Exception Handling Support
--------------------------

`EH_RETURN_DATA_REGNO (N)'
     A C expression whose value is the Nth register number used for
     data by exception handlers, or `INVALID_REGNUM' if fewer than N
     registers are usable.

     The exception handling library routines communicate with the
     exception handlers via a set of agreed upon registers.  Ideally
     these registers should be call-clobbered; it is possible to use
     call-saved registers, but may negatively impact code size.  The
     target must support at least 2 data registers, but should define 4
     if there are enough free registers.

     You must define this macro if you want to support call frame
     exception handling like that provided by DWARF 2.

`EH_RETURN_STACKADJ_RTX'
     A C expression whose value is RTL representing a location in which
     to store a stack adjustment to be applied before function return.
     This is used to unwind the stack to an exception handler's call
     frame.  It will be assigned zero on code paths that return
     normally.

     Typically this is a call-clobbered hard register that is otherwise
     untouched by the epilogue, but could also be a stack slot.

     You must define this macro if you want to support call frame
     exception handling like that provided by DWARF 2.

`EH_RETURN_HANDLER_RTX'
     A C expression whose value is RTL representing a location in which
     to store the address of an exception handler to which we should
     return.  It will not be assigned on code paths that return
     normally.

     Typically this is the location in the call frame at which the
     normal return address is stored.  For targets that return by
     popping an address off the stack, this might be a memory address
     just below the _target_ call frame rather than inside the current
     call frame.  `EH_RETURN_STACKADJ_RTX' will have already been
     assigned, so it may be used to calculate the location of the
     target call frame.

     Some targets have more complex requirements than storing to an
     address calculable during initial code generation.  In that case
     the `eh_return' instruction pattern should be used instead.

     If you want to support call frame exception handling, you must
     define either this macro or the `eh_return' instruction pattern.

`ASM_PREFERRED_EH_DATA_FORMAT(CODE, GLOBAL)'
     This macro chooses the encoding of pointers embedded in the
     exception handling sections.  If at all possible, this should be
     defined such that the exception handling section will not require
     dynamic relocations, and so may be read-only.

     CODE is 0 for data, 1 for code labels, 2 for function pointers.
     GLOBAL is true if the symbol may be affected by dynamic
     relocations.  The macro should return a combination of the
     `DW_EH_PE_*' defines as found in `dwarf2.h'.

     If this macro is not defined, pointers will not be encoded but
     represented directly.

`ASM_MAYBE_OUTPUT_ENCODED_ADDR_RTX(FILE, ENCODING, SIZE, ADDR, DONE)'
     This macro allows the target to emit whatever special magic is
     required to represent the encoding chosen by
     `ASM_PREFERRED_EH_DATA_FORMAT'.  Generic code takes care of
     pc-relative and indirect encodings; this must be defined if the
     target uses text-relative or data-relative encodings.

     This is a C statement that branches to DONE if the format was
     handled.  ENCODING is the format chosen, SIZE is the number of
     bytes that the format occupies, ADDR is the `SYMBOL_REF' to be
     emitted.

`MD_FALLBACK_FRAME_STATE_FOR(CONTEXT, FS, SUCCESS)'
     This macro allows the target to add cpu and operating system
     specific code to the call-frame unwinder for use when there is no
     unwind data available.  The most common reason to implement this
     macro is to unwind through signal frames.

     This macro is called from `uw_frame_state_for' in `unwind-dw2.c'
     and `unwind-ia64.c'.  CONTEXT is an `_Unwind_Context'; FS is an
     `_Unwind_FrameState'.  Examine `context->ra' for the address of
     the code being executed and `context->cfa' for the stack pointer
     value.  If the frame can be decoded, the register save addresses
     should be updated in FS and the macro should branch to SUCCESS.
     If the frame cannot be decoded, the macro should do nothing.

Specifying How Stack Checking is Done
-------------------------------------

GCC will check that stack references are within the boundaries of the
stack, if the `-fstack-check' is specified, in one of three ways:

  1. If the value of the `STACK_CHECK_BUILTIN' macro is nonzero, GCC
     will assume that you have arranged for stack checking to be done at
     appropriate places in the configuration files, e.g., in
     `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_PROLOGUE'.  GCC will do not other special
     processing.

  2. If `STACK_CHECK_BUILTIN' is zero and you defined a named pattern
     called `check_stack' in your `md' file, GCC will call that pattern
     with one argument which is the address to compare the stack value
     against.  You must arrange for this pattern to report an error if
     the stack pointer is out of range.

  3. If neither of the above are true, GCC will generate code to
     periodically "probe" the stack pointer using the values of the
     macros defined below.

   Normally, you will use the default values of these macros, so GCC
will use the third approach.

`STACK_CHECK_BUILTIN'
     A nonzero value if stack checking is done by the configuration
     files in a machine-dependent manner.  You should define this macro
     if stack checking is require by the ABI of your machine or if you
     would like to have to stack checking in some more efficient way
     than GCC's portable approach.  The default value of this macro is
     zero.

`STACK_CHECK_PROBE_INTERVAL'
     An integer representing the interval at which GCC must generate
     stack probe instructions.  You will normally define this macro to
     be no larger than the size of the "guard pages" at the end of a
     stack area.  The default value of 4096 is suitable for most
     systems.

`STACK_CHECK_PROBE_LOAD'
     A integer which is nonzero if GCC should perform the stack probe
     as a load instruction and zero if GCC should use a store
     instruction.  The default is zero, which is the most efficient
     choice on most systems.

`STACK_CHECK_PROTECT'
     The number of bytes of stack needed to recover from a stack
     overflow, for languages where such a recovery is supported.  The
     default value of 75 words should be adequate for most machines.

`STACK_CHECK_MAX_FRAME_SIZE'
     The maximum size of a stack frame, in bytes.  GCC will generate
     probe instructions in non-leaf functions to ensure at least this
     many bytes of stack are available.  If a stack frame is larger
     than this size, stack checking will not be reliable and GCC will
     issue a warning.  The default is chosen so that GCC only generates
     one instruction on most systems.  You should normally not change
     the default value of this macro.

`STACK_CHECK_FIXED_FRAME_SIZE'
     GCC uses this value to generate the above warning message.  It
     represents the amount of fixed frame used by a function, not
     including space for any callee-saved registers, temporaries and
     user variables.  You need only specify an upper bound for this
     amount and will normally use the default of four words.

`STACK_CHECK_MAX_VAR_SIZE'
     The maximum size, in bytes, of an object that GCC will place in the
     fixed area of the stack frame when the user specifies
     `-fstack-check'.  GCC computed the default from the values of the
     above macros and you will normally not need to override that
     default.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Frame Registers,  Next: Elimination,  Prev: Stack Checking,  Up: Stack and Calling

Registers That Address the Stack Frame
--------------------------------------

This discusses registers that address the stack frame.

`STACK_POINTER_REGNUM'
     The register number of the stack pointer register, which must also
     be a fixed register according to `FIXED_REGISTERS'.  On most
     machines, the hardware determines which register this is.

`FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM'
     The register number of the frame pointer register, which is used to
     access automatic variables in the stack frame.  On some machines,
     the hardware determines which register this is.  On other
     machines, you can choose any register you wish for this purpose.

`HARD_FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM'
     On some machines the offset between the frame pointer and starting
     offset of the automatic variables is not known until after register
     allocation has been done (for example, because the saved registers
     are between these two locations).  On those machines, define
     `FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM' the number of a special, fixed register to
     be used internally until the offset is known, and define
     `HARD_FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM' to be the actual hard register number
     used for the frame pointer.

     You should define this macro only in the very rare circumstances
     when it is not possible to calculate the offset between the frame
     pointer and the automatic variables until after register
     allocation has been completed.  When this macro is defined, you
     must also indicate in your definition of `ELIMINABLE_REGS' how to
     eliminate `FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM' into either
     `HARD_FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM' or `STACK_POINTER_REGNUM'.

     Do not define this macro if it would be the same as
     `FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM'.

`ARG_POINTER_REGNUM'
     The register number of the arg pointer register, which is used to
     access the function's argument list.  On some machines, this is
     the same as the frame pointer register.  On some machines, the
     hardware determines which register this is.  On other machines,
     you can choose any register you wish for this purpose.  If this is
     not the same register as the frame pointer register, then you must
     mark it as a fixed register according to `FIXED_REGISTERS', or
     arrange to be able to eliminate it (*note Elimination::).

`RETURN_ADDRESS_POINTER_REGNUM'
     The register number of the return address pointer register, which
     is used to access the current function's return address from the
     stack.  On some machines, the return address is not at a fixed
     offset from the frame pointer or stack pointer or argument
     pointer.  This register can be defined to point to the return
     address on the stack, and then be converted by `ELIMINABLE_REGS'
     into either the frame pointer or stack pointer.

     Do not define this macro unless there is no other way to get the
     return address from the stack.

`STATIC_CHAIN_REGNUM'
`STATIC_CHAIN_INCOMING_REGNUM'
     Register numbers used for passing a function's static chain
     pointer.  If register windows are used, the register number as
     seen by the called function is `STATIC_CHAIN_INCOMING_REGNUM',
     while the register number as seen by the calling function is
     `STATIC_CHAIN_REGNUM'.  If these registers are the same,
     `STATIC_CHAIN_INCOMING_REGNUM' need not be defined.

     The static chain register need not be a fixed register.

     If the static chain is passed in memory, these macros should not be
     defined; instead, the next two macros should be defined.

`STATIC_CHAIN'
`STATIC_CHAIN_INCOMING'
     If the static chain is passed in memory, these macros provide rtx
     giving `mem' expressions that denote where they are stored.
     `STATIC_CHAIN' and `STATIC_CHAIN_INCOMING' give the locations as
     seen by the calling and called functions, respectively.  Often the
     former will be at an offset from the stack pointer and the latter
     at an offset from the frame pointer.

     The variables `stack_pointer_rtx', `frame_pointer_rtx', and
     `arg_pointer_rtx' will have been initialized prior to the use of
     these macros and should be used to refer to those items.

     If the static chain is passed in a register, the two previous
     macros should be defined instead.

`DWARF_FRAME_REGISTERS'
     This macro specifies the maximum number of hard registers that can
     be saved in a call frame.  This is used to size data structures
     used in DWARF2 exception handling.

     Prior to GCC 3.0, this macro was needed in order to establish a
     stable exception handling ABI in the face of adding new hard
     registers for ISA extensions.  In GCC 3.0 and later, the EH ABI is
     insulated from changes in the number of hard registers.
     Nevertheless, this macro can still be used to reduce the runtime
     memory requirements of the exception handling routines, which can
     be substantial if the ISA contains a lot of registers that are not
     call-saved.

     If this macro is not defined, it defaults to
     `FIRST_PSEUDO_REGISTER'.

`PRE_GCC3_DWARF_FRAME_REGISTERS'
     This macro is similar to `DWARF_FRAME_REGISTERS', but is provided
     for backward compatibility in pre GCC 3.0 compiled code.

     If this macro is not defined, it defaults to
     `DWARF_FRAME_REGISTERS'.



File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Elimination,  Next: Stack Arguments,  Prev: Frame Registers,  Up: Stack and Calling

Eliminating Frame Pointer and Arg Pointer
-----------------------------------------

This is about eliminating the frame pointer and arg pointer.

`FRAME_POINTER_REQUIRED'
     A C expression which is nonzero if a function must have and use a
     frame pointer.  This expression is evaluated  in the reload pass.
     If its value is nonzero the function will have a frame pointer.

     The expression can in principle examine the current function and
     decide according to the facts, but on most machines the constant 0
     or the constant 1 suffices.  Use 0 when the machine allows code to
     be generated with no frame pointer, and doing so saves some time
     or space.  Use 1 when there is no possible advantage to avoiding a
     frame pointer.

     In certain cases, the compiler does not know how to produce valid
     code without a frame pointer.  The compiler recognizes those cases
     and automatically gives the function a frame pointer regardless of
     what `FRAME_POINTER_REQUIRED' says.  You don't need to worry about
     them.

     In a function that does not require a frame pointer, the frame
     pointer register can be allocated for ordinary usage, unless you
     mark it as a fixed register.  See `FIXED_REGISTERS' for more
     information.

`INITIAL_FRAME_POINTER_OFFSET (DEPTH-VAR)'
     A C statement to store in the variable DEPTH-VAR the difference
     between the frame pointer and the stack pointer values immediately
     after the function prologue.  The value would be computed from
     information such as the result of `get_frame_size ()' and the
     tables of registers `regs_ever_live' and `call_used_regs'.

     If `ELIMINABLE_REGS' is defined, this macro will be not be used and
     need not be defined.  Otherwise, it must be defined even if
     `FRAME_POINTER_REQUIRED' is defined to always be true; in that
     case, you may set DEPTH-VAR to anything.

`ELIMINABLE_REGS'
     If defined, this macro specifies a table of register pairs used to
     eliminate unneeded registers that point into the stack frame.  If
     it is not defined, the only elimination attempted by the compiler
     is to replace references to the frame pointer with references to
     the stack pointer.

     The definition of this macro is a list of structure
     initializations, each of which specifies an original and
     replacement register.

     On some machines, the position of the argument pointer is not
     known until the compilation is completed.  In such a case, a
     separate hard register must be used for the argument pointer.
     This register can be eliminated by replacing it with either the
     frame pointer or the argument pointer, depending on whether or not
     the frame pointer has been eliminated.

     In this case, you might specify:
          #define ELIMINABLE_REGS  \
          {{ARG_POINTER_REGNUM, STACK_POINTER_REGNUM}, \
           {ARG_POINTER_REGNUM, FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM}, \
           {FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM, STACK_POINTER_REGNUM}}

     Note that the elimination of the argument pointer with the stack
     pointer is specified first since that is the preferred elimination.

`CAN_ELIMINATE (FROM-REG, TO-REG)'
     A C expression that returns nonzero if the compiler is allowed to
     try to replace register number FROM-REG with register number
     TO-REG.  This macro need only be defined if `ELIMINABLE_REGS' is
     defined, and will usually be the constant 1, since most of the
     cases preventing register elimination are things that the compiler
     already knows about.

`INITIAL_ELIMINATION_OFFSET (FROM-REG, TO-REG, OFFSET-VAR)'
     This macro is similar to `INITIAL_FRAME_POINTER_OFFSET'.  It
     specifies the initial difference between the specified pair of
     registers.  This macro must be defined if `ELIMINABLE_REGS' is
     defined.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Stack Arguments,  Next: Register Arguments,  Prev: Elimination,  Up: Stack and Calling

Passing Function Arguments on the Stack
---------------------------------------

The macros in this section control how arguments are passed on the
stack.  See the following section for other macros that control passing
certain arguments in registers.

`PROMOTE_PROTOTYPES'
     A C expression whose value is nonzero if an argument declared in a
     prototype as an integral type smaller than `int' should actually
     be passed as an `int'.  In addition to avoiding errors in certain
     cases of mismatch, it also makes for better code on certain
     machines.  If the macro is not defined in target header files, it
     defaults to 0.

`PUSH_ARGS'
     A C expression.  If nonzero, push insns will be used to pass
     outgoing arguments.  If the target machine does not have a push
     instruction, set it to zero.  That directs GCC to use an alternate
     strategy: to allocate the entire argument block and then store the
     arguments into it.  When `PUSH_ARGS' is nonzero, `PUSH_ROUNDING'
     must be defined too.

`PUSH_ROUNDING (NPUSHED)'
     A C expression that is the number of bytes actually pushed onto the
     stack when an instruction attempts to push NPUSHED bytes.

     On some machines, the definition

          #define PUSH_ROUNDING(BYTES) (BYTES)

     will suffice.  But on other machines, instructions that appear to
     push one byte actually push two bytes in an attempt to maintain
     alignment.  Then the definition should be

          #define PUSH_ROUNDING(BYTES) (((BYTES) + 1) & ~1)

`ACCUMULATE_OUTGOING_ARGS'
     A C expression.  If nonzero, the maximum amount of space required
     for outgoing arguments will be computed and placed into the
     variable `current_function_outgoing_args_size'.  No space will be
     pushed onto the stack for each call; instead, the function
     prologue should increase the stack frame size by this amount.

     Setting both `PUSH_ARGS' and `ACCUMULATE_OUTGOING_ARGS' is not
     proper.

`REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE (FNDECL)'
     Define this macro if functions should assume that stack space has
     been allocated for arguments even when their values are passed in
     registers.

     The value of this macro is the size, in bytes, of the area
     reserved for arguments passed in registers for the function
     represented by FNDECL, which can be zero if GCC is calling a
     library function.

     This space can be allocated by the caller, or be a part of the
     machine-dependent stack frame: `OUTGOING_REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE' says
     which.

`MAYBE_REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE'
`FINAL_REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE (CONST_SIZE, VAR_SIZE)'
     Define these macros in addition to the one above if functions might
     allocate stack space for arguments even when their values are
     passed in registers.  These should be used when the stack space
     allocated for arguments in registers is not a simple constant
     independent of the function declaration.

     The value of the first macro is the size, in bytes, of the area
     that we should initially assume would be reserved for arguments
     passed in registers.

     The value of the second macro is the actual size, in bytes, of the
     area that will be reserved for arguments passed in registers.
     This takes two arguments: an integer representing the number of
     bytes of fixed sized arguments on the stack, and a tree
     representing the number of bytes of variable sized arguments on
     the stack.

     When these macros are defined, `REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE' will only be
     called for libcall functions, the current function, or for a
     function being called when it is known that such stack space must
     be allocated.  In each case this value can be easily computed.

     When deciding whether a called function needs such stack space,
     and how much space to reserve, GCC uses these two macros instead of
     `REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE'.

`OUTGOING_REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE'
     Define this if it is the responsibility of the caller to allocate
     the area reserved for arguments passed in registers.

     If `ACCUMULATE_OUTGOING_ARGS' is defined, this macro controls
     whether the space for these arguments counts in the value of
     `current_function_outgoing_args_size'.

`STACK_PARMS_IN_REG_PARM_AREA'
     Define this macro if `REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE' is defined, but the
     stack parameters don't skip the area specified by it.

     Normally, when a parameter is not passed in registers, it is
     placed on the stack beyond the `REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE' area.
     Defining this macro suppresses this behavior and causes the
     parameter to be passed on the stack in its natural location.

`RETURN_POPS_ARGS (FUNDECL, FUNTYPE, STACK-SIZE)'
     A C expression that should indicate the number of bytes of its own
     arguments that a function pops on returning, or 0 if the function
     pops no arguments and the caller must therefore pop them all after
     the function returns.

     FUNDECL is a C variable whose value is a tree node that describes
     the function in question.  Normally it is a node of type
     `FUNCTION_DECL' that describes the declaration of the function.
     From this you can obtain the `DECL_ATTRIBUTES' of the function.

     FUNTYPE is a C variable whose value is a tree node that describes
     the function in question.  Normally it is a node of type
     `FUNCTION_TYPE' that describes the data type of the function.
     From this it is possible to obtain the data types of the value and
     arguments (if known).

     When a call to a library function is being considered, FUNDECL
     will contain an identifier node for the library function.  Thus, if
     you need to distinguish among various library functions, you can
     do so by their names.  Note that "library function" in this
     context means a function used to perform arithmetic, whose name is
     known specially in the compiler and was not mentioned in the C
     code being compiled.

     STACK-SIZE is the number of bytes of arguments passed on the
     stack.  If a variable number of bytes is passed, it is zero, and
     argument popping will always be the responsibility of the calling
     function.

     On the VAX, all functions always pop their arguments, so the
     definition of this macro is STACK-SIZE.  On the 68000, using the
     standard calling convention, no functions pop their arguments, so
     the value of the macro is always 0 in this case.  But an
     alternative calling convention is available in which functions
     that take a fixed number of arguments pop them but other functions
     (such as `printf') pop nothing (the caller pops all).  When this
     convention is in use, FUNTYPE is examined to determine whether a
     function takes a fixed number of arguments.

`CALL_POPS_ARGS (CUM)'
     A C expression that should indicate the number of bytes a call
     sequence pops off the stack.  It is added to the value of
     `RETURN_POPS_ARGS' when compiling a function call.

     CUM is the variable in which all arguments to the called function
     have been accumulated.

     On certain architectures, such as the SH5, a call trampoline is
     used that pops certain registers off the stack, depending on the
     arguments that have been passed to the function.  Since this is a
     property of the call site, not of the called function,
     `RETURN_POPS_ARGS' is not appropriate.

Passing Arguments in Registers
------------------------------

This section describes the macros which let you control how various
types of arguments are passed in registers or how they are arranged in
the stack.

`FUNCTION_ARG (CUM, MODE, TYPE, NAMED)'
     A C expression that controls whether a function argument is passed
     in a register, and which register.

     The arguments are CUM, which summarizes all the previous
     arguments; MODE, the machine mode of the argument; TYPE, the data
     type of the argument as a tree node or 0 if that is not known
     (which happens for C support library functions); and NAMED, which
     is 1 for an ordinary argument and 0 for nameless arguments that
     correspond to `...' in the called function's prototype.  TYPE can
     be an incomplete type if a syntax error has previously occurred.

     The value of the expression is usually either a `reg' RTX for the
     hard register in which to pass the argument, or zero to pass the
     argument on the stack.

     For machines like the VAX and 68000, where normally all arguments
     are pushed, zero suffices as a definition.

     The value of the expression can also be a `parallel' RTX.  This is
     used when an argument is passed in multiple locations.  The mode
     of the of the `parallel' should be the mode of the entire
     argument.  The `parallel' holds any number of `expr_list' pairs;
     each one describes where part of the argument is passed.  In each
     `expr_list' the first operand must be a `reg' RTX for the hard
     register in which to pass this part of the argument, and the mode
     of the register RTX indicates how large this part of the argument
     is.  The second operand of the `expr_list' is a `const_int' which
     gives the offset in bytes into the entire argument of where this
     part starts.  As a special exception the first `expr_list' in the
     `parallel' RTX may have a first operand of zero.  This indicates
     that the entire argument is also stored on the stack.

     The last time this macro is called, it is called with `MODE ==
     VOIDmode', and its result is passed to the `call' or `call_value'
     pattern as operands 2 and 3 respectively.

     The usual way to make the ISO library `stdarg.h' work on a machine
     where some arguments are usually passed in registers, is to cause
     nameless arguments to be passed on the stack instead.  This is done
     by making `FUNCTION_ARG' return 0 whenever NAMED is 0.

     You may use the macro `MUST_PASS_IN_STACK (MODE, TYPE)' in the
     definition of this macro to determine if this argument is of a
     type that must be passed in the stack.  If `REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE'
     is not defined and `FUNCTION_ARG' returns nonzero for such an
     argument, the compiler will abort.  If `REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE' is
     defined, the argument will be computed in the stack and then
     loaded into a register.

`MUST_PASS_IN_STACK (MODE, TYPE)'
     Define as a C expression that evaluates to nonzero if we do not
     know how to pass TYPE solely in registers.  The file `expr.h'
     defines a definition that is usually appropriate, refer to
     `expr.h' for additional documentation.

`FUNCTION_INCOMING_ARG (CUM, MODE, TYPE, NAMED)'
     Define this macro if the target machine has "register windows", so
     that the register in which a function sees an arguments is not
     necessarily the same as the one in which the caller passed the
     argument.

     For such machines, `FUNCTION_ARG' computes the register in which
     the caller passes the value, and `FUNCTION_INCOMING_ARG' should be
     defined in a similar fashion to tell the function being called
     where the arguments will arrive.

     If `FUNCTION_INCOMING_ARG' is not defined, `FUNCTION_ARG' serves
     both purposes.

`FUNCTION_ARG_PARTIAL_NREGS (CUM, MODE, TYPE, NAMED)'
     A C expression for the number of words, at the beginning of an
     argument, that must be put in registers.  The value must be zero
     for arguments that are passed entirely in registers or that are
     entirely pushed on the stack.

     On some machines, certain arguments must be passed partially in
     registers and partially in memory.  On these machines, typically
     the first N words of arguments are passed in registers, and the
     rest on the stack.  If a multi-word argument (a `double' or a
     structure) crosses that boundary, its first few words must be
     passed in registers and the rest must be pushed.  This macro tells
     the compiler when this occurs, and how many of the words should go
     in registers.

     `FUNCTION_ARG' for these arguments should return the first
     register to be used by the caller for this argument; likewise
     `FUNCTION_INCOMING_ARG', for the called function.

`FUNCTION_ARG_PASS_BY_REFERENCE (CUM, MODE, TYPE, NAMED)'
     A C expression that indicates when an argument must be passed by
     reference.  If nonzero for an argument, a copy of that argument is
     made in memory and a pointer to the argument is passed instead of
     the argument itself.  The pointer is passed in whatever way is
     appropriate for passing a pointer to that type.

     On machines where `REG_PARM_STACK_SPACE' is not defined, a suitable
     definition of this macro might be
          #define FUNCTION_ARG_PASS_BY_REFERENCE\
          (CUM, MODE, TYPE, NAMED)  \
            MUST_PASS_IN_STACK (MODE, TYPE)

`FUNCTION_ARG_CALLEE_COPIES (CUM, MODE, TYPE, NAMED)'
     If defined, a C expression that indicates when it is the called
     function's responsibility to make a copy of arguments passed by
     invisible reference.  Normally, the caller makes a copy and passes
     the address of the copy to the routine being called.  When
     `FUNCTION_ARG_CALLEE_COPIES' is defined and is nonzero, the caller
     does not make a copy.  Instead, it passes a pointer to the "live"
     value.  The called function must not modify this value.  If it can
     be determined that the value won't be modified, it need not make a
     copy; otherwise a copy must be made.

`FUNCTION_ARG_REG_LITTLE_ENDIAN'
     If defined TRUE on a big-endian system then structure arguments
     passed (and returned) in registers are passed in a little-endian
     manner instead of the big-endian manner.  On the HP-UX IA64 and
     PA64 platforms structures are aligned differently then integral
     values and setting this value to true will allow for the special
     handling of structure arguments and return values.

`CUMULATIVE_ARGS'
     A C type for declaring a variable that is used as the first
     argument of `FUNCTION_ARG' and other related values.  For some
     target machines, the type `int' suffices and can hold the number
     of bytes of argument so far.

     There is no need to record in `CUMULATIVE_ARGS' anything about the
     arguments that have been passed on the stack.  The compiler has
     other variables to keep track of that.  For target machines on
     which all arguments are passed on the stack, there is no need to
     store anything in `CUMULATIVE_ARGS'; however, the data structure
     must exist and should not be empty, so use `int'.

`INIT_CUMULATIVE_ARGS (CUM, FNTYPE, LIBNAME, INDIRECT)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) for initializing the variable CUM
     for the state at the beginning of the argument list.  The variable
     has type `CUMULATIVE_ARGS'.  The value of FNTYPE is the tree node
     for the data type of the function which will receive the args, or 0
     if the args are to a compiler support library function.  The value
     of INDIRECT is nonzero when processing an indirect call, for
     example a call through a function pointer.  The value of INDIRECT
     is zero for a call to an explicitly named function, a library
     function call, or when `INIT_CUMULATIVE_ARGS' is used to find
     arguments for the function being compiled.

     When processing a call to a compiler support library function,
     LIBNAME identifies which one.  It is a `symbol_ref' rtx which
     contains the name of the function, as a string.  LIBNAME is 0 when
     an ordinary C function call is being processed.  Thus, each time
     this macro is called, either LIBNAME or FNTYPE is nonzero, but
     never both of them at once.

`INIT_CUMULATIVE_LIBCALL_ARGS (CUM, MODE, LIBNAME)'
     Like `INIT_CUMULATIVE_ARGS' but only used for outgoing libcalls,
     it gets a `MODE' argument instead of FNTYPE, that would be `NULL'.
     INDIRECT would always be zero, too.  If this macro is not
     defined, `INIT_CUMULATIVE_ARGS (cum, NULL_RTX, libname, 0)' is
     used instead.

`INIT_CUMULATIVE_INCOMING_ARGS (CUM, FNTYPE, LIBNAME)'
     Like `INIT_CUMULATIVE_ARGS' but overrides it for the purposes of
     finding the arguments for the function being compiled.  If this
     macro is undefined, `INIT_CUMULATIVE_ARGS' is used instead.

     The value passed for LIBNAME is always 0, since library routines
     with special calling conventions are never compiled with GCC.  The
     argument LIBNAME exists for symmetry with `INIT_CUMULATIVE_ARGS'.

`FUNCTION_ARG_ADVANCE (CUM, MODE, TYPE, NAMED)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to update the summarizer variable
     CUM to advance past an argument in the argument list.  The values
     MODE, TYPE and NAMED describe that argument.  Once this is done,
     the variable CUM is suitable for analyzing the _following_
     argument with `FUNCTION_ARG', etc.

     This macro need not do anything if the argument in question was
     passed on the stack.  The compiler knows how to track the amount
     of stack space used for arguments without any special help.

`FUNCTION_ARG_PADDING (MODE, TYPE)'
     If defined, a C expression which determines whether, and in which
     direction, to pad out an argument with extra space.  The value
     should be of type `enum direction': either `upward' to pad above
     the argument, `downward' to pad below, or `none' to inhibit
     padding.

     The _amount_ of padding is always just enough to reach the next
     multiple of `FUNCTION_ARG_BOUNDARY'; this macro does not control
     it.

     This macro has a default definition which is right for most
     systems.  For little-endian machines, the default is to pad
     upward.  For big-endian machines, the default is to pad downward
     for an argument of constant size shorter than an `int', and upward
     otherwise.

