.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
\fBllvm\-pdbutil\fP [\fIsubcommand\fP] [\fIoptions\fP]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
Display types, symbols, CodeView records, and other information from a
PDB file, as well as manipulate and create PDB files.  \fBllvm\-pdbutil\fP
is normally used by FileCheck\-based tests to test LLVM\(aqs PDB reading and
writing functionality, but can also be used for general PDB file investigation
and forensics, or as a replacement for cvdump.
.SH SUBCOMMANDS
.sp
\fBllvm\-pdbutil\fP is separated into several subcommands each tailored to
a different purpose.  A brief summary of each command follows, with more detail
in the sections that follow.
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
.INDENT 0.0
.IP \(bu 2
\fI\%pretty\fP \- Dump symbol and type information in a format that
tries to look as much like the original source code as possible.
.IP \(bu 2
\fI\%dump\fP \- Dump low level types and structures from the PDB
file, including CodeView records, hash tables, PDB streams, etc.
.IP \(bu 2
\fI\%bytes\fP \- Dump data from the PDB file\(aqs streams, records,
types, symbols, etc as raw bytes.
.IP \(bu 2
\fI\%yaml2pdb\fP \- Given a yaml description of a PDB file, produce
a valid PDB file that matches that description.
.IP \(bu 2
\fI\%pdb2yaml\fP \- For a given PDB file, produce a YAML
description of some or all of the file in a way that the PDB can be
reconstructed.
.IP \(bu 2
\fI\%merge\fP \- Given two PDBs, produce a third PDB that is the
result of merging the two input PDBs.

The \fBpretty\fP subcommand is built on the Windows DIA SDK, and as such is not

USAGE: \fBllvm\-pdbutil\fP pretty [\fIoptions\fP] <input PDB file>
.SS Summary
.sp
The \fIpretty\fP subcommand displays a very high level representation of your
program\(aqs debug info.  Since it is built on the Windows DIA SDK which is the
standard API that Windows tools and debuggers query debug information, it
presents a more authoritative view of how a debugger is going to interpret your
debug information than a mode which displays low\-level CodeView records.

.sp
The \fBdump\fP subcommand displays low level information about the structure of a

\fIcvdump\fP tool.

.SS bytes
.sp
USAGE: \fBllvm\-pdbutil\fP bytes [\fIoptions\fP] <input PDB file>
.SS Summary
.sp
Like the \fBdump\fP subcommand, the \fBbytes\fP subcommand displays low level
information about the structure of a PDB file, but it is used for even deeper
forensics.  The \fBbytes\fP subcommand finds various structures in a PDB file
based on the command line options specified, and dumps them in hex.  Someone
working on support for emitting PDBs would use this heavily, for example, to
compare one PDB against another PDB to ensure byte\-for\-byte compatibility.  It
is not enough to simply compare the bytes of an entire file, or an entire stream
because it\(aqs perfectly fine for the same structure to exist at different
locations in two different PDBs, and "finding" the structure is half the battle.
