+llvm-nm - list LLVM bitcode and object file's symbol table
+==========================================================
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+
+:program:`llvm-nm` [*options*] [*filenames...*]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+The :program:`llvm-nm` utility lists the names of symbols from the LLVM bitcode
+files, object files, or :program:`ar` archives containing them, 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,
+:program:`llvm-nm` will process a file on its standard input stream.
+
+:program:`llvm-nm`'s default output format is the traditional BSD :program:`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.
+
+Type code characters currently supported, and their meanings, are as follows:
+
+U
+
+ Named object is referenced but undefined in this bitcode file
+
+C
+
+ Common (multiple definitions link together into one def)
+
+W
+
+ Weak reference (multiple definitions link together into zero or one definitions)
+
+t
+
+ Local function (text) object
+
+T
+
+ Global function (text) object
+
+d
+
+ Local data object
+
+D
+
+ Global data object
+
+?
+
+ Something unrecognizable
+
+Because LLVM bitcode files typically contain objects that are not considered to
+have addresses until they are linked into an executable image or dynamically
+compiled "just-in-time", :program:`llvm-nm` does not print an address for any
+symbol in an LLVM bitcode file, even symbols which are defined in the bitcode
+file.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+
+.. program:: llvm-nm
+
+.. option:: -B    (default)
+
+ Use BSD output format.  Alias for :option:`--format=bsd`.
+
+.. option:: -P
+
+ Use POSIX.2 output format.  Alias for :option:`--format=posix`.
+
+.. option:: --debug-syms, -a
+
+ Show all symbols, even debugger only.
+
+.. option:: --defined-only
+
+ Print only symbols defined in this file (as opposed to
+ symbols which may be referenced by objects in this file, but not
+ defined in this file.)
+
+.. option:: --dynamic, -D
+
+ Display dynamic symbols instead of normal symbols.
+
+.. option:: --extern-only, -g
+
+ Print only symbols whose definitions are external; that is, accessible
+ from other files.
+
+.. option:: --format=format, -f format
+
+ Select an output format; *format* may be *sysv*, *posix*, or *bsd*.  The default
+ is *bsd*.
+
+.. option:: -help
+
+ Print a summary of command-line options and their meanings.
+
+.. option:: --no-sort, -p
+
+ Shows symbols in order encountered.
+
+.. option:: --numeric-sort, -n, -v
+
+ Sort symbols by address.
+
+.. option:: --print-file-name, -A, -o
+
+ Precede each symbol with the file it came from.
+
+.. option:: --print-size, -S
+
+ Show symbol size instead of address.
+
+.. option:: --size-sort
+
+ Sort symbols by size.
+
+.. option:: --undefined-only, -u
+
+ Print only symbols referenced but not defined in this file.
+
+BUGS
+----
+
+ * :program:`llvm-nm` cannot demangle C++ mangled names, like GNU :program:`nm`
+   can.
+
+ * :program:`llvm-nm` does not support the full set of arguments that GNU
+   :program:`nm` does.
+
+EXIT STATUS
+-----------
+
+:program:`llvm-nm` exits with an exit code of zero.