`PAD_VARARGS_DOWN'
     If defined, a C expression which determines whether the default
     implementation of va_arg will attempt to pad down before reading
     the next argument, if that argument is smaller than its aligned
     space as controlled by `PARM_BOUNDARY'.  If this macro is not
     defined, all such arguments are padded down if `BYTES_BIG_ENDIAN'
     is true.

`FUNCTION_ARG_BOUNDARY (MODE, TYPE)'
     If defined, a C expression that gives the alignment boundary, in
     bits, of an argument with the specified mode and type.  If it is
     not defined, `PARM_BOUNDARY' is used for all arguments.

`FUNCTION_ARG_REGNO_P (REGNO)'
     A C expression that is nonzero if REGNO is the number of a hard
     register in which function arguments are sometimes passed.  This
     does _not_ include implicit arguments such as the static chain and
     the structure-value address.  On many machines, no registers can be
     used for this purpose since all function arguments are pushed on
     the stack.

`LOAD_ARGS_REVERSED'
     If defined, the order in which arguments are loaded into their
     respective argument registers is reversed so that the last
     argument is loaded first.  This macro only affects arguments
     passed in registers.

How Scalar Function Values Are Returned
---------------------------------------

This section discusses the macros that control returning scalars as
values--values that can fit in registers.

`TRADITIONAL_RETURN_FLOAT'
     Define this macro if `-traditional' should not cause functions
     declared to return `float' to convert the value to `double'.

`FUNCTION_VALUE (VALTYPE, FUNC)'
     A C expression to create an RTX representing the place where a
     function returns a value of data type VALTYPE.  VALTYPE is a tree
     node representing a data type.  Write `TYPE_MODE (VALTYPE)' to get
     the machine mode used to represent that type.  On many machines,
     only the mode is relevant.  (Actually, on most machines, scalar
     values are returned in the same place regardless of mode).

     The value of the expression is usually a `reg' RTX for the hard
     register where the return value is stored.  The value can also be a
     `parallel' RTX, if the return value is in multiple places.  See
     `FUNCTION_ARG' for an explanation of the `parallel' form.

     If `PROMOTE_FUNCTION_RETURN' is defined, you must apply the same
     promotion rules specified in `PROMOTE_MODE' if VALTYPE is a scalar
     type.

     If the precise function being called is known, FUNC is a tree node
     (`FUNCTION_DECL') for it; otherwise, FUNC is a null pointer.  This
     makes it possible to use a different value-returning convention
     for specific functions when all their calls are known.

     `FUNCTION_VALUE' is not used for return vales with aggregate data
     types, because these are returned in another way.  See
     `STRUCT_VALUE_REGNUM' and related macros, below.

`FUNCTION_OUTGOING_VALUE (VALTYPE, FUNC)'
     Define this macro if the target machine has "register windows" so
     that the register in which a function returns its value is not the
     same as the one in which the caller sees the value.

     For such machines, `FUNCTION_VALUE' computes the register in which
     the caller will see the value.  `FUNCTION_OUTGOING_VALUE' should be
     defined in a similar fashion to tell the function where to put the
     value.

     If `FUNCTION_OUTGOING_VALUE' is not defined, `FUNCTION_VALUE'
     serves both purposes.

     `FUNCTION_OUTGOING_VALUE' is not used for return vales with
     aggregate data types, because these are returned in another way.
     See `STRUCT_VALUE_REGNUM' and related macros, below.

`LIBCALL_VALUE (MODE)'
     A C expression to create an RTX representing the place where a
     library function returns a value of mode MODE.  If the precise
     function being called is known, FUNC is a tree node
     (`FUNCTION_DECL') for it; otherwise, FUNC is a null pointer.  This
     makes it possible to use a different value-returning convention
     for specific functions when all their calls are known.

     Note that "library function" in this context means a compiler
     support routine, used to perform arithmetic, whose name is known
     specially by the compiler and was not mentioned in the C code being
     compiled.

     The definition of `LIBRARY_VALUE' need not be concerned aggregate
     data types, because none of the library functions returns such
     types.

`FUNCTION_VALUE_REGNO_P (REGNO)'
     A C expression that is nonzero if REGNO is the number of a hard
     register in which the values of called function may come back.

     A register whose use for returning values is limited to serving as
     the second of a pair (for a value of type `double', say) need not
     be recognized by this macro.  So for most machines, this definition
     suffices:

          #define FUNCTION_VALUE_REGNO_P(N) ((N) == 0)

     If the machine has register windows, so that the caller and the
     called function use different registers for the return value, this
     macro should recognize only the caller's register numbers.

`APPLY_RESULT_SIZE'
     Define this macro if `untyped_call' and `untyped_return' need more
     space than is implied by `FUNCTION_VALUE_REGNO_P' for saving and
     restoring an arbitrary return value.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Aggregate Return,  Next: Caller Saves,  Prev: Scalar Return,  Up: Stack and Calling

How Large Values Are Returned
-----------------------------

When a function value's mode is `BLKmode' (and in some other cases),
the value is not returned according to `FUNCTION_VALUE' (*note Scalar
Return::).  Instead, the caller passes the address of a block of memory
in which the value should be stored.  This address is called the
"structure value address".

   This section describes how to control returning structure values in
memory.

`RETURN_IN_MEMORY (TYPE)'
     A C expression which can inhibit the returning of certain function
     values in registers, based on the type of value.  A nonzero value
     says to return the function value in memory, just as large
     structures are always returned.  Here TYPE will be a C expression
     of type `tree', representing the data type of the value.

     Note that values of mode `BLKmode' must be explicitly handled by
     this macro.  Also, the option `-fpcc-struct-return' takes effect
     regardless of this macro.  On most systems, it is possible to
     leave the macro undefined; this causes a default definition to be
     used, whose value is the constant 1 for `BLKmode' values, and 0
     otherwise.

     Do not use this macro to indicate that structures and unions
     should always be returned in memory.  You should instead use
     `DEFAULT_PCC_STRUCT_RETURN' to indicate this.

`DEFAULT_PCC_STRUCT_RETURN'
     Define this macro to be 1 if all structure and union return values
     must be in memory.  Since this results in slower code, this should
     be defined only if needed for compatibility with other compilers
     or with an ABI.  If you define this macro to be 0, then the
     conventions used for structure and union return values are decided
     by the `RETURN_IN_MEMORY' macro.

     If not defined, this defaults to the value 1.

`STRUCT_VALUE_REGNUM'
     If the structure value address is passed in a register, then
     `STRUCT_VALUE_REGNUM' should be the number of that register.

`STRUCT_VALUE'
     If the structure value address is not passed in a register, define
     `STRUCT_VALUE' as an expression returning an RTX for the place
     where the address is passed.  If it returns 0, the address is
     passed as an "invisible" first argument.

`STRUCT_VALUE_INCOMING_REGNUM'
     On some architectures the place where the structure value address
     is found by the called function is not the same place that the
     caller put it.  This can be due to register windows, or it could
     be because the function prologue moves it to a different place.

     If the incoming location of the structure value address is in a
     register, define this macro as the register number.

`STRUCT_VALUE_INCOMING'
     If the incoming location is not a register, then you should define
     `STRUCT_VALUE_INCOMING' as an expression for an RTX for where the
     called function should find the value.  If it should find the
     value on the stack, define this to create a `mem' which refers to
     the frame pointer.  A definition of 0 means that the address is
     passed as an "invisible" first argument.

`PCC_STATIC_STRUCT_RETURN'
     Define this macro if the usual system convention on the target
     machine for returning structures and unions is for the called
     function to return the address of a static variable containing the
     value.

     Do not define this if the usual system convention is for the
     caller to pass an address to the subroutine.

     This macro has effect in `-fpcc-struct-return' mode, but it does
     nothing when you use `-freg-struct-return' mode.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Caller Saves,  Next: Function Entry,  Prev: Aggregate Return,  Up: Stack and Calling

Caller-Saves Register Allocation
--------------------------------

If you enable it, GCC can save registers around function calls.  This
makes it possible to use call-clobbered registers to hold variables that
must live across calls.

`DEFAULT_CALLER_SAVES'
     Define this macro if function calls on the target machine do not
     preserve any registers; in other words, if `CALL_USED_REGISTERS'
     has 1 for all registers.  When defined, this macro enables
     `-fcaller-saves' by default for all optimization levels.  It has
     no effect for optimization levels 2 and higher, where
     `-fcaller-saves' is the default.

`CALLER_SAVE_PROFITABLE (REFS, CALLS)'
     A C expression to determine whether it is worthwhile to consider
     placing a pseudo-register in a call-clobbered hard register and
     saving and restoring it around each function call.  The expression
     should be 1 when this is worth doing, and 0 otherwise.

     If you don't define this macro, a default is used which is good on
     most machines: `4 * CALLS < REFS'.

`HARD_REGNO_CALLER_SAVE_MODE (REGNO, NREGS)'
     A C expression specifying which mode is required for saving NREGS
     of a pseudo-register in call-clobbered hard register REGNO.  If
     REGNO is unsuitable for caller save, `VOIDmode' should be
     returned.  For most machines this macro need not be defined since
     GCC will select the smallest suitable mode.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Function Entry,  Next: Profiling,  Prev: Caller Saves,  Up: Stack and Calling

Function Entry and Exit
-----------------------

This section describes the macros that output function entry
("prologue") and exit ("epilogue") code.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_PROLOGUE (FILE *FILE,
          HOST_WIDE_INT SIZE)
     If defined, a function that outputs the assembler code for entry
     to a function.  The prologue is responsible for setting up the
     stack frame, initializing the frame pointer register, saving
     registers that must be saved, and allocating SIZE additional bytes
     of storage for the local variables.  SIZE is an integer.  FILE is
     a stdio stream to which the assembler code should be output.

     The label for the beginning of the function need not be output by
     this macro.  That has already been done when the macro is run.

     To determine which registers to save, the macro can refer to the
     array `regs_ever_live': element R is nonzero if hard register R is
     used anywhere within the function.  This implies the function
     prologue should save register R, provided it is not one of the
     call-used registers.  (`TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_EPILOGUE' must
     likewise use `regs_ever_live'.)

     On machines that have "register windows", the function entry code
     does not save on the stack the registers that are in the windows,
     even if they are supposed to be preserved by function calls;
     instead it takes appropriate steps to "push" the register stack,
     if any non-call-used registers are used in the function.

     On machines where functions may or may not have frame-pointers, the
     function entry code must vary accordingly; it must set up the frame
     pointer if one is wanted, and not otherwise.  To determine whether
     a frame pointer is in wanted, the macro can refer to the variable
     `frame_pointer_needed'.  The variable's value will be 1 at run
     time in a function that needs a frame pointer.  *Note
     Elimination::.

     The function entry code is responsible for allocating any stack
     space required for the function.  This stack space consists of the
     regions listed below.  In most cases, these regions are allocated
     in the order listed, with the last listed region closest to the
     top of the stack (the lowest address if `STACK_GROWS_DOWNWARD' is
     defined, and the highest address if it is not defined).  You can
     use a different order for a machine if doing so is more convenient
     or required for compatibility reasons.  Except in cases where
     required by standard or by a debugger, there is no reason why the
     stack layout used by GCC need agree with that used by other
     compilers for a machine.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_END_PROLOGUE (FILE *FILE)
     If defined, a function that outputs assembler code at the end of a
     prologue.  This should be used when the function prologue is being
     emitted as RTL, and you have some extra assembler that needs to be
     emitted.  *Note prologue instruction pattern::.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_BEGIN_EPILOGUE (FILE *FILE)
     If defined, a function that outputs assembler code at the start of
     an epilogue.  This should be used when the function epilogue is
     being emitted as RTL, and you have some extra assembler that needs
     to be emitted.  *Note epilogue instruction pattern::.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_EPILOGUE (FILE *FILE,
          HOST_WIDE_INT SIZE)
     If defined, a function that outputs the assembler code for exit
     from a function.  The epilogue is responsible for restoring the
     saved registers and stack pointer to their values when the
     function was called, and returning control to the caller.  This
     macro takes the same arguments as the macro
     `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_PROLOGUE', and the registers to restore are
     determined from `regs_ever_live' and `CALL_USED_REGISTERS' in the
     same way.

     On some machines, there is a single instruction that does all the
     work of returning from the function.  On these machines, give that
     instruction the name `return' and do not define the macro
     `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_EPILOGUE' at all.

     Do not define a pattern named `return' if you want the
     `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_EPILOGUE' to be used.  If you want the target
     switches to control whether return instructions or epilogues are
     used, define a `return' pattern with a validity condition that
     tests the target switches appropriately.  If the `return'
     pattern's validity condition is false, epilogues will be used.

     On machines where functions may or may not have frame-pointers, the
     function exit code must vary accordingly.  Sometimes the code for
     these two cases is completely different.  To determine whether a
     frame pointer is wanted, the macro can refer to the variable
     `frame_pointer_needed'.  The variable's value will be 1 when
     compiling a function that needs a frame pointer.

     Normally, `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_PROLOGUE' and
     `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_EPILOGUE' must treat leaf functions specially.
     The C variable `current_function_is_leaf' is nonzero for such a
     function.  *Note Leaf Functions::.

     On some machines, some functions pop their arguments on exit while
     others leave that for the caller to do.  For example, the 68020
     when given `-mrtd' pops arguments in functions that take a fixed
     number of arguments.

     Your definition of the macro `RETURN_POPS_ARGS' decides which
     functions pop their own arguments.  `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_EPILOGUE'
     needs to know what was decided.  The variable that is called
     `current_function_pops_args' is the number of bytes of its
     arguments that a function should pop.  *Note Scalar Return::.

        * A region of `current_function_pretend_args_size' bytes of
          uninitialized space just underneath the first argument
          arriving on the stack.  (This may not be at the very start of
          the allocated stack region if the calling sequence has pushed
          anything else since pushing the stack arguments.  But
          usually, on such machines, nothing else has been pushed yet,
          because the function prologue itself does all the pushing.)
          This region is used on machines where an argument may be
          passed partly in registers and partly in memory, and, in some
          cases to support the features in `<varargs.h>' and
          `<stdarg.h>'.

        * An area of memory used to save certain registers used by the
          function.  The size of this area, which may also include
          space for such things as the return address and pointers to
          previous stack frames, is machine-specific and usually
          depends on which registers have been used in the function.
          Machines with register windows often do not require a save
          area.

        * A region of at least SIZE bytes, possibly rounded up to an
          allocation boundary, to contain the local variables of the
          function.  On some machines, this region and the save area
          may occur in the opposite order, with the save area closer to
          the top of the stack.

        * Optionally, when `ACCUMULATE_OUTGOING_ARGS' is defined, a
          region of `current_function_outgoing_args_size' bytes to be
          used for outgoing argument lists of the function.  *Note
          Stack Arguments::.

     Normally, it is necessary for the macros
     `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_PROLOGUE' and `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_EPILOGUE'
     to treat leaf functions specially.  The C variable
     `current_function_is_leaf' is nonzero for such a function.

`EXIT_IGNORE_STACK'
     Define this macro as a C expression that is nonzero if the return
     instruction or the function epilogue ignores the value of the stack
     pointer; in other words, if it is safe to delete an instruction to
     adjust the stack pointer before a return from the function.

     Note that this macro's value is relevant only for functions for
     which frame pointers are maintained.  It is never safe to delete a
     final stack adjustment in a function that has no frame pointer,
     and the compiler knows this regardless of `EXIT_IGNORE_STACK'.

`EPILOGUE_USES (REGNO)'
     Define this macro as a C expression that is nonzero for registers
     that are used by the epilogue or the `return' pattern.  The stack
     and frame pointer registers are already be assumed to be used as
     needed.

`EH_USES (REGNO)'
     Define this macro as a C expression that is nonzero for registers
     that are used by the exception handling mechanism, and so should
     be considered live on entry to an exception edge.

`DELAY_SLOTS_FOR_EPILOGUE'
     Define this macro if the function epilogue contains delay slots to
     which instructions from the rest of the function can be "moved".
     The definition should be a C expression whose value is an integer
     representing the number of delay slots there.

`ELIGIBLE_FOR_EPILOGUE_DELAY (INSN, N)'
     A C expression that returns 1 if INSN can be placed in delay slot
     number N of the epilogue.

     The argument N is an integer which identifies the delay slot now
     being considered (since different slots may have different rules of
     eligibility).  It is never negative and is always less than the
     number of epilogue delay slots (what `DELAY_SLOTS_FOR_EPILOGUE'
     returns).  If you reject a particular insn for a given delay slot,
     in principle, it may be reconsidered for a subsequent delay slot.
     Also, other insns may (at least in principle) be considered for
     the so far unfilled delay slot.

     The insns accepted to fill the epilogue delay slots are put in an
     RTL list made with `insn_list' objects, stored in the variable
     `current_function_epilogue_delay_list'.  The insn for the first
     delay slot comes first in the list.  Your definition of the macro
     `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_EPILOGUE' should fill the delay slots by
     outputting the insns in this list, usually by calling
     `final_scan_insn'.

     You need not define this macro if you did not define
     `DELAY_SLOTS_FOR_EPILOGUE'.

`ASM_OUTPUT_MI_THUNK (FILE, THUNK_FNDECL, DELTA, FUNCTION)'
     A C compound statement that outputs the assembler code for a thunk
     function, used to implement C++ virtual function calls with
     multiple inheritance.  The thunk acts as a wrapper around a
     virtual function, adjusting the implicit object parameter before
     handing control off to the real function.

     First, emit code to add the integer DELTA to the location that
     contains the incoming first argument.  Assume that this argument
     contains a pointer, and is the one used to pass the `this' pointer
     in C++.  This is the incoming argument _before_ the function
     prologue, e.g. `%o0' on a sparc.  The addition must preserve the
     values of all other incoming arguments.

     After the addition, emit code to jump to FUNCTION, which is a
     `FUNCTION_DECL'.  This is a direct pure jump, not a call, and does
     not touch the return address.  Hence returning from FUNCTION will
     return to whoever called the current `thunk'.

     The effect must be as if FUNCTION had been called directly with
     the adjusted first argument.  This macro is responsible for
     emitting all of the code for a thunk function;
     `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_PROLOGUE' and `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_EPILOGUE'
     are not invoked.

     The THUNK_FNDECL is redundant.  (DELTA and FUNCTION have already
     been extracted from it.)  It might possibly be useful on some
     targets, but probably not.

     If you do not define this macro, the target-independent code in
     the C++ front end will generate a less efficient heavyweight thunk
     that calls FUNCTION instead of jumping to it.  The generic
     approach does not support varargs.

Generating Code for Profiling
-----------------------------

These macros will help you generate code for profiling.

`FUNCTION_PROFILER (FILE, LABELNO)'
     A C statement or compound statement to output to FILE some
     assembler code to call the profiling subroutine `mcount'.

     The details of how `mcount' expects to be called are determined by
     your operating system environment, not by GCC.  To figure them out,
     compile a small program for profiling using the system's installed
     C compiler and look at the assembler code that results.

     Older implementations of `mcount' expect the address of a counter
     variable to be loaded into some register.  The name of this
     variable is `LP' followed by the number LABELNO, so you would
     generate the name using `LP%d' in a `fprintf'.

`PROFILE_HOOK'
     A C statement or compound statement to output to FILE some assembly
     code to call the profiling subroutine `mcount' even the target does
     not support profiling.

`NO_PROFILE_COUNTERS'
     Define this macro if the `mcount' subroutine on your system does
     not need a counter variable allocated for each function.  This is
     true for almost all modern implementations.  If you define this
     macro, you must not use the LABELNO argument to
     `FUNCTION_PROFILER'.

`PROFILE_BEFORE_PROLOGUE'
     Define this macro if the code for function profiling should come
     before the function prologue.  Normally, the profiling code comes
     after.

`TARGET_ALLOWS_PROFILING_WITHOUT_FRAME_POINTER'
     On some targets, it is impossible to use profiling when the frame
     pointer has been omitted.  For example, on x86 GNU/Linux systems,
     the `mcount' routine provided by the GNU C Library finds the
     address of the routine that called the routine that called `mcount'
     by looking in the immediate caller's stack frame.  If the immediate
     caller has no frame pointer, this lookup will fail.

     By default, GCC assumes that the target does allow profiling when
     the frame pointer is omitted.  This macro should be defined to a C
     expression that evaluates to `false' if the target does not allow
     profiling when the frame pointer is omitted.



File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Tail Calls,  Prev: Profiling,  Up: Stack and Calling

Permitting tail calls
---------------------

`FUNCTION_OK_FOR_SIBCALL (DECL)'
     A C expression that evaluates to true if it is ok to perform a
     sibling call to DECL from the current function.

     It is not uncommon for limitations of calling conventions to
     prevent tail calls to functions outside the current unit of
     translation, or during PIC compilation.  Use this macro to enforce
     these restrictions, as the `sibcall' md pattern can not fail, or
     fall over to a "normal" call.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Varargs,  Next: Trampolines,  Prev: Stack and Calling,  Up: Target Macros

Implementing the Varargs Macros
===============================

GCC comes with an implementation of `<varargs.h>' and `<stdarg.h>' that
work without change on machines that pass arguments on the stack.
Other machines require their own implementations of varargs, and the
two machine independent header files must have conditionals to include
it.

   ISO `<stdarg.h>' differs from traditional `<varargs.h>' mainly in
the calling convention for `va_start'.  The traditional implementation
takes just one argument, which is the variable in which to store the
argument pointer.  The ISO implementation of `va_start' takes an
additional second argument.  The user is supposed to write the last
named argument of the function here.

   However, `va_start' should not use this argument.  The way to find
the end of the named arguments is with the built-in functions described
below.

`__builtin_saveregs ()'
     Use this built-in function to save the argument registers in
     memory so that the varargs mechanism can access them.  Both ISO
     and traditional versions of `va_start' must use
     `__builtin_saveregs', unless you use `SETUP_INCOMING_VARARGS' (see
     below) instead.

     On some machines, `__builtin_saveregs' is open-coded under the
     control of the macro `EXPAND_BUILTIN_SAVEREGS'.  On other machines,
     it calls a routine written in assembler language, found in
     `libgcc2.c'.

     Code generated for the call to `__builtin_saveregs' appears at the
     beginning of the function, as opposed to where the call to
     `__builtin_saveregs' is written, regardless of what the code is.
     This is because the registers must be saved before the function
     starts to use them for its own purposes.

`__builtin_args_info (CATEGORY)'
     Use this built-in function to find the first anonymous arguments in
     registers.

     In general, a machine may have several categories of registers
     used for arguments, each for a particular category of data types.
     (For example, on some machines, floating-point registers are used
     for floating-point arguments while other arguments are passed in
     the general registers.)  To make non-varargs functions use the
     proper calling convention, you have defined the `CUMULATIVE_ARGS'
     data type to record how many registers in each category have been
     used so far

     `__builtin_args_info' accesses the same data structure of type
     `CUMULATIVE_ARGS' after the ordinary argument layout is finished
     with it, with CATEGORY specifying which word to access.  Thus, the
     value indicates the first unused register in a given category.

     Normally, you would use `__builtin_args_info' in the implementation
     of `va_start', accessing each category just once and storing the
     value in the `va_list' object.  This is because `va_list' will
     have to update the values, and there is no way to alter the values
     accessed by `__builtin_args_info'.

`__builtin_next_arg (LASTARG)'
     This is the equivalent of `__builtin_args_info', for stack
     arguments.  It returns the address of the first anonymous stack
     argument, as type `void *'.  If `ARGS_GROW_DOWNWARD', it returns
     the address of the location above the first anonymous stack
     argument.  Use it in `va_start' to initialize the pointer for
     fetching arguments from the stack.  Also use it in `va_start' to
     verify that the second parameter LASTARG is the last named argument
     of the current function.

`__builtin_classify_type (OBJECT)'
     Since each machine has its own conventions for which data types are
     passed in which kind of register, your implementation of `va_arg'
     has to embody these conventions.  The easiest way to categorize the
     specified data type is to use `__builtin_classify_type' together
     with `sizeof' and `__alignof__'.

     `__builtin_classify_type' ignores the value of OBJECT, considering
     only its data type.  It returns an integer describing what kind of
     type that is--integer, floating, pointer, structure, and so on.

     The file `typeclass.h' defines an enumeration that you can use to
     interpret the values of `__builtin_classify_type'.

   These machine description macros help implement varargs:

`EXPAND_BUILTIN_SAVEREGS ()'
     If defined, is a C expression that produces the machine-specific
     code for a call to `__builtin_saveregs'.  This code will be moved
     to the very beginning of the function, before any parameter access
     are made.  The return value of this function should be an RTX that
     contains the value to use as the return of `__builtin_saveregs'.

`SETUP_INCOMING_VARARGS (ARGS_SO_FAR, MODE, TYPE, PRETEND_ARGS_SIZE, SECOND_TIME)'
     This macro offers an alternative to using `__builtin_saveregs' and
     defining the macro `EXPAND_BUILTIN_SAVEREGS'.  Use it to store the
     anonymous register arguments into the stack so that all the
     arguments appear to have been passed consecutively on the stack.
     Once this is done, you can use the standard implementation of
     varargs that works for machines that pass all their arguments on
     the stack.

     The argument ARGS_SO_FAR is the `CUMULATIVE_ARGS' data structure,
     containing the values that are obtained after processing the named
     arguments.  The arguments MODE and TYPE describe the last named
     argument--its machine mode and its data type as a tree node.

     The macro implementation should do two things: first, push onto the
     stack all the argument registers _not_ used for the named
     arguments, and second, store the size of the data thus pushed into
     the `int'-valued variable whose name is supplied as the argument
     PRETEND_ARGS_SIZE.  The value that you store here will serve as
     additional offset for setting up the stack frame.

     Because you must generate code to push the anonymous arguments at
     compile time without knowing their data types,
     `SETUP_INCOMING_VARARGS' is only useful on machines that have just
     a single category of argument register and use it uniformly for
     all data types.

     If the argument SECOND_TIME is nonzero, it means that the
     arguments of the function are being analyzed for the second time.
     This happens for an inline function, which is not actually
     compiled until the end of the source file.  The macro
     `SETUP_INCOMING_VARARGS' should not generate any instructions in
     this case.

`STRICT_ARGUMENT_NAMING'
     Define this macro to be a nonzero value if the location where a
     function argument is passed depends on whether or not it is a
     named argument.

     This macro controls how the NAMED argument to `FUNCTION_ARG' is
     set for varargs and stdarg functions.  If this macro returns a
     nonzero value, the NAMED argument is always true for named
     arguments, and false for unnamed arguments.  If it returns a value
     of zero, but `SETUP_INCOMING_VARARGS' is defined, then all
     arguments are treated as named.  Otherwise, all named arguments
     except the last are treated as named.

     You need not define this macro if it always returns zero.

`PRETEND_OUTGOING_VARARGS_NAMED'
     If you need to conditionally change ABIs so that one works with
     `SETUP_INCOMING_VARARGS', but the other works like neither
     `SETUP_INCOMING_VARARGS' nor `STRICT_ARGUMENT_NAMING' was defined,
     then define this macro to return nonzero if
     `SETUP_INCOMING_VARARGS' is used, zero otherwise.  Otherwise, you
     should not define this macro.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Trampolines,  Next: Library Calls,  Prev: Varargs,  Up: Target Macros

Trampolines for Nested Functions
================================

A "trampoline" is a small piece of code that is created at run time
when the address of a nested function is taken.  It normally resides on
the stack, in the stack frame of the containing function.  These macros
tell GCC how to generate code to allocate and initialize a trampoline.

   The instructions in the trampoline must do two things: load a
constant address into the static chain register, and jump to the real
address of the nested function.  On CISC machines such as the m68k,
this requires two instructions, a move immediate and a jump.  Then the
two addresses exist in the trampoline as word-long immediate operands.
On RISC machines, it is often necessary to load each address into a
register in two parts.  Then pieces of each address form separate
immediate operands.

   The code generated to initialize the trampoline must store the
variable parts--the static chain value and the function address--into
the immediate operands of the instructions.  On a CISC machine, this is
simply a matter of copying each address to a memory reference at the
proper offset from the start of the trampoline.  On a RISC machine, it
may be necessary to take out pieces of the address and store them
separately.

`TRAMPOLINE_TEMPLATE (FILE)'
     A C statement to output, on the stream FILE, assembler code for a
     block of data that contains the constant parts of a trampoline.
     This code should not include a label--the label is taken care of
     automatically.

     If you do not define this macro, it means no template is needed
     for the target.  Do not define this macro on systems where the
     block move code to copy the trampoline into place would be larger
     than the code to generate it on the spot.

`TRAMPOLINE_SECTION'
     The name of a subroutine to switch to the section in which the
     trampoline template is to be placed (*note Sections::).  The
     default is a value of `readonly_data_section', which places the
     trampoline in the section containing read-only data.

`TRAMPOLINE_SIZE'
     A C expression for the size in bytes of the trampoline, as an
     integer.

`TRAMPOLINE_ALIGNMENT'
     Alignment required for trampolines, in bits.

     If you don't define this macro, the value of `BIGGEST_ALIGNMENT'
     is used for aligning trampolines.

`INITIALIZE_TRAMPOLINE (ADDR, FNADDR, STATIC_CHAIN)'
     A C statement to initialize the variable parts of a trampoline.
     ADDR is an RTX for the address of the trampoline; FNADDR is an RTX
     for the address of the nested function; STATIC_CHAIN is an RTX for
     the static chain value that should be passed to the function when
     it is called.

