llvm-as: Assemble an IR file.
$ llvm-as -o ${path-to-out-bc} ${path-to-source-ll}
try on your machine
This command is used to convert LLVM assembly files (.ll) into LLVM bitcode files (.bc).
Here's a breakdown of the command:
llvm-as: This is the command that invokes the LLVM assembler.-o ${path-to-out-bc}: This specifies the output file path for the resulting LLVM bitcode file.${path-to-out-bc}should be replaced with the desired output file path.${path-to-source-ll}: This specifies the input file path of the LLVM assembly file that needs to be converted to LLVM bitcode.${path-to-source-ll}should be replaced with the path to the source .ll file.
So essentially, when you execute this command, it takes the input LLVM assembly file (.ll), as specified by ${path-to-source-ll}, converts it to LLVM bitcode file (.bc), and saves it to the location specified by ${path-to-out-bc}.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
