+bugpoint - automatic test case reduction tool
+=============================================
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+
+**bugpoint** [*options*] [*input LLVM ll/bc files*] [*LLVM passes*] **--args**
+*program arguments*
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+**bugpoint** narrows down the source of problems in LLVM tools and passes.  It
+can be used to debug three types of failures: optimizer crashes, miscompilations
+by optimizers, or bad native code generation (including problems in the static
+and JIT compilers).  It aims to reduce large test cases to small, useful ones.
+For more information on the design and inner workings of **bugpoint**, as well as
+advice for using bugpoint, see *llvm/docs/Bugpoint.html* in the LLVM
+distribution.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+
+**--additional-so** *library*
+
+ Load the dynamic shared object *library* into the test program whenever it is
+ run.  This is useful if you are debugging programs which depend on non-LLVM
+ libraries (such as the X or curses libraries) to run.
+
+**--append-exit-code**\ =\ *{true,false}*
+
+ Append the test programs exit code to the output file so that a change in exit
+ code is considered a test failure. Defaults to false.
+
+**--args** *program args*
+
+ Pass all arguments specified after **--args** to the test program whenever it runs.
+ Note that if any of the *program args* start with a "``-``", you should use:
+
+ .. code-block:: bash
+
+      bugpoint [bugpoint args] --args -- [program args]
+
+ The "``--``" right after the **--args** option tells **bugpoint** to consider
+ any options starting with "``-``" to be part of the **--args** option, not as
+ options to **bugpoint** itself.
+
+**--tool-args** *tool args*
+
+ Pass all arguments specified after **--tool-args** to the LLVM tool under test
+ (**llc**, **lli**, etc.) whenever it runs.  You should use this option in the
+ following way:
+
+ .. code-block:: bash
+
+      bugpoint [bugpoint args] --tool-args -- [tool args]
+
+ The "``--``" right after the **--tool-args** option tells **bugpoint** to
+ consider any options starting with "``-``" to be part of the **--tool-args**
+ option, not as options to **bugpoint** itself. (See **--args**, above.)
+
+**--safe-tool-args** *tool args*
+
+ Pass all arguments specified after **--safe-tool-args** to the "safe" execution
+ tool.
+
+**--gcc-tool-args** *gcc tool args*
+
+ Pass all arguments specified after **--gcc-tool-args** to the invocation of
+ **gcc**.
+
+**--opt-args** *opt args*
+
+ Pass all arguments specified after **--opt-args** to the invocation of **opt**.
+
+**--disable-{dce,simplifycfg}**
+
+ Do not run the specified passes to clean up and reduce the size of the test
+ program. By default, **bugpoint** uses these passes internally when attempting to
+ reduce test programs.  If you're trying to find a bug in one of these passes,
+ **bugpoint** may crash.
+
+**--enable-valgrind**
+
+ Use valgrind to find faults in the optimization phase. This will allow
+ bugpoint to find otherwise asymptomatic problems caused by memory
+ mis-management.
+
+**-find-bugs**
+
+ Continually randomize the specified passes and run them on the test program
+ until a bug is found or the user kills **bugpoint**.
+
+**-help**
+
+ Print a summary of command line options.
+
+**--input** *filename*
+
+ Open *filename* and redirect the standard input of the test program, whenever
+ it runs, to come from that file.
+
+**--load** *plugin*
+
+ Load the dynamic object *plugin* into **bugpoint** itself.  This object should
+ register new optimization passes.  Once loaded, the object will add new command
+ line options to enable various optimizations.  To see the new complete list of
+ optimizations, use the **-help** and **--load** options together; for example:
+
+
+ .. code-block:: bash
+
+      bugpoint --load myNewPass.so -help
+
+**--mlimit** *megabytes*
+
+ Specifies an upper limit on memory usage of the optimization and codegen. Set
+ to zero to disable the limit.
+
+**--output** *filename*
+
+ Whenever the test program produces output on its standard output stream, it
+ should match the contents of *filename* (the "reference output"). If you
+ do not use this option, **bugpoint** will attempt to generate a reference output
+ by compiling the program with the "safe" backend and running it.
+
+**--run-{int,jit,llc,custom}**
+
+ Whenever the test program is compiled, **bugpoint** should generate code for it
+ using the specified code generator.  These options allow you to choose the
+ interpreter, the JIT compiler, the static native code compiler, or a
+ custom command (see **--exec-command**) respectively.
+
+**--safe-{llc,custom}**
+
+ When debugging a code generator, **bugpoint** should use the specified code
+ generator as the "safe" code generator. This is a known-good code generator
+ used to generate the "reference output" if it has not been provided, and to
+ compile portions of the program that as they are excluded from the testcase.
+ These options allow you to choose the
+ static native code compiler, or a custom command, (see **--exec-command**)
+ respectively. The interpreter and the JIT backends cannot currently
+ be used as the "safe" backends.
+
+**--exec-command** *command*
+
+ This option defines the command to use with the **--run-custom** and
+ **--safe-custom** options to execute the bitcode testcase. This can
+ be useful for cross-compilation.
+
+**--compile-command** *command*
+
+ This option defines the command to use with the **--compile-custom**
+ option to compile the bitcode testcase. This can be useful for
+ testing compiler output without running any link or execute stages. To
+ generate a reduced unit test, you may add CHECK directives to the
+ testcase and pass the name of an executable compile-command script in this form:
+
+ .. code-block:: sh
+
+      #!/bin/sh
+      llc "$@"
+      not FileCheck [bugpoint input file].ll < bugpoint-test-program.s
+
+ This script will "fail" as long as FileCheck passes. So the result
+ will be the minimum bitcode that passes FileCheck.
+
+**--safe-path** *path*
+
+ This option defines the path to the command to execute with the
+ **--safe-{int,jit,llc,custom}**
+ option.
+
+EXIT STATUS
+-----------
+
+If **bugpoint** succeeds in finding a problem, it will exit with 0.  Otherwise,
+if an error occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value.
