</p>
</dd>
</dl>

</dd>
<dt><code>-mabsdata</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mabsdata"></a>

<p>Assume that all data in static storage can be accessed by LDS / STS
instructions.  This option has only an effect on reduced Tiny devices like
ATtiny40.  See also the <code>absdata</code>
<a href="AVR-Variable-Attributes.html#AVR-Variable-Attributes">variable attribute</a>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-maccumulate-args</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-maccumulate_002dargs"></a>
<p>Accumulate outgoing function arguments and acquire/release the needed
stack space for outgoing function arguments once in function
prologue/epilogue.  Without this option, outgoing arguments are pushed
before calling a function and popped afterwards.
</p>
<p>Popping the arguments after the function call can be expensive on
AVR so that accumulating the stack space might lead to smaller
executables because arguments need not be removed from the
stack after such a function call.
</p>
<p>This option can lead to reduced code size for functions that perform
several calls to functions that get their arguments on the stack like
calls to printf-like functions.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mbranch-cost=<var>cost</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mbranch_002dcost-1"></a>
<p>Set the branch costs for conditional branch instructions to
<var>cost</var>.  Reasonable values for <var>cost</var> are small, non-negative
integers. The default branch cost is 0.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mcall-prologues</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mcall_002dprologues"></a>
<p>Functions prologues/epilogues are expanded as calls to appropriate
subroutines.  Code size is smaller.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mdouble=<var>bits</var></code></dt>
<dt><code>-mlong-double=<var>bits</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mdouble"></a>
<a name="index-mlong_002ddouble"></a>
<p>Set the size (in bits) of the <code>double</code> or <code>long double</code> type,
respectively.  Possible values for <var>bits</var> are 32 and 64.
Whether or not a specific value for <var>bits</var> is allowed depends on
the <code>--with-double=</code> and <code>--with-long-double=</code>
<a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html#avr">configure&nbsp;options</a><!-- /@w -->,
and the same applies for the default values of the options.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mgas-isr-prologues</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mgas_002disr_002dprologues"></a>
<p>Interrupt service routines (ISRs) may use the <code>__gcc_isr</code> pseudo
instruction supported by GNU Binutils.
If this option is on, the feature can still be disabled for individual
ISRs by means of the <a href="AVR-Function-Attributes.html#AVR-Function-Attributes"><code>no_gccisr</code></a>
function attribute.  This feature is activated per default
if optimization is on (but not with <samp>-Og</samp>, see <a href="Optimize-Options.html#Optimize-Options">Optimize Options</a>),
and if GNU Binutils support <a href="https://sourceware.org/PR21683">PR21683</a><!-- /@w -->.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mint8</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mint8"></a>
<p>Assume <code>int</code> to be 8-bit integer.  This affects the sizes of all types: a
<code>char</code> is 1 byte, an <code>int</code> is 1 byte, a <code>long</code> is 2 bytes,
and <code>long long</code> is 4 bytes.  Please note that this option does not
conform to the C standards, but it results in smaller code
size.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mmain-is-OS_task</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mmain_002dis_002dOS_005ftask"></a>
<p>Do not save registers in <code>main</code>.  The effect is the same like
attaching attribute <a href="AVR-Function-Attributes.html#AVR-Function-Attributes"><code>OS_task</code></a>
to <code>main</code>. It is activated per default if optimization is on.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mn-flash=<var>num</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mn_002dflash"></a>
<p>Assume that the flash memory has a size of 
<var>num</var> times 64&nbsp;KiB.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mno-interrupts</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mno_002dinterrupts"></a>
<p>Generated code is not compatible with hardware interrupts.
Code size is smaller.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mrelax</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mrelax"></a>
<p>Try to replace <code>CALL</code> resp. <code>JMP</code> instruction by the shorter
<code>RCALL</code> resp. <code>RJMP</code> instruction if applicable.
Setting <samp>-mrelax</samp> just adds the <samp>--mlink-relax</samp> option to
the assembler&rsquo;s command line and the <samp>--relax</samp> option to the
linker&rsquo;s command line.
</p>
<p>Jump relaxing is performed by the linker because jump offsets are not
known before code is located. Therefore, the assembler code generated by the
compiler is the same, but the instructions in the executable may
differ from instructions in the assembler code.
</p>
<p>Relaxing must be turned on if linker stubs are needed, see the
section on <code>EIND</code> and linker stubs below.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mrmw</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mrmw"></a>
<p>Assume that the device supports the Read-Modify-Write
instructions <code>XCH</code>, <code>LAC</code>, <code>LAS</code> and <code>LAT</code>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mshort-calls</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mshort_002dcalls"></a>

