 | |
| <p>The <span class="sc">mips</span> configurations of <span class="sc">gnu</span> <code>as</code> support these

 | |
| <dl><dt><code>-G </code><var>num</var><dd>This option sets the largest size of an object that can be referenced

 | |
| little-endian output at run time (unlike the other <span class="sc">gnu</span> development
 | |
| tools, which must be configured for one or the other).  Use <span class="samp">-EB</span>
 | |

 | |
| SVR4-style position-independent macro expansions.  It also tells the
 | |
| assembler to mark the output file as PIC.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mvxworks-pic</code><dd><a name="index-_0040option_007b_002dmvxworks_002dpic_007d-option_002c-MIPS-1203"></a>Generate VxWorks PIC.  This option tells the assembler to generate

 | |

 | |
| ISA processors, respectively.  You can also switch
 | |
| instruction sets during the assembly; see <a href="MIPS-ISA.html#MIPS-ISA">Directives to override the ISA level</a>.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mgp32</code><dt><code>-mfp32</code><dd>Some macros have different expansions for 32-bit and 64-bit registers. 
 | |
| The register sizes are normally inferred from the ISA and ABI, but these
 | |
| flags force a certain group of registers to be treated as 32 bits wide at
 | |
| all times.  <span class="samp">-mgp32</span> controls the size of general-purpose registers
 | |
| and <span class="samp">-mfp32</span> controls the size of floating-point registers.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <p>The <code>.set gp=32</code> and <code>.set fp=32</code> directives allow the size
 | |
| of registers to be changed for parts of an object. The default value is
 | |
| restored by <code>.set gp=default</code> and <code>.set fp=default</code>.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <p>On some MIPS variants there is a 32-bit mode flag; when this flag is
 | |
| set, 64-bit instructions generate a trap.  Also, some 32-bit OSes only
 | |
| save the 32-bit registers on a context switch, so it is essential never
 | |
| to use the 64-bit registers.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mgp64</code><dt><code>-mfp64</code><dd>Assume that 64-bit registers are available.  This is provided in the
 | |
| interests of symmetry with <span class="samp">-mgp32</span> and <span class="samp">-mfp32</span>.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <p>The <code>.set gp=64</code> and <code>.set fp=64</code> directives allow the size
 | |
| of registers to be changed for parts of an object. The default value is
 | |
| restored by <code>.set gp=default</code> and <code>.set fp=default</code>.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mips16</code><dt><code>-no-mips16</code><dd>Generate code for the MIPS 16 processor.  This is equivalent to putting
 | |
| <code>.set mips16</code> at the start of the assembly file.  <span class="samp">-no-mips16</span>
 | |
| turns off this option.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-msmartmips</code><dt><code>-mno-smartmips</code><dd>Enables the SmartMIPS extensions to the MIPS32 instruction set, which
 | |
| provides a number of new instructions which target smartcard and
 | |
| cryptographic applications.  This is equivalent to putting
 | |
| <code>.set smartmips</code> at the start of the assembly file. 
 | |
| <span class="samp">-mno-smartmips</span> turns off this option.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mips3d</code><dt><code>-no-mips3d</code><dd>Generate code for the MIPS-3D Application Specific Extension. 
 | |
| This tells the assembler to accept MIPS-3D instructions. 
 | |
| <span class="samp">-no-mips3d</span> turns off this option.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mdmx</code><dt><code>-no-mdmx</code><dd>Generate code for the MDMX Application Specific Extension. 
 | |
| This tells the assembler to accept MDMX instructions. 
 | |
| <span class="samp">-no-mdmx</span> turns off this option.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mdsp</code><dt><code>-mno-dsp</code><dd>Generate code for the DSP Release 1 Application Specific Extension. 
 | |
| This tells the assembler to accept DSP Release 1 instructions. 
 | |
| <span class="samp">-mno-dsp</span> turns off this option.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mdspr2</code><dt><code>-mno-dspr2</code><dd>Generate code for the DSP Release 2 Application Specific Extension. 
 | |
| This option implies -mdsp. 
 | |
| This tells the assembler to accept DSP Release 2 instructions. 
 | |
| <span class="samp">-mno-dspr2</span> turns off this option.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mmt</code><dt><code>-mno-mt</code><dd>Generate code for the MT Application Specific Extension. 
 | |
| This tells the assembler to accept MT instructions. 
 | |
| <span class="samp">-mno-mt</span> turns off this option.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mfix7000</code><dt><code>-mno-fix7000</code><dd>Cause nops to be inserted if the read of the destination register
 | |
| of an mfhi or mflo instruction occurs in the following two instructions.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mfix-vr4120</code><dt><code>-no-mfix-vr4120</code><dd>Insert nops to work around certain VR4120 errata.  This option is
 | |
| intended to be used on GCC-generated code: it is not designed to catch
 | |
| all problems in hand-written assembler code.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-mfix-vr4130</code><dt><code>-no-mfix-vr4130</code><dd>Insert nops to work around the VR4130 <span class="samp">mflo</span>/<span class="samp">mfhi</span> errata.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-m4010</code><dt><code>-no-m4010</code><dd>Generate code for the LSI <span class="sc">r4010</span> chip.  This tells the assembler to
 | |
| accept the <span class="sc">r4010</span> specific instructions (<span class="samp">addciu</span>, <span class="samp">ffc</span>,
 | |
| etc.), and to not schedule <span class="samp">nop</span> instructions around accesses to
 | |
| the <span class="samp">HI</span> and <span class="samp">LO</span> registers.  <span class="samp">-no-m4010</span> turns off this
 | |
| option.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-m4650</code><dt><code>-no-m4650</code><dd>Generate code for the MIPS <span class="sc">r4650</span> chip.  This tells the assembler to accept
 | |
| the <span class="samp">mad</span> and <span class="samp">madu</span> instruction, and to not schedule <span class="samp">nop</span>
 | |
| instructions around accesses to the <span class="samp">HI</span> and <span class="samp">LO</span> registers. 
 | |
| <span class="samp">-no-m4650</span> turns off this option.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <dt><code>-m3900</code><dt><code>-no-m3900</code><dt><code>-m4100</code><dt><code>-no-m4100</code><dd>For each option <span class="samp">-m</span><var>nnnn</var>, generate code for the MIPS
 | |
| <span class="sc">r</span><var>nnnn</var> chip.  This tells the assembler to accept instructions
 | |
| specific to that chip, and to schedule for that chip's hazards.
 | |
| 
 | |
|      <br><dt><code>-march=</code><var>cpu</var><dd>Generate code for a particular MIPS cpu.  It is exactly equivalent to

 | |
| the double width register.  This feature is useful if the processor