`TRAMPOLINE_ADJUST_ADDRESS (ADDR)'
     A C statement that should perform any machine-specific adjustment
     in the address of the trampoline.  Its argument contains the
     address that was passed to `INITIALIZE_TRAMPOLINE'.  In case the
     address to be used for a function call should be different from
     the address in which the template was stored, the different
     address should be assigned to ADDR.  If this macro is not defined,
     ADDR will be used for function calls.

`ALLOCATE_TRAMPOLINE (FP)'
     A C expression to allocate run-time space for a trampoline.  The
     expression value should be an RTX representing a memory reference
     to the space for the trampoline.

     If this macro is not defined, by default the trampoline is
     allocated as a stack slot.  This default is right for most
     machines.  The exceptions are machines where it is impossible to
     execute instructions in the stack area.  On such machines, you may
     have to implement a separate stack, using this macro in
     conjunction with `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_PROLOGUE' and
     `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_EPILOGUE'.

     FP points to a data structure, a `struct function', which
     describes the compilation status of the immediate containing
     function of the function which the trampoline is for.  Normally
     (when `ALLOCATE_TRAMPOLINE' is not defined), the stack slot for the
     trampoline is in the stack frame of this containing function.
     Other allocation strategies probably must do something analogous
     with this information.

   Implementing trampolines is difficult on many machines because they
have separate instruction and data caches.  Writing into a stack
location fails to clear the memory in the instruction cache, so when
the program jumps to that location, it executes the old contents.

   Here are two possible solutions.  One is to clear the relevant parts
of the instruction cache whenever a trampoline is set up.  The other is
to make all trampolines identical, by having them jump to a standard
subroutine.  The former technique makes trampoline execution faster; the
latter makes initialization faster.

   To clear the instruction cache when a trampoline is initialized,
define the following macros which describe the shape of the cache.

`INSN_CACHE_SIZE'
     The total size in bytes of the cache.

`INSN_CACHE_LINE_WIDTH'
     The length in bytes of each cache line.  The cache is divided into
     cache lines which are disjoint slots, each holding a contiguous
     chunk of data fetched from memory.  Each time data is brought into
     the cache, an entire line is read at once.  The data loaded into a
     cache line is always aligned on a boundary equal to the line size.

`INSN_CACHE_DEPTH'
     The number of alternative cache lines that can hold any particular
     memory location.

   Alternatively, if the machine has system calls or instructions to
clear the instruction cache directly, you can define the following
macro.

`CLEAR_INSN_CACHE (BEG, END)'
     If defined, expands to a C expression clearing the _instruction
     cache_ in the specified interval.  If it is not defined, and the
     macro `INSN_CACHE_SIZE' is defined, some generic code is generated
     to clear the cache.  The definition of this macro would typically
     be a series of `asm' statements.  Both BEG and END are both pointer
     expressions.

   To use a standard subroutine, define the following macro.  In
addition, you must make sure that the instructions in a trampoline fill
an entire cache line with identical instructions, or else ensure that
the beginning of the trampoline code is always aligned at the same
point in its cache line.  Look in `m68k.h' as a guide.

`TRANSFER_FROM_TRAMPOLINE'
     Define this macro if trampolines need a special subroutine to do
     their work.  The macro should expand to a series of `asm'
     statements which will be compiled with GCC.  They go in a library
     function named `__transfer_from_trampoline'.

     If you need to avoid executing the ordinary prologue code of a
     compiled C function when you jump to the subroutine, you can do so
     by placing a special label of your own in the assembler code.  Use
     one `asm' statement to generate an assembler label, and another to
     make the label global.  Then trampolines can use that label to
     jump directly to your special assembler code.

Implicit Calls to Library Routines
==================================

Here is an explanation of implicit calls to library routines.

`MULSI3_LIBCALL'
     A C string constant giving the name of the function to call for
     multiplication of one signed full-word by another.  If you do not
     define this macro, the default name is used, which is `__mulsi3',
     a function defined in `libgcc.a'.

`DIVSI3_LIBCALL'
     A C string constant giving the name of the function to call for
     division of one signed full-word by another.  If you do not define
     this macro, the default name is used, which is `__divsi3', a
     function defined in `libgcc.a'.

`UDIVSI3_LIBCALL'
     A C string constant giving the name of the function to call for
     division of one unsigned full-word by another.  If you do not
     define this macro, the default name is used, which is `__udivsi3',
     a function defined in `libgcc.a'.

`MODSI3_LIBCALL'
     A C string constant giving the name of the function to call for the
     remainder in division of one signed full-word by another.  If you
     do not define this macro, the default name is used, which is
     `__modsi3', a function defined in `libgcc.a'.

`UMODSI3_LIBCALL'
     A C string constant giving the name of the function to call for the
     remainder in division of one unsigned full-word by another.  If
     you do not define this macro, the default name is used, which is
     `__umodsi3', a function defined in `libgcc.a'.

`MULDI3_LIBCALL'
     A C string constant giving the name of the function to call for
     multiplication of one signed double-word by another.  If you do not
     define this macro, the default name is used, which is `__muldi3',
     a function defined in `libgcc.a'.

`DIVDI3_LIBCALL'
     A C string constant giving the name of the function to call for
     division of one signed double-word by another.  If you do not
     define this macro, the default name is used, which is `__divdi3', a
     function defined in `libgcc.a'.

`UDIVDI3_LIBCALL'
     A C string constant giving the name of the function to call for
     division of one unsigned full-word by another.  If you do not
     define this macro, the default name is used, which is `__udivdi3',
     a function defined in `libgcc.a'.

`MODDI3_LIBCALL'
     A C string constant giving the name of the function to call for the
     remainder in division of one signed double-word by another.  If
     you do not define this macro, the default name is used, which is
     `__moddi3', a function defined in `libgcc.a'.

`UMODDI3_LIBCALL'
     A C string constant giving the name of the function to call for the
     remainder in division of one unsigned full-word by another.  If
     you do not define this macro, the default name is used, which is
     `__umoddi3', a function defined in `libgcc.a'.

`INIT_TARGET_OPTABS'
     Define this macro as a C statement that declares additional library
     routines renames existing ones.  `init_optabs' calls this macro
     after initializing all the normal library routines.

`FLOAT_LIB_COMPARE_RETURNS_BOOL'
     Define this macro as a C statement that returns nonzero if a call
     to the floating point comparison library function will return a
     boolean value that indicates the result of the comparison.  It
     should return zero if one of gcc's own libgcc functions is called.

     Most ports don't need to define this macro.

`TARGET_EDOM'
     The value of `EDOM' on the target machine, as a C integer constant
     expression.  If you don't define this macro, GCC does not attempt
     to deposit the value of `EDOM' into `errno' directly.  Look in
     `/usr/include/errno.h' to find the value of `EDOM' on your system.

     If you do not define `TARGET_EDOM', then compiled code reports
     domain errors by calling the library function and letting it
     report the error.  If mathematical functions on your system use
     `matherr' when there is an error, then you should leave
     `TARGET_EDOM' undefined so that `matherr' is used normally.

`GEN_ERRNO_RTX'
     Define this macro as a C expression to create an rtl expression
     that refers to the global "variable" `errno'.  (On certain systems,
     `errno' may not actually be a variable.)  If you don't define this
     macro, a reasonable default is used.

`TARGET_MEM_FUNCTIONS'
     Define this macro if GCC should generate calls to the ISO C (and
     System V) library functions `memcpy', `memmove' and `memset'
     rather than the BSD functions `bcopy' and `bzero'.

`LIBGCC_NEEDS_DOUBLE'
     Define this macro if `float' arguments cannot be passed to library
     routines (so they must be converted to `double').  This macro
     affects both how library calls are generated and how the library
     routines in `libgcc.a' accept their arguments.  It is useful on
     machines where floating and fixed point arguments are passed
     differently, such as the i860.

`NEXT_OBJC_RUNTIME'
     Define this macro to generate code for Objective-C message sending
     using the calling convention of the NeXT system.  This calling
     convention involves passing the object, the selector and the
     method arguments all at once to the method-lookup library function.

     The default calling convention passes just the object and the
     selector to the lookup function, which returns a pointer to the
     method.

Addressing Modes
================

This is about addressing modes.

`HAVE_PRE_INCREMENT'
`HAVE_PRE_DECREMENT'
`HAVE_POST_INCREMENT'
`HAVE_POST_DECREMENT'
     A C expression that is nonzero if the machine supports
     pre-increment, pre-decrement, post-increment, or post-decrement
     addressing respectively.

`HAVE_PRE_MODIFY_DISP'
`HAVE_POST_MODIFY_DISP'
     A C expression that is nonzero if the machine supports pre- or
     post-address side-effect generation involving constants other than
     the size of the memory operand.

`HAVE_PRE_MODIFY_REG'
`HAVE_POST_MODIFY_REG'
     A C expression that is nonzero if the machine supports pre- or
     post-address side-effect generation involving a register
     displacement.

`CONSTANT_ADDRESS_P (X)'
     A C expression that is 1 if the RTX X is a constant which is a
     valid address.  On most machines, this can be defined as
     `CONSTANT_P (X)', but a few machines are more restrictive in which
     constant addresses are supported.

     `CONSTANT_P' accepts integer-values expressions whose values are
     not explicitly known, such as `symbol_ref', `label_ref', and
     `high' expressions and `const' arithmetic expressions, in addition
     to `const_int' and `const_double' expressions.

`MAX_REGS_PER_ADDRESS'
     A number, the maximum number of registers that can appear in a
     valid memory address.  Note that it is up to you to specify a
     value equal to the maximum number that `GO_IF_LEGITIMATE_ADDRESS'
     would ever accept.

`GO_IF_LEGITIMATE_ADDRESS (MODE, X, LABEL)'
     A C compound statement with a conditional `goto LABEL;' executed
     if X (an RTX) is a legitimate memory address on the target machine
     for a memory operand of mode MODE.

     It usually pays to define several simpler macros to serve as
     subroutines for this one.  Otherwise it may be too complicated to
     understand.

     This macro must exist in two variants: a strict variant and a
     non-strict one.  The strict variant is used in the reload pass.  It
     must be defined so that any pseudo-register that has not been
     allocated a hard register is considered a memory reference.  In
     contexts where some kind of register is required, a pseudo-register
     with no hard register must be rejected.

     The non-strict variant is used in other passes.  It must be
     defined to accept all pseudo-registers in every context where some
     kind of register is required.

     Compiler source files that want to use the strict variant of this
     macro define the macro `REG_OK_STRICT'.  You should use an `#ifdef
     REG_OK_STRICT' conditional to define the strict variant in that
     case and the non-strict variant otherwise.

     Subroutines to check for acceptable registers for various purposes
     (one for base registers, one for index registers, and so on) are
     typically among the subroutines used to define
     `GO_IF_LEGITIMATE_ADDRESS'.  Then only these subroutine macros
     need have two variants; the higher levels of macros may be the
     same whether strict or not.

     Normally, constant addresses which are the sum of a `symbol_ref'
     and an integer are stored inside a `const' RTX to mark them as
     constant.  Therefore, there is no need to recognize such sums
     specifically as legitimate addresses.  Normally you would simply
     recognize any `const' as legitimate.

     Usually `PRINT_OPERAND_ADDRESS' is not prepared to handle constant
     sums that are not marked with  `const'.  It assumes that a naked
     `plus' indicates indexing.  If so, then you _must_ reject such
     naked constant sums as illegitimate addresses, so that none of
     them will be given to `PRINT_OPERAND_ADDRESS'.

     On some machines, whether a symbolic address is legitimate depends
     on the section that the address refers to.  On these machines,
     define the macro `ENCODE_SECTION_INFO' to store the information
     into the `symbol_ref', and then check for it here.  When you see a
     `const', you will have to look inside it to find the `symbol_ref'
     in order to determine the section.  *Note Assembler Format::.

     The best way to modify the name string is by adding text to the
     beginning, with suitable punctuation to prevent any ambiguity.
     Allocate the new name in `saveable_obstack'.  You will have to
     modify `ASM_OUTPUT_LABELREF' to remove and decode the added text
     and output the name accordingly, and define `STRIP_NAME_ENCODING'
     to access the original name string.

     You can check the information stored here into the `symbol_ref' in
     the definitions of the macros `GO_IF_LEGITIMATE_ADDRESS' and
     `PRINT_OPERAND_ADDRESS'.

`REG_OK_FOR_BASE_P (X)'
     A C expression that is nonzero if X (assumed to be a `reg' RTX) is
     valid for use as a base register.  For hard registers, it should
     always accept those which the hardware permits and reject the
     others.  Whether the macro accepts or rejects pseudo registers
     must be controlled by `REG_OK_STRICT' as described above.  This
     usually requires two variant definitions, of which `REG_OK_STRICT'
     controls the one actually used.

`REG_MODE_OK_FOR_BASE_P (X, MODE)'
     A C expression that is just like `REG_OK_FOR_BASE_P', except that
     that expression may examine the mode of the memory reference in
     MODE.  You should define this macro if the mode of the memory
     reference affects whether a register may be used as a base
     register.  If you define this macro, the compiler will use it
     instead of `REG_OK_FOR_BASE_P'.

`REG_OK_FOR_INDEX_P (X)'
     A C expression that is nonzero if X (assumed to be a `reg' RTX) is
     valid for use as an index register.

     The difference between an index register and a base register is
     that the index register may be scaled.  If an address involves the
     sum of two registers, neither one of them scaled, then either one
     may be labeled the "base" and the other the "index"; but whichever
     labeling is used must fit the machine's constraints of which
     registers may serve in each capacity.  The compiler will try both
     labelings, looking for one that is valid, and will reload one or
     both registers only if neither labeling works.

`FIND_BASE_TERM (X)'
     A C expression to determine the base term of address X.  This
     macro is used in only one place: `find_base_term' in alias.c.

     It is always safe for this macro to not be defined.  It exists so
     that alias analysis can understand machine-dependent addresses.

     The typical use of this macro is to handle addresses containing a
     label_ref or symbol_ref within an UNSPEC.

`LEGITIMIZE_ADDRESS (X, OLDX, MODE, WIN)'
     A C compound statement that attempts to replace X with a valid
     memory address for an operand of mode MODE.  WIN will be a C
     statement label elsewhere in the code; the macro definition may use

          GO_IF_LEGITIMATE_ADDRESS (MODE, X, WIN);

     to avoid further processing if the address has become legitimate.

     X will always be the result of a call to `break_out_memory_refs',
     and OLDX will be the operand that was given to that function to
     produce X.

     The code generated by this macro should not alter the substructure
     of X.  If it transforms X into a more legitimate form, it should
     assign X (which will always be a C variable) a new value.

     It is not necessary for this macro to come up with a legitimate
     address.  The compiler has standard ways of doing so in all cases.
     In fact, it is safe for this macro to do nothing.  But often a
     machine-dependent strategy can generate better code.

`LEGITIMIZE_RELOAD_ADDRESS (X, MODE, OPNUM, TYPE, IND_LEVELS, WIN)'
     A C compound statement that attempts to replace X, which is an
     address that needs reloading, with a valid memory address for an
     operand of mode MODE.  WIN will be a C statement label elsewhere
     in the code.  It is not necessary to define this macro, but it
     might be useful for performance reasons.

     For example, on the i386, it is sometimes possible to use a single
     reload register instead of two by reloading a sum of two pseudo
     registers into a register.  On the other hand, for number of RISC
     processors offsets are limited so that often an intermediate
     address needs to be generated in order to address a stack slot.
     By defining `LEGITIMIZE_RELOAD_ADDRESS' appropriately, the
     intermediate addresses generated for adjacent some stack slots can
     be made identical, and thus be shared.

     _Note_: This macro should be used with caution.  It is necessary
     to know something of how reload works in order to effectively use
     this, and it is quite easy to produce macros that build in too
     much knowledge of reload internals.

     _Note_: This macro must be able to reload an address created by a
     previous invocation of this macro.  If it fails to handle such
     addresses then the compiler may generate incorrect code or abort.

     The macro definition should use `push_reload' to indicate parts
     that need reloading; OPNUM, TYPE and IND_LEVELS are usually
     suitable to be passed unaltered to `push_reload'.

     The code generated by this macro must not alter the substructure of
     X.  If it transforms X into a more legitimate form, it should
     assign X (which will always be a C variable) a new value.  This
     also applies to parts that you change indirectly by calling
     `push_reload'.

     The macro definition may use `strict_memory_address_p' to test if
     the address has become legitimate.

     If you want to change only a part of X, one standard way of doing
     this is to use `copy_rtx'.  Note, however, that is unshares only a
     single level of rtl.  Thus, if the part to be changed is not at the
     top level, you'll need to replace first the top level.  It is not
     necessary for this macro to come up with a legitimate address;
     but often a machine-dependent strategy can generate better code.

`GO_IF_MODE_DEPENDENT_ADDRESS (ADDR, LABEL)'
     A C statement or compound statement with a conditional `goto
     LABEL;' executed if memory address X (an RTX) can have different
     meanings depending on the machine mode of the memory reference it
     is used for or if the address is valid for some modes but not
     others.

     Autoincrement and autodecrement addresses typically have
     mode-dependent effects because the amount of the increment or
     decrement is the size of the operand being addressed.  Some
     machines have other mode-dependent addresses.  Many RISC machines
     have no mode-dependent addresses.

     You may assume that ADDR is a valid address for the machine.

`LEGITIMATE_CONSTANT_P (X)'
     A C expression that is nonzero if X is a legitimate constant for
     an immediate operand on the target machine.  You can assume that X
     satisfies `CONSTANT_P', so you need not check this.  In fact, `1'
     is a suitable definition for this macro on machines where anything
     `CONSTANT_P' is valid.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Condition Code,  Next: Costs,  Prev: Addressing Modes,  Up: Target Macros

Condition Code Status
=====================

This describes the condition code status.

   The file `conditions.h' defines a variable `cc_status' to describe
how the condition code was computed (in case the interpretation of the
condition code depends on the instruction that it was set by).  This
variable contains the RTL expressions on which the condition code is
currently based, and several standard flags.

   Sometimes additional machine-specific flags must be defined in the
machine description header file.  It can also add additional
machine-specific information by defining `CC_STATUS_MDEP'.

`CC_STATUS_MDEP'
     C code for a data type which is used for declaring the `mdep'
     component of `cc_status'.  It defaults to `int'.

     This macro is not used on machines that do not use `cc0'.

`CC_STATUS_MDEP_INIT'
     A C expression to initialize the `mdep' field to "empty".  The
     default definition does nothing, since most machines don't use the
     field anyway.  If you want to use the field, you should probably
     define this macro to initialize it.

     This macro is not used on machines that do not use `cc0'.

`NOTICE_UPDATE_CC (EXP, INSN)'
     A C compound statement to set the components of `cc_status'
     appropriately for an insn INSN whose body is EXP.  It is this
     macro's responsibility to recognize insns that set the condition
     code as a byproduct of other activity as well as those that
     explicitly set `(cc0)'.

     This macro is not used on machines that do not use `cc0'.

     If there are insns that do not set the condition code but do alter
     other machine registers, this macro must check to see whether they
     invalidate the expressions that the condition code is recorded as
     reflecting.  For example, on the 68000, insns that store in address
     registers do not set the condition code, which means that usually
     `NOTICE_UPDATE_CC' can leave `cc_status' unaltered for such insns.
     But suppose that the previous insn set the condition code based
     on location `a4@(102)' and the current insn stores a new value in
     `a4'.  Although the condition code is not changed by this, it will
     no longer be true that it reflects the contents of `a4@(102)'.
     Therefore, `NOTICE_UPDATE_CC' must alter `cc_status' in this case
     to say that nothing is known about the condition code value.

     The definition of `NOTICE_UPDATE_CC' must be prepared to deal with
     the results of peephole optimization: insns whose patterns are
     `parallel' RTXs containing various `reg', `mem' or constants which
     are just the operands.  The RTL structure of these insns is not
     sufficient to indicate what the insns actually do.  What
     `NOTICE_UPDATE_CC' should do when it sees one is just to run
     `CC_STATUS_INIT'.

     A possible definition of `NOTICE_UPDATE_CC' is to call a function
     that looks at an attribute (*note Insn Attributes::) named, for
     example, `cc'.  This avoids having detailed information about
     patterns in two places, the `md' file and in `NOTICE_UPDATE_CC'.

`EXTRA_CC_MODES'
     A list of additional modes for condition code values in registers
     (*note Jump Patterns::).  This macro should expand to a sequence of
     calls of the macro `CC' separated by white space.  `CC' takes two
     arguments.  The first is the enumeration name of the mode, which
     should begin with `CC' and end with `mode'.  The second is a C
     string giving the printable name of the mode; it should be the
     same as the first argument, but with the trailing `mode' removed.

     You should only define this macro if additional modes are required.

     A sample definition of `EXTRA_CC_MODES' is:
          #define EXTRA_CC_MODES            \
              CC(CC_NOOVmode, "CC_NOOV")    \
              CC(CCFPmode, "CCFP")          \
              CC(CCFPEmode, "CCFPE")

`SELECT_CC_MODE (OP, X, Y)'
     Returns a mode from class `MODE_CC' to be used when comparison
     operation code OP is applied to rtx X and Y.  For example, on the
     Sparc, `SELECT_CC_MODE' is defined as (see *note Jump Patterns::
     for a description of the reason for this definition)

          #define SELECT_CC_MODE(OP,X,Y) \
            (GET_MODE_CLASS (GET_MODE (X)) == MODE_FLOAT          \
             ? ((OP == EQ || OP == NE) ? CCFPmode : CCFPEmode)    \
             : ((GET_CODE (X) == PLUS || GET_CODE (X) == MINUS    \
                 || GET_CODE (X) == NEG) \
                ? CC_NOOVmode : CCmode))

     You need not define this macro if `EXTRA_CC_MODES' is not defined.

`CANONICALIZE_COMPARISON (CODE, OP0, OP1)'
     On some machines not all possible comparisons are defined, but you
     can convert an invalid comparison into a valid one.  For example,
     the Alpha does not have a `GT' comparison, but you can use an `LT'
     comparison instead and swap the order of the operands.

     On such machines, define this macro to be a C statement to do any
     required conversions.  CODE is the initial comparison code and OP0
     and OP1 are the left and right operands of the comparison,
     respectively.  You should modify CODE, OP0, and OP1 as required.

     GCC will not assume that the comparison resulting from this macro
     is valid but will see if the resulting insn matches a pattern in
     the `md' file.

     You need not define this macro if it would never change the
     comparison code or operands.

`REVERSIBLE_CC_MODE (MODE)'
     A C expression whose value is one if it is always safe to reverse a
     comparison whose mode is MODE.  If `SELECT_CC_MODE' can ever
     return MODE for a floating-point inequality comparison, then
     `REVERSIBLE_CC_MODE (MODE)' must be zero.

     You need not define this macro if it would always returns zero or
     if the floating-point format is anything other than
     `IEEE_FLOAT_FORMAT'.  For example, here is the definition used on
     the Sparc, where floating-point inequality comparisons are always
     given `CCFPEmode':

          #define REVERSIBLE_CC_MODE(MODE)  ((MODE) != CCFPEmode)

     A C expression whose value is reversed condition code of the CODE
     for comparison done in CC_MODE MODE.  The macro is used only in
     case `REVERSIBLE_CC_MODE (MODE)' is nonzero.  Define this macro in
     case machine has some non-standard way how to reverse certain
     conditionals.  For instance in case all floating point conditions
     are non-trapping, compiler may freely convert unordered compares
     to ordered one.  Then definition may look like:

          #define REVERSE_CONDITION(CODE, MODE) \
             ((MODE) != CCFPmode ? reverse_condition (CODE) \
              : reverse_condition_maybe_unordered (CODE))

`REVERSE_CONDEXEC_PREDICATES_P (CODE1, CODE2)'
     A C expression that returns true if the conditional execution
     predicate CODE1 is the inverse of CODE2 and vice versa.  Define
     this to return 0 if the target has conditional execution
     predicates that cannot be reversed safely.  If no expansion is
     specified, this macro is defined as follows:

          #define REVERSE_CONDEXEC_PREDICATES_P (x, y) \
             ((x) == reverse_condition (y))



File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Costs,  Next: Scheduling,  Prev: Condition Code,  Up: Target Macros

Describing Relative Costs of Operations
=======================================

These macros let you describe the relative speed of various operations
on the target machine.

`CONST_COSTS (X, CODE, OUTER_CODE)'
     A part of a C `switch' statement that describes the relative costs
     of constant RTL expressions.  It must contain `case' labels for
     expression codes `const_int', `const', `symbol_ref', `label_ref'
     and `const_double'.  Each case must ultimately reach a `return'
     statement to return the relative cost of the use of that kind of
     constant value in an expression.  The cost may depend on the
     precise value of the constant, which is available for examination
     in X, and the rtx code of the expression in which it is contained,
     found in OUTER_CODE.

     CODE is the expression code--redundant, since it can be obtained
     with `GET_CODE (X)'.

`RTX_COSTS (X, CODE, OUTER_CODE)'
     Like `CONST_COSTS' but applies to nonconstant RTL expressions.
     This can be used, for example, to indicate how costly a multiply
     instruction is.  In writing this macro, you can use the construct
     `COSTS_N_INSNS (N)' to specify a cost equal to N fast
     instructions.  OUTER_CODE is the code of the expression in which X
     is contained.

     This macro is optional; do not define it if the default cost
     assumptions are adequate for the target machine.

`DEFAULT_RTX_COSTS (X, CODE, OUTER_CODE)'
     This macro, if defined, is called for any case not handled by the
     `RTX_COSTS' or `CONST_COSTS' macros.  This eliminates the need to
     put case labels into the macro, but the code, or any functions it
     calls, must assume that the RTL in X could be of any type that has
     not already been handled.  The arguments are the same as for
     `RTX_COSTS', and the macro should execute a return statement giving
     the cost of any RTL expressions that it can handle.  The default
     cost calculation is used for any RTL for which this macro does not
     return a value.

     This macro is optional; do not define it if the default cost
     assumptions are adequate for the target machine.

`ADDRESS_COST (ADDRESS)'
     An expression giving the cost of an addressing mode that contains
     ADDRESS.  If not defined, the cost is computed from the ADDRESS
     expression and the `CONST_COSTS' values.

     For most CISC machines, the default cost is a good approximation
     of the true cost of the addressing mode.  However, on RISC
     machines, all instructions normally have the same length and
     execution time.  Hence all addresses will have equal costs.

     In cases where more than one form of an address is known, the form
     with the lowest cost will be used.  If multiple forms have the
     same, lowest, cost, the one that is the most complex will be used.

     For example, suppose an address that is equal to the sum of a
     register and a constant is used twice in the same basic block.
     When this macro is not defined, the address will be computed in a
     register and memory references will be indirect through that
     register.  On machines where the cost of the addressing mode
     containing the sum is no higher than that of a simple indirect
     reference, this will produce an additional instruction and
     possibly require an additional register.  Proper specification of
     this macro eliminates this overhead for such machines.

     Similar use of this macro is made in strength reduction of loops.

     ADDRESS need not be valid as an address.  In such a case, the cost
     is not relevant and can be any value; invalid addresses need not be
     assigned a different cost.

     On machines where an address involving more than one register is as
     cheap as an address computation involving only one register,
     defining `ADDRESS_COST' to reflect this can cause two registers to
     be live over a region of code where only one would have been if
     `ADDRESS_COST' were not defined in that manner.  This effect should
     be considered in the definition of this macro.  Equivalent costs
     should probably only be given to addresses with different numbers
     of registers on machines with lots of registers.

     This macro will normally either not be defined or be defined as a
     constant.

`REGISTER_MOVE_COST (MODE, FROM, TO)'
     A C expression for the cost of moving data of mode MODE from a
     register in class FROM to one in class TO.  The classes are
     expressed using the enumeration values such as `GENERAL_REGS'.  A
     value of 2 is the default; other values are interpreted relative to
     that.

     It is not required that the cost always equal 2 when FROM is the
     same as TO; on some machines it is expensive to move between
     registers if they are not general registers.

     If reload sees an insn consisting of a single `set' between two
     hard registers, and if `REGISTER_MOVE_COST' applied to their
     classes returns a value of 2, reload does not check to ensure that
     the constraints of the insn are met.  Setting a cost of other than
     2 will allow reload to verify that the constraints are met.  You
     should do this if the `movM' pattern's constraints do not allow
     such copying.

`MEMORY_MOVE_COST (MODE, CLASS, IN)'
     A C expression for the cost of moving data of mode MODE between a
     register of class CLASS and memory; IN is zero if the value is to
     be written to memory, nonzero if it is to be read in.  This cost
     is relative to those in `REGISTER_MOVE_COST'.  If moving between
     registers and memory is more expensive than between two registers,
     you should define this macro to express the relative cost.

     If you do not define this macro, GCC uses a default cost of 4 plus
     the cost of copying via a secondary reload register, if one is
     needed.  If your machine requires a secondary reload register to
     copy between memory and a register of CLASS but the reload
     mechanism is more complex than copying via an intermediate, define
     this macro to reflect the actual cost of the move.

     GCC defines the function `memory_move_secondary_cost' if secondary
     reloads are needed.  It computes the costs due to copying via a
     secondary register.  If your machine copies from memory using a
     secondary register in the conventional way but the default base
     value of 4 is not correct for your machine, define this macro to
     add some other value to the result of that function.  The
     arguments to that function are the same as to this macro.

`BRANCH_COST'
     A C expression for the cost of a branch instruction.  A value of 1
     is the default; other values are interpreted relative to that.