<p>Assume that <code>RJMP</code> and <code>RCALL</code> can target the whole
program memory.
</p>
<p>This option is used internally for multilib selection.  It is
not an optimization option, and you don&rsquo;t need to set it by hand.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-msp8</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-msp8"></a>
<p>Treat the stack pointer register as an 8-bit register,
i.e. assume the high byte of the stack pointer is zero.
In general, you don&rsquo;t need to set this option by hand.
</p>
<p>This option is used internally by the compiler to select and
build multilibs for architectures <code>avr2</code> and <code>avr25</code>.
These architectures mix devices with and without <code>SPH</code>.
For any setting other than <samp>-mmcu=avr2</samp> or <samp>-mmcu=avr25</samp>
the compiler driver adds or removes this option from the compiler
proper&rsquo;s command line, because the compiler then knows if the device
or architecture has an 8-bit stack pointer and thus no <code>SPH</code>
register or not.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mstrict-X</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mstrict_002dX"></a>
<p>Use address register <code>X</code> in a way proposed by the hardware.  This means
that <code>X</code> is only used in indirect, post-increment or
pre-decrement addressing.
</p>
<p>Without this option, the <code>X</code> register may be used in the same way
as <code>Y</code> or <code>Z</code> which then is emulated by additional
instructions.  
For example, loading a value with <code>X+const</code> addressing with a
small non-negative <code>const &lt; 64</code> to a register <var>Rn</var> is
performed as
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">adiw r26, const   ; X += const
ld   <var>Rn</var>, X        ; <var>Rn</var> = *X
sbiw r26, const   ; X -= const
</pre></div>

</dd>
<dt><code>-mtiny-stack</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mtiny_002dstack"></a>
<p>Only change the lower 8&nbsp;bits of the stack pointer.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-mfract-convert-truncate</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-mfract_002dconvert_002dtruncate"></a>
<p>Allow to use truncation instead of rounding towards zero for fractional fixed-point types.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-nodevicelib</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-nodevicelib"></a>
<p>Don&rsquo;t link against AVR-LibC&rsquo;s device specific library <code>lib&lt;mcu&gt;.a</code>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-nodevicespecs</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-nodevicespecs"></a>
<p>Don&rsquo;t add <samp>-specs=device-specs/specs-<var>mcu</var></samp> to the compiler driver&rsquo;s
command line.  The user takes responsibility for supplying the sub-processes

<h4 class="subsubsection">3.19.6.1 <code>EIND</code> and Devices with More Than 128 Ki Bytes of Flash</h4>
<a name="index-EIND"></a>
<p>Pointers in the implementation are 16&nbsp;bits wide.
The address of a function or label is represented as word address so
that indirect jumps and calls can target any code address in the
range of 64&nbsp;Ki words.
</p>
<p>In order to facilitate indirect jump on devices with more than 128&nbsp;Ki
bytes of program memory space, there is a special function register called
<code>EIND</code> that serves as most significant part of the target address
when <code>EICALL</code> or <code>EIJMP</code> instructions are used.
</p>
<p>Indirect jumps and calls on these devices are handled as follows by
the compiler and are subject to some limitations:
</p>
<ul>
<li> The compiler never sets <code>EIND</code>.

</li><li> The compiler uses <code>EIND</code> implicitly in <code>EICALL</code>/<code>EIJMP</code>
instructions or might read <code>EIND</code> directly in order to emulate an
indirect call/jump by means of a <code>RET</code> instruction.

</li><li> The compiler assumes that <code>EIND</code> never changes during the startup
code or during the application. In particular, <code>EIND</code> is not
saved/restored in function or interrupt service routine
prologue/epilogue.

</li><li> For indirect calls to functions and computed goto, the linker
generates <em>stubs</em>. Stubs are jump pads sometimes also called
<em>trampolines</em>. Thus, the indirect call/jump jumps to such a stub.
The stub contains a direct jump to the desired address.

</li><li> Linker relaxation must be turned on so that the linker generates
the stubs correctly in all situations. See the compiler option
<samp>-mrelax</samp> and the linker option <samp>--relax</samp>.
There are corner cases where the linker is supposed to generate stubs
but aborts without relaxation and without a helpful error message.

</li><li> The default linker script is arranged for code with <code>EIND = 0</code>.
If code is supposed to work for a setup with <code>EIND != 0</code>, a custom
linker script has to be used in order to place the sections whose
name start with <code>.trampolines</code> into the segment where <code>EIND</code>
points to.

</li><li> The startup code from libgcc never sets <code>EIND</code>.
Notice that startup code is a blend of code from libgcc and AVR-LibC.
For the impact of AVR-LibC on <code>EIND</code>, see the
<a href="http://nongnu.org/avr-libc/user-manual/"><span class="nolinebreak">AVR-LibC</span>&nbsp;user&nbsp;manual</a><!-- /@w -->.

