</p>
<a name="index-MULTILIB_005fOPTIONS"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code></dt>
<dd><p>For some targets, invoking GCC in different ways produces objects
that cannot be linked together.  For example, for some targets GCC
produces both big and little endian code.  For these targets, you must
arrange for multiple versions of <samp>libgcc.a</samp> to be compiled, one for
each set of incompatible options.  When GCC invokes the linker, it
arranges to link in the right version of <samp>libgcc.a</samp>, based on
the command line options used.
</p>
<p>The <code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code> macro lists the set of options for which
special versions of <samp>libgcc.a</samp> must be built.  Write options that
are mutually incompatible side by side, separated by a slash.  Write
options that may be used together separated by a space.  The build
procedure will build all combinations of compatible options.
</p>
<p>For example, if you set <code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code> to &lsquo;<samp>m68000/m68020
msoft-float</samp>&rsquo;, <samp>Makefile</samp> will build special versions of
<samp>libgcc.a</samp> using the following sets of options:  <samp>-m68000</samp>,
<samp>-m68020</samp>, <samp>-msoft-float</samp>, &lsquo;<samp>-m68000 -msoft-float</samp>&rsquo;, and
&lsquo;<samp>-m68020 -msoft-float</samp>&rsquo;.
</p>
<a name="index-MULTILIB_005fDIRNAMES"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>MULTILIB_DIRNAMES</code></dt>
<dd><p>If <code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code> is used, this variable specifies the
directory names that should be used to hold the various libraries.
Write one element in <code>MULTILIB_DIRNAMES</code> for each element in
<code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code>.  If <code>MULTILIB_DIRNAMES</code> is not used, the
default value will be <code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code>, with all slashes treated
as spaces.
</p>
<p><code>MULTILIB_DIRNAMES</code> describes the multilib directories using GCC
conventions and is applied to directories that are part of the GCC
installation.  When multilib-enabled, the compiler will add a
subdirectory of the form <var>prefix</var>/<var>multilib</var> before each
directory in the search path for libraries and crt files.
</p>
<p>For example, if <code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code> is set to &lsquo;<samp>m68000/m68020
msoft-float</samp>&rsquo;, then the default value of <code>MULTILIB_DIRNAMES</code> is
&lsquo;<samp>m68000 m68020 msoft-float</samp>&rsquo;.  You may specify a different value if
you desire a different set of directory names.
</p>
<a name="index-MULTILIB_005fMATCHES"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>MULTILIB_MATCHES</code></dt>
<dd><p>Sometimes the same option may be written in two different ways.  If an
option is listed in <code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code>, GCC needs to know about
any synonyms.  In that case, set <code>MULTILIB_MATCHES</code> to a list of
items of the form &lsquo;<samp>option=option</samp>&rsquo; to describe all relevant
synonyms.  For example, &lsquo;<samp>m68000=mc68000 m68020=mc68020</samp>&rsquo;.
</p>
<a name="index-MULTILIB_005fEXCEPTIONS"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>MULTILIB_EXCEPTIONS</code></dt>
<dd><p>Sometimes when there are multiple sets of <code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code> being
specified, there are combinations that should not be built.  In that
case, set <code>MULTILIB_EXCEPTIONS</code> to be all of the switch exceptions
in shell case syntax that should not be built.
</p>
<p>For example the ARM processor cannot execute both hardware floating
point instructions and the reduced size THUMB instructions at the same
time, so there is no need to build libraries with both of these
options enabled.  Therefore <code>MULTILIB_EXCEPTIONS</code> is set to:
</p><div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">*mthumb/*mhard-float*
</pre></div>

<a name="index-MULTILIB_005fREQUIRED"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>MULTILIB_REQUIRED</code></dt>
<dd><p>Sometimes when there are only a few combinations are required, it would
be a big effort to come up with a <code>MULTILIB_EXCEPTIONS</code> list to
cover all undesired ones.  In such a case, just listing all the required
combinations in <code>MULTILIB_REQUIRED</code> would be more straightforward.
</p>
<p>The way to specify the entries in <code>MULTILIB_REQUIRED</code> is same with
the way used for <code>MULTILIB_EXCEPTIONS</code>, only this time what are
required will be specified.  Suppose there are multiple sets of
<code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code> and only two combinations are required, one
for ARMv7-M and one for ARMv7-R with hard floating-point ABI and FPU, the
<code>MULTILIB_REQUIRED</code> can be set to:
</p><div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample"><code>MULTILIB_REQUIRED</code> =  mthumb/march=armv7-m
<code>MULTILIB_REQUIRED</code> += march=armv7-r/mfloat-abi=hard/mfpu=vfpv3-d16
</pre></div>

