LLVM-ADDR2LINE(1)

💖 llvm-addr2line — bestie's guide to the LLVM manual, section 1 🎀

okay so picture this: it's llvm-addr2line, from the LLVM manual collection, and it's literally a drop-in replacement for addr2line. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it ✨

✨ NAME ✨

llvm-addr2line — a drop-in replacement for addr2line 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

llvm-addr2line [options]

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea, bestie 🍓: llvm-addr2line is an alias for the llvm-symbolizer(1) tool but with different defaults. the whole goal, the entire mission, the main character energy of this thing, is to make it a drop-in replacement for GNU's addr2line. periodt.

here are some of those differences, and yes we're listing all of them, no skipping 🙈:

• llvm-addr2line interprets all addresses as hexadecimal and ignores an optional 0x prefix, whereas llvm-symbolizer attempts to determine the base from the literal's prefix and defaults to decimal if there is no prefix. not me caring about your 0x… it's giving unbothered 👑
• llvm-addr2line defaults to not print function names. use -f to enable that. she's mysterious by default, okay?
• llvm-addr2line defaults to not demangle function names. use -C to switch the demangling on. the names stay crunchy until you ask nicely ✨
• llvm-addr2line defaults to not print inlined frames. use -i to show inlined frames for a source code location in an inlined function. the frames are lowkey hiding until you say the word 🫶
• llvm-addr2line uses --output-style=GNU by default. iconic, no notes.
• llvm-addr2line parses options from the environment variable LLVM_ADDR2LINE_OPTS instead of from LLVM_SYMBOLIZER_OPTS. she has her own little diary, mind your business 💖
