=head1 NAME

codegen-diff

=head1 SYNOPSIS

codegen-diff [-d] I<OBJDUMP-OUTPUT-FILE> I<GDB-DISASSEMBLY-FILE>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<codegen-diff> is a program that tries to show you the differences
between the code that B<llc> generated and the code that B<lli> generated.

The way you use it is as follows: first, you create I<OBJDUMP-OUTPUT-FILE>
by running B<objdump> on the B<llc> compiled and linked binary. You need to
trim down the result so it contains only the function of interest.

Second, you create I<GDB-DISASSEMBLY-FILE> by running B<gdb>, with my patch
to print out hex bytes in the B<disassemble> command output, on
B<lli>.  Set a breakpoint in C<Emitter::finishFunction()> and wait until
the function you want is compiled.  Then use the B<disassemble> command
to print out the assembly dump of the function B<lli> just compiled.
(Use C<lli -debug> to find out where the function starts and ends in memory.)
It's easiest to save this output by using B<script>.

Finally, you run B<codegen-diff>, as indicated in the Synopsis section of
this manpage. It will print out a two-line stanza for each mismatched
instruction, with the  B<llc> version first, and the  B<lli> version second.

=head1 OPTIONS

=over 4

=item -d

Don't show instructions where the bytes are different but they
disassemble to the same thing. This puts a lot of trust in the
disassembler, but it might help you highlight the more egregious cases
of misassembly.