   Here are additional macros which do not specify precise relative
costs, but only that certain actions are more expensive than GCC would
ordinarily expect.

`SLOW_BYTE_ACCESS'
     Define this macro as a C expression which is nonzero if accessing
     less than a word of memory (i.e. a `char' or a `short') is no
     faster than accessing a word of memory, i.e., if such access
     require more than one instruction or if there is no difference in
     cost between byte and (aligned) word loads.

     When this macro is not defined, the compiler will access a field by
     finding the smallest containing object; when it is defined, a
     fullword load will be used if alignment permits.  Unless bytes
     accesses are faster than word accesses, using word accesses is
     preferable since it may eliminate subsequent memory access if
     subsequent accesses occur to other fields in the same word of the
     structure, but to different bytes.

`SLOW_UNALIGNED_ACCESS (MODE, ALIGNMENT)'
     Define this macro to be the value 1 if memory accesses described
     by the MODE and ALIGNMENT parameters have a cost many times greater
     than aligned accesses, for example if they are emulated in a trap
     handler.

     When this macro is nonzero, the compiler will act as if
     `STRICT_ALIGNMENT' were nonzero when generating code for block
     moves.  This can cause significantly more instructions to be
     produced.  Therefore, do not set this macro nonzero if unaligned
     accesses only add a cycle or two to the time for a memory access.

     If the value of this macro is always zero, it need not be defined.
     If this macro is defined, it should produce a nonzero value when
     `STRICT_ALIGNMENT' is nonzero.

`DONT_REDUCE_ADDR'
     Define this macro to inhibit strength reduction of memory
     addresses.  (On some machines, such strength reduction seems to do
     harm rather than good.)

`MOVE_RATIO'
     The threshold of number of scalar memory-to-memory move insns,
     _below_ which a sequence of insns should be generated instead of a
     string move insn or a library call.  Increasing the value will
     always make code faster, but eventually incurs high cost in
     increased code size.

     Note that on machines where the corresponding move insn is a
     `define_expand' that emits a sequence of insns, this macro counts
     the number of such sequences.

     If you don't define this, a reasonable default is used.

`MOVE_BY_PIECES_P (SIZE, ALIGNMENT)'
     A C expression used to determine whether `move_by_pieces' will be
     used to copy a chunk of memory, or whether some other block move
     mechanism will be used.  Defaults to 1 if `move_by_pieces_ninsns'
     returns less than `MOVE_RATIO'.

`MOVE_MAX_PIECES'
     A C expression used by `move_by_pieces' to determine the largest
     unit a load or store used to copy memory is.  Defaults to
     `MOVE_MAX'.

`USE_LOAD_POST_INCREMENT (MODE)'
     A C expression used to determine whether a load postincrement is a
     good thing to use for a given mode.  Defaults to the value of
     `HAVE_POST_INCREMENT'.

`USE_LOAD_POST_DECREMENT (MODE)'
     A C expression used to determine whether a load postdecrement is a
     good thing to use for a given mode.  Defaults to the value of
     `HAVE_POST_DECREMENT'.

`USE_LOAD_PRE_INCREMENT (MODE)'
     A C expression used to determine whether a load preincrement is a
     good thing to use for a given mode.  Defaults to the value of
     `HAVE_PRE_INCREMENT'.

`USE_LOAD_PRE_DECREMENT (MODE)'
     A C expression used to determine whether a load predecrement is a
     good thing to use for a given mode.  Defaults to the value of
     `HAVE_PRE_DECREMENT'.

`USE_STORE_POST_INCREMENT (MODE)'
     A C expression used to determine whether a store postincrement is
     a good thing to use for a given mode.  Defaults to the value of
     `HAVE_POST_INCREMENT'.

`USE_STORE_POST_DECREMENT (MODE)'
     A C expression used to determine whether a store postdecrement is
     a good thing to use for a given mode.  Defaults to the value of
     `HAVE_POST_DECREMENT'.

`USE_STORE_PRE_INCREMENT (MODE)'
     This macro is used to determine whether a store preincrement is a
     good thing to use for a given mode.  Defaults to the value of
     `HAVE_PRE_INCREMENT'.

`USE_STORE_PRE_DECREMENT (MODE)'
     This macro is used to determine whether a store predecrement is a
     good thing to use for a given mode.  Defaults to the value of
     `HAVE_PRE_DECREMENT'.

`NO_FUNCTION_CSE'
     Define this macro if it is as good or better to call a constant
     function address than to call an address kept in a register.

`NO_RECURSIVE_FUNCTION_CSE'
     Define this macro if it is as good or better for a function to call
     itself with an explicit address than to call an address kept in a
     register.

Adjusting the Instruction Scheduler
===================================

The instruction scheduler may need a fair amount of machine-specific
adjustment in order to produce good code.  GCC provides several target
hooks for this purpose.  It is usually enough to define just a few of
them: try the first ones in this list first.

 - Target Hook: int TARGET_SCHED_ISSUE_RATE (void)
     This hook returns the maximum number of instructions that can ever
     issue at the same time on the target machine.  The default is one.
     This value must be constant over the entire compilation.  If you
     need it to vary depending on what the instructions are, you must
     use `TARGET_SCHED_VARIABLE_ISSUE'.

 - Target Hook: int TARGET_SCHED_VARIABLE_ISSUE (FILE *FILE, int
          VERBOSE, rtx INSN, int MORE)
     This hook is executed by the scheduler after it has scheduled an
     insn from the ready list.  It should return the number of insns
     which can still be issued in the current cycle.  Normally this is
     `MORE - 1'.  You should define this hook if some insns take more
     machine resources than others, so that fewer insns can follow them
     in the same cycle.  FILE is either a null pointer, or a stdio
     stream to write any debug output to.  VERBOSE is the verbose level
     provided by `-fsched-verbose-N'.  INSN is the instruction that was
     scheduled.

 - Target Hook: int TARGET_SCHED_ADJUST_COST (rtx INSN, rtx LINK, rtx
          DEP_INSN, int COST)
     This function corrects the value of COST based on the relationship
     between INSN and DEP_INSN through the dependence LINK.  It should
     return the new value.  The default is to make no adjustment to
     COST.  This can be used for example to specify to the scheduler
     that an output- or anti-dependence does not incur the same cost as
     a data-dependence.

 - Target Hook: int TARGET_SCHED_ADJUST_PRIORITY (rtx INSN, int
          PRIORITY)
     This hook adjusts the integer scheduling priority PRIORITY of
     INSN.  It should return the new priority.  Reduce the priority to
     execute INSN earlier, increase the priority to execute INSN later.
     Do not define this hook if you do not need to adjust the
     scheduling priorities of insns.

 - Target Hook: int TARGET_SCHED_REORDER (FILE *FILE, int VERBOSE, rtx
          *READY, int *N_READYP, int CLOCK)
     This hook is executed by the scheduler after it has scheduled the
     ready list, to allow the machine description to reorder it (for
     example to combine two small instructions together on `VLIW'
     machines).  FILE is either a null pointer, or a stdio stream to
     write any debug output to.  VERBOSE is the verbose level provided
     by `-fsched-verbose-N'.  READY is a pointer to the ready list of
     instructions that are ready to be scheduled.  N_READYP is a
     pointer to the number of elements in the ready list.  The scheduler
     reads the ready list in reverse order, starting with
     READY[*N_READYP-1] and going to READY[0].  CLOCK is the timer tick
     of the scheduler.  You may modify the ready list and the number of
     ready insns.  The return value is the number of insns that can
     issue this cycle; normally this is just `issue_rate'.  See also
     `TARGET_SCHED_REORDER2'.

 - Target Hook: int TARGET_SCHED_REORDER2 (FILE *FILE, int VERBOSE, rtx
          *READY, int *N_READY, CLOCK)
     Like `TARGET_SCHED_REORDER', but called at a different time.  That
     function is called whenever the scheduler starts a new cycle.
     This one is called once per iteration over a cycle, immediately
     after `TARGET_SCHED_VARIABLE_ISSUE'; it can reorder the ready list
     and return the number of insns to be scheduled in the same cycle.
     Defining this hook can be useful if there are frequent situations
     where scheduling one insn causes other insns to become ready in
     the same cycle.  These other insns can then be taken into account
     properly.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_SCHED_INIT (FILE *FILE, int VERBOSE, int
          MAX_READY)
     This hook is executed by the scheduler at the beginning of each
     block of instructions that are to be scheduled.  FILE is either a
     null pointer, or a stdio stream to write any debug output to.
     VERBOSE is the verbose level provided by `-fsched-verbose-N'.
     MAX_READY is the maximum number of insns in the current scheduling
     region that can be live at the same time.  This can be used to
     allocate scratch space if it is needed, e.g. by
     `TARGET_SCHED_REORDER'.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_SCHED_FINISH (FILE *FILE, int VERBOSE)
     This hook is executed by the scheduler at the end of each block of
     instructions that are to be scheduled.  It can be used to perform
     cleanup of any actions done by the other scheduling hooks.  FILE
     is either a null pointer, or a stdio stream to write any debug
     output to.  VERBOSE is the verbose level provided by
     `-fsched-verbose-N'.

 - Target Hook: rtx TARGET_SCHED_CYCLE_DISPLAY (int CLOCK, rtx LAST)
     This hook is called in verbose mode only, at the beginning of each
     pass over a basic block.  It should insert an insn into the chain
     after LAST, which has no effect, but records the value CLOCK in
     RTL dumps and assembly output.  Define this hook only if you need
     this level of detail about what the scheduler is doing.

Dividing the Output into Sections (Texts, Data, ...)
====================================================

An object file is divided into sections containing different types of
data.  In the most common case, there are three sections: the "text
section", which holds instructions and read-only data; the "data
section", which holds initialized writable data; and the "bss section",
which holds uninitialized data.  Some systems have other kinds of
sections.

   The compiler must tell the assembler when to switch sections.  These
macros control what commands to output to tell the assembler this.  You
can also define additional sections.

`TEXT_SECTION_ASM_OP'
     A C expression whose value is a string, including spacing,
     containing the assembler operation that should precede
     instructions and read-only data.  Normally `"\t.text"' is right.

`TEXT_SECTION'
     A C statement that switches to the default section containing
     instructions.  Normally this is not needed, as simply defining
     `TEXT_SECTION_ASM_OP' is enough.  The MIPS port uses this to sort
     all functions after all data declarations.

`DATA_SECTION_ASM_OP'
     A C expression whose value is a string, including spacing,
     containing the assembler operation to identify the following data
     as writable initialized data.  Normally `"\t.data"' is right.

`SHARED_SECTION_ASM_OP'
     If defined, a C expression whose value is a string, including
     spacing, containing the assembler operation to identify the
     following data as shared data.  If not defined,
     `DATA_SECTION_ASM_OP' will be used.

`BSS_SECTION_ASM_OP'
     If defined, a C expression whose value is a string, including
     spacing, containing the assembler operation to identify the
     following data as uninitialized global data.  If not defined, and
     neither `ASM_OUTPUT_BSS' nor `ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_BSS' are defined,
     uninitialized global data will be output in the data section if
     `-fno-common' is passed, otherwise `ASM_OUTPUT_COMMON' will be
     used.

`SHARED_BSS_SECTION_ASM_OP'
     If defined, a C expression whose value is a string, including
     spacing, containing the assembler operation to identify the
     following data as uninitialized global shared data.  If not
     defined, and `BSS_SECTION_ASM_OP' is, the latter will be used.

`INIT_SECTION_ASM_OP'
     If defined, a C expression whose value is a string, including
     spacing, containing the assembler operation to identify the
     following data as initialization code.  If not defined, GCC will
     assume such a section does not exist.

`FINI_SECTION_ASM_OP'
     If defined, a C expression whose value is a string, including
     spacing, containing the assembler operation to identify the
     following data as finalization code.  If not defined, GCC will
     assume such a section does not exist.

`CRT_CALL_STATIC_FUNCTION (SECTION_OP, FUNCTION)'
     If defined, an ASM statement that switches to a different section
     via SECTION_OP, calls FUNCTION, and switches back to the text
     section.  This is used in `crtstuff.c' if `INIT_SECTION_ASM_OP' or
     `FINI_SECTION_ASM_OP' to calls to initialization and finalization
     functions from the init and fini sections.  By default, this macro
     uses a simple function call.  Some ports need hand-crafted
     assembly code to avoid dependencies on registers initialized in
     the function prologue or to ensure that constant pools don't end
     up too far way in the text section.

`FORCE_CODE_SECTION_ALIGN'
     If defined, an ASM statement that aligns a code section to some
     arbitrary boundary.  This is used to force all fragments of the
     `.init' and `.fini' sections to have to same alignment and thus
     prevent the linker from having to add any padding.

`EXTRA_SECTIONS'
     A list of names for sections other than the standard two, which are
     `in_text' and `in_data'.  You need not define this macro on a
     system with no other sections (that GCC needs to use).

`EXTRA_SECTION_FUNCTIONS'
     One or more functions to be defined in `varasm.c'.  These
     functions should do jobs analogous to those of `text_section' and
     `data_section', for your additional sections.  Do not define this
     macro if you do not define `EXTRA_SECTIONS'.

`READONLY_DATA_SECTION'
     On most machines, read-only variables, constants, and jump tables
     are placed in the text section.  If this is not the case on your
     machine, this macro should be defined to be the name of a function
     (either `data_section' or a function defined in `EXTRA_SECTIONS')
     that switches to the section to be used for read-only items.

     If these items should be placed in the text section, this macro
     should not be defined.

`SELECT_SECTION (EXP, RELOC, ALIGN)'
     A C statement or statements to switch to the appropriate section
     for output of EXP.  You can assume that EXP is either a `VAR_DECL'
     node or a constant of some sort.  RELOC indicates whether the
     initial value of EXP requires link-time relocations.  Bit 1 is set
     when variable contains local relocations only, while bit 2 is set
     for global relocations.  Select the section by calling
     `text_section' or one of the alternatives for other sections.
     ALIGN is the constant alignment in bits.

     Do not define this macro if you put all read-only variables and
     constants in the read-only data section (usually the text section).

`SELECT_RTX_SECTION (MODE, RTX, ALIGN)'
     A C statement or statements to switch to the appropriate section
     for output of RTX in mode MODE.  You can assume that RTX is some
     kind of constant in RTL.  The argument MODE is redundant except in
     the case of a `const_int' rtx.  Select the section by calling
     `text_section' or one of the alternatives for other sections.
     ALIGN is the constant alignment in bits.

     Do not define this macro if you put all constants in the read-only
     data section.

`JUMP_TABLES_IN_TEXT_SECTION'
     Define this macro to be an expression with a nonzero value if jump
     tables (for `tablejump' insns) should be output in the text
     section, along with the assembler instructions.  Otherwise, the
     readonly data section is used.

     This macro is irrelevant if there is no separate readonly data
     section.

`ENCODE_SECTION_INFO (DECL)'
     Define this macro if references to a symbol or a constant must be
     treated differently depending on something about the variable or
     function named by the symbol (such as what section it is in).

     The macro definition, if any, is executed under two circumstances.
     One is immediately after the rtl for DECL that represents a
     variable or a function has been created and stored in `DECL_RTL
     (DECL)'.  The value of the rtl will be a `mem' whose address is a
     `symbol_ref'.  The other is immediately after the rtl for DECL
     that represents a constant has been created and stored in
     `TREE_CST_RTL (DECL)'.  The macro is called once for each distinct
     constant in a source file.

     The usual thing for this macro to do is to record a flag in the
     `symbol_ref' (such as `SYMBOL_REF_FLAG') or to store a modified
     name string in the `symbol_ref' (if one bit is not enough
     information).

`STRIP_NAME_ENCODING (VAR, SYM_NAME)'
     Decode SYM_NAME and store the real name part in VAR, sans the
     characters that encode section info.  Define this macro if
     `ENCODE_SECTION_INFO' alters the symbol's name string.

`UNIQUE_SECTION (DECL, RELOC)'
     A C statement to build up a unique section name, expressed as a
     `STRING_CST' node, and assign it to `DECL_SECTION_NAME (DECL)'.
     RELOC indicates whether the initial value of EXP requires
     link-time relocations.  If you do not define this macro, GCC will
     use the symbol name prefixed by `.' as the section name.  Note -
     this macro can now be called for uninitialized data items as well
     as initialized data and functions.

Position Independent Code
=========================

This section describes macros that help implement generation of position
independent code.  Simply defining these macros is not enough to
generate valid PIC; you must also add support to the macros
`GO_IF_LEGITIMATE_ADDRESS' and `PRINT_OPERAND_ADDRESS', as well as
`LEGITIMIZE_ADDRESS'.  You must modify the definition of `movsi' to do
something appropriate when the source operand contains a symbolic
address.  You may also need to alter the handling of switch statements
so that they use relative addresses.

`PIC_OFFSET_TABLE_REGNUM'
     The register number of the register used to address a table of
     static data addresses in memory.  In some cases this register is
     defined by a processor's "application binary interface" (ABI).
     When this macro is defined, RTL is generated for this register
     once, as with the stack pointer and frame pointer registers.  If
     this macro is not defined, it is up to the machine-dependent files
     to allocate such a register (if necessary).  Note that this
     register must be fixed when in use (e.g.  when `flag_pic' is true).

`PIC_OFFSET_TABLE_REG_CALL_CLOBBERED'
     Define this macro if the register defined by
     `PIC_OFFSET_TABLE_REGNUM' is clobbered by calls.  Do not define
     this macro if `PIC_OFFSET_TABLE_REGNUM' is not defined.

`FINALIZE_PIC'
     By generating position-independent code, when two different
     programs (A and B) share a common library (libC.a), the text of
     the library can be shared whether or not the library is linked at
     the same address for both programs.  In some of these
     environments, position-independent code requires not only the use
     of different addressing modes, but also special code to enable the
     use of these addressing modes.

     The `FINALIZE_PIC' macro serves as a hook to emit these special
     codes once the function is being compiled into assembly code, but
     not before.  (It is not done before, because in the case of
     compiling an inline function, it would lead to multiple PIC
     prologues being included in functions which used inline functions
     and were compiled to assembly language.)

`LEGITIMATE_PIC_OPERAND_P (X)'
     A C expression that is nonzero if X is a legitimate immediate
     operand on the target machine when generating position independent
     code.  You can assume that X satisfies `CONSTANT_P', so you need
     not check this.  You can also assume FLAG_PIC is true, so you need
     not check it either.  You need not define this macro if all
     constants (including `SYMBOL_REF') can be immediate operands when
     generating position independent code.

The Overall Framework of an Assembler File
------------------------------------------

This describes the overall framework of an assembler file.

`ASM_FILE_START (STREAM)'
     A C expression which outputs to the stdio stream STREAM some
     appropriate text to go at the start of an assembler file.

     Normally this macro is defined to output a line containing
     `#NO_APP', which is a comment that has no effect on most
     assemblers but tells the GNU assembler that it can save time by not
     checking for certain assembler constructs.

     On systems that use SDB, it is necessary to output certain
     commands; see `attasm.h'.

`ASM_FILE_END (STREAM)'
     A C expression which outputs to the stdio stream STREAM some
     appropriate text to go at the end of an assembler file.

     If this macro is not defined, the default is to output nothing
     special at the end of the file.  Most systems don't require any
     definition.

     On systems that use SDB, it is necessary to output certain
     commands; see `attasm.h'.

`ASM_COMMENT_START'
     A C string constant describing how to begin a comment in the target
     assembler language.  The compiler assumes that the comment will
     end at the end of the line.

`ASM_APP_ON'
     A C string constant for text to be output before each `asm'
     statement or group of consecutive ones.  Normally this is
     `"#APP"', which is a comment that has no effect on most assemblers
     but tells the GNU assembler that it must check the lines that
     follow for all valid assembler constructs.

`ASM_APP_OFF'
     A C string constant for text to be output after each `asm'
     statement or group of consecutive ones.  Normally this is
     `"#NO_APP"', which tells the GNU assembler to resume making the
     time-saving assumptions that are valid for ordinary compiler
     output.

`ASM_OUTPUT_SOURCE_FILENAME (STREAM, NAME)'
     A C statement to output COFF information or DWARF debugging
     information which indicates that filename NAME is the current
     source file to the stdio stream STREAM.

     This macro need not be defined if the standard form of output for
     the file format in use is appropriate.

`OUTPUT_QUOTED_STRING (STREAM, STRING)'
     A C statement to output the string STRING to the stdio stream
     STREAM.  If you do not call the function `output_quoted_string' in
     your config files, GCC will only call it to output filenames to
     the assembler source.  So you can use it to canonicalize the format
     of the filename using this macro.

`ASM_OUTPUT_SOURCE_LINE (STREAM, LINE)'
     A C statement to output DBX or SDB debugging information before
     code for line number LINE of the current source file to the stdio
     stream STREAM.

     This macro need not be defined if the standard form of debugging
     information for the debugger in use is appropriate.

`ASM_OUTPUT_IDENT (STREAM, STRING)'
     A C statement to output something to the assembler file to handle a
     `#ident' directive containing the text STRING.  If this macro is
     not defined, nothing is output for a `#ident' directive.

`OBJC_PROLOGUE'
     A C statement to output any assembler statements which are
     required to precede any Objective-C object definitions or message
     sending.  The statement is executed only when compiling an
     Objective-C program.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_ASM_NAMED_SECTION (const char *NAME,
          unsigned int FLAGS, unsigned int ALIGN)
     Output assembly directives to switch to section NAME.  The section
     should have attributes as specified by FLAGS, which is a bit mask
     of the `SECTION_*' flags defined in `output.h'.  If ALIGN is
     nonzero, it contains an alignment in bytes to be used for the
     section, otherwise some target default should be used.  Only
     targets that must specify an alignment within the section
     directive need pay attention to ALIGN - we will still use
     `ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGN'.

 - Target Hook: bool TARGET_HAVE_NAMED_SECTIONS
     This flag is true if the target supports
     `TARGET_ASM_NAMED_SECTION'.

 - Target Hook: unsigned int TARGET_SECTION_TYPE_FLAGS (tree DECL,
          const char *NAME, int RELOC)
     Choose a set of section attributes for use by
     `TARGET_ASM_NAMED_SECTION' based on a variable or function decl, a
     section name, and whether or not the declaration's initializer may
     contain runtime relocations.  DECL may be  null, in which case
     read-write data should be assumed.

     The default version if this function handles choosing code vs data,
     read-only vs read-write data, and `flag_pic'.  You should only
     need to override this if your target has special flags that might
     be set via `__attribute__'.

Output of Data
--------------

 - Target Hook: const char * TARGET_ASM_BYTE_OP
 - Target Hook: const char * TARGET_ASM_ALIGNED_HI_OP
 - Target Hook: const char * TARGET_ASM_ALIGNED_SI_OP
 - Target Hook: const char * TARGET_ASM_ALIGNED_DI_OP
 - Target Hook: const char * TARGET_ASM_ALIGNED_TI_OP
 - Target Hook: const char * TARGET_ASM_UNALIGNED_HI_OP
 - Target Hook: const char * TARGET_ASM_UNALIGNED_SI_OP
 - Target Hook: const char * TARGET_ASM_UNALIGNED_DI_OP
 - Target Hook: const char * TARGET_ASM_UNALIGNED_TI_OP
     These hooks specify assembly directives for creating certain kinds
     of integer object.  The `TARGET_ASM_BYTE_OP' directive creates a
     byte-sized object, the `TARGET_ASM_ALIGNED_HI_OP' one creates an
     aligned two-byte object, and so on.  Any of the hooks may be
     `NULL', indicating that no suitable directive is available.

     The compiler will print these strings at the start of a new line,
     followed immediately by the object's initial value.  In most cases,
     the string should contain a tab, a pseudo-op, and then another tab.

 - Target Hook: bool TARGET_ASM_INTEGER (rtx X, unsigned int SIZE, int
          ALIGNED_P)
     The `assemble_integer' function uses this hook to output an
     integer object.  X is the object's value, SIZE is its size in
     bytes and ALIGNED_P indicates whether it is aligned.  The function
     should return `true' if it was able to output the object.  If it
     returns false, `assemble_integer' will try to split the object
     into smaller parts.

     The default implementation of this hook will use the
     `TARGET_ASM_BYTE_OP' family of strings, returning `false' when the
     relevant string is `NULL'.

`OUTPUT_ADDR_CONST_EXTRA (STREAM, X, FAIL)'
     A C statement to recognize RTX patterns that `output_addr_const'
     can't deal with, and output assembly code to STREAM corresponding
     to the pattern X.  This may be used to allow machine-dependent
     `UNSPEC's to appear within constants.

     If `OUTPUT_ADDR_CONST_EXTRA' fails to recognize a pattern, it must
     `goto fail', so that a standard error message is printed.  If it
     prints an error message itself, by calling, for example,
     `output_operand_lossage', it may just complete normally.

`ASM_OUTPUT_ASCII (STREAM, PTR, LEN)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM an assembler
     instruction to assemble a string constant containing the LEN bytes
     at PTR.  PTR will be a C expression of type `char *' and LEN a C
     expression of type `int'.

     If the assembler has a `.ascii' pseudo-op as found in the Berkeley
     Unix assembler, do not define the macro `ASM_OUTPUT_ASCII'.

`ASM_OUTPUT_FDESC (STREAM, DECL, N)'
     A C statement to output word N of a function descriptor for DECL.
     This must be defined if `TARGET_VTABLE_USES_DESCRIPTORS' is
     defined, and is otherwise unused.

`CONSTANT_POOL_BEFORE_FUNCTION'
     You may define this macro as a C expression.  You should define the
     expression to have a nonzero value if GCC should output the
     constant pool for a function before the code for the function, or
     a zero value if GCC should output the constant pool after the
     function.  If you do not define this macro, the usual case, GCC
     will output the constant pool before the function.

`ASM_OUTPUT_POOL_PROLOGUE (FILE, FUNNAME, FUNDECL, SIZE)'
     A C statement to output assembler commands to define the start of
     the constant pool for a function.  FUNNAME is a string giving the
     name of the function.  Should the return type of the function be
     required, it can be obtained via FUNDECL.  SIZE is the size, in
     bytes, of the constant pool that will be written immediately after
     this call.

     If no constant-pool prefix is required, the usual case, this macro
     need not be defined.

`ASM_OUTPUT_SPECIAL_POOL_ENTRY (FILE, X, MODE, ALIGN, LABELNO, JUMPTO)'
     A C statement (with or without semicolon) to output a constant in
     the constant pool, if it needs special treatment.  (This macro
     need not do anything for RTL expressions that can be output
     normally.)

     The argument FILE is the standard I/O stream to output the
     assembler code on.  X is the RTL expression for the constant to
     output, and MODE is the machine mode (in case X is a `const_int').
     ALIGN is the required alignment for the value X; you should
     output an assembler directive to force this much alignment.

     The argument LABELNO is a number to use in an internal label for
     the address of this pool entry.  The definition of this macro is
     responsible for outputting the label definition at the proper
     place.  Here is how to do this:

          ASM_OUTPUT_INTERNAL_LABEL (FILE, "LC", LABELNO);

     When you output a pool entry specially, you should end with a
     `goto' to the label JUMPTO.  This will prevent the same pool entry
     from being output a second time in the usual manner.

     You need not define this macro if it would do nothing.

`CONSTANT_AFTER_FUNCTION_P (EXP)'
     Define this macro as a C expression which is nonzero if the
     constant EXP, of type `tree', should be output after the code for a
     function.  The compiler will normally output all constants before
     the function; you need not define this macro if this is OK.

`ASM_OUTPUT_POOL_EPILOGUE (FILE FUNNAME FUNDECL SIZE)'
     A C statement to output assembler commands to at the end of the
     constant pool for a function.  FUNNAME is a string giving the name
     of the function.  Should the return type of the function be
     required, you can obtain it via FUNDECL.  SIZE is the size, in
     bytes, of the constant pool that GCC wrote immediately before this
     call.

     If no constant-pool epilogue is required, the usual case, you need
     not define this macro.

`IS_ASM_LOGICAL_LINE_SEPARATOR (C)'
     Define this macro as a C expression which is nonzero if C is used
     as a logical line separator by the assembler.

     If you do not define this macro, the default is that only the
     character `;' is treated as a logical line separator.

 - Target Hook: const char * TARGET_ASM_OPEN_PAREN
 - Target Hook: const char * TARGET_ASM_CLOSE_PAREN
     These target hooks are C string constants, describing the syntax
     in the assembler for grouping arithmetic expressions.  If not
     overridden, they default to normal parentheses, which is correct
     for most assemblers.

   These macros are provided by `real.h' for writing the definitions of
`ASM_OUTPUT_DOUBLE' and the like:

`REAL_VALUE_TO_TARGET_SINGLE (X, L)'
`REAL_VALUE_TO_TARGET_DOUBLE (X, L)'
`REAL_VALUE_TO_TARGET_LONG_DOUBLE (X, L)'
     These translate X, of type `REAL_VALUE_TYPE', to the target's
     floating point representation, and store its bit pattern in the
     array of `long int' whose address is L.  The number of elements in
     the output array is determined by the size of the desired target
     floating point data type: 32 bits of it go in each `long int' array
     element.  Each array element holds 32 bits of the result, even if
     `long int' is wider than 32 bits on the host machine.

     The array element values are designed so that you can print them
     out using `fprintf' in the order they should appear in the target
     machine's memory.

`REAL_VALUE_TO_DECIMAL (X, FORMAT, STRING)'
     This macro converts X, of type `REAL_VALUE_TYPE', to a decimal
     number and stores it as a string into STRING.  You must pass, as
     STRING, the address of a long enough block of space to hold the
     result.

