cargo-asm

crates.io version Travis build status Appveyor build status License

A cargo subcommand that displays the assembly or llvm-ir generated for Rust source code.

Install

cargo install cargo-asm

Example

To view the assembly of the function double_n in the module bar of the crate lib_crate annotated with its corresponding Rust code, go to the crate's root directory

git clone git@github.com:gnzlbg/cargo-asm.git
cd cargo-asm/cargo-asm-test/lib_crate

and type:

cargo asm lib_crate::bar::double_n --rust

which outputs:

(note: the source-code mapping information emitted by rustc after optimizations is sometimes far from perfect, like in this case. Take it with a grain of salt.)

To view the LLVM IR type

cargo llvm-ir lib_crate::bar::double_n

Features

  • Platform support:

    • OS: Linux, Windows, and MacOSX.
    • Rust: nightly and stable.
    • Architectures: x86, x86_64, arm, aarch64, powerpc, mips, sparc.
  • Displaying:

    • Assembly in Intel or AT&T syntax.
    • Corresponding Rust source code alongside assembly.
    • JSON AST for further processing.
    • LLVM-IR.
  • Querying:

    • functions, for example: foo:
    cargo asm crate::path::to::foo
    
    • inherent method, for example: foo of a type Foo (that is, Foo::foo):
    cargo asm crate::path::to::Foo::foo
    
    • trait method implementations, for example: bar of the trait Bar for the type Foo:
    cargo asm "<crate::path::to::Foo as crate::path::to::Bar>::bar"
    
    • generic functions, methods, ...

To search for a function named foo in some path, one can just type cargo asm foo. The command will return a list of all similarly named functions independently of the path.
