=head1 DESCRIPTION
-blhc is a small tool which checks build logs for missing hardening flags and
-other important warnings. It's licensed under the GPL 3 or later.
+blhc is a small tool which checks build logs for missing hardening flags. It's
+licensed under the GPL 3 or later.
+
+It's designed to check build logs generated by Debian's dpkg-buildpackage (or
+tools using dpkg-buildpackage like pbuilder or the official buildd build logs)
+to help maintainers detect missing hardening flags in their packages.

command uses the required hardening flag (e.g. -fPIE). Then it's required for
all other commands as well.
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+Normal usage, parse a single log file.
+
+ blhc path/to/log/file
+
+Parse multiple log files. The exit code is ORed over all files.
+
+ blhc path/to/directory/with/log/files/*
+
+Don't treat missing C<-g> as error:
+
+ blhc --ignore-flag -g path/to/log/file
+
+Ignore lines consisting exactly of C<./script gcc file> which would cause a
+false positive.
+
+ blhc --ignore-line '\./script gcc file' path/to/log/file
+
+Ignore lines matching C<./script gcc file> somewhere in the line.
+
+ blhc --ignore-line '.*\./script gcc file.*' path/to/log/file
+
+Use blhc with pbuilder.
+
+ pbuilder path/to/package.dsc | tee path/log/file
+ blhc path/to/file || echo flags missing
+
+=head1 BUILDD TAGS
+
+The following tags are used in I<--buildd> mode. In braces the additional data
+which is displayed.
+
+=over 2
+
+=item
+
+B<I-hardening-wrapper-used>
+
+The package uses hardening-wrapper which intercepts calls to gcc and adds
+hardening flags. The build log doesn't contain any hardening flags and thus
+can't be checked by blhc.
+
+=item
+
+B<W-compiler-flags-hidden> (summary of hidden lines)
+
+Build log contains lines which hide the real compiler flags. For example:
+
+ CC test-a.c
+ CC test-b.c
+ CC test-c.c
+ LD test
+
+Most of the time either C<export V=1> or C<export verbose=1> in
+F<debian/rules> fixes builds with hidden compiler flags. Sometimes C<.SILENT>
+in a F<Makefile> must be removed. And as last resort the F<Makefile> must be
+patched to remove the C<@>s hiding the real compiler commands.
+
+=item
+
+B<W-dpkg-buildflags-missing> (summary of missing flags)
+
+CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS missing.
+
+=item
+
+B<W-invalid-cmake-used> (version)
+
+=item
+
+B<W-no-compiler-commands>
+
+No compiler commands were detected. Either the log contains none or they were
+not correctly detected by blhc (please report the bug in this case).
+
