-llvm-nm - list LLVM bitcode file's symbol table

 SYNOPSIS

 DESCRIPTION
 -----------
 
 
-The **llvm-nm** utility lists the names of symbols from the LLVM bitcode files,
-or **ar** archives containing LLVM bitcode files, named on the command line.
-Each symbol is listed along with some simple information about its provenance.
-If no file name is specified, or *-* is used as a file name, **llvm-nm** will
-process a bitcode file on its standard input stream.

-**llvm-nm**'s default output format is the traditional BSD **nm** output format.
-Each such output record consists of an (optional) 8-digit hexadecimal address,
-followed by a type code character, followed by a name, for each symbol. One
-record is printed per line; fields are separated by spaces. When the address is
-omitted, it is replaced by 8 spaces.
