+Introduction
+============
+
+This tool works as a wrapper over nvlink program. It is required because nvlink does not
+support linking of archive files implicitly. It transparently passes every
+input option and objects to nvlink except archive files. It reads each input
+archive file to extract archived cubin files as temporary files.
+These temp (*.cubin) files are passed to nvlink.
+
+During linking of heterogeneous device archive libraries with an OpenMP program,
+the `Clang Offload Bundler <https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangOffloadBundler.html>`_
+creates a device specific archive of cubin files. Such an archive is then
+passed to this wrapper tool to extract cubin files before passing to nvlink.
+
+Working
+=======
+
+**Inputs**
+
+ A command line generated by the OpenMP-Clang driver targeting NVPTX, containing a set of flags, cubin object files, and zero or more archive files
+
+Example::
+
+ clang-nvlink-wrapper main.cubin /tmp/libTest-nvptx-sm_50.a -o a.out-openmp-nvptx64
+
+**Processing**
+
+ 1. From each archive file extract all cubin files as temporary files and store their names in a list, CubinFiles.
+ 2. Create a new command line, `NVLinkCommand`, such that
+ * Program is nvlink
+ * All input flags are transparently passed on as flags
+ * All input archive file are replaced with CubinFiles
+ 3. Execute NVLinkCommand
+
+::
+
+ 1. Extract (libTest-nvptx-sm_50.a) => /tmp/a.cubin /tmp/b.cubin
+ 2. nvlink -o a.out-openmp-nvptx64 main.cubin /tmp/a.cubin /tmp/b.cubin
+
+**Output**
+
+ Output file generated by nvlink by linking all cubin files.
