Clang nvlink Wrapper

Introduction
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
This tool works as a wrapper around the NVIDIA ``nvlink`` linker. The purpose
|
|
of this wrapper is to provide an interface similar to the ``ld.lld`` linker
|
|
while still relying on NVIDIA's proprietary linker to produce the final output.
|
|
|
|
``nvlink`` has a number of known quirks that make it difficult to use in a
|
|
unified offloading setting. For example, it does not accept ``.o`` files as they
|
|
must be named ``.cubin``. Static archives do not work, so passing a ``.a`` will
|
|
provide a linker error. ``nvlink`` also does not support link time optimization
|
|
and ignores many standard linker arguments. This tool works around these issues.
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
This tool can be used with the following options. Any arguments not intended
|
|
only for the linker wrapper will be forwarded to ``nvlink``.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console

OVERVIEW: A utility that wraps around the NVIDIA 'nvlink' linker.
|
|
This enables static linking and LTO handling for NVPTX targets.
|
|
|
|
USAGE: clang-nvlink-wrapper [options] <options to passed to nvlink>
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS:
|
|
--arch <value> Specify the 'sm_' name of the target architecture.
|
|
--cuda-path=<dir> Set the system CUDA path
|
|
--dry-run Print generated commands without running.
|
|
--feature <value> Specify the '+ptx' feature to use for LTO.
|
|
-g Specify that this was a debug compile.
|
|
-help-hidden Display all available options
|
|
-help Display available options (--help-hidden for more)
|
|
-L <dir> Add <dir> to the library search path
|
|
-l <libname> Search for library <libname>
|
|
-mllvm <arg> Arguments passed to LLVM, including Clang invocations,
|
|
for which the '-mllvm' prefix is preserved. Use '-mllvm
|
|
--help' for a list of options.
|
|
-o <path> Path to file to write output
|
|
--plugin-opt=jobs=<value>
|
|
Number of LTO codegen partitions
|
|
--plugin-opt=lto-partitions=<value>
|
|
Number of LTO codegen partitions
|
|
--plugin-opt=O<O0, O1, O2, or O3>
|
|
Optimization level for LTO
|
|
--plugin-opt=thinlto<value>
|
|
Enable the thin-lto backend
|
|
--plugin-opt=<value> Arguments passed to LLVM, including Clang invocations,
|
|
for which the '-mllvm' prefix is preserved. Use '-mllvm
|
|
--help' for a list of options.
|
|
--save-temps Save intermediate results
|
|
--version Display the version number and exit
|
|
-v Print verbose information
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
This tool is intended to be invoked when targeting the NVPTX toolchain directly
|
|
as a cross-compiling target. This can be used to create standalone GPU
|
|
executables with normal linking semantics similar to standard compilation.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
clang --target=nvptx64-nvidia-cuda -march=native -flto=full input.c
