C-SKY Options

GCC supports these options when compiling for C-SKY V2 processors.

-march=arch

Specify the C-SKY target architecture. Valid values for arch are: ck801, ck802, ck803, ck807, and ck810. The default is ck810.

-mcpu=cpu

Specify the C-SKY target processor. Valid values for cpu are: ck801, ck801t, ck802, ck802t, ck802j, ck803, ck803h, ck803t, ck803ht, ck803f, ck803fh, ck803e, ck803eh, ck803et, ck803eht, ck803ef, ck803efh, ck803ft, ck803eft, ck803efht, ck803r1, ck803hr1, ck803tr1, ck803htr1, ck803fr1, ck803fhr1, ck803er1, ck803ehr1, ck803etr1, ck803ehtr1, ck803efr1, ck803efhr1, ck803ftr1, ck803eftr1, ck803efhtr1, ck803s, ck803st, ck803se, ck803sf, ck803sef, ck803seft, ck807e, ck807ef, ck807, ck807f, ck810e, ck810et, ck810ef, ck810eft, ck810, ck810v, ck810f, ck810t, ck810fv, ck810tv, ck810ft, and ck810ftv.

-mbig-endian, -EB, -mlittle-endian, -EL

Select big- or little-endian code. The default is little-endian.

-mfloat-abi=name

Specifies which floating-point ABI to use. Permissible values are: soft, softfp and hard.

Specifying soft causes GCC to generate output containing library calls for floating-point operations. softfp allows the generation of code using hardware floating-point instructions, but still uses the soft-float calling conventions. hard allows generation of floating-point instructions and uses FPU-specific calling conventions.

The default depends on the specific target configuration. Note that the hard-float and soft-float ABIs are not link-compatible; you must compile your entire program with the same ABI, and link with a compatible set of libraries.

-mhard-float, -msoft-float

Select hardware or software floating-point implementations. The default is soft float.

-mdouble-float, -mno-double-float

When -mhard-float is in effect, enable generation of double-precision float instructions. This is the default except when compiling for CK803.

-mfdivdu, -mno-fdivdu

When -mhard-float is in effect, enable generation of frecipd, fsqrtd, and fdivd instructions. This is the default except when compiling for CK803.

-mfpu=fpu

Select the floating-point processor. This option can only be used with -mhard-float. Values for fpu are fpv2_sf (equivalent to -mno-double-float -mno-fdivdu), fpv2 (-mdouble-float -mno-divdu), and fpv2_divd (-mdouble-float -mdivdu).

-melrw, -mno-elrw

Enable the extended lrw instruction. This option defaults to on for CK801 and off otherwise.

-mistack, -mno-istack

Enable interrupt stack instructions; the default is off.

The -mistack option is required to handle the interrupt and isr function attributes (see C-SKY Function Attributes).

-mmp

Enable multiprocessor instructions; the default is off.

-mcp

Enable coprocessor instructions; the default is off.

-mcache

Enable coprocessor instructions; the default is off.

-msecurity

Enable C-SKY security instructions; the default is off.

-mtrust

Enable C-SKY trust instructions; the default is off.

-mdsp, -medsp, -mvdsp

Enable C-SKY DSP, Enhanced DSP, or Vector DSP instructions, respectively. All of these options default to off.

-mdiv, -mno-div

Generate divide instructions. Default is off.

-msmart, -mno-smart

Generate code for Smart Mode, using only registers numbered 0-7 to allow use of 16-bit instructions. This option is ignored for CK801 where this is the required behavior, and it defaults to on for CK802. For other targets, the default is off.

-mhigh-registers, -mno-high-registers

Generate code using the high registers numbered 16-31. This option is not supported on CK801, CK802, or CK803, and is enabled by default for other processors.

-manchor, -mno-anchor

Generate code using global anchor symbol addresses.

-mpushpop, -mno-pushpop

Generate code using push and pop instructions. This option defaults to on.

-mmultiple-stld, -mstm, -mno-multiple-stld, -mno-stm

Generate code using stm and ldm instructions. This option isn’t supported on CK801 but is enabled by default on other processors.

-mconstpool, -mno-constpool

Create constant pools in the compiler instead of deferring it to the assembler. This option is the default and required for correct code generation on CK801 and CK802, and is optional on other processors.

-mstack-size, -mno-stack-size

Emit .stack_size directives for each function in the assembly output. This option defaults to off.

-mstack-size

Default setting; overrides -mno-stack-size.

-mccrt, -mno-ccrt

Generate code for the C-SKY compiler runtime instead of libgcc. This option defaults to off.

-mbranch-cost=n

Set the branch costs to roughly n instructions. The default is 1.

-msched-prolog, -mno-sched-prolog

Permit scheduling of function prologue and epilogue sequences. Using this option can result in code that is not compliant with the C-SKY V2 ABI prologue requirements and that cannot be debugged or backtraced. It is disabled by default.

-msim

Links the library libsemi.a which is in compatible with simulator. Applicable to ELF compiler only.