     The argument FORMAT is a `printf'-specification that serves as a
     suggestion for how to format the output string.

Output of Uninitialized Variables
---------------------------------

Each of the macros in this section is used to do the whole job of
outputting a single uninitialized variable.

`ASM_OUTPUT_COMMON (STREAM, NAME, SIZE, ROUNDED)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM the assembler definition of a common-label named NAME whose
     size is SIZE bytes.  The variable ROUNDED is the size rounded up
     to whatever alignment the caller wants.

     Use the expression `assemble_name (STREAM, NAME)' to output the
     name itself; before and after that, output the additional
     assembler syntax for defining the name, and a newline.

     This macro controls how the assembler definitions of uninitialized
     common global variables are output.

`ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_COMMON (STREAM, NAME, SIZE, ALIGNMENT)'
     Like `ASM_OUTPUT_COMMON' except takes the required alignment as a
     separate, explicit argument.  If you define this macro, it is used
     in place of `ASM_OUTPUT_COMMON', and gives you more flexibility in
     handling the required alignment of the variable.  The alignment is
     specified as the number of bits.

`ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_DECL_COMMON (STREAM, DECL, NAME, SIZE, ALIGNMENT)'
     Like `ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_COMMON' except that DECL of the variable
     to be output, if there is one, or `NULL_TREE' if there is no
     corresponding variable.  If you define this macro, GCC will use it
     in place of both `ASM_OUTPUT_COMMON' and
     `ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_COMMON'.  Define this macro when you need to
     see the variable's decl in order to chose what to output.

`ASM_OUTPUT_SHARED_COMMON (STREAM, NAME, SIZE, ROUNDED)'
     If defined, it is similar to `ASM_OUTPUT_COMMON', except that it
     is used when NAME is shared.  If not defined, `ASM_OUTPUT_COMMON'
     will be used.

`ASM_OUTPUT_BSS (STREAM, DECL, NAME, SIZE, ROUNDED)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM the assembler definition of uninitialized global DECL named
     NAME whose size is SIZE bytes.  The variable ROUNDED is the size
     rounded up to whatever alignment the caller wants.

     Try to use function `asm_output_bss' defined in `varasm.c' when
     defining this macro.  If unable, use the expression `assemble_name
     (STREAM, NAME)' to output the name itself; before and after that,
     output the additional assembler syntax for defining the name, and
     a newline.

     This macro controls how the assembler definitions of uninitialized
     global variables are output.  This macro exists to properly
     support languages like C++ which do not have `common' data.
     However, this macro currently is not defined for all targets.  If
     this macro and `ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_BSS' are not defined then
     `ASM_OUTPUT_COMMON' or `ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_COMMON' or
     `ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_DECL_COMMON' is used.

`ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_BSS (STREAM, DECL, NAME, SIZE, ALIGNMENT)'
     Like `ASM_OUTPUT_BSS' except takes the required alignment as a
     separate, explicit argument.  If you define this macro, it is used
     in place of `ASM_OUTPUT_BSS', and gives you more flexibility in
     handling the required alignment of the variable.  The alignment is
     specified as the number of bits.

     Try to use function `asm_output_aligned_bss' defined in file
     `varasm.c' when defining this macro.

`ASM_OUTPUT_SHARED_BSS (STREAM, DECL, NAME, SIZE, ROUNDED)'
     If defined, it is similar to `ASM_OUTPUT_BSS', except that it is
     used when NAME is shared.  If not defined, `ASM_OUTPUT_BSS' will
     be used.

`ASM_OUTPUT_LOCAL (STREAM, NAME, SIZE, ROUNDED)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM the assembler definition of a local-common-label named NAME
     whose size is SIZE bytes.  The variable ROUNDED is the size
     rounded up to whatever alignment the caller wants.

     Use the expression `assemble_name (STREAM, NAME)' to output the
     name itself; before and after that, output the additional
     assembler syntax for defining the name, and a newline.

     This macro controls how the assembler definitions of uninitialized
     static variables are output.

`ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_LOCAL (STREAM, NAME, SIZE, ALIGNMENT)'
     Like `ASM_OUTPUT_LOCAL' except takes the required alignment as a
     separate, explicit argument.  If you define this macro, it is used
     in place of `ASM_OUTPUT_LOCAL', and gives you more flexibility in
     handling the required alignment of the variable.  The alignment is
     specified as the number of bits.

`ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_DECL_LOCAL (STREAM, DECL, NAME, SIZE, ALIGNMENT)'
     Like `ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_DECL' except that DECL of the variable to
     be output, if there is one, or `NULL_TREE' if there is no
     corresponding variable.  If you define this macro, GCC will use it
     in place of both `ASM_OUTPUT_DECL' and `ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_DECL'.
     Define this macro when you need to see the variable's decl in
     order to chose what to output.

`ASM_OUTPUT_SHARED_LOCAL (STREAM, NAME, SIZE, ROUNDED)'
     If defined, it is similar to `ASM_OUTPUT_LOCAL', except that it is
     used when NAME is shared.  If not defined, `ASM_OUTPUT_LOCAL' will
     be used.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Label Output,  Next: Initialization,  Prev: Uninitialized Data,  Up: Assembler Format

Output and Generation of Labels
-------------------------------

This is about outputting labels.

`ASM_OUTPUT_LABEL (STREAM, NAME)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM the assembler definition of a label named NAME.  Use the
     expression `assemble_name (STREAM, NAME)' to output the name
     itself; before and after that, output the additional assembler
     syntax for defining the name, and a newline.

`ASM_DECLARE_FUNCTION_NAME (STREAM, NAME, DECL)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM any text necessary for declaring the name NAME of a
     function which is being defined.  This macro is responsible for
     outputting the label definition (perhaps using
     `ASM_OUTPUT_LABEL').  The argument DECL is the `FUNCTION_DECL'
     tree node representing the function.

     If this macro is not defined, then the function name is defined in
     the usual manner as a label (by means of `ASM_OUTPUT_LABEL').

`ASM_DECLARE_FUNCTION_SIZE (STREAM, NAME, DECL)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM any text necessary for declaring the size of a function
     which is being defined.  The argument NAME is the name of the
     function.  The argument DECL is the `FUNCTION_DECL' tree node
     representing the function.

     If this macro is not defined, then the function size is not
     defined.

`ASM_DECLARE_OBJECT_NAME (STREAM, NAME, DECL)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM any text necessary for declaring the name NAME of an
     initialized variable which is being defined.  This macro must
     output the label definition (perhaps using `ASM_OUTPUT_LABEL').
     The argument DECL is the `VAR_DECL' tree node representing the
     variable.

     If this macro is not defined, then the variable name is defined in
     the usual manner as a label (by means of `ASM_OUTPUT_LABEL').

`ASM_DECLARE_REGISTER_GLOBAL (STREAM, DECL, REGNO, NAME)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM any text necessary for claiming a register REGNO for a
     global variable DECL with name NAME.

     If you don't define this macro, that is equivalent to defining it
     to do nothing.

`ASM_FINISH_DECLARE_OBJECT (STREAM, DECL, TOPLEVEL, ATEND)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to finish up declaring a variable
     name once the compiler has processed its initializer fully and
     thus has had a chance to determine the size of an array when
     controlled by an initializer.  This is used on systems where it's
     necessary to declare something about the size of the object.

     If you don't define this macro, that is equivalent to defining it
     to do nothing.

`ASM_GLOBALIZE_LABEL (STREAM, NAME)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM some commands that will make the label NAME global; that
     is, available for reference from other files.  Use the expression
     `assemble_name (STREAM, NAME)' to output the name itself; before
     and after that, output the additional assembler syntax for making
     that name global, and a newline.

`ASM_WEAKEN_LABEL (STREAM, NAME)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM some commands that will make the label NAME weak; that is,
     available for reference from other files but only used if no other
     definition is available.  Use the expression `assemble_name
     (STREAM, NAME)' to output the name itself; before and after that,
     output the additional assembler syntax for making that name weak,
     and a newline.

     If you don't define this macro or `ASM_WEAKEN_DECL', GCC will not
     support weak symbols and you should not define the `SUPPORTS_WEAK'
     macro.

`ASM_WEAKEN_DECL (STREAM, DECL, NAME, VALUE)'
     Combines (and replaces) the function of `ASM_WEAKEN_LABEL' and
     `ASM_OUTPUT_WEAK_ALIAS', allowing access to the associated function
     or variable decl.  If VALUE is not `NULL', this C statement should
     output to the stdio stream STREAM assembler code which defines
     (equates) the weak symbol NAME to have the value VALUE.  If VALUE
     is `NULL', it should output commands to make NAME weak.

`SUPPORTS_WEAK'
     A C expression which evaluates to true if the target supports weak
     symbols.

     If you don't define this macro, `defaults.h' provides a default
     definition.  If either `ASM_WEAKEN_LABEL' or `ASM_WEAKEN_DECL' is
     defined, the default definition is `1'; otherwise, it is `0'.
     Define this macro if you want to control weak symbol support with
     a compiler flag such as `-melf'.

`MAKE_DECL_ONE_ONLY'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to mark DECL to be emitted as a
     public symbol such that extra copies in multiple translation units
     will be discarded by the linker.  Define this macro if your object
     file format provides support for this concept, such as the `COMDAT'
     section flags in the Microsoft Windows PE/COFF format, and this
     support requires changes to DECL, such as putting it in a separate
     section.

`SUPPORTS_ONE_ONLY'
     A C expression which evaluates to true if the target supports
     one-only semantics.

     If you don't define this macro, `varasm.c' provides a default
     definition.  If `MAKE_DECL_ONE_ONLY' is defined, the default
     definition is `1'; otherwise, it is `0'.  Define this macro if you
     want to control one-only symbol support with a compiler flag, or if
     setting the `DECL_ONE_ONLY' flag is enough to mark a declaration to
     be emitted as one-only.

`ASM_OUTPUT_EXTERNAL (STREAM, DECL, NAME)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM any text necessary for declaring the name of an external
     symbol named NAME which is referenced in this compilation but not
     defined.  The value of DECL is the tree node for the declaration.

     This macro need not be defined if it does not need to output
     anything.  The GNU assembler and most Unix assemblers don't
     require anything.

`ASM_OUTPUT_EXTERNAL_LIBCALL (STREAM, SYMREF)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output on STREAM an assembler
     pseudo-op to declare a library function name external.  The name
     of the library function is given by SYMREF, which has type `rtx'
     and is a `symbol_ref'.

     This macro need not be defined if it does not need to output
     anything.  The GNU assembler and most Unix assemblers don't
     require anything.

`ASM_OUTPUT_LABELREF (STREAM, NAME)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM a reference in assembler syntax to a label named NAME.
     This should add `_' to the front of the name, if that is customary
     on your operating system, as it is in most Berkeley Unix systems.
     This macro is used in `assemble_name'.

`ASM_OUTPUT_SYMBOL_REF (STREAM, SYM)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output a reference to
     `SYMBOL_REF' SYM.  If not defined, `assemble_name' will be used to
     output the name of the symbol.  This macro may be used to modify
     the way a symbol is referenced depending on information encoded by
     `ENCODE_SECTION_INFO'.

`ASM_OUTPUT_LABEL_REF (STREAM, BUF)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output a reference to BUF, the
     result of ASM_GENERATE_INTERNAL_LABEL.  If not defined,
     `assemble_name' will be used to output the name of the symbol.
     This macro is not used by `output_asm_label', or the `%l'
     specifier that calls it; the intention is that this macro should
     be set when it is necessary to output a label differently when its
     address is being taken.

`ASM_OUTPUT_INTERNAL_LABEL (STREAM, PREFIX, NUM)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM a label whose
     name is made from the string PREFIX and the number NUM.

     It is absolutely essential that these labels be distinct from the
     labels used for user-level functions and variables.  Otherwise,
     certain programs will have name conflicts with internal labels.

     It is desirable to exclude internal labels from the symbol table
     of the object file.  Most assemblers have a naming convention for
     labels that should be excluded; on many systems, the letter `L' at
     the beginning of a label has this effect.  You should find out what
     convention your system uses, and follow it.

     The usual definition of this macro is as follows:

          fprintf (STREAM, "L%s%d:\n", PREFIX, NUM)

`ASM_OUTPUT_DEBUG_LABEL (STREAM, PREFIX, NUM)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM a debug info
     label whose name is made from the string PREFIX and the number
     NUM.  This is useful for VLIW targets, where debug info labels may
     need to be treated differently than branch target labels.  On some
     systems, branch target labels must be at the beginning of
     instruction bundles, but debug info labels can occur in the middle
     of instruction bundles.

     If this macro is not defined, then `ASM_OUTPUT_INTERNAL_LABEL'
     will be used.

`ASM_OUTPUT_ALTERNATE_LABEL_NAME (STREAM, STRING)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM the string
     STRING.

     The default definition of this macro is as follows:

          fprintf (STREAM, "%s:\n", LABEL_ALTERNATE_NAME (INSN))

`ASM_GENERATE_INTERNAL_LABEL (STRING, PREFIX, NUM)'
     A C statement to store into the string STRING a label whose name
     is made from the string PREFIX and the number NUM.

     This string, when output subsequently by `assemble_name', should
     produce the output that `ASM_OUTPUT_INTERNAL_LABEL' would produce
     with the same PREFIX and NUM.

     If the string begins with `*', then `assemble_name' will output
     the rest of the string unchanged.  It is often convenient for
     `ASM_GENERATE_INTERNAL_LABEL' to use `*' in this way.  If the
     string doesn't start with `*', then `ASM_OUTPUT_LABELREF' gets to
     output the string, and may change it.  (Of course,
     `ASM_OUTPUT_LABELREF' is also part of your machine description, so
     you should know what it does on your machine.)

`ASM_FORMAT_PRIVATE_NAME (OUTVAR, NAME, NUMBER)'
     A C expression to assign to OUTVAR (which is a variable of type
     `char *') a newly allocated string made from the string NAME and
     the number NUMBER, with some suitable punctuation added.  Use
     `alloca' to get space for the string.

     The string will be used as an argument to `ASM_OUTPUT_LABELREF' to
     produce an assembler label for an internal static variable whose
     name is NAME.  Therefore, the string must be such as to result in
     valid assembler code.  The argument NUMBER is different each time
     this macro is executed; it prevents conflicts between
     similarly-named internal static variables in different scopes.

     Ideally this string should not be a valid C identifier, to prevent
     any conflict with the user's own symbols.  Most assemblers allow
     periods or percent signs in assembler symbols; putting at least
     one of these between the name and the number will suffice.

`ASM_OUTPUT_DEF (STREAM, NAME, VALUE)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM assembler code
     which defines (equates) the symbol NAME to have the value VALUE.

     If `SET_ASM_OP' is defined, a default definition is provided which
     is correct for most systems.

`ASM_OUTPUT_DEF_FROM_DECLS (STREAM, DECL_OF_NAME, DECL_OF_VALUE)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM assembler code
     which defines (equates) the symbol whose tree node is DECL_OF_NAME
     to have the value of the tree node DECL_OF_VALUE.  This macro will
     be used in preference to `ASM_OUTPUT_DEF' if it is defined and if
     the tree nodes are available.

`ASM_OUTPUT_DEFINE_LABEL_DIFFERENCE_SYMBOL (STREAM, SYMBOL, HIGH, LOW)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM assembler code
     which defines (equates) the symbol SYMBOL to have a value equal to
     the difference of the two symbols HIGH and LOW, i.e. HIGH minus
     LOW.  GCC guarantees that the symbols HIGH and LOW are already
     known by the assembler so that the difference resolves into a
     constant.

     If `SET_ASM_OP' is defined, a default definition is provided which
     is correct for most systems.

`ASM_OUTPUT_WEAK_ALIAS (STREAM, NAME, VALUE)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM assembler code
     which defines (equates) the weak symbol NAME to have the value
     VALUE.  If VALUE is `NULL', it defines NAME as an undefined weak
     symbol.

     Define this macro if the target only supports weak aliases; define
     `ASM_OUTPUT_DEF' instead if possible.

`OBJC_GEN_METHOD_LABEL (BUF, IS_INST, CLASS_NAME, CAT_NAME, SEL_NAME)'
     Define this macro to override the default assembler names used for
     Objective-C methods.

     The default name is a unique method number followed by the name of
     the class (e.g. `_1_Foo').  For methods in categories, the name of
     the category is also included in the assembler name (e.g.
     `_1_Foo_Bar').

     These names are safe on most systems, but make debugging difficult
     since the method's selector is not present in the name.
     Therefore, particular systems define other ways of computing names.

     BUF is an expression of type `char *' which gives you a buffer in
     which to store the name; its length is as long as CLASS_NAME,
     CAT_NAME and SEL_NAME put together, plus 50 characters extra.

     The argument IS_INST specifies whether the method is an instance
     method or a class method; CLASS_NAME is the name of the class;
     CAT_NAME is the name of the category (or `NULL' if the method is
     not in a category); and SEL_NAME is the name of the selector.

     On systems where the assembler can handle quoted names, you can
     use this macro to provide more human-readable names.

`ASM_DECLARE_CLASS_REFERENCE (STREAM, NAME)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM commands to declare that the label NAME is an Objective-C
     class reference.  This is only needed for targets whose linkers
     have special support for NeXT-style runtimes.

`ASM_DECLARE_UNRESOLVED_REFERENCE (STREAM, NAME)'
     A C statement (sans semicolon) to output to the stdio stream
     STREAM commands to declare that the label NAME is an unresolved
     Objective-C class reference.  This is only needed for targets
     whose linkers have special support for NeXT-style runtimes.

How Initialization Functions Are Handled
----------------------------------------

The compiled code for certain languages includes "constructors" (also
called "initialization routines")--functions to initialize data in the
program when the program is started.  These functions need to be called
before the program is "started"--that is to say, before `main' is
called.

   Compiling some languages generates "destructors" (also called
"termination routines") that should be called when the program
terminates.

   To make the initialization and termination functions work, the
compiler must output something in the assembler code to cause those
functions to be called at the appropriate time.  When you port the
compiler to a new system, you need to specify how to do this.

   There are two major ways that GCC currently supports the execution of
initialization and termination functions.  Each way has two variants.
Much of the structure is common to all four variations.

   The linker must build two lists of these functions--a list of
initialization functions, called `__CTOR_LIST__', and a list of
termination functions, called `__DTOR_LIST__'.

   Each list always begins with an ignored function pointer (which may
hold 0, -1, or a count of the function pointers after it, depending on
the environment).  This is followed by a series of zero or more function
pointers to constructors (or destructors), followed by a function
pointer containing zero.

   Depending on the operating system and its executable file format,
either `crtstuff.c' or `libgcc2.c' traverses these lists at startup
time and exit time.  Constructors are called in reverse order of the
list; destructors in forward order.

   The best way to handle static constructors works only for object file
formats which provide arbitrarily-named sections.  A section is set
aside for a list of constructors, and another for a list of destructors.
Traditionally these are called `.ctors' and `.dtors'.  Each object file
that defines an initialization function also puts a word in the
constructor section to point to that function.  The linker accumulates
all these words into one contiguous `.ctors' section.  Termination
functions are handled similarly.

   This method will be chosen as the default by `target-def.h' if
`TARGET_ASM_NAMED_SECTION' is defined.  A target that does not support
arbitrary sections, but does support special designated constructor and
destructor sections may define `CTORS_SECTION_ASM_OP' and
`DTORS_SECTION_ASM_OP' to achieve the same effect.

   When arbitrary sections are available, there are two variants,
depending upon how the code in `crtstuff.c' is called.  On systems that
support a ".init" section which is executed at program startup, parts
of `crtstuff.c' are compiled into that section.  The program is linked
by the `gcc' driver like this:

     ld -o OUTPUT_FILE crti.o crtbegin.o ... -lgcc crtend.o crtn.o

   The prologue of a function (`__init') appears in the `.init' section
of `crti.o'; the epilogue appears in `crtn.o'.  Likewise for the
function `__fini' in the ".fini" section.  Normally these files are
provided by the operating system or by the GNU C library, but are
provided by GCC for a few targets.

   The objects `crtbegin.o' and `crtend.o' are (for most targets)
compiled from `crtstuff.c'.  They contain, among other things, code
fragments within the `.init' and `.fini' sections that branch to
routines in the `.text' section.  The linker will pull all parts of a
section together, which results in a complete `__init' function that
invokes the routines we need at startup.

   To use this variant, you must define the `INIT_SECTION_ASM_OP' macro
properly.

   If no init section is available, when GCC compiles any function
called `main' (or more accurately, any function designated as a program
entry point by the language front end calling `expand_main_function'),
it inserts a procedure call to `__main' as the first executable code
after the function prologue.  The `__main' function is defined in
`libgcc2.c' and runs the global constructors.

   In file formats that don't support arbitrary sections, there are
again two variants.  In the simplest variant, the GNU linker (GNU `ld')
and an `a.out' format must be used.  In this case,
`TARGET_ASM_CONSTRUCTOR' is defined to produce a `.stabs' entry of type
`N_SETT', referencing the name `__CTOR_LIST__', and with the address of
the void function containing the initialization code as its value.  The
GNU linker recognizes this as a request to add the value to a "set";
the values are accumulated, and are eventually placed in the executable
as a vector in the format described above, with a leading (ignored)
count and a trailing zero element.  `TARGET_ASM_DESTRUCTOR' is handled
similarly.  Since no init section is available, the absence of
`INIT_SECTION_ASM_OP' causes the compilation of `main' to call `__main'
as above, starting the initialization process.

   The last variant uses neither arbitrary sections nor the GNU linker.
This is preferable when you want to do dynamic linking and when using
file formats which the GNU linker does not support, such as `ECOFF'.  In
this case, `TARGET_HAVE_CTORS_DTORS' is false, initialization and
termination functions are recognized simply by their names.  This
requires an extra program in the linkage step, called `collect2'.  This
program pretends to be the linker, for use with GCC; it does its job by
running the ordinary linker, but also arranges to include the vectors of
initialization and termination functions.  These functions are called
via `__main' as described above.  In order to use this method,
`use_collect2' must be defined in the target in `config.gcc'.

   The following section describes the specific macros that control and
customize the handling of initialization and termination functions.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Macros for Initialization,  Next: Instruction Output,  Prev: Initialization,  Up: Assembler Format

Macros Controlling Initialization Routines
------------------------------------------

Here are the macros that control how the compiler handles initialization
and termination functions:

`INIT_SECTION_ASM_OP'
     If defined, a C string constant, including spacing, for the
     assembler operation to identify the following data as
     initialization code.  If not defined, GCC will assume such a
     section does not exist.  When you are using special sections for
     initialization and termination functions, this macro also controls
     how `crtstuff.c' and `libgcc2.c' arrange to run the initialization
     functions.

`HAS_INIT_SECTION'
     If defined, `main' will not call `__main' as described above.
     This macro should be defined for systems that control start-up code
     on a symbol-by-symbol basis, such as OSF/1, and should not be
     defined explicitly for systems that support `INIT_SECTION_ASM_OP'.

`LD_INIT_SWITCH'
     If defined, a C string constant for a switch that tells the linker
     that the following symbol is an initialization routine.

`LD_FINI_SWITCH'
     If defined, a C string constant for a switch that tells the linker
     that the following symbol is a finalization routine.

`COLLECT_SHARED_INIT_FUNC (STREAM, FUNC)'
     If defined, a C statement that will write a function that can be
     automatically called when a shared library is loaded.  The function
     should call FUNC, which takes no arguments.  If not defined, and
     the object format requires an explicit initialization function,
     then a function called `_GLOBAL__DI' will be generated.

     This function and the following one are used by collect2 when
     linking a shared library that needs constructors or destructors,
     or has DWARF2 exception tables embedded in the code.

`COLLECT_SHARED_FINI_FUNC (STREAM, FUNC)'
     If defined, a C statement that will write a function that can be
     automatically called when a shared library is unloaded.  The
     function should call FUNC, which takes no arguments.  If not
     defined, and the object format requires an explicit finalization
     function, then a function called `_GLOBAL__DD' will be generated.

`INVOKE__main'
     If defined, `main' will call `__main' despite the presence of
     `INIT_SECTION_ASM_OP'.  This macro should be defined for systems
     where the init section is not actually run automatically, but is
     still useful for collecting the lists of constructors and
     destructors.

`SUPPORTS_INIT_PRIORITY'
     If nonzero, the C++ `init_priority' attribute is supported and the
     compiler should emit instructions to control the order of
     initialization of objects.  If zero, the compiler will issue an
     error message upon encountering an `init_priority' attribute.

 - Target Hook: bool TARGET_HAVE_CTORS_DTORS
     This value is true if the target supports some "native" method of
     collecting constructors and destructors to be run at startup and
     exit.  It is false if we must use `collect2'.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_ASM_CONSTRUCTOR (rtx SYMBOL, int PRIORITY)
     If defined, a function that outputs assembler code to arrange to
     call the function referenced by SYMBOL at initialization time.

     Assume that SYMBOL is a `SYMBOL_REF' for a function taking no
     arguments and with no return value.  If the target supports
     initialization priorities, PRIORITY is a value between 0 and
     `MAX_INIT_PRIORITY'; otherwise it must be `DEFAULT_INIT_PRIORITY'.

     If this macro is not defined by the target, a suitable default will
     be chosen if (1) the target supports arbitrary section names, (2)
     the target defines `CTORS_SECTION_ASM_OP', or (3) `USE_COLLECT2'
     is not defined.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_ASM_DESTRUCTOR (rtx SYMBOL, int PRIORITY)
     This is like `TARGET_ASM_CONSTRUCTOR' but used for termination
     functions rather than initialization functions.

   If `TARGET_HAVE_CTORS_DTORS' is true, the initialization routine
generated for the generated object file will have static linkage.

   If your system uses `collect2' as the means of processing
constructors, then that program normally uses `nm' to scan an object
file for constructor functions to be called.

   On certain kinds of systems, you can define these macros to make
`collect2' work faster (and, in some cases, make it work at all):

`OBJECT_FORMAT_COFF'
     Define this macro if the system uses COFF (Common Object File
     Format) object files, so that `collect2' can assume this format
     and scan object files directly for dynamic constructor/destructor
     functions.

`OBJECT_FORMAT_ROSE'
     Define this macro if the system uses ROSE format object files, so
     that `collect2' can assume this format and scan object files
     directly for dynamic constructor/destructor functions.

     These macros are effective only in a native compiler; `collect2' as
     part of a cross compiler always uses `nm' for the target machine.

`REAL_NM_FILE_NAME'
     Define this macro as a C string constant containing the file name
     to use to execute `nm'.  The default is to search the path
     normally for `nm'.

     If your system supports shared libraries and has a program to list
     the dynamic dependencies of a given library or executable, you can
     define these macros to enable support for running initialization
     and termination functions in shared libraries:

`LDD_SUFFIX'
     Define this macro to a C string constant containing the name of
     the program which lists dynamic dependencies, like `"ldd"' under
     SunOS 4.

`PARSE_LDD_OUTPUT (PTR)'
     Define this macro to be C code that extracts filenames from the
     output of the program denoted by `LDD_SUFFIX'.  PTR is a variable
     of type `char *' that points to the beginning of a line of output
     from `LDD_SUFFIX'.  If the line lists a dynamic dependency, the
     code must advance PTR to the beginning of the filename on that
     line.  Otherwise, it must set PTR to `NULL'.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Instruction Output,  Next: Dispatch Tables,  Prev: Macros for Initialization,  Up: Assembler Format

Output of Assembler Instructions
--------------------------------

This describes assembler instruction output.

`REGISTER_NAMES'
     A C initializer containing the assembler's names for the machine
     registers, each one as a C string constant.  This is what
     translates register numbers in the compiler into assembler
     language.

`ADDITIONAL_REGISTER_NAMES'
     If defined, a C initializer for an array of structures containing
     a name and a register number.  This macro defines additional names
     for hard registers, thus allowing the `asm' option in declarations
     to refer to registers using alternate names.

`ASM_OUTPUT_OPCODE (STREAM, PTR)'
     Define this macro if you are using an unusual assembler that
     requires different names for the machine instructions.

     The definition is a C statement or statements which output an
     assembler instruction opcode to the stdio stream STREAM.  The
     macro-operand PTR is a variable of type `char *' which points to
     the opcode name in its "internal" form--the form that is written
     in the machine description.  The definition should output the
     opcode name to STREAM, performing any translation you desire, and
     increment the variable PTR to point at the end of the opcode so
     that it will not be output twice.

     In fact, your macro definition may process less than the entire
     opcode name, or more than the opcode name; but if you want to
     process text that includes `%'-sequences to substitute operands,
     you must take care of the substitution yourself.  Just be sure to
     increment PTR over whatever text should not be output normally.

     If you need to look at the operand values, they can be found as the
     elements of `recog_data.operand'.

     If the macro definition does nothing, the instruction is output in
     the usual way.

`FINAL_PRESCAN_INSN (INSN, OPVEC, NOPERANDS)'
     If defined, a C statement to be executed just prior to the output
     of assembler code for INSN, to modify the extracted operands so
     they will be output differently.

     Here the argument OPVEC is the vector containing the operands
     extracted from INSN, and NOPERANDS is the number of elements of
     the vector which contain meaningful data for this insn.  The
     contents of this vector are what will be used to convert the insn
     template into assembler code, so you can change the assembler
     output by changing the contents of the vector.

