[LLVMdev] lli supports different targets than llc? (original) (raw)

Hi,

Is it normal/expected for llc to support a different set of targets than lli? I have a hello.ll on which this works:

$ llc -mtriple=armv7a-linux-gnueabihf hello.ll

OK, generates hello.s

But this doesn't:

$ lli -mtriple=armv7a-linux-gnueabihf hello.ll

lli: error creating EE: No available targets are compatible with

this triple, see -version for the available targets.

I'm using LLVM from the git mirror:

$ lli -version LLVM (http://llvm.org/): LLVM version 3.7.0svn Optimized build. Built Jun 19 2015 (17:35:44). Default target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu Host CPU: broadwell

I thought they would both support the same targets... Why isn't that the case?

Thanks,

Débora.
