llvm-symbolizer-7.0 - Man Page

convert addresses into source code locations

llvm-symbolizer reads object file names and addresses from standard input and prints corresponding source code locations to standard output. If object file is specified in command line, llvm-symbolizer processes only addresses from standard input, the rest is output verbatim. This program uses debug info sections and symbol table in the object files.

Example

$ cat addr.txt
a.out 0x4004f4
/tmp/b.out 0x400528
/tmp/c.so 0x710
/tmp/mach_universal_binary:i386 0x1f84
/tmp/mach_universal_binary:x86_64 0x100000f24

Options

-obj: Path to object file to be symbolized.
-functions=[none|short|linkage]: Specify the way function names are printed (omit function name, print short function name, or print full linkage name, respectively). Defaults to linkage.
-use-symbol-table: Prefer function names stored in symbol table to function names in debug info sections. Defaults to true.
-demangle: Print demangled function names. Defaults to true.
-inlining: If a source code location is in an inlined function, prints all the inlnied frames. Defaults to true.
-default-arch: If a binary contains object files for multiple architectures (e.g. it is a Mach-O universal binary), symbolize the object file for a given architecture. You can also specify architecture by writing binary_name:arch_name in the input (see example above). If architecture is not specified in either way, address will not be symbolized. Defaults to empty string.
-dsym-hint=<path/to/file.dSYM>: (Darwin-only flag). If the debug info for a binary isn't present in the default location, look for the debug info at the .dSYM path provided via the -dsym-hint flag. This flag can be used multiple times.
-print-address: Print address before the source code location. Defaults to false.
-pretty-print: Print human readable output. If -inlining is specified, enclosing scope is prefixed by (inlined by). Refer to listed examples.
