Node: Relax Directive, Next: Longcalls Directive, Previous: Density Directive, Up: Xtensa Directives

### relax

The `relax` directive enables or disables relaxation within the region. See Xtensa Relaxation. Note: In the current implementation, these directives also control whether assembler optimizations are performed, making them equivalent to the `generics` and `no-generics` directives.

             .begin [no-]relax
             .end [no-]relax

Relaxation is enabled by default unless the `--no-relax` command-line option was specified.