     This macro is useful when various assembler syntaxes share a single
     file of instruction patterns; by defining this macro differently,
     you can cause a large class of instructions to be output
     differently (such as with rearranged operands).  Naturally,
     variations in assembler syntax affecting individual insn patterns
     ought to be handled by writing conditional output routines in
     those patterns.

     If this macro is not defined, it is equivalent to a null statement.

`FINAL_PRESCAN_LABEL'
     If defined, `FINAL_PRESCAN_INSN' will be called on each
     `CODE_LABEL'.  In that case, OPVEC will be a null pointer and
     NOPERANDS will be zero.

`PRINT_OPERAND (STREAM, X, CODE)'
     A C compound statement to output to stdio stream STREAM the
     assembler syntax for an instruction operand X.  X is an RTL
     expression.

     CODE is a value that can be used to specify one of several ways of
     printing the operand.  It is used when identical operands must be
     printed differently depending on the context.  CODE comes from the
     `%' specification that was used to request printing of the
     operand.  If the specification was just `%DIGIT' then CODE is 0;
     if the specification was `%LTR DIGIT' then CODE is the ASCII code
     for LTR.

     If X is a register, this macro should print the register's name.
     The names can be found in an array `reg_names' whose type is `char
     *[]'.  `reg_names' is initialized from `REGISTER_NAMES'.

     When the machine description has a specification `%PUNCT' (a `%'
     followed by a punctuation character), this macro is called with a
     null pointer for X and the punctuation character for CODE.

`PRINT_OPERAND_PUNCT_VALID_P (CODE)'
     A C expression which evaluates to true if CODE is a valid
     punctuation character for use in the `PRINT_OPERAND' macro.  If
     `PRINT_OPERAND_PUNCT_VALID_P' is not defined, it means that no
     punctuation characters (except for the standard one, `%') are used
     in this way.

`PRINT_OPERAND_ADDRESS (STREAM, X)'
     A C compound statement to output to stdio stream STREAM the
     assembler syntax for an instruction operand that is a memory
     reference whose address is X.  X is an RTL expression.

     On some machines, the syntax for a symbolic address depends on the
     section that the address refers to.  On these machines, define the
     macro `ENCODE_SECTION_INFO' to store the information into the
     `symbol_ref', and then check for it here.  *Note Assembler
     Format::.

`DBR_OUTPUT_SEQEND(FILE)'
     A C statement, to be executed after all slot-filler instructions
     have been output.  If necessary, call `dbr_sequence_length' to
     determine the number of slots filled in a sequence (zero if not
     currently outputting a sequence), to decide how many no-ops to
     output, or whatever.

     Don't define this macro if it has nothing to do, but it is helpful
     in reading assembly output if the extent of the delay sequence is
     made explicit (e.g. with white space).

     Note that output routines for instructions with delay slots must be
     prepared to deal with not being output as part of a sequence (i.e.
     when the scheduling pass is not run, or when no slot fillers could
     be found.)  The variable `final_sequence' is null when not
     processing a sequence, otherwise it contains the `sequence' rtx
     being output.

`REGISTER_PREFIX'
`LOCAL_LABEL_PREFIX'
`USER_LABEL_PREFIX'
`IMMEDIATE_PREFIX'
     If defined, C string expressions to be used for the `%R', `%L',
     `%U', and `%I' options of `asm_fprintf' (see `final.c').  These
     are useful when a single `md' file must support multiple assembler
     formats.  In that case, the various `tm.h' files can define these
     macros differently.

`ASM_FPRINTF_EXTENSIONS(FILE, ARGPTR, FORMAT)'
     If defined this macro should expand to a series of `case'
     statements which will be parsed inside the `switch' statement of
     the `asm_fprintf' function.  This allows targets to define extra
     printf formats which may useful when generating their assembler
     statements.  Note that upper case letters are reserved for future
     generic extensions to asm_fprintf, and so are not available to
     target specific code.  The output file is given by the parameter
     FILE.  The varargs input pointer is ARGPTR and the rest of the
     format string, starting the character after the one that is being
     switched upon, is pointed to by FORMAT.

`ASSEMBLER_DIALECT'
     If your target supports multiple dialects of assembler language
     (such as different opcodes), define this macro as a C expression
     that gives the numeric index of the assembler language dialect to
     use, with zero as the first variant.

     If this macro is defined, you may use constructs of the form
          `{option0|option1|option2...}'

     in the output templates of patterns (*note Output Template::) or
     in the first argument of `asm_fprintf'.  This construct outputs
     `option0', `option1', `option2', etc., if the value of
     `ASSEMBLER_DIALECT' is zero, one, two, etc.  Any special characters
     within these strings retain their usual meaning.  If there are
     fewer alternatives within the braces than the value of
     `ASSEMBLER_DIALECT', the construct outputs nothing.

     If you do not define this macro, the characters `{', `|' and `}'
     do not have any special meaning when used in templates or operands
     to `asm_fprintf'.

     Define the macros `REGISTER_PREFIX', `LOCAL_LABEL_PREFIX',
     `USER_LABEL_PREFIX' and `IMMEDIATE_PREFIX' if you can express the
     variations in assembler language syntax with that mechanism.
     Define `ASSEMBLER_DIALECT' and use the `{option0|option1}' syntax
     if the syntax variant are larger and involve such things as
     different opcodes or operand order.

`ASM_OUTPUT_REG_PUSH (STREAM, REGNO)'
     A C expression to output to STREAM some assembler code which will
     push hard register number REGNO onto the stack.  The code need not
     be optimal, since this macro is used only when profiling.

`ASM_OUTPUT_REG_POP (STREAM, REGNO)'
     A C expression to output to STREAM some assembler code which will
     pop hard register number REGNO off of the stack.  The code need
     not be optimal, since this macro is used only when profiling.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Dispatch Tables,  Next: Exception Region Output,  Prev: Instruction Output,  Up: Assembler Format

Output of Dispatch Tables
-------------------------

This concerns dispatch tables.

`ASM_OUTPUT_ADDR_DIFF_ELT (STREAM, BODY, VALUE, REL)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM an assembler
     pseudo-instruction to generate a difference between two labels.
     VALUE and REL are the numbers of two internal labels.  The
     definitions of these labels are output using
     `ASM_OUTPUT_INTERNAL_LABEL', and they must be printed in the same
     way here.  For example,

          fprintf (STREAM, "\t.word L%d-L%d\n",
                   VALUE, REL)

     You must provide this macro on machines where the addresses in a
     dispatch table are relative to the table's own address.  If
     defined, GCC will also use this macro on all machines when
     producing PIC.  BODY is the body of the `ADDR_DIFF_VEC'; it is
     provided so that the mode and flags can be read.

`ASM_OUTPUT_ADDR_VEC_ELT (STREAM, VALUE)'
     This macro should be provided on machines where the addresses in a
     dispatch table are absolute.

     The definition should be a C statement to output to the stdio
     stream STREAM an assembler pseudo-instruction to generate a
     reference to a label.  VALUE is the number of an internal label
     whose definition is output using `ASM_OUTPUT_INTERNAL_LABEL'.  For
     example,

          fprintf (STREAM, "\t.word L%d\n", VALUE)

`ASM_OUTPUT_CASE_LABEL (STREAM, PREFIX, NUM, TABLE)'
     Define this if the label before a jump-table needs to be output
     specially.  The first three arguments are the same as for
     `ASM_OUTPUT_INTERNAL_LABEL'; the fourth argument is the jump-table
     which follows (a `jump_insn' containing an `addr_vec' or
     `addr_diff_vec').

     This feature is used on system V to output a `swbeg' statement for
     the table.

     If this macro is not defined, these labels are output with
     `ASM_OUTPUT_INTERNAL_LABEL'.

`ASM_OUTPUT_CASE_END (STREAM, NUM, TABLE)'
     Define this if something special must be output at the end of a
     jump-table.  The definition should be a C statement to be executed
     after the assembler code for the table is written.  It should write
     the appropriate code to stdio stream STREAM.  The argument TABLE
     is the jump-table insn, and NUM is the label-number of the
     preceding label.

     If this macro is not defined, nothing special is output at the end
     of the jump-table.

Assembler Commands for Exception Regions
----------------------------------------

This describes commands marking the start and the end of an exception
region.

`EH_FRAME_SECTION_NAME'
     If defined, a C string constant for the name of the section
     containing exception handling frame unwind information.  If not
     defined, GCC will provide a default definition if the target
     supports named sections.  `crtstuff.c' uses this macro to switch
     to the appropriate section.

     You should define this symbol if your target supports DWARF 2 frame
     unwind information and the default definition does not work.

`EH_FRAME_IN_DATA_SECTION'
     If defined, DWARF 2 frame unwind information will be placed in the
     data section even though the target supports named sections.  This
     might be necessary, for instance, if the system linker does garbage
     collection and sections cannot be marked as not to be collected.

     Do not define this macro unless `TARGET_ASM_NAMED_SECTION' is also
     defined.

`MASK_RETURN_ADDR'
     An rtx used to mask the return address found via
     `RETURN_ADDR_RTX', so that it does not contain any extraneous set
     bits in it.

`DWARF2_UNWIND_INFO'
     Define this macro to 0 if your target supports DWARF 2 frame unwind
     information, but it does not yet work with exception handling.
     Otherwise, if your target supports this information (if it defines
     `INCOMING_RETURN_ADDR_RTX' and either `UNALIGNED_INT_ASM_OP' or
     `OBJECT_FORMAT_ELF'), GCC will provide a default definition of 1.

     If this macro is defined to 1, the DWARF 2 unwinder will be the
     default exception handling mechanism; otherwise,
     `setjmp'/`longjmp' will be used by default.

     If this macro is defined to anything, the DWARF 2 unwinder will be
     used instead of inline unwinders and `__unwind_function' in the
     non-`setjmp' case.

`DWARF_CIE_DATA_ALIGNMENT'
     This macro need only be defined if the target might save registers
     in the function prologue at an offset to the stack pointer that is
     not aligned to `UNITS_PER_WORD'.  The definition should be the
     negative minimum alignment if `STACK_GROWS_DOWNWARD' is defined,
     and the positive minimum alignment otherwise.  *Note SDB and
     DWARF::.  Only applicable if the target supports DWARF 2 frame
     unwind information.


 - Target Hook: void TARGET_ASM_EXCEPTION_SECTION ()
     If defined, a function that switches to the section in which the
     main exception table is to be placed (*note Sections::).  The
     default is a function that switches to a section named
     `.gcc_except_table' on machines that support named sections via
     `TARGET_ASM_NAMED_SECTION', otherwise if `-fpic' or `-fPIC' is in
     effect, the `data_section', otherwise the `readonly_data_section'.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_ASM_EH_FRAME_SECTION ()
     If defined, a function that switches to the section in which the
     DWARF 2 frame unwind information to be placed (*note Sections::).
     The default is a function that outputs a standard GAS section
     directive, if `EH_FRAME_SECTION_NAME' is defined, or else a data
     section directive followed by a synthetic label.

Assembler Commands for Alignment
--------------------------------

This describes commands for alignment.

`JUMP_ALIGN (LABEL)'
     The alignment (log base 2) to put in front of LABEL, which is a
     common destination of jumps and has no fallthru incoming edge.

     This macro need not be defined if you don't want any special
     alignment to be done at such a time.  Most machine descriptions do
     not currently define the macro.

     Unless it's necessary to inspect the LABEL parameter, it is better
     to set the variable ALIGN_JUMPS in the target's
     `OVERRIDE_OPTIONS'.  Otherwise, you should try to honor the user's
     selection in ALIGN_JUMPS in a `JUMP_ALIGN' implementation.

`LABEL_ALIGN_AFTER_BARRIER (LABEL)'
     The alignment (log base 2) to put in front of LABEL, which follows
     a `BARRIER'.

     This macro need not be defined if you don't want any special
     alignment to be done at such a time.  Most machine descriptions do
     not currently define the macro.

`LABEL_ALIGN_AFTER_BARRIER_MAX_SKIP'
     The maximum number of bytes to skip when applying
     `LABEL_ALIGN_AFTER_BARRIER'.  This works only if
     `ASM_OUTPUT_MAX_SKIP_ALIGN' is defined.

`LOOP_ALIGN (LABEL)'
     The alignment (log base 2) to put in front of LABEL, which follows
     a `NOTE_INSN_LOOP_BEG' note.

     This macro need not be defined if you don't want any special
     alignment to be done at such a time.  Most machine descriptions do
     not currently define the macro.

     Unless it's necessary to inspect the LABEL parameter, it is better
     to set the variable `align_loops' in the target's
     `OVERRIDE_OPTIONS'.  Otherwise, you should try to honor the user's
     selection in `align_loops' in a `LOOP_ALIGN' implementation.

`LOOP_ALIGN_MAX_SKIP'
     The maximum number of bytes to skip when applying `LOOP_ALIGN'.
     This works only if `ASM_OUTPUT_MAX_SKIP_ALIGN' is defined.

`LABEL_ALIGN (LABEL)'
     The alignment (log base 2) to put in front of LABEL.  If
     `LABEL_ALIGN_AFTER_BARRIER' / `LOOP_ALIGN' specify a different
     alignment, the maximum of the specified values is used.

     Unless it's necessary to inspect the LABEL parameter, it is better
     to set the variable `align_labels' in the target's
     `OVERRIDE_OPTIONS'.  Otherwise, you should try to honor the user's
     selection in `align_labels' in a `LABEL_ALIGN' implementation.

`LABEL_ALIGN_MAX_SKIP'
     The maximum number of bytes to skip when applying `LABEL_ALIGN'.
     This works only if `ASM_OUTPUT_MAX_SKIP_ALIGN' is defined.

`ASM_OUTPUT_SKIP (STREAM, NBYTES)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM an assembler
     instruction to advance the location counter by NBYTES bytes.
     Those bytes should be zero when loaded.  NBYTES will be a C
     expression of type `int'.

`ASM_NO_SKIP_IN_TEXT'
     Define this macro if `ASM_OUTPUT_SKIP' should not be used in the
     text section because it fails to put zeros in the bytes that are
     skipped.  This is true on many Unix systems, where the pseudo-op
     to skip bytes produces no-op instructions rather than zeros when
     used in the text section.

`ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGN (STREAM, POWER)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM an assembler
     command to advance the location counter to a multiple of 2 to the
     POWER bytes.  POWER will be a C expression of type `int'.

`ASM_OUTPUT_MAX_SKIP_ALIGN (STREAM, POWER, MAX_SKIP)'
     A C statement to output to the stdio stream STREAM an assembler
     command to advance the location counter to a multiple of 2 to the
     POWER bytes, but only if MAX_SKIP or fewer bytes are needed to
     satisfy the alignment request.  POWER and MAX_SKIP will be a C
     expression of type `int'.

File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: All Debuggers,  Next: DBX Options,  Up: Debugging Info

Macros Affecting All Debugging Formats
--------------------------------------

These macros affect all debugging formats.

`DBX_REGISTER_NUMBER (REGNO)'
     A C expression that returns the DBX register number for the
     compiler register number REGNO.  In the default macro provided,
     the value of this expression will be REGNO itself.  But sometimes
     there are some registers that the compiler knows about and DBX
     does not, or vice versa.  In such cases, some register may need to
     have one number in the compiler and another for DBX.

     If two registers have consecutive numbers inside GCC, and they can
     be used as a pair to hold a multiword value, then they _must_ have
     consecutive numbers after renumbering with `DBX_REGISTER_NUMBER'.
     Otherwise, debuggers will be unable to access such a pair, because
     they expect register pairs to be consecutive in their own
     numbering scheme.

     If you find yourself defining `DBX_REGISTER_NUMBER' in way that
     does not preserve register pairs, then what you must do instead is
     redefine the actual register numbering scheme.

`DEBUGGER_AUTO_OFFSET (X)'
     A C expression that returns the integer offset value for an
     automatic variable having address X (an RTL expression).  The
     default computation assumes that X is based on the frame-pointer
     and gives the offset from the frame-pointer.  This is required for
     targets that produce debugging output for DBX or COFF-style
     debugging output for SDB and allow the frame-pointer to be
     eliminated when the `-g' options is used.

`DEBUGGER_ARG_OFFSET (OFFSET, X)'
     A C expression that returns the integer offset value for an
     argument having address X (an RTL expression).  The nominal offset
     is OFFSET.

`PREFERRED_DEBUGGING_TYPE'
     A C expression that returns the type of debugging output GCC should
     produce when the user specifies just `-g'.  Define this if you
     have arranged for GCC to support more than one format of debugging
     output.  Currently, the allowable values are `DBX_DEBUG',
     `SDB_DEBUG', `DWARF_DEBUG', `DWARF2_DEBUG', `XCOFF_DEBUG',
     `VMS_DEBUG', and `VMS_AND_DWARF2_DEBUG'.

     When the user specifies `-ggdb', GCC normally also uses the value
     of this macro to select the debugging output format, but with two
     exceptions.  If `DWARF2_DEBUGGING_INFO' is defined and
     `LINKER_DOES_NOT_WORK_WITH_DWARF2' is not defined, GCC uses the
     value `DWARF2_DEBUG'.  Otherwise, if `DBX_DEBUGGING_INFO' is
     defined, GCC uses `DBX_DEBUG'.

     The value of this macro only affects the default debugging output;
     the user can always get a specific type of output by using
     `-gstabs', `-gcoff', `-gdwarf-1', `-gdwarf-2', `-gxcoff', or
     `-gvms'.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: DBX Options,  Next: DBX Hooks,  Prev: All Debuggers,  Up: Debugging Info

Specific Options for DBX Output
-------------------------------

These are specific options for DBX output.

`DBX_DEBUGGING_INFO'
     Define this macro if GCC should produce debugging output for DBX
     in response to the `-g' option.

`XCOFF_DEBUGGING_INFO'
     Define this macro if GCC should produce XCOFF format debugging
     output in response to the `-g' option.  This is a variant of DBX
     format.

`DEFAULT_GDB_EXTENSIONS'
     Define this macro to control whether GCC should by default generate
     GDB's extended version of DBX debugging information (assuming
     DBX-format debugging information is enabled at all).  If you don't
     define the macro, the default is 1: always generate the extended
     information if there is any occasion to.

`DEBUG_SYMS_TEXT'
     Define this macro if all `.stabs' commands should be output while
     in the text section.

`ASM_STABS_OP'
     A C string constant, including spacing, naming the assembler
     pseudo op to use instead of `"\t.stabs\t"' to define an ordinary
     debugging symbol.  If you don't define this macro, `"\t.stabs\t"'
     is used.  This macro applies only to DBX debugging information
     format.

`ASM_STABD_OP'
     A C string constant, including spacing, naming the assembler
     pseudo op to use instead of `"\t.stabd\t"' to define a debugging
     symbol whose value is the current location.  If you don't define
     this macro, `"\t.stabd\t"' is used.  This macro applies only to
     DBX debugging information format.

`ASM_STABN_OP'
     A C string constant, including spacing, naming the assembler
     pseudo op to use instead of `"\t.stabn\t"' to define a debugging
     symbol with no name.  If you don't define this macro,
     `"\t.stabn\t"' is used.  This macro applies only to DBX debugging
     information format.

`DBX_NO_XREFS'
     Define this macro if DBX on your system does not support the
     construct `xsTAGNAME'.  On some systems, this construct is used to
     describe a forward reference to a structure named TAGNAME.  On
     other systems, this construct is not supported at all.

`DBX_CONTIN_LENGTH'
     A symbol name in DBX-format debugging information is normally
     continued (split into two separate `.stabs' directives) when it
     exceeds a certain length (by default, 80 characters).  On some
     operating systems, DBX requires this splitting; on others,
     splitting must not be done.  You can inhibit splitting by defining
     this macro with the value zero.  You can override the default
     splitting-length by defining this macro as an expression for the
     length you desire.

`DBX_CONTIN_CHAR'
     Normally continuation is indicated by adding a `\' character to
     the end of a `.stabs' string when a continuation follows.  To use
     a different character instead, define this macro as a character
     constant for the character you want to use.  Do not define this
     macro if backslash is correct for your system.

`DBX_STATIC_STAB_DATA_SECTION'
     Define this macro if it is necessary to go to the data section
     before outputting the `.stabs' pseudo-op for a non-global static
     variable.

`DBX_TYPE_DECL_STABS_CODE'
     The value to use in the "code" field of the `.stabs' directive for
     a typedef.  The default is `N_LSYM'.

`DBX_STATIC_CONST_VAR_CODE'
     The value to use in the "code" field of the `.stabs' directive for
     a static variable located in the text section.  DBX format does not
     provide any "right" way to do this.  The default is `N_FUN'.

`DBX_REGPARM_STABS_CODE'
     The value to use in the "code" field of the `.stabs' directive for
     a parameter passed in registers.  DBX format does not provide any
     "right" way to do this.  The default is `N_RSYM'.

`DBX_REGPARM_STABS_LETTER'
     The letter to use in DBX symbol data to identify a symbol as a
     parameter passed in registers.  DBX format does not customarily
     provide any way to do this.  The default is `'P''.

`DBX_MEMPARM_STABS_LETTER'
     The letter to use in DBX symbol data to identify a symbol as a
     stack parameter.  The default is `'p''.

`DBX_FUNCTION_FIRST'
     Define this macro if the DBX information for a function and its
     arguments should precede the assembler code for the function.
     Normally, in DBX format, the debugging information entirely
     follows the assembler code.

`DBX_LBRAC_FIRST'
     Define this macro if the `N_LBRAC' symbol for a block should
     precede the debugging information for variables and functions
     defined in that block.  Normally, in DBX format, the `N_LBRAC'
     symbol comes first.

`DBX_BLOCKS_FUNCTION_RELATIVE'
     Define this macro if the value of a symbol describing the scope of
     a block (`N_LBRAC' or `N_RBRAC') should be relative to the start
     of the enclosing function.  Normally, GCC uses an absolute address.

`DBX_USE_BINCL'
     Define this macro if GCC should generate `N_BINCL' and `N_EINCL'
     stabs for included header files, as on Sun systems.  This macro
     also directs GCC to output a type number as a pair of a file
     number and a type number within the file.  Normally, GCC does not
     generate `N_BINCL' or `N_EINCL' stabs, and it outputs a single
     number for a type number.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: DBX Hooks,  Next: File Names and DBX,  Prev: DBX Options,  Up: Debugging Info

Open-Ended Hooks for DBX Format
-------------------------------

These are hooks for DBX format.

`DBX_OUTPUT_LBRAC (STREAM, NAME)'
     Define this macro to say how to output to STREAM the debugging
     information for the start of a scope level for variable names.  The
     argument NAME is the name of an assembler symbol (for use with
     `assemble_name') whose value is the address where the scope begins.

`DBX_OUTPUT_RBRAC (STREAM, NAME)'
     Like `DBX_OUTPUT_LBRAC', but for the end of a scope level.

`DBX_OUTPUT_NFUN (STREAM, LSCOPE_LABEL, DECL)'
     Define this macro if the target machine requires special handling
     to output an `N_FUN' entry for the function DECL.

`DBX_OUTPUT_ENUM (STREAM, TYPE)'
     Define this macro if the target machine requires special handling
     to output an enumeration type.  The definition should be a C
     statement (sans semicolon) to output the appropriate information
     to STREAM for the type TYPE.

`DBX_OUTPUT_FUNCTION_END (STREAM, FUNCTION)'
     Define this macro if the target machine requires special output at
     the end of the debugging information for a function.  The
     definition should be a C statement (sans semicolon) to output the
     appropriate information to STREAM.  FUNCTION is the
     `FUNCTION_DECL' node for the function.

`DBX_OUTPUT_STANDARD_TYPES (SYMS)'
     Define this macro if you need to control the order of output of the
     standard data types at the beginning of compilation.  The argument
     SYMS is a `tree' which is a chain of all the predefined global
     symbols, including names of data types.

     Normally, DBX output starts with definitions of the types for
     integers and characters, followed by all the other predefined
     types of the particular language in no particular order.

     On some machines, it is necessary to output different particular
     types first.  To do this, define `DBX_OUTPUT_STANDARD_TYPES' to
     output those symbols in the necessary order.  Any predefined types
     that you don't explicitly output will be output afterward in no
     particular order.

     Be careful not to define this macro so that it works only for C.
     There are no global variables to access most of the built-in
     types, because another language may have another set of types.
     The way to output a particular type is to look through SYMS to see
     if you can find it.  Here is an example:

          {
            tree decl;
            for (decl = syms; decl; decl = TREE_CHAIN (decl))
              if (!strcmp (IDENTIFIER_POINTER (DECL_NAME (decl)),
                           "long int"))
                dbxout_symbol (decl);
            ...
          }

     This does nothing if the expected type does not exist.

     See the function `init_decl_processing' in `c-decl.c' to find the
     names to use for all the built-in C types.

     Here is another way of finding a particular type:

          {
            tree decl;
            for (decl = syms; decl; decl = TREE_CHAIN (decl))
              if (TREE_CODE (decl) == TYPE_DECL
                  && (TREE_CODE (TREE_TYPE (decl))
                      == INTEGER_CST)
                  && TYPE_PRECISION (TREE_TYPE (decl)) == 16
                  && TYPE_UNSIGNED (TREE_TYPE (decl)))
                /* This must be `unsigned short'.  */
                dbxout_symbol (decl);
            ...
          }

`NO_DBX_FUNCTION_END'
     Some stabs encapsulation formats (in particular ECOFF), cannot
     handle the `.stabs "",N_FUN,,0,0,Lscope-function-1' gdb dbx
     extension construct.  On those machines, define this macro to turn
     this feature off without disturbing the rest of the gdb extensions.



File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: File Names and DBX,  Next: SDB and DWARF,  Prev: DBX Hooks,  Up: Debugging Info

File Names in DBX Format
------------------------

This describes file names in DBX format.

`DBX_WORKING_DIRECTORY'
     Define this if DBX wants to have the current directory recorded in
     each object file.

     Note that the working directory is always recorded if GDB
     extensions are enabled.

`DBX_OUTPUT_MAIN_SOURCE_FILENAME (STREAM, NAME)'
     A C statement to output DBX debugging information to the stdio
     stream STREAM which indicates that file NAME is the main source
     file--the file specified as the input file for compilation.  This
     macro is called only once, at the beginning of compilation.

     This macro need not be defined if the standard form of output for
     DBX debugging information is appropriate.

`DBX_OUTPUT_MAIN_SOURCE_DIRECTORY (STREAM, NAME)'
     A C statement to output DBX debugging information to the stdio
     stream STREAM which indicates that the current directory during
     compilation is named NAME.

     This macro need not be defined if the standard form of output for
     DBX debugging information is appropriate.

`DBX_OUTPUT_MAIN_SOURCE_FILE_END (STREAM, NAME)'
     A C statement to output DBX debugging information at the end of
     compilation of the main source file NAME.

     If you don't define this macro, nothing special is output at the
     end of compilation, which is correct for most machines.

`DBX_OUTPUT_SOURCE_FILENAME (STREAM, NAME)'
     A C statement to output DBX debugging information to the stdio
     stream STREAM which indicates that file NAME is the current source
     file.  This output is generated each time input shifts to a
     different source file as a result of `#include', the end of an
     included file, or a `#line' command.

     This macro need not be defined if the standard form of output for
     DBX debugging information is appropriate.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: SDB and DWARF,  Next: VMS Debug,  Prev: File Names and DBX,  Up: Debugging Info

Macros for SDB and DWARF Output
-------------------------------

Here are macros for SDB and DWARF output.

`SDB_DEBUGGING_INFO'
     Define this macro if GCC should produce COFF-style debugging output
     for SDB in response to the `-g' option.

`DWARF_DEBUGGING_INFO'
     Define this macro if GCC should produce dwarf format debugging
     output in response to the `-g' option.

`DWARF2_DEBUGGING_INFO'
     Define this macro if GCC should produce dwarf version 2 format
     debugging output in response to the `-g' option.

     To support optional call frame debugging information, you must also
     define `INCOMING_RETURN_ADDR_RTX' and either set
     `RTX_FRAME_RELATED_P' on the prologue insns if you use RTL for the
     prologue, or call `dwarf2out_def_cfa' and `dwarf2out_reg_save' as
     appropriate from `TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_PROLOGUE' if you don't.

`DWARF2_FRAME_INFO'
     Define this macro to a nonzero value if GCC should always output
     Dwarf 2 frame information.  If `DWARF2_UNWIND_INFO' (*note
     Exception Region Output:: is nonzero, GCC will output this
     information not matter how you define `DWARF2_FRAME_INFO'.

`LINKER_DOES_NOT_WORK_WITH_DWARF2'
     Define this macro if the linker does not work with Dwarf version 2.
     Normally, if the user specifies only `-ggdb' GCC will use Dwarf
     version 2 if available; this macro disables this.  See the
     description of the `PREFERRED_DEBUGGING_TYPE' macro for more
     details.

`DWARF2_GENERATE_TEXT_SECTION_LABEL'
     By default, the Dwarf 2 debugging information generator will
     generate a label to mark the beginning of the text section.  If it
     is better simply to use the name of the text section itself,
     rather than an explicit label, to indicate the beginning of the
     text section, define this macro to zero.

`DWARF2_ASM_LINE_DEBUG_INFO'
     Define this macro to be a nonzero value if the assembler can
     generate Dwarf 2 line debug info sections.  This will result in
     much more compact line number tables, and hence is desirable if it
     works.

`PUT_SDB_...'
     Define these macros to override the assembler syntax for the
     special SDB assembler directives.  See `sdbout.c' for a list of
     these macros and their arguments.  If the standard syntax is used,
     you need not define them yourself.