</li><li> It is legitimate for user-specific startup code to set up <code>EIND</code>
early, for example by means of initialization code located in
section <code>.init3</code>. Such code runs prior to general startup code
that initializes RAM and calls constructors, but after the bit
of startup code from AVR-LibC that sets <code>EIND</code> to the segment
where the vector table is located.
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">#include &lt;avr/io.h&gt;

static void
__attribute__((section(&quot;.init3&quot;),naked,used,no_instrument_function))
init3_set_eind (void)
{
  __asm volatile (&quot;ldi r24,pm_hh8(__trampolines_start)\n\t&quot;
                  &quot;out %i0,r24&quot; :: &quot;n&quot; (&amp;EIND) : &quot;r24&quot;,&quot;memory&quot;);
}
</pre></div>

<p>The <code>__trampolines_start</code> symbol is defined in the linker script.
</p>
</li><li> Stubs are generated automatically by the linker if
the following two conditions are met:
<ul class="no-bullet">
<li>- The address of a label is taken by means of the <code>gs</code> modifier
(short for <em>generate stubs</em>) like so:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">LDI r24, lo8(gs(<var>func</var>))
LDI r25, hi8(gs(<var>func</var>))
</pre></div>
</li><li>- The final location of that label is in a code segment
<em>outside</em> the segment where the stubs are located.
</li></ul>

</li><li> The compiler emits such <code>gs</code> modifiers for code labels in the
following situations:
<ul class="no-bullet">
<li>- Taking address of a function or code label.
</li><li>- Computed goto.
</li><li>- If prologue-save function is used, see <samp>-mcall-prologues</samp>
command-line option.
</li><li>- Switch/case dispatch tables. If you do not want such dispatch
tables you can specify the <samp>-fno-jump-tables</samp> command-line option.
</li><li>- C and C++ constructors/destructors called during startup/shutdown.
</li><li>- If the tools hit a <code>gs()</code> modifier explained above.
</li></ul>

</li><li> Jumping to non-symbolic addresses like so is <em>not</em> supported:

<div class="example">
<pre class="example">int main (void)
{
    /* Call function at word address 0x2 */
    return ((int(*)(void)) 0x2)();
}
</pre></div>

<p>Instead, a stub has to be set up, i.e. the function has to be called
through a symbol (<code>func_4</code> in the example):
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">int main (void)
{
    extern int func_4 (void);

    /* Call function at byte address 0x4 */
    return func_4();
}
</pre></div>

<p>and the application be linked with <samp>-Wl,--defsym,func_4=0x4</samp>.
Alternatively, <code>func_4</code> can be defined in the linker script.
</p></li></ul>

<h4 class="subsubsection">3.19.6.2 Handling of the <code>RAMPD</code>, <code>RAMPX</code>, <code>RAMPY</code> and <code>RAMPZ</code> Special Function Registers</h4>
<a name="index-RAMPD"></a>
<a name="index-RAMPX"></a>
<a name="index-RAMPY"></a>
<a name="index-RAMPZ"></a>
<p>Some AVR devices support memories larger than the 64&nbsp;KiB range
that can be accessed with 16-bit pointers.  To access memory locations
outside this 64&nbsp;KiB range, the content of a <code>RAMP</code>
register is used as high part of the address:
The <code>X</code>, <code>Y</code>, <code>Z</code> address register is concatenated
with the <code>RAMPX</code>, <code>RAMPY</code>, <code>RAMPZ</code> special function
register, respectively, to get a wide address. Similarly,
<code>RAMPD</code> is used together with direct addressing.
</p>
<ul>
<li> The startup code initializes the <code>RAMP</code> special function
registers with zero.

</li><li> If a <a href="Named-Address-Spaces.html#AVR-Named-Address-Spaces">named address space</a> other than
generic or <code>__flash</code> is used, then <code>RAMPZ</code> is set
as needed before the operation.

</li><li> If the device supports RAM larger than 64&nbsp;KiB and the compiler
needs to change <code>RAMPZ</code> to accomplish an operation, <code>RAMPZ</code>
is reset to zero after the operation.

</li><li> If the device comes with a specific <code>RAMP</code> register, the ISR
prologue/epilogue saves/restores that SFR and initializes it with
zero in case the ISR code might (implicitly) use it.

</li><li> RAM larger than 64&nbsp;KiB is not supported by GCC for AVR targets.
If you use inline assembler to read from locations outside the
16-bit address range and change one of the <code>RAMP</code> registers,
you must reset it to zero after the access.
