llvm-cbe is a resurrected LLVM C Backend that translates LLVM IR into human-readable C code, maintained by Julia Computing with improvements and support for LLVM 22. It is a command-line tool built with CMake that compiles .ll files into C source output.
Use cases
- convert LLVM IR back to C source code
- port compiled binaries to platforms without a native backend
- debug or inspect optimized LLVM IR as readable C
- bootstrap compilers on architectures lacking LLVM codegen support
When to choose
- you need to translate LLVM IR to C for a target with no native LLVM backend
- you want a maintained version of the classic LLVM C backend working with modern LLVM
When to avoid
- you need a production compiler backend with high performance output
- you want to compile source languages directly rather than LLVM IR
