M32R/D Options (Using the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC))

#### 3.20.25 M32R/D Options ¶

These `-m` options are defined for Renesas M32R/D architectures:

`-m32r2` ¶

  Generate code for the M32R/2.

`-m32rx` ¶

  Generate code for the M32R/X.

`-m32r` ¶

  Generate code for the M32R. This is the default.

`-mmodel=small` ¶

  Assume all objects live in the lower 16MB of memory (so that their addresses can be loaded with the `ld24` instruction), and assume all subroutines are reachable with the `bl` instruction. This is the default.

  The addressability of a particular object can be set with the `model` attribute.

`-mmodel=medium` ¶

  Assume objects may be anywhere in the 32-bit address space (the compiler generates `seth/add3` instructions to load their addresses), and assume all subroutines are reachable with the `bl` instruction.

`-mmodel=large` ¶

  Assume objects may be anywhere in the 32-bit address space (the compiler generates `seth/add3` instructions to load their addresses), and assume subroutines may not be reachable with the `bl` instruction (the compiler generates the much slower `seth/add3/jl` instruction sequence).

`-msdata=none` ¶

  Disable use of the small data area. Variables are put into one of `.data`, `.bss`, or `.rodata` (unless the `section` attribute has been specified). This is the default.

  The small data area consists of sections `.sdata` and `.sbss`. Objects may be explicitly put in the small data area with the `section` attribute using one of these sections.

`-msdata=sdata` ¶

  Put small global and static data in the small data area, but do not generate special code to reference them.

`-msdata=use` ¶

  Put small global and static data in the small data area, and generate special instructions to reference them.

`-G num` ¶

  Put global and static objects less than or equal to num bytes into the small data or BSS sections instead of the normal data or BSS sections. The default value of num is 8. The `-msdata` option must be set to one of ‘`sdata`’ or ‘`use`’ for this option to have any effect.

  All modules should be compiled with the same `-G num` value. Compiling with different values of num may or may not work; if it doesn’t the linker gives an error message—incorrect code is not generated.

`-mdebug` ¶

  Makes the M32R-specific code in the compiler display some statistics that might help in debugging programs.

`-malign-loops` ¶
`-mno-align-loops`

  Align all loops to a 32-byte boundary. This option is disabled by default.

`-missue-rate=number` ¶

  Issue number instructions per cycle. number can only be 1 or 2.

`-mbranch-cost=number` ¶

  number can only be 1 or 2. If it is 1 then branches are preferred over conditional code, if it is 2, then the opposite applies.

`-mflush-trap=number` ¶

  Specifies the trap number to use to flush the cache. The default is 12. Valid numbers are between 0 and 15 inclusive.

`-mno-flush-trap` ¶

  Specifies that the cache cannot be flushed by using a trap.

`-mflush-func=name` ¶

  Specifies the name of the operating system function to call to flush the cache. The default is ‘`_flush_cache`’, but a function call is only used if a trap is not available.

`-mno-flush-func` ¶

  Indicates that there is no OS function for flushing the cache.
