[llvm-dev] flags to reproduce clang -O3 with opt -O3
Hello, I've been trying to figure out how to reproduce the results of a single clang -O3 compilation to a binary with a multi-step process using opt. Specifically I have: clang -O3 foo.c -o foo.exe which I want to replicate with: clang -O0 -c -emit-llvm foo.c opt -O3 foo.bc -o foo_o.bc clang foo_o.bc -o foo.exe Any hints / suggestions on what additional flags I need to produce the same binary are greatly appreciated! *What I've tried:* I've been reading the archives, and found this <http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-September/117144.html>, which suggests dumping the pass arguments using: clang -mllvm -debug-pass=Structure -O3 foo.c -o foo.exe and comparing with: clang -mllvm -debug-pass=Structure -O0 -c -emit-llvm foo.c opt -debug-pass=Structure -O3 foo.bc -o foo_o.bc clang -mllvm -debug-pass=Structure foo_o.bc -o foo.exe The first has 30 "Pass Argument" statements though only these 5 are distinct. Across these 5 there are 190 distinct flags. The multi-step compilation has only 140 distinct flags. Comparing the flags, 18 from the multi-step are missing in the 1pass, and 67 from 1pass are missing in the multistep. These appear to be opt flags, since they cause an error when trying to use them with clang (e.g. -x86-fixup-LEAs) and when used with opt causes a crash with stack dump and request to submit a bug report. Others like -attributor appear to work with opt. I'm currently blindly trying to add the 67 different flags to the opt step to see which work, and hopefully that subset will produce the same result as clang -O3. It seems like there must be an easier / more exact way of getting the opt -O3 multi-step to match the clang -O3 result. Any thoughts or insights are appreciated. Below is a sorted list of the flags missing from each for completeness. not contained in 1pass O3 (count=18) -aa-scalar-evolution -always-inline -callsite-splitting -inject-tli-mappings -ipsccp -jump-threading-correlated-propagation -livedebugvalues -loops-loop-simplify -memdep-lazy-branch-prob -openmpopt -opt-remark-emitter-instcombine -regallocfast -speculative-execution -stackmap-liveness -tbaa-scoped-noalias -vector-combine -verify -write-bitcode not contained in multi O3 (count=67) -attributor -block-freq-loop-simplify -branch-folder -break-false-deps -callsite-splitting-ipsccp -codegenprepare -consthoist -dead-mi-elimination -detect-dead-lanes -early-ifcvt -early-machinelicm -early-tailduplication -expandmemcmp -greedy -interleaved-access -iv-users -lazy-block-freq-opt-remark-emitter -livedebugvars -liveintervals -liveregmatrix -livestacks -livevars -loop-reduce -loop-simplify-lcssa-verification -lrshrink -machine-block-freq -machine-combiner -machine-cp -machine-cse -machinedomtree-machine-loops -machinelicm -machine-loops -machinepostdomtree -machinepostdomtree-block-placement -machine-scheduler -machine-sink -machine-trace-metrics -mergeicmps -objc-arc-contract -opt-phis -partially-inline-libcalls -peephole-opt -postra-machine-sink -post-RA-sched -processimpdefs -reaching-deps-analysis -rename-independent-subregs -shrink-wrap -simple-register-coalescing -slotindexes -spill-code-placement -stack-coloring -stackmap-liveness-livedebugvalues -stack-slot-coloring -tailduplication -unreachable-mbb-elimination -virtregmap -virtregrewriter -x86-avoid-SFB -x86-cf-opt -x86-cmov-conversion -x86-domain-reassignment -x86-evex-to-vex-compress -x86-execution-domain-fix -x86-fixup-bw-insts -x86-fixup-LEAs -x86-optimize-LEAs -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[llvm-dev] flags to reproduce clang -O3 with opt -O3
Awesome, thanks! I'd like to have the last step (llc in your example) not perform additional optimization passes, such as O3, and simply use the O3 pass from opt in the previous line. Do you happen to know if I should use 'llc -O0 foo_o.bc -o foo.exe' instead to achieve this?