`SDB_DELIM'
     Some assemblers do not support a semicolon as a delimiter, even
     between SDB assembler directives.  In that case, define this macro
     to be the delimiter to use (usually `\n').  It is not necessary to
     define a new set of `PUT_SDB_OP' macros if this is the only change
     required.

`SDB_GENERATE_FAKE'
     Define this macro to override the usual method of constructing a
     dummy name for anonymous structure and union types.  See
     `sdbout.c' for more information.

`SDB_ALLOW_UNKNOWN_REFERENCES'
     Define this macro to allow references to unknown structure, union,
     or enumeration tags to be emitted.  Standard COFF does not allow
     handling of unknown references, MIPS ECOFF has support for it.

`SDB_ALLOW_FORWARD_REFERENCES'
     Define this macro to allow references to structure, union, or
     enumeration tags that have not yet been seen to be handled.  Some
     assemblers choke if forward tags are used, while some require it.

Macros for VMS Debug Format
---------------------------

Here are macros for VMS debug format.

`VMS_DEBUGGING_INFO'
     Define this macro if GCC should produce debugging output for VMS
     in response to the `-g' option.  The default behavior for VMS is
     to generate minimal debug info for a traceback in the absence of
     `-g' unless explicitly overridden with `-g0'.  This behavior is
     controlled by `OPTIMIZATION_OPTIONS' and `OVERRIDE_OPTIONS'.

Cross Compilation and Floating Point
====================================

While all modern machines use 2's complement representation for
integers, there are a variety of representations for floating point
numbers.  This means that in a cross-compiler the representation of
floating point numbers in the compiled program may be different from
that used in the machine doing the compilation.

   Because different representation systems may offer different amounts
of range and precision, the cross compiler cannot safely use the host
machine's floating point arithmetic.  Therefore, floating point
constants must be represented in the target machine's format.  This
means that the cross compiler cannot use `atof' to parse a floating
point constant; it must have its own special routine to use instead.
Also, constant folding must emulate the target machine's arithmetic (or
must not be done at all).

   The macros in the following table should be defined only if you are
cross compiling between different floating point formats.

   Otherwise, don't define them.  Then default definitions will be set
up which use `double' as the data type, `==' to test for equality, etc.

   You don't need to worry about how many times you use an operand of
any of these macros.  The compiler never uses operands which have side
effects.

`REAL_VALUE_TYPE'
     A macro for the C data type to be used to hold a floating point
     value in the target machine's format.  Typically this would be a
     `struct' containing an array of `int'.

`REAL_VALUES_EQUAL (X, Y)'
     A macro for a C expression which compares for equality the two
     values, X and Y, both of type `REAL_VALUE_TYPE'.

`REAL_VALUES_LESS (X, Y)'
     A macro for a C expression which tests whether X is less than Y,
     both values being of type `REAL_VALUE_TYPE' and interpreted as
     floating point numbers in the target machine's representation.

`REAL_VALUE_LDEXP (X, SCALE)'
     A macro for a C expression which performs the standard library
     function `ldexp', but using the target machine's floating point
     representation.  Both X and the value of the expression have type
     `REAL_VALUE_TYPE'.  The second argument, SCALE, is an integer.

`REAL_VALUE_FIX (X)'
     A macro whose definition is a C expression to convert the
     target-machine floating point value X to a signed integer.  X has
     type `REAL_VALUE_TYPE'.

`REAL_VALUE_UNSIGNED_FIX (X)'
     A macro whose definition is a C expression to convert the
     target-machine floating point value X to an unsigned integer.  X
     has type `REAL_VALUE_TYPE'.

`REAL_VALUE_RNDZINT (X)'
     A macro whose definition is a C expression to round the
     target-machine floating point value X towards zero to an integer
     value (but still as a floating point number).  X has type
     `REAL_VALUE_TYPE', and so does the value.

`REAL_VALUE_UNSIGNED_RNDZINT (X)'
     A macro whose definition is a C expression to round the
     target-machine floating point value X towards zero to an unsigned
     integer value (but still represented as a floating point number).
     X has type `REAL_VALUE_TYPE', and so does the value.

`REAL_VALUE_ATOF (STRING, MODE)'
     A macro for a C expression which converts STRING, an expression of
     type `char *', into a floating point number in the target machine's
     representation for mode MODE.  The value has type
     `REAL_VALUE_TYPE'.

`REAL_INFINITY'
     Define this macro if infinity is a possible floating point value,
     and therefore division by 0 is legitimate.

`REAL_VALUE_ISINF (X)'
     A macro for a C expression which determines whether X, a floating
     point value, is infinity.  The value has type `int'.  By default,
     this is defined to call `isinf'.

`REAL_VALUE_ISNAN (X)'
     A macro for a C expression which determines whether X, a floating
     point value, is a "nan" (not-a-number).  The value has type `int'.
     By default, this is defined to call `isnan'.

   Define the following additional macros if you want to make floating
point constant folding work while cross compiling.  If you don't define
them, cross compilation is still possible, but constant folding will
not happen for floating point values.

`REAL_ARITHMETIC (OUTPUT, CODE, X, Y)'
     A macro for a C statement which calculates an arithmetic operation
     of the two floating point values X and Y, both of type
     `REAL_VALUE_TYPE' in the target machine's representation, to
     produce a result of the same type and representation which is
     stored in OUTPUT (which will be a variable).

     The operation to be performed is specified by CODE, a tree code
     which will always be one of the following: `PLUS_EXPR',
     `MINUS_EXPR', `MULT_EXPR', `RDIV_EXPR', `MAX_EXPR', `MIN_EXPR'.

     The expansion of this macro is responsible for checking for
     overflow.  If overflow happens, the macro expansion should execute
     the statement `return 0;', which indicates the inability to
     perform the arithmetic operation requested.

`REAL_VALUE_NEGATE (X)'
     A macro for a C expression which returns the negative of the
     floating point value X.  Both X and the value of the expression
     have type `REAL_VALUE_TYPE' and are in the target machine's
     floating point representation.

     There is no way for this macro to report overflow, since overflow
     can't happen in the negation operation.

`REAL_VALUE_TRUNCATE (MODE, X)'
     A macro for a C expression which converts the floating point value
     X to mode MODE.

     Both X and the value of the expression are in the target machine's
     floating point representation and have type `REAL_VALUE_TYPE'.
     However, the value should have an appropriate bit pattern to be
     output properly as a floating constant whose precision accords
     with mode MODE.

     There is no way for this macro to report overflow.

`REAL_VALUE_TO_INT (LOW, HIGH, X)'
     A macro for a C expression which converts a floating point value X
     into a double-precision integer which is then stored into LOW and
     HIGH, two variables of type INT.

`REAL_VALUE_FROM_INT (X, LOW, HIGH, MODE)'
     A macro for a C expression which converts a double-precision
     integer found in LOW and HIGH, two variables of type INT, into a
     floating point value which is then stored into X.  The value is in
     the target machine's representation for mode MODE and has the type
     `REAL_VALUE_TYPE'.

Mode Switching Instructions
===========================

The following macros control mode switching optimizations:

`OPTIMIZE_MODE_SWITCHING (ENTITY)'
     Define this macro if the port needs extra instructions inserted
     for mode switching in an optimizing compilation.

     For an example, the SH4 can perform both single and double
     precision floating point operations, but to perform a single
     precision operation, the FPSCR PR bit has to be cleared, while for
     a double precision operation, this bit has to be set.  Changing
     the PR bit requires a general purpose register as a scratch
     register, hence these FPSCR sets have to be inserted before
     reload, i.e. you can't put this into instruction emitting or
     `MACHINE_DEPENDENT_REORG'.

     You can have multiple entities that are mode-switched, and select
     at run time which entities actually need it.
     `OPTIMIZE_MODE_SWITCHING' should return nonzero for any ENTITY
     that needs mode-switching.  If you define this macro, you also
     have to define `NUM_MODES_FOR_MODE_SWITCHING', `MODE_NEEDED',
     `MODE_PRIORITY_TO_MODE' and `EMIT_MODE_SET'.  `NORMAL_MODE' is
     optional.

`NUM_MODES_FOR_MODE_SWITCHING'
     If you define `OPTIMIZE_MODE_SWITCHING', you have to define this as
     initializer for an array of integers.  Each initializer element N
     refers to an entity that needs mode switching, and specifies the
     number of different modes that might need to be set for this
     entity.  The position of the initializer in the initializer -
     starting counting at zero - determines the integer that is used to
     refer to the mode-switched entity in question.  In macros that
     take mode arguments / yield a mode result, modes are represented
     as numbers 0 ... N - 1.  N is used to specify that no mode switch
     is needed / supplied.

`MODE_NEEDED (ENTITY, INSN)'
     ENTITY is an integer specifying a mode-switched entity.  If
     `OPTIMIZE_MODE_SWITCHING' is defined, you must define this macro to
     return an integer value not larger than the corresponding element
     in `NUM_MODES_FOR_MODE_SWITCHING', to denote the mode that ENTITY
     must be switched into prior to the execution of INSN.

`NORMAL_MODE (ENTITY)'
     If this macro is defined, it is evaluated for every ENTITY that
     needs mode switching.  It should evaluate to an integer, which is
     a mode that ENTITY is assumed to be switched to at function entry
     and exit.

`MODE_PRIORITY_TO_MODE (ENTITY, N)'
     This macro specifies the order in which modes for ENTITY are
     processed.  0 is the highest priority,
     `NUM_MODES_FOR_MODE_SWITCHING[ENTITY] - 1' the lowest.  The value
     of the macro should be an integer designating a mode for ENTITY.
     For any fixed ENTITY, `mode_priority_to_mode' (ENTITY, N) shall be
     a bijection in 0 ...  `num_modes_for_mode_switching[ENTITY] - 1'.

`EMIT_MODE_SET (ENTITY, MODE, HARD_REGS_LIVE)'
     Generate one or more insns to set ENTITY to MODE.  HARD_REG_LIVE
     is the set of hard registers live at the point where the insn(s)
     are to be inserted.

Defining target-specific uses of `__attribute__'
================================================

Target-specific attributes may be defined for functions, data and types.
These are described using the following target hooks; they also need to
be documented in `extend.texi'.

 - Target Hook: const struct attribute_spec * TARGET_ATTRIBUTE_TABLE
     If defined, this target hook points to an array of `struct
     attribute_spec' (defined in `tree.h') specifying the machine
     specific attributes for this target and some of the restrictions
     on the entities to which these attributes are applied and the
     arguments they take.

 - Target Hook: int TARGET_COMP_TYPE_ATTRIBUTES (tree TYPE1, tree TYPE2)
     If defined, this target hook is a function which returns zero if
     the attributes on TYPE1 and TYPE2 are incompatible, one if they
     are compatible, and two if they are nearly compatible (which
     causes a warning to be generated).  If this is not defined,
     machine-specific attributes are supposed always to be compatible.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_SET_DEFAULT_TYPE_ATTRIBUTES (tree TYPE)
     If defined, this target hook is a function which assigns default
     attributes to newly defined TYPE.

 - Target Hook: tree TARGET_MERGE_TYPE_ATTRIBUTES (tree TYPE1, tree
          TYPE2)
     Define this target hook if the merging of type attributes needs
     special handling.  If defined, the result is a list of the combined
     `TYPE_ATTRIBUTES' of TYPE1 and TYPE2.  It is assumed that
     `comptypes' has already been called and returned 1.  This function
     may call `merge_attributes' to handle machine-independent merging.

 - Target Hook: tree TARGET_MERGE_DECL_ATTRIBUTES (tree OLDDECL, tree
          NEWDECL)
     Define this target hook if the merging of decl attributes needs
     special handling.  If defined, the result is a list of the combined
     `DECL_ATTRIBUTES' of OLDDECL and NEWDECL.  NEWDECL is a duplicate
     declaration of OLDDECL.  Examples of when this is needed are when
     one attribute overrides another, or when an attribute is nullified
     by a subsequent definition.  This function may call
     `merge_attributes' to handle machine-independent merging.

     If the only target-specific handling you require is `dllimport' for
     Windows targets, you should define the macro
     `TARGET_DLLIMPORT_DECL_ATTRIBUTES'.  This links in a function
     called `merge_dllimport_decl_attributes' which can then be defined
     as the expansion of `TARGET_MERGE_DECL_ATTRIBUTES'.  This is done
     in `i386/cygwin.h' and `i386/i386.c', for example.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_INSERT_ATTRIBUTES (tree NODE, tree
          *ATTR_PTR)
     Define this target hook if you want to be able to add attributes
     to a decl when it is being created.  This is normally useful for
     back ends which wish to implement a pragma by using the attributes
     which correspond to the pragma's effect.  The NODE argument is the
     decl which is being created.  The ATTR_PTR argument is a pointer
     to the attribute list for this decl.  The list itself should not
     be modified, since it may be shared with other decls, but
     attributes may be chained on the head of the list and `*ATTR_PTR'
     modified to point to the new attributes, or a copy of the list may
     be made if further changes are needed.

 - Target Hook: bool TARGET_FUNCTION_ATTRIBUTE_INLINABLE_P (tree FNDECL)
     This target hook returns `true' if it is ok to inline FNDECL into
     the current function, despite its having target-specific
     attributes, `false' otherwise.  By default, if a function has a
     target specific attribute attached to it, it will not be inlined.

Miscellaneous Parameters
========================

Here are several miscellaneous parameters.

`PREDICATE_CODES'
     Define this if you have defined special-purpose predicates in the
     file `MACHINE.c'.  This macro is called within an initializer of an
     array of structures.  The first field in the structure is the name
     of a predicate and the second field is an array of rtl codes.  For
     each predicate, list all rtl codes that can be in expressions
     matched by the predicate.  The list should have a trailing comma.
     Here is an example of two entries in the list for a typical RISC
     machine:

          #define PREDICATE_CODES \
            {"gen_reg_rtx_operand", {SUBREG, REG}},  \
            {"reg_or_short_cint_operand", {SUBREG, REG, CONST_INT}},

     Defining this macro does not affect the generated code (however,
     incorrect definitions that omit an rtl code that may be matched by
     the predicate can cause the compiler to malfunction).  Instead, it
     allows the table built by `genrecog' to be more compact and
     efficient, thus speeding up the compiler.  The most important
     predicates to include in the list specified by this macro are
     those used in the most insn patterns.

     For each predicate function named in `PREDICATE_CODES', a
     declaration will be generated in `insn-codes.h'.

`SPECIAL_MODE_PREDICATES'
     Define this if you have special predicates that know special things
     about modes.  Genrecog will warn about certain forms of
     `match_operand' without a mode; if the operand predicate is listed
     in `SPECIAL_MODE_PREDICATES', the warning will be suppressed.

     Here is an example from the IA-32 port (`ext_register_operand'
     specially checks for `HImode' or `SImode' in preparation for a
     byte extraction from `%ah' etc.).

          #define SPECIAL_MODE_PREDICATES \
            "ext_register_operand",

`CASE_VECTOR_MODE'
     An alias for a machine mode name.  This is the machine mode that
     elements of a jump-table should have.

`CASE_VECTOR_SHORTEN_MODE (MIN_OFFSET, MAX_OFFSET, BODY)'
     Optional: return the preferred mode for an `addr_diff_vec' when
     the minimum and maximum offset are known.  If you define this, it
     enables extra code in branch shortening to deal with
     `addr_diff_vec'.  To make this work, you also have to define
     INSN_ALIGN and make the alignment for `addr_diff_vec' explicit.
     The BODY argument is provided so that the offset_unsigned and scale
     flags can be updated.

`CASE_VECTOR_PC_RELATIVE'
     Define this macro to be a C expression to indicate when jump-tables
     should contain relative addresses.  If jump-tables never contain
     relative addresses, then you need not define this macro.

`CASE_DROPS_THROUGH'
     Define this if control falls through a `case' insn when the index
     value is out of range.  This means the specified default-label is
     actually ignored by the `case' insn proper.

`CASE_VALUES_THRESHOLD'
     Define this to be the smallest number of different values for
     which it is best to use a jump-table instead of a tree of
     conditional branches.  The default is four for machines with a
     `casesi' instruction and five otherwise.  This is best for most
     machines.

`WORD_REGISTER_OPERATIONS'
     Define this macro if operations between registers with integral
     mode smaller than a word are always performed on the entire
     register.  Most RISC machines have this property and most CISC
     machines do not.

`LOAD_EXTEND_OP (MODE)'
     Define this macro to be a C expression indicating when insns that
     read memory in MODE, an integral mode narrower than a word, set the
     bits outside of MODE to be either the sign-extension or the
     zero-extension of the data read.  Return `SIGN_EXTEND' for values
     of MODE for which the insn sign-extends, `ZERO_EXTEND' for which
     it zero-extends, and `NIL' for other modes.

     This macro is not called with MODE non-integral or with a width
     greater than or equal to `BITS_PER_WORD', so you may return any
     value in this case.  Do not define this macro if it would always
     return `NIL'.  On machines where this macro is defined, you will
     normally define it as the constant `SIGN_EXTEND' or `ZERO_EXTEND'.

`SHORT_IMMEDIATES_SIGN_EXTEND'
     Define this macro if loading short immediate values into registers
     sign extends.

`FIXUNS_TRUNC_LIKE_FIX_TRUNC'
     Define this macro if the same instructions that convert a floating
     point number to a signed fixed point number also convert validly
     to an unsigned one.

`MOVE_MAX'
     The maximum number of bytes that a single instruction can move
     quickly between memory and registers or between two memory
     locations.

`MAX_MOVE_MAX'
     The maximum number of bytes that a single instruction can move
     quickly between memory and registers or between two memory
     locations.  If this is undefined, the default is `MOVE_MAX'.
     Otherwise, it is the constant value that is the largest value that
     `MOVE_MAX' can have at run-time.

`SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED'
     A C expression that is nonzero if on this machine the number of
     bits actually used for the count of a shift operation is equal to
     the number of bits needed to represent the size of the object
     being shifted.  When this macro is nonzero, the compiler will
     assume that it is safe to omit a sign-extend, zero-extend, and
     certain bitwise `and' instructions that truncates the count of a
     shift operation.  On machines that have instructions that act on
     bit-fields at variable positions, which may include `bit test'
     instructions, a nonzero `SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED' also enables
     deletion of truncations of the values that serve as arguments to
     bit-field instructions.

     If both types of instructions truncate the count (for shifts) and
     position (for bit-field operations), or if no variable-position
     bit-field instructions exist, you should define this macro.

     However, on some machines, such as the 80386 and the 680x0,
     truncation only applies to shift operations and not the (real or
     pretended) bit-field operations.  Define `SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED'
     to be zero on such machines.  Instead, add patterns to the `md'
     file that include the implied truncation of the shift instructions.

     You need not define this macro if it would always have the value
     of zero.

`TRULY_NOOP_TRUNCATION (OUTPREC, INPREC)'
     A C expression which is nonzero if on this machine it is safe to
     "convert" an integer of INPREC bits to one of OUTPREC bits (where
     OUTPREC is smaller than INPREC) by merely operating on it as if it
     had only OUTPREC bits.

     On many machines, this expression can be 1.

     When `TRULY_NOOP_TRUNCATION' returns 1 for a pair of sizes for
     modes for which `MODES_TIEABLE_P' is 0, suboptimal code can result.
     If this is the case, making `TRULY_NOOP_TRUNCATION' return 0 in
     such cases may improve things.

`STORE_FLAG_VALUE'
     A C expression describing the value returned by a comparison
     operator with an integral mode and stored by a store-flag
     instruction (`sCOND') when the condition is true.  This
     description must apply to _all_ the `sCOND' patterns and all the
     comparison operators whose results have a `MODE_INT' mode.

     A value of 1 or -1 means that the instruction implementing the
     comparison operator returns exactly 1 or -1 when the comparison is
     true and 0 when the comparison is false.  Otherwise, the value
     indicates which bits of the result are guaranteed to be 1 when the
     comparison is true.  This value is interpreted in the mode of the
     comparison operation, which is given by the mode of the first
     operand in the `sCOND' pattern.  Either the low bit or the sign
     bit of `STORE_FLAG_VALUE' be on.  Presently, only those bits are
     used by the compiler.

     If `STORE_FLAG_VALUE' is neither 1 or -1, the compiler will
     generate code that depends only on the specified bits.  It can also
     replace comparison operators with equivalent operations if they
     cause the required bits to be set, even if the remaining bits are
     undefined.  For example, on a machine whose comparison operators
     return an `SImode' value and where `STORE_FLAG_VALUE' is defined as
     `0x80000000', saying that just the sign bit is relevant, the
     expression

          (ne:SI (and:SI X (const_int POWER-OF-2)) (const_int 0))

     can be converted to

          (ashift:SI X (const_int N))

     where N is the appropriate shift count to move the bit being
     tested into the sign bit.

     There is no way to describe a machine that always sets the
     low-order bit for a true value, but does not guarantee the value
     of any other bits, but we do not know of any machine that has such
     an instruction.  If you are trying to port GCC to such a machine,
     include an instruction to perform a logical-and of the result with
     1 in the pattern for the comparison operators and let us know at
     <gcc@gcc.gnu.org>.

     Often, a machine will have multiple instructions that obtain a
     value from a comparison (or the condition codes).  Here are rules
     to guide the choice of value for `STORE_FLAG_VALUE', and hence the
     instructions to be used:

        * Use the shortest sequence that yields a valid definition for
          `STORE_FLAG_VALUE'.  It is more efficient for the compiler to
          "normalize" the value (convert it to, e.g., 1 or 0) than for
          the comparison operators to do so because there may be
          opportunities to combine the normalization with other
          operations.

        * For equal-length sequences, use a value of 1 or -1, with -1
          being slightly preferred on machines with expensive jumps and
          1 preferred on other machines.

        * As a second choice, choose a value of `0x80000001' if
          instructions exist that set both the sign and low-order bits
          but do not define the others.

        * Otherwise, use a value of `0x80000000'.

     Many machines can produce both the value chosen for
     `STORE_FLAG_VALUE' and its negation in the same number of
     instructions.  On those machines, you should also define a pattern
     for those cases, e.g., one matching

          (set A (neg:M (ne:M B C)))

     Some machines can also perform `and' or `plus' operations on
     condition code values with less instructions than the corresponding
     `sCOND' insn followed by `and' or `plus'.  On those machines,
     define the appropriate patterns.  Use the names `incscc' and
     `decscc', respectively, for the patterns which perform `plus' or
     `minus' operations on condition code values.  See `rs6000.md' for
     some examples.  The GNU Superoptizer can be used to find such
     instruction sequences on other machines.

     You need not define `STORE_FLAG_VALUE' if the machine has no
     store-flag instructions.

`FLOAT_STORE_FLAG_VALUE (MODE)'
     A C expression that gives a nonzero `REAL_VALUE_TYPE' value that is
     returned when comparison operators with floating-point results are
     true.  Define this macro on machine that have comparison
     operations that return floating-point values.  If there are no
     such operations, do not define this macro.

`Pmode'
     An alias for the machine mode for pointers.  On most machines,
     define this to be the integer mode corresponding to the width of a
     hardware pointer; `SImode' on 32-bit machine or `DImode' on 64-bit
     machines.  On some machines you must define this to be one of the
     partial integer modes, such as `PSImode'.

     The width of `Pmode' must be at least as large as the value of
     `POINTER_SIZE'.  If it is not equal, you must define the macro
     `POINTERS_EXTEND_UNSIGNED' to specify how pointers are extended to
     `Pmode'.

`FUNCTION_MODE'
     An alias for the machine mode used for memory references to
     functions being called, in `call' RTL expressions.  On most
     machines this should be `QImode'.

`INTEGRATE_THRESHOLD (DECL)'
     A C expression for the maximum number of instructions above which
     the function DECL should not be inlined.  DECL is a
     `FUNCTION_DECL' node.

     The default definition of this macro is 64 plus 8 times the number
     of arguments that the function accepts.  Some people think a larger
     threshold should be used on RISC machines.

`STDC_0_IN_SYSTEM_HEADERS'
     In normal operation, the preprocessor expands `__STDC__' to the
     constant 1, to signify that GCC conforms to ISO Standard C.  On
     some hosts, like Solaris, the system compiler uses a different
     convention, where `__STDC__' is normally 0, but is 1 if the user
     specifies strict conformance to the C Standard.

     Defining `STDC_0_IN_SYSTEM_HEADERS' makes GNU CPP follows the host
     convention when processing system header files, but when
     processing user files `__STDC__' will always expand to 1.

`SCCS_DIRECTIVE'
     Define this if the preprocessor should ignore `#sccs' directives
     and print no error message.

`NO_IMPLICIT_EXTERN_C'
     Define this macro if the system header files support C++ as well
     as C.  This macro inhibits the usual method of using system header
     files in C++, which is to pretend that the file's contents are
     enclosed in `extern "C" {...}'.

`HANDLE_PRAGMA (GETC, UNGETC, NAME)'
     This macro is no longer supported.  You must use
     `REGISTER_TARGET_PRAGMAS' instead.

`REGISTER_TARGET_PRAGMAS (PFILE)'
     Define this macro if you want to implement any target-specific
     pragmas.  If defined, it is a C expression which makes a series of
     calls to `cpp_register_pragma' for each pragma, with PFILE passed
     as the first argument to to these functions.  The macro may also
     do any setup required for the pragmas.

     The primary reason to define this macro is to provide
     compatibility with other compilers for the same target.  In
     general, we discourage definition of target-specific pragmas for
     GCC.

     If the pragma can be implemented by attributes then you should
     consider defining the target hook `TARGET_INSERT_ATTRIBUTES' as
     well.

     Preprocessor macros that appear on pragma lines are not expanded.
     All `#pragma' directives that do not match any registered pragma
     are silently ignored, unless the user specifies
     `-Wunknown-pragmas'.

      - Function: void cpp_register_pragma (cpp_reader *PFILE, const
               char *SPACE, const char *NAME, void (*CALLBACK)
               (cpp_reader *))
          Each call to `cpp_register_pragma' establishes one pragma.
          The CALLBACK routine will be called when the preprocessor
          encounters a pragma of the form

               #pragma [SPACE] NAME ...

          SPACE is the case-sensitive namespace of the pragma, or
          `NULL' to put the pragma in the global namespace.  The
          callback routine receives PFILE as its first argument, which
          can be passed on to cpplib's functions if necessary.  You can
          lex tokens after the NAME by calling `c_lex'.  Tokens that
          are not read by the callback will be silently ignored.  The
          end of the line is indicated by a token of type `CPP_EOF'.

          For an example use of this routine, see `c4x.h' and the
          callback routines defined in `c4x-c.c'.

          Note that the use of `c_lex' is specific to the C and C++
          compilers.  It will not work in the Java or Fortran
          compilers, or any other language compilers for that matter.
          Thus if `c_lex' is going to be called from target-specific
          code, it must only be done so when building the C and C++
          compilers.  This can be done by defining the variables
          `c_target_objs' and `cxx_target_objs' in the target entry in
          the `config.gcc' file.  These variables should name the
          target-specific, language-specific object file which contains
          the code that uses `c_lex'.  Note it will also be necessary
          to add a rule to the makefile fragment pointed to by
          `tmake_file' that shows how to build this object file.

`HANDLE_SYSV_PRAGMA'
     Define this macro (to a value of 1) if you want the System V style
     pragmas `#pragma pack(<n>)' and `#pragma weak <name> [=<value>]'
     to be supported by gcc.

     The pack pragma specifies the maximum alignment (in bytes) of
     fields within a structure, in much the same way as the
     `__aligned__' and `__packed__' `__attribute__'s do.  A pack value
     of zero resets the behavior to the default.

     The weak pragma only works if `SUPPORTS_WEAK' and
     `ASM_WEAKEN_LABEL' are defined.  If enabled it allows the creation
     of specifically named weak labels, optionally with a value.

`HANDLE_PRAGMA_PACK_PUSH_POP'
     Define this macro (to a value of 1) if you want to support the
     Win32 style pragmas `#pragma pack(push,N)' and `#pragma
     pack(pop)'.  The `pack(push,N)' pragma specifies the maximum
     alignment (in bytes) of fields within a structure, in much the
     same way as the `__aligned__' and `__packed__' `__attribute__'s
     do.  A pack value of zero resets the behavior to the default.
     Successive invocations of this pragma cause the previous values to
     be stacked, so that invocations of `#pragma pack(pop)' will return
     to the previous value.

`DOLLARS_IN_IDENTIFIERS'
     Define this macro to control use of the character `$' in identifier
     names.  0 means `$' is not allowed by default; 1 means it is
     allowed.  1 is the default; there is no need to define this macro
     in that case.  This macro controls the compiler proper; it does
     not affect the preprocessor.

`NO_DOLLAR_IN_LABEL'
     Define this macro if the assembler does not accept the character
     `$' in label names.  By default constructors and destructors in
     G++ have `$' in the identifiers.  If this macro is defined, `.' is
     used instead.

`NO_DOT_IN_LABEL'
     Define this macro if the assembler does not accept the character
     `.' in label names.  By default constructors and destructors in G++
     have names that use `.'.  If this macro is defined, these names
     are rewritten to avoid `.'.

`DEFAULT_MAIN_RETURN'
     Define this macro if the target system expects every program's
     `main' function to return a standard "success" value by default
     (if no other value is explicitly returned).

     The definition should be a C statement (sans semicolon) to
     generate the appropriate rtl instructions.  It is used only when
     compiling the end of `main'.

