forward</span></tt>,
+which forwards a given option unchanged, and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">append_cmd</span></tt>, which
+appends a given string to the tool execution command. Multiple actions
+can be associated with a single condition by using a list of actions
+(used in the example to append some dummy options). The same <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">case</span></tt>
+construct can also be used in the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cmd_line</span></tt> property to modify the
+tool command line.</p>
+<p>The "join" property used in the example means that this tool behaves
+like a linker.</p>
+<p>The list of all possible actions follows.</p>
+<ul>
+<li><p class="first">Possible actions:</p>

+<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">output_suffix</span></tt> - modify the output suffix of this

+<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id19" id="language-map" name="language-map">Language map</a></h1>
+<p>If you are adding support for a new language to LLVMC, you'll need to
+modify the language map, which defines mappings from file extensions
+to language names. It is used to choose the proper toolchain(s) for a
+given input file set. Language map definition looks like this:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+def LanguageMap : LanguageMap<
+ [LangToSuffixes<"c++", ["cc", "cp", "cxx", "cpp", "CPP", "c++", "C"]>,
+ LangToSuffixes<"c", ["c"]>,
+ ...
+ ]>;
+</pre>
+<p>For example, without those definitions the following command wouldn't work:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+$ llvmc hello.cpp
+llvmc: Unknown suffix: cpp
+</pre>
+<p>The language map entries should be added only for tools that are
+linked with the root node. Since tools are not allowed to have
+multiple output languages, for nodes "inside" the graph the input and
+output languages should match. This is enforced at compile-time.</p>

+<p>Normally, LLVMC executes programs from the system <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">PATH</span></tt>. Sometimes,
+this is not sufficient: for example, we may want to specify tool names
+in the configuration file. This can be achieved via the mechanism of
+hooks - to write your own hooks, just add their definitions to the
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">PluginMain.cpp</span></tt> or drop a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">.cpp</span></tt> file into the
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$LLVMC_DIR/driver</span></tt> directory. Hooks should live in the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">hooks</span></tt>
+namespace and have the signature <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">std::string</span> <span class="pre">hooks::MyHookName</span>
+<span class="pre">(void)</span></tt>. They can be used from the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cmd_line</span></tt> tool property:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+(cmd_line "$CALL(MyHook)/path/to/file -o $CALL(AnotherHook)")
+</pre>
+<p>It is also possible to use environment variables in the same manner:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+(cmd_line "$ENV(VAR1)/path/to/file -o $ENV(VAR2)")
+</pre>
+<p>To change the command line string based on user-provided options use
+the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">case</span></tt> expression (documented <a class="reference" href="#case">above</a>):</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">

+<p>It is possible for LLVMC plugins to depend on each other. For example,
+one can create edges between nodes defined in some other plugin. To
+make this work, however, that plugin should be loaded first. To
+achieve this, the concept of plugin priority was introduced. By
+default, every plugin has priority zero; to specify the priority
+explicitly, put the following line in your plugin's TableGen file:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+def Priority : PluginPriority<$PRIORITY_VALUE>;
+# Where PRIORITY_VALUE is some integer > 0
+</pre>
+<p>Plugins are loaded in order of their (increasing) priority, starting
+with 0. Therefore, the plugin with the highest priority value will be
+loaded last.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="section">
+<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id23" id="debugging" name="debugging">Debugging</a></h2>
+<p>When writing LLVMC plugins, it can be useful to get a visual view of
+the resulting compilation graph. This can be achieved via the command
+line option <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--view-graph</span></tt>. This command assumes that Graphviz <a class="footnote-reference" href="#id8" id="id5" name="id5">[2]</a> and
+Ghostview <a class="footnote-reference" href="#id9" id="id6" name="id6">[3]</a> are installed. There is also a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--dump-graph</span></tt> option that
