These command-line options are defined for LoongArch targets:
-march=cpu-type
Generate instructions for the machine type cpu-type. In contrast to -mtune=cpu-type, which merely tunes the generated code for the specified cpu-type, -march=cpu-type allows GCC to generate code that may not run at all on processors other than the one indicated. Specifying -march=cpu-type implies -mtune=cpu-type, except where noted otherwise.
The choices for cpu-type are:
This selects the CPU to generate code for at compilation time by determining the processor type of the compiling machine. Using -march=native enables all instruction subsets supported by the local machine (hence the result might not run on different machines). Using -mtune=native produces code optimized for the local machine under the constraints of the selected instruction set.
A generic CPU with 64-bit extensions.
LoongArch LA464 CPU with LBT, LSX, LASX, LVZ.
-mtune=cpu-type
Optimize the output for the given processor, specified by microarchitecture name.
-mabi=base-abi-type
Generate code for the specified calling convention. base-abi-type can be one of:
Uses 64-bit general purpose registers and 32/64-bit floating-point registers for parameter passing. Data model is LP64, where int is 32 bits, while long int and pointers are 64 bits.
Uses 64-bit general purpose registers and 32-bit floating-point registers for parameter passing. Data model is LP64, where int is 32 bits, while long int and pointers are 64 bits.
Uses 64-bit general purpose registers and no floating-point registers for parameter passing. Data model is LP64, where int is 32 bits, while long int and pointers are 64 bits.
-mfpu=fpu-type
Generate code for the specified FPU type, which can be one of:
Allow the use of hardware floating-point instructions for 32-bit and 64-bit operations.
Allow the use of hardware floating-point instructions for 32-bit operations.
Prevent the use of hardware floating-point instructions.
-msoft-float
Force -mfpu=none and prevents the use of floating-point registers for parameter passing. This option may change the target ABI.
-msingle-float
Force -mfpu=32 and allow the use of 32-bit floating-point registers for parameter passing. This option may change the target ABI.
-mdouble-float
Force -mfpu=64 and allow the use of 32/64-bit floating-point registers for parameter passing. This option may change the target ABI.
-mbranch-cost=n
Set the cost of branches to roughly n instructions.
-mcheck-zero-division
-mno-check-zero-divison
Trap (do not trap) on integer division by zero. The default is -mcheck-zero-division for -O0 or -Og, and -mno-check-zero-division for other optimization levels.
-mcond-move-int
-mno-cond-move-int
Conditional moves for integral data in general-purpose registers are enabled (disabled). The default is -mcond-move-int.
-mcond-move-float
-mno-cond-move-float
Conditional moves for floating-point registers are enabled (disabled). The default is -mcond-move-float.
-mmemcpy
-mno-memcpy
Force (do not force) the use of memcpy
for non-trivial block moves. The default is -mno-memcpy, which allows GCC to inline most constant-sized copies. Setting optimization level to -Os also forces the use of memcpy
, but -mno-memcpy may override this behavior if explicitly specified, regardless of the order these options on the command line.
-mstrict-align
-mno-strict-align
Avoid or allow generating memory accesses that may not be aligned on a natural object boundary as described in the architecture specification. The default is -mno-strict-align.
-msmall-data-limit=number
Put global and static data smaller than number bytes into a special section (on some targets). The default value is 0.
-mmax-inline-memcpy-size=n
Inline all block moves (such as calls to memcpy
or structure copies) less than or equal to n bytes. The default value of n is 1024.
-mcmodel=code-model
Set the code model to one of:
The text segment must be within 128MB addressing space. The data segment must be within 2GB addressing space.
The text segment and data segment must be within 2GB addressing space.
This mode does not limit the size of the code segment and data segment. The -mcmodel=extreme option is incompatible with -fplt and -mno-explicit-relocs.
The default code model is normal
.
-mexplicit-relocs
-mno-explicit-relocs
Use or do not use assembler relocation operators when dealing with symbolic addresses. The alternative is to use assembler macros instead, which may limit optimization. The default value for the option is determined during GCC build-time by detecting corresponding assembler support: -mexplicit-relocs
if said support is present, -mno-explicit-relocs
otherwise. This option is mostly useful for debugging, or interoperation with assemblers different from the build-time one.
-mdirect-extern-access
-mno-direct-extern-access
Do not use or use GOT to access external symbols. The default is -mno-direct-extern-access: GOT is used for external symbols with default visibility, but not used for other external symbols.
With -mdirect-extern-access, GOT is not used and all external symbols are PC-relatively addressed. It is only suitable for environments where no dynamic link is performed, like firmwares, OS kernels, executables linked with -static or -static-pie. -mdirect-extern-access is not compatible with -fPIC or -fpic.
