[LLVMdev] How to compile a linux module into .bc file using clang or llvm command?

[15102925731]

It's actually is .c file.
I just want firstly to compile helloworldmodule.c into helloworldmodule.bc.
Then I run a LLVM pass on it to do some optimization, and then I compile the modified .bc file into .ko file.

 So, could you tell me how to compile helloworldmodule.c into helloworldmodule.bc? I think it's not the same command "clang -O3 -emit-llvm hello.c -c -o hello.bc". Because it is a device driver that will be at last compiled to be .ko file.

Thank you!

 Hi, my friends


I know there is a difference between compiling a linux module and a simple helloworld programme.
If I compile a helloworld.c file, the command is
"clang -O3 -emit-llvm hello.c -c -o hello.bc"
But what the command should be if I want to compile a linux module into a .bc file? (I know it may be an easy question to you guys, but I really don't know where to find the answer on llvm.org.)



What do you mean by linux module?  A shared library (.so)? A kernel module (.ko)?
 

Thank you!
