Useful tools built on llvm-analysis.

This package includes some tools to visualize the LLVM IR. Current visualizations include static call graphs, CFGs, CDGs, dominator trees, and some simple escape graphs. Output formats include most graphviz-supported formats, along with an HTML-based format.

Usage

Options for the visualizer:

-o --output=[FILE or DIR]  The destination of a file output
-t --type=[GRAPHTYPE]      The graph requested.  One of Cfg, Cdg, Cg,
                           Domtree, Postdomtree
-f --format=GVOUT          The type of output to produce: Gtk, Xlib, Html, XDot,
                           Eps, Jpeg, Pdf, Png, Ps, Ps2, Svg.  Default: Gtk
-? --help                  Display help message

For all graph types except the call graph, the output specifies a directory. The directory will contain one output file for each function in the input IR module. For the static call graph, the output is a single file. If the format is 'Html', the output is always a directory.

The Html format is special. It produces an SVG embedded in an HTML page. The SVG can be navigated (via panning and zooming) using an openstreetmap-style interface (it uses the OpenLayers library).

Input files can be LLVM bitcode files, LLVM assembly files, or C/C++ source files.

Dependencies

This package depends on a few other Haskell libraries that are not yet on Hackage:

• hbgl
• haggle
• ifscs
• llvm-base-types
• llvm-data-interop
• llvm-analysis

Additionally, it requires that you have the LLVM shared libraries (versions 3.0-3.2) and tools installed on your system (llvm-config must be in your PATH).

Installation

Installation would look something like:

REPOSITORIES="hbgl-experimental
haggle
ifscs
itanium-abi
llvm-base-types
llvm-data-interop
llvm-analysis
llvm-tools"

# Download the repositories
for REPO in $REPOSITORIES
do
  git clone git://github.com/travitch/$REPO.git
done

# Add ./ prefixes to each repository (for cabal)
TOINSTALL=`echo ./$REPOSITORIES  | sed 's: : ./:g'`

# Build the tools along with dependencies
cabal install $TOINSTALL
