<h4 class="subsection">9.30.1 Options</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p><a name="index-options-for-SPARC-1493"></a><a name="index-SPARC-options-1494"></a><a name="index-architectures_002c-SPARC-1495"></a><a name="index-SPARC-architectures-1496"></a>The SPARC chip family includes several successive versions, using the same
|
|
core instruction set, but including a few additional instructions at
|
|
each version. There are exceptions to this however. For details on what
|
|
instructions each variant supports, please see the chip's architecture
|
|
reference manual.
|
|
|
|
<p>By default, <code>as</code> assumes the core instruction set (SPARC
|
|
v6), but “bumps” the architecture level as needed: it switches to
|
|
successively higher architectures as it encounters instructions that
|
|
only exist in the higher levels.
|
|
|
|
<p>If not configured for SPARC v9 (<code>sparc64-*-*</code>) GAS will not bump
|
|
past sparclite by default, an option must be passed to enable the
|
|
v9 instructions.
|
|
|
|
<p>GAS treats sparclite as being compatible with v8, unless an architecture
|
|
is explicitly requested. SPARC v9 is always incompatible with sparclite.
|
|
|
|
<!-- The order here is the same as the order of enum sparc_opcode_arch_val -->
|
|
<!-- to give the user a sense of the order of the "bumping". -->

<dl><dt><code>-Av6 | -Av7 | -Av8 | -Asparclet | -Asparclite</code><dt><code>-Av8plus | -Av8plusa | -Av9 | -Av9a</code><dd>Use one of the <span class="samp">-A</span> options to select one of the SPARC
|
|
architectures explicitly. If you select an architecture explicitly,
|
|
<code>as</code> reports a fatal error if it encounters an instruction
|
|
or feature requiring an incompatible or higher level.
|
|
|
|
<p><span class="samp">-Av8plus</span> and <span class="samp">-Av8plusa</span> select a 32 bit environment.
|
|
|
|
<p><span class="samp">-Av9</span> and <span class="samp">-Av9a</span> select a 64 bit environment and are not
|
|
available unless GAS is explicitly configured with 64 bit environment
|
|
support.
|
|
|
|
<p><span class="samp">-Av8plusa</span> and <span class="samp">-Av9a</span> enable the SPARC V9 instruction set with
|
|
UltraSPARC extensions.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>-xarch=v8plus | -xarch=v8plusa</code><dd>For compatibility with the SunOS v9 assembler. These options are
|
|
equivalent to -Av8plus and -Av8plusa, respectively.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>-bump</code><dd>Warn whenever it is necessary to switch to another level.
|
|
If an architecture level is explicitly requested, GAS will not issue
|
|
warnings until that level is reached, and will then bump the level
|
|
as required (except between incompatible levels).
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>-32 | -64</code><dd>Select the word size, either 32 bits or 64 bits.
|
|
These options are only available with the ELF object file format,
|
|
and require that the necessary BFD support has been included.
