New Revision: 129507
URL: http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?rev=129507&view=rev
Log:
Documented bugpoint --compile-custom --compile-command.
I've used it a few times to reduce unit tests and gotten one request for information on it. It's not easy to use correctly because bugpoint doesn't tell you when you're doing it wrong.

+This option defines the command to use with the B<--compile-custom>
+option to compile the bitcode testcase. This can be useful for
+testing compiler output without running any link or execute stages. To
+generate a reduced unit test, you may add CHECK directives to the
+testcase and pass the name of a compile-command script in this form:

+ llc "$@"
+ not FileCheck [bugpoint input file].ll < bugpoint-test-program.s

+This script will "fail" as long as FileCheck passes. So the result
+will be the minimum bitcode that passes FileCheck.