`NEED_ATEXIT'
     Define this if the target system lacks the function `atexit' from
     the ISO C standard.  If this macro is defined, a default definition
     will be provided to support C++.  If `ON_EXIT' is not defined, a
     default `exit' function will also be provided.

`ON_EXIT'
     Define this macro if the target has another way to implement atexit
     functionality without replacing `exit'.  For instance, SunOS 4 has
     a similar `on_exit' library function.

     The definition should be a functional macro which can be used just
     like the `atexit' function.

`EXIT_BODY'
     Define this if your `exit' function needs to do something besides
     calling an external function `_cleanup' before terminating with
     `_exit'.  The `EXIT_BODY' macro is only needed if `NEED_ATEXIT' is
     defined and `ON_EXIT' is not defined.

`INSN_SETS_ARE_DELAYED (INSN)'
     Define this macro as a C expression that is nonzero if it is safe
     for the delay slot scheduler to place instructions in the delay
     slot of INSN, even if they appear to use a resource set or
     clobbered in INSN.  INSN is always a `jump_insn' or an `insn'; GCC
     knows that every `call_insn' has this behavior.  On machines where
     some `insn' or `jump_insn' is really a function call and hence has
     this behavior, you should define this macro.

     You need not define this macro if it would always return zero.

`INSN_REFERENCES_ARE_DELAYED (INSN)'
     Define this macro as a C expression that is nonzero if it is safe
     for the delay slot scheduler to place instructions in the delay
     slot of INSN, even if they appear to set or clobber a resource
     referenced in INSN.  INSN is always a `jump_insn' or an `insn'.
     On machines where some `insn' or `jump_insn' is really a function
     call and its operands are registers whose use is actually in the
     subroutine it calls, you should define this macro.  Doing so
     allows the delay slot scheduler to move instructions which copy
     arguments into the argument registers into the delay slot of INSN.

     You need not define this macro if it would always return zero.

`MACHINE_DEPENDENT_REORG (INSN)'
     In rare cases, correct code generation requires extra machine
     dependent processing between the second jump optimization pass and
     delayed branch scheduling.  On those machines, define this macro
     as a C statement to act on the code starting at INSN.

`MULTIPLE_SYMBOL_SPACES'
     Define this macro if in some cases global symbols from one
     translation unit may not be bound to undefined symbols in another
     translation unit without user intervention.  For instance, under
     Microsoft Windows symbols must be explicitly imported from shared
     libraries (DLLs).

`MD_ASM_CLOBBERS (CLOBBERS)'
     A C statement that adds to CLOBBERS `STRING_CST' trees for any
     hard regs the port wishes to automatically clobber for all asms.

`MAX_INTEGER_COMPUTATION_MODE'
     Define this to the largest integer machine mode which can be used
     for operations other than load, store and copy operations.

     You need only define this macro if the target holds values larger
     than `word_mode' in general purpose registers.  Most targets
     should not define this macro.

`MATH_LIBRARY'
     Define this macro as a C string constant for the linker argument
     to link in the system math library, or `""' if the target does not
     have a separate math library.

     You need only define this macro if the default of `"-lm"' is wrong.

`LIBRARY_PATH_ENV'
     Define this macro as a C string constant for the environment
     variable that specifies where the linker should look for libraries.

     You need only define this macro if the default of `"LIBRARY_PATH"'
     is wrong.

`TARGET_HAS_F_SETLKW'
     Define this macro if the target supports file locking with fcntl /
     F_SETLKW.  Note that this functionality is part of POSIX.
     Defining `TARGET_HAS_F_SETLKW' will enable the test coverage code
     to use file locking when exiting a program, which avoids race
     conditions if the program has forked.

`MAX_CONDITIONAL_EXECUTE'
     A C expression for the maximum number of instructions to execute
     via conditional execution instructions instead of a branch.  A
     value of `BRANCH_COST'+1 is the default if the machine does not
     use cc0, and 1 if it does use cc0.

`IFCVT_MODIFY_TESTS'
     A C expression to modify the tests in `TRUE_EXPR', and
     `FALSE_EXPR' for use in converting insns in `TEST_BB', `THEN_BB',
     `ELSE_BB', and `JOIN_BB' basic blocks to conditional execution.
     Set either `TRUE_EXPR' or `FALSE_EXPR' to a null pointer if the
     tests cannot be converted.

`IFCVT_MODIFY_INSN'
     A C expression to modify the `PATTERN' of an `INSN' that is to be
     converted to conditional execution format.

`IFCVT_MODIFY_FINAL'
     A C expression to perform any final machine dependent
     modifications in converting code to conditional execution in the
     basic blocks `TEST_BB', `THEN_BB', `ELSE_BB', and `JOIN_BB'.

`IFCVT_MODIFY_CANCEL'
     A C expression to cancel any machine dependent modifications in
     converting code to conditional execution in the basic blocks
     `TEST_BB', `THEN_BB', `ELSE_BB', and `JOIN_BB'.

 - Target Hook: void TARGET_INIT_BUILTINS ()
     Define this hook if you have any machine-specific built-in
     functions that need to be defined.  It should be a function that
     performs the necessary setup.

     Machine specific built-in functions can be useful to expand
     special machine instructions that would otherwise not normally be
     generated because they have no equivalent in the source language
     (for example, SIMD vector instructions or prefetch instructions).

     To create a built-in function, call the function `builtin_function'
     which is defined by the language front end.  You can use any type
     nodes set up by `build_common_tree_nodes' and
     `build_common_tree_nodes_2'; only language front ends that use
     those two functions will call `TARGET_INIT_BUILTINS'.

 - Target Hook: rtx TARGET_EXPAND_BUILTIN (tree EXP, rtx TARGET, rtx
          SUBTARGET, enum machine_mode MODE, int IGNORE)
     Expand a call to a machine specific built-in function that was set
     up by `TARGET_INIT_BUILTINS'.  EXP is the expression for the
     function call; the result should go to TARGET if that is
     convenient, and have mode MODE if that is convenient.  SUBTARGET
     may be used as the target for computing one of EXP's operands.
     IGNORE is nonzero if the value is to be ignored.  This function
     should return the result of the call to the built-in function.

`MD_CAN_REDIRECT_BRANCH(BRANCH1, BRANCH2)'
     Take a branch insn in BRANCH1 and another in BRANCH2.  Return true
     if redirecting BRANCH1 to the destination of BRANCH2 is possible.

     On some targets, branches may have a limited range.  Optimizing the
     filling of delay slots can result in branches being redirected,
     and this may in turn cause a branch offset to overflow.

`ALLOCATE_INITIAL_VALUE(HARD_REG)'
     When the initial value of a hard register has been copied in a
     pseudo register, it is often not necessary to actually allocate
     another register to this pseudo register, because the original
     hard register or a stack slot it has been saved into can be used.
     `ALLOCATE_INITIAL_VALUE', if defined, is called at the start of
     register allocation once for each hard register that had its
     initial value copied by using `get_func_hard_reg_initial_val' or
     `get_hard_reg_initial_val'.  Possible values are `NULL_RTX', if
     you don't want to do any special allocation, a `REG' rtx--that
     would typically be the hard register itself, if it is known not to
     be clobbered--or a `MEM'.  If you are returning a `MEM', this is
     only a hint for the allocator; it might decide to use another
     register anyways.  You may use `current_function_leaf_function' in
     the definition of the macro, functions that use `REG_N_SETS', to
     determine if the hard register in question will not be clobbered.

`TARGET_OBJECT_SUFFIX'
     Define this macro to be a C string representing the suffix for
     object files on your target machine.  If you do not define this
     macro, GCC will use `.o' as the suffix for object files.

`TARGET_EXECUTABLE_SUFFIX'
     Define this macro to be a C string representing the suffix to be
     automatically added to executable files on your target machine.
     If you do not define this macro, GCC will use the null string as
     the suffix for executable files.

`COLLECT_EXPORT_LIST'
     If defined, `collect2' will scan the individual object files
     specified on its command line and create an export list for the
     linker.  Define this macro for systems like AIX, where the linker
     discards object files that are not referenced from `main' and uses
     export lists.


 - Target Hook: bool TARGET_CANNOT_MODIFY_JUMPS_P (void)
     This target hook returns `true' past the point in which new jump
     instructions could be created.  On machines that require a
     register for every jump such as the SHmedia ISA of SH5, this point
     would typically be reload, so this target hook should be defined
     to a function such as:

          static bool
          cannot_modify_jumps_past_reload_p ()
          {
            return (reload_completed || reload_in_progress);
          }


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Host Config,  Next: Fragments,  Prev: Target Macros,  Up: Top

Host Configuration Headers
**************************

Host configuration headers contain macro definitions that describe the
machine and system on which the compiler is running.  They are usually
unnecessary.  Most of the things GCC needs to know about the host
system can be deduced by the `configure' script.

   If your host does need a special configuration header, it should be
named `xm-MACHINE.h', where MACHINE is a short mnemonic for the
machine.  Here are some macros which this header can define.

`VMS'
     Define this macro if the host system is VMS.

`FATAL_EXIT_CODE'
     A C expression for the status code to be returned when the compiler
     exits after serious errors.  The default is the system-provided
     macro `EXIT_FAILURE', or `1' if the system doesn't define that
     macro.  Define this macro only if these defaults are incorrect.

`SUCCESS_EXIT_CODE'
     A C expression for the status code to be returned when the compiler
     exits without serious errors.  (Warnings are not serious errors.)
     The default is the system-provided macro `EXIT_SUCCESS', or `0' if
     the system doesn't define that macro.  Define this macro only if
     these defaults are incorrect.

`USE_C_ALLOCA'
     Define this macro if GCC should use the C implementation of
     `alloca' provided by `libiberty.a'.  This only affects how some
     parts of the compiler itself allocate memory.  It does not change
     code generation.

     When GCC is built with a compiler other than itself, the C `alloca'
     is always used.  This is because most other implementations have
     serious bugs.  You should define this macro only on a system where
     no stack-based `alloca' can possibly work.  For instance, if a
     system has a small limit on the size of the stack, GCC's builtin
     `alloca' will not work reliably.

`HAVE_DOS_BASED_FILE_SYSTEM'
     Define this macro if the host file system obeys the semantics
     defined by MS-DOS instead of Unix.  DOS file systems are case
     insensitive, file specifications may begin with a drive letter,
     and both forward slash and backslash (`/' and `\') are directory
     separators.  If you define this macro, you probably need to define
     the next three macros too.

`PATH_SEPARATOR'
     If defined, this macro should expand to a character constant
     specifying the separator for elements of search paths.  The
     default value is a colon (`:').  DOS-based systems usually use
     semicolon (`;').

`DIR_SEPARATOR'
`DIR_SEPARATOR_2'
     If defined, these macros expand to character constants specifying
     separators for directory names within a file specification.  They
     are used somewhat inconsistently throughout the compiler.  If your
     system behaves like Unix (only forward slash separates pathnames),
     define neither of them.  If your system behaves like DOS (both
     forward and backward slash can be used), define `DIR_SEPARATOR' to
     `/' and `DIR_SEPARATOR_2' to `\'.

`HOST_OBJECT_SUFFIX'
     Define this macro to be a C string representing the suffix for
     object files on your host machine.  If you do not define this
     macro, GCC will use `.o' as the suffix for object files.

`HOST_EXECUTABLE_SUFFIX'
     Define this macro to be a C string representing the suffix for
     executable files on your host machine.  If you do not define this
     macro, GCC will use the null string as the suffix for executable
     files.

`HOST_BIT_BUCKET'
     A pathname defined by the host operating system, which can be
     opened as a file and written to, but all the information written
     is discarded.  This is commonly known as a "bit bucket" or "null
     device".  If you do not define this macro, GCC will use
     `/dev/null' as the bit bucket.  If the host does not support a bit
     bucket, define this macro to an invalid filename.

`COLLECT2_HOST_INITIALIZATION'
     If defined, a C statement (sans semicolon) that performs
     host-dependent initialization when `collect2' is being initialized.

`GCC_DRIVER_HOST_INITIALIZATION'
     If defined, a C statement (sans semicolon) that performs
     host-dependent initialization when a compilation driver is being
     initialized.

`UPDATE_PATH_HOST_CANONICALIZE (PATH)'
     If defined, a C statement (sans semicolon) that performs
     host-dependent canonicalization when a path used in a compilation
     driver or preprocessor is canonicalized.  PATH is a malloc-ed path
     to be canonicalized.  If the C statement does canonicalize PATH
     into a different buffer, the old path should be freed and the new
     buffer should have been allocated with malloc.

`DUMPFILE_FORMAT'
     Define this macro to be a C string representing the format to use
     for constructing the index part of debugging dump file names.  The
     resultant string must fit in fifteen bytes.  The full filename
     will be the concatenation of: the prefix of the assembler file
     name, the string resulting from applying this format to an index
     number, and a string unique to each dump file kind, e.g. `rtl'.

     If you do not define this macro, GCC will use `.%02d.'.  You should
     define this macro if using the default will create an invalid file
     name.

`SMALL_ARG_MAX'
     Define this macro if the host system has a small limit on the total
     size of an argument vector.  This causes the driver to take more
     care not to pass unnecessary arguments to subprocesses.

   In addition, if `configure' generates an incorrect definition of any
of the macros in `auto-host.h', you can override that definition in a
host configuration header.  If you need to do this, first see if it is
possible to fix `configure'.

   If you need to define only a few of these macros, and they have
simple definitions, consider using the `xm_defines' variable in your
`config.gcc' entry instead of creating a host configuration header.
*Note System Config::.

Makefile Fragments
******************

When you configure GCC using the `configure' script, it will construct
the file `Makefile' from the template file `Makefile.in'.  When it does
this, it can incorporate makefile fragments from the `config'
directory.  These are used to set Makefile parameters that are not
amenable to being calculated by autoconf.  The list of fragments to
incorporate is set by `config.gcc'; *Note System Config::.

   Fragments are named either `t-TARGET' or `x-HOST', depending on
whether they are relevant to configuring GCC to produce code for a
particular target, or to configuring GCC to run on a particular host.
Here TARGET and HOST are mnemonics which usually have some relationship
to the canonical system name, but no formal connection.

   If these files do not exist, it means nothing needs to be added for a
given target or host.  Most targets need a few `t-TARGET' fragments,
but needing `x-HOST' fragments is rare.

* Menu:

* Target Fragment:: Writing `t-TARGET' files.
* Host Fragment::   Writing `x-HOST' files.


File: i960-rtems-gccint.info,  Node: Target Fragment,  Next: Host Fragment,  Up: Fragments

Target Makefile Fragments
=========================

Target makefile fragments can set these Makefile variables.

`LIBGCC2_CFLAGS'
     Compiler flags to use when compiling `libgcc2.c'.

`LIB2FUNCS_EXTRA'
     A list of source file names to be compiled or assembled and
     inserted into `libgcc.a'.

`Floating Point Emulation'
     To have GCC include software floating point libraries in `libgcc.a'
     define `FPBIT' and `DPBIT' along with a few rules as follows:
          # We want fine grained libraries, so use the new code
          # to build the floating point emulation libraries.
          FPBIT = fp-bit.c
          DPBIT = dp-bit.c
          
          
          fp-bit.c: $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c
                  echo '#define FLOAT' > fp-bit.c
                  cat $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c >> fp-bit.c
          
          dp-bit.c: $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c
                  cat $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c > dp-bit.c

     You may need to provide additional #defines at the beginning of
     `fp-bit.c' and `dp-bit.c' to control target endianness and other
     options.

`CRTSTUFF_T_CFLAGS'
     Special flags used when compiling `crtstuff.c'.  *Note
     Initialization::.

`CRTSTUFF_T_CFLAGS_S'
     Special flags used when compiling `crtstuff.c' for shared linking.
     Used if you use `crtbeginS.o' and `crtendS.o' in `EXTRA-PARTS'.
     *Note Initialization::.

`MULTILIB_OPTIONS'
     For some targets, invoking GCC in different ways produces objects
     that can not be linked together.  For example, for some targets GCC
     produces both big and little endian code.  For these targets, you
     must arrange for multiple versions of `libgcc.a' to be compiled,
     one for each set of incompatible options.  When GCC invokes the
     linker, it arranges to link in the right version of `libgcc.a',
     based on the command line options used.

     The `MULTILIB_OPTIONS' macro lists the set of options for which
     special versions of `libgcc.a' must be built.  Write options that
     are mutually incompatible side by side, separated by a slash.
     Write options that may be used together separated by a space.  The
     build procedure will build all combinations of compatible options.

     For example, if you set `MULTILIB_OPTIONS' to `m68000/m68020
     msoft-float', `Makefile' will build special versions of `libgcc.a'
     using the following sets of options:  `-m68000', `-m68020',
     `-msoft-float', `-m68000 -msoft-float', and `-m68020 -msoft-float'.

`MULTILIB_DIRNAMES'
     If `MULTILIB_OPTIONS' is used, this variable specifies the
     directory names that should be used to hold the various libraries.
     Write one element in `MULTILIB_DIRNAMES' for each element in
     `MULTILIB_OPTIONS'.  If `MULTILIB_DIRNAMES' is not used, the
     default value will be `MULTILIB_OPTIONS', with all slashes treated
     as spaces.

     For example, if `MULTILIB_OPTIONS' is set to `m68000/m68020
     msoft-float', then the default value of `MULTILIB_DIRNAMES' is
     `m68000 m68020 msoft-float'.  You may specify a different value if
     you desire a different set of directory names.

`MULTILIB_MATCHES'
     Sometimes the same option may be written in two different ways.
     If an option is listed in `MULTILIB_OPTIONS', GCC needs to know
     about any synonyms.  In that case, set `MULTILIB_MATCHES' to a
     list of items of the form `option=option' to describe all relevant
     synonyms.  For example, `m68000=mc68000 m68020=mc68020'.

`MULTILIB_EXCEPTIONS'
     Sometimes when there are multiple sets of `MULTILIB_OPTIONS' being
     specified, there are combinations that should not be built.  In
     that case, set `MULTILIB_EXCEPTIONS' to be all of the switch
     exceptions in shell case syntax that should not be built.

     For example, in the PowerPC embedded ABI support, it is not
     desirable to build libraries compiled with the `-mcall-aix' option
     and either of the `-fleading-underscore' or `-mlittle' options at
     the same time.  Therefore `MULTILIB_EXCEPTIONS' is set to
          *mcall-aix/*fleading-underscore* *mlittle/*mcall-aix*

`MULTILIB_EXTRA_OPTS'
     Sometimes it is desirable that when building multiple versions of
     `libgcc.a' certain options should always be passed on to the
     compiler.  In that case, set `MULTILIB_EXTRA_OPTS' to be the list
     of options to be used for all builds.

Host Makefile Fragments
=======================

The use of `x-HOST' fragments is discouraged.  You should do so only if
there is no other mechanism to get the behavior desired.  Host
fragments should never forcibly override variables set by the configure
script, as they may have been adjusted by the user.

   Variables provided for host fragments to set include:

`X_CFLAGS'
`X_CPPFLAGS'
     These are extra flags to pass to the C compiler and preprocessor,
     respectively.  They are used both when building GCC, and when
     compiling things with the just-built GCC.

`XCFLAGS'
     These are extra flags to use when building the compiler.  They are
     not used when compiling `libgcc.a'.  However, they _are_ used when
     recompiling the compiler with itself in later stages of a
     bootstrap.

`BOOT_LDFLAGS'
     Flags to be passed to the linker when recompiling the compiler with
     itself in later stages of a bootstrap.  You might need to use this
     if, for instance, one of the front ends needs more text space than
     the linker provides by default.

`EXTRA_PROGRAMS'
     A list of additional programs required to use the compiler on this
     host, which should be compiled with GCC and installed alongside
     the front ends.  If you set this variable, you must also provide
     rules to build the extra programs.

`collect2'
**********

GNU CC uses a utility called `collect2' on nearly all systems to arrange
to call various initialization functions at start time.

   The program `collect2' works by linking the program once and looking
through the linker output file for symbols with particular names
indicating they are constructor functions.  If it finds any, it creates
a new temporary `.c' file containing a table of them, compiles it, and
links the program a second time including that file.

   The actual calls to the constructors are carried out by a subroutine
called `__main', which is called (automatically) at the beginning of
the body of `main' (provided `main' was compiled with GNU CC).  Calling
`__main' is necessary, even when compiling C code, to allow linking C
and C++ object code together.  (If you use `-nostdlib', you get an
unresolved reference to `__main', since it's defined in the standard
GCC library.  Include `-lgcc' at the end of your compiler command line
to resolve this reference.)

   The program `collect2' is installed as `ld' in the directory where
the passes of the compiler are installed.  When `collect2' needs to
find the _real_ `ld', it tries the following file names:

   * `real-ld' in the directories listed in the compiler's search
     directories.

   * `real-ld' in the directories listed in the environment variable
     `PATH'.

   * The file specified in the `REAL_LD_FILE_NAME' configuration macro,
     if specified.

   * `ld' in the compiler's search directories, except that `collect2'
     will not execute itself recursively.

   * `ld' in `PATH'.

   "The compiler's search directories" means all the directories where
`gcc' searches for passes of the compiler.  This includes directories
that you specify with `-B'.

   Cross-compilers search a little differently:

   * `real-ld' in the compiler's search directories.

   * `TARGET-real-ld' in `PATH'.

   * The file specified in the `REAL_LD_FILE_NAME' configuration macro,
     if specified.

   * `ld' in the compiler's search directories.

   * `TARGET-ld' in `PATH'.

   `collect2' explicitly avoids running `ld' using the file name under
which `collect2' itself was invoked.  In fact, it remembers up a list
of such names--in case one copy of `collect2' finds another copy (or
version) of `collect2' installed as `ld' in a second place in the
search path.

   `collect2' searches for the utilities `nm' and `strip' using the
same algorithm as above for `ld'.

Standard Header File Directories
********************************

`GCC_INCLUDE_DIR' means the same thing for native and cross.  It is
where GNU CC stores its private include files, and also where GNU CC
stores the fixed include files.  A cross compiled GNU CC runs
`fixincludes' on the header files in `$(tooldir)/include'.  (If the
cross compilation header files need to be fixed, they must be installed
before GNU CC is built.  If the cross compilation header files are
already suitable for ISO C and GNU CC, nothing special need be done).

   `GPLUSPLUS_INCLUDE_DIR' means the same thing for native and cross.
It is where `g++' looks first for header files.  The C++ library
installs only target independent header files in that directory.

   `LOCAL_INCLUDE_DIR' is used only by native compilers.  GNU CC
doesn't install anything there.  It is normally `/usr/local/include'.
This is where local additions to a packaged system should place header
files.

   `CROSS_INCLUDE_DIR' is used only by cross compilers.  GNU CC doesn't
install anything there.

   `TOOL_INCLUDE_DIR' is used for both native and cross compilers.  It
is the place for other packages to install header files that GNU CC will
use.  For a cross-compiler, this is the equivalent of `/usr/include'.
When you build a cross-compiler, `fixincludes' processes any header
files in this directory.

Funding Free Software
*********************

If you want to have more free software a few years from now, it makes
sense for you to help encourage people to contribute funds for its
development.  The most effective approach known is to encourage
commercial redistributors to donate.

   Users of free software systems can boost the pace of development by
encouraging for-a-fee distributors to donate part of their selling price
to free software developers--the Free Software Foundation, and others.

   The way to convince distributors to do this is to demand it and
expect it from them.  So when you compare distributors, judge them
partly by how much they give to free software development.  Show
distributors they must compete to be the one who gives the most.

   To make this approach work, you must insist on numbers that you can
compare, such as, "We will donate ten dollars to the Frobnitz project
for each disk sold."  Don't be satisfied with a vague promise, such as
"A portion of the profits are donated," since it doesn't give a basis
for comparison.

   Even a precise fraction "of the profits from this disk" is not very
meaningful, since creative accounting and unrelated business decisions
can greatly alter what fraction of the sales price counts as profit.
If the price you pay is $50, ten percent of the profit is probably less
than a dollar; it might be a few cents, or nothing at all.

   Some redistributors do development work themselves.  This is useful
too; but to keep everyone honest, you need to inquire how much they do,
and what kind.  Some kinds of development make much more long-term
difference than others.  For example, maintaining a separate version of
a program contributes very little; maintaining the standard version of a
program for the whole community contributes much.  Easy new ports
contribute little, since someone else would surely do them; difficult
ports such as adding a new CPU to the GNU Compiler Collection
contribute more; major new features or packages contribute the most.

   By establishing the idea that supporting further development is "the
proper thing to do" when distributing free software for a fee, we can
assure a steady flow of resources into making more free software.

The GNU Project and GNU/Linux
*****************************

The GNU Project was launched in 1984 to develop a complete Unix-like
operating system which is free software: the GNU system.  (GNU is a
recursive acronym for "GNU's Not Unix"; it is pronounced "guh-NEW".)
Variants of the GNU operating system, which use the kernel Linux, are
now widely used; though these systems are often referred to as "Linux",
they are more accurately called GNU/Linux systems.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
**************************

                         Version 2, June 1991
     Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
     59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA
     
     Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
     of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

Preamble
========

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom
to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public License is
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
your programs, too.

   When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in
new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.

   To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.

   For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
rights.

   We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software,
and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
distribute and/or modify the software.

   Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
authors' reputations.

   Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.

   The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow.

    TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a
     notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
     under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program",
     below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on
     the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under
     copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a
     portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or
     translated into another language.  (Hereinafter, translation is
     included without limitation in the term "modification".)  Each
     licensee is addressed as "you".

     Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are
     not covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act
     of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the
     Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on
     the Program (independent of having been made by running the
     Program).  Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
     source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
     conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
     copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
     notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
     warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of
     this License along with the Program.

     You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
     and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange
     for a fee.

  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
     of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
     distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
     above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

       a. You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
          stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

       b. You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that
          in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program
          or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge
          to all third parties under the terms of this License.

       c. If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
          when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
          interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display
          an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and
          a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you
          provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the
          program under these conditions, and telling the user how to
          view a copy of this License.  (Exception: if the Program
          itself is interactive but does not normally print such an
          announcement, your work based on the Program is not required
          to print an announcement.)

     These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
     identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the
     Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate
     works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not
     apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate
     works.  But when you distribute the same sections as part of a
     whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of
     the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions
     for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each
     and every part regardless of who wrote it.

     Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or
     contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the
     intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of
     derivative or collective works based on the Program.

     In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the
     Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on
     a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the
     other work under the scope of this License.

  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
     under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms
     of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the
     following:

       a. Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
          source code, which must be distributed under the terms of
          Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for
          software interchange; or,

       b. Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
          years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
          cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
          machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
          distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
          medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

       c. Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
          to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
          allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
          received the program in object code or executable form with
          such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

     The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
     making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete
     source code means all the source code for all modules it contains,
     plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts
     used to control compilation and installation of the executable.
     However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need
     not include anything that is normally distributed (in either
     source or binary form) with the major components (compiler,
     kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable
     runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.

     If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
     access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
     access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
     distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
     compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
     except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
     otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
     void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this
     License.  However, parties who have received copies, or rights,
     from you under this License will not have their licenses
     terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
     signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify
     or distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions
     are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.
     Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work
     based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this
     License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
     distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.

  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
     Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
     original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program
     subject to these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any
     further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights
     granted herein.  You are not responsible for enforcing compliance
     by third parties to this License.

  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
     infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent
     issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order,
     agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this
     License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this
     License.  If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously
     your obligations under this License and any other pertinent
     obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the
     Program at all.  For example, if a patent license would not permit
     royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who
     receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only
     way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain
     entirely from distribution of the Program.

     If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable
     under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is
     intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply
     in other circumstances.

     It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
     patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of
     any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting
     the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
     implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
     generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
     through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
     system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is
     willing to distribute software through any other system and a
     licensee cannot impose that choice.

     This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed
     to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
     certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces,
     the original copyright holder who places the Program under this
     License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation
     excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only
     in or among countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this
     License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of
     this License.

  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
     versions of the General Public License from time to time.  Such
     new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but
     may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

     Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
     Program specifies a version number of this License which applies
     to it and "any later version", you have the option of following
     the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later
     version published by the Free Software Foundation.  If the Program
     does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose
     any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
     programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the
     author to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted
     by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software
     Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.  Our decision
     will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of
     all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
     and reuse of software generally.

                                NO WARRANTY

 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
     WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
     LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
     HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT
     WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT
     NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
     FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE
     QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
     PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY
     SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
     WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY
     MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE
     LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,
     INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR
     INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
     DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU
     OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY
     OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN
     ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

                      END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
=============================================

If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these
terms.

   To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

     ONE LINE TO GIVE THE PROGRAM'S NAME AND A BRIEF IDEA OF WHAT IT DOES.
     Copyright (C) YEAR  NAME OF AUTHOR
     
     This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
     it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
     the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
     (at your option) any later version.
     
     This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
     but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
     MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
     GNU General Public License for more details.
     
     You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
     along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
     Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place - Suite 330,
     Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA.

   Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper
mail.

   If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like
this when it starts in an interactive mode:

     Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) YEAR NAME OF AUTHOR
     Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details
     type `show w'.
     This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
     under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.

   The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the
appropriate parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the
commands you use may be called something other than `show w' and `show
c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your
program.

   You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or
your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program,
if necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:

     Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
     `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
     
     SIGNATURE OF TY COON, 1 April 1989
     Ty Coon, President of Vice

   This General Public License does not permit incorporating your
program into proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine
library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary
applications with the library.  If this is what you want to do, use the
GNU Library General Public License instead of this License.