<p>The <code>MULTILIB_REQUIRED</code> can be used together with
<code>MULTILIB_EXCEPTIONS</code>.  The option combinations generated from
<code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code> will be filtered by <code>MULTILIB_EXCEPTIONS</code>
and then by <code>MULTILIB_REQUIRED</code>.
</p>
<a name="index-MULTILIB_005fREUSE"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>MULTILIB_REUSE</code></dt>
<dd><p>Sometimes it is desirable to reuse one existing multilib for different
sets of options.  Such kind of reuse can minimize the number of multilib
variants.  And for some targets it is better to reuse an existing multilib
than to fall back to default multilib when there is no corresponding multilib.
This can be done by adding reuse rules to <code>MULTILIB_REUSE</code>.
</p>
<p>A reuse rule is comprised of two parts connected by equality sign.  The left
part is the option set used to build multilib and the right part is the option
set that will reuse this multilib.  Both parts should only use options
specified in <code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code> and the equality signs found in options
name should be replaced with periods.  An explicit period in the rule can be
escaped by preceding it with a backslash.  The order of options in the left
part matters and should be same with those specified in
<code>MULTILIB_REQUIRED</code> or aligned with the order in <code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code>.
There is no such limitation for options in the right part as we don&rsquo;t build
multilib from them.
</p>
<p><code>MULTILIB_REUSE</code> is different from <code>MULTILIB_MATCHES</code> in that it
sets up relations between two option sets rather than two options.  Here is an
example to demo how we reuse libraries built in Thumb mode for applications built
in ARM mode:
</p><div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample"><code>MULTILIB_REUSE</code> = mthumb/march.armv7-r=marm/march.armv7-r
</pre></div>

<p>Before the advent of <code>MULTILIB_REUSE</code>, GCC select multilib by comparing command
line options with options used to build multilib.  The <code>MULTILIB_REUSE</code> is
complementary to that way.  Only when the original comparison matches nothing it will
work to see if it is OK to reuse some existing multilib.
</p>
<a name="index-MULTILIB_005fEXTRA_005fOPTS"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>MULTILIB_EXTRA_OPTS</code></dt>
<dd><p>Sometimes it is desirable that when building multiple versions of
<samp>libgcc.a</samp> certain options should always be passed on to the
compiler.  In that case, set <code>MULTILIB_EXTRA_OPTS</code> to be the list
of options to be used for all builds.  If you set this, you should
probably set <code>CRTSTUFF_T_CFLAGS</code> to a dash followed by it.
</p>
<a name="index-MULTILIB_005fOSDIRNAMES"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>MULTILIB_OSDIRNAMES</code></dt>
<dd><p>If <code>MULTILIB_OPTIONS</code> is used, this variable specifies 
a list of subdirectory names, that are used to modify the search
path depending on the chosen multilib.  Unlike <code>MULTILIB_DIRNAMES</code>,
<code>MULTILIB_OSDIRNAMES</code> describes the multilib directories using
operating systems conventions, and is applied to the directories such as
<code>lib</code> or those in the <code>LIBRARY_PATH</code> environment variable.
The format is either the same as of
<code>MULTILIB_DIRNAMES</code>, or a set of mappings.  When it is the same
as <code>MULTILIB_DIRNAMES</code>, it describes the multilib directories
using operating system conventions, rather than GCC conventions.  When it is a set
of mappings of the form <var>gccdir</var>=<var>osdir</var>, the left side gives
the GCC convention and the right gives the equivalent OS defined
location.  If the <var>osdir</var> part begins with a &lsquo;<samp>!</samp>&rsquo;,
GCC will not search in the non-multilib directory and use
exclusively the multilib directory.  Otherwise, the compiler will
examine the search path for libraries and crt files twice; the first
time it will add <var>multilib</var> to each directory in the search path,
the second it will not.
</p>
<p>For configurations that support both multilib and multiarch,
<code>MULTILIB_OSDIRNAMES</code> also encodes the multiarch name, thus
subsuming <code>MULTIARCH_DIRNAME</code>.  The multiarch name is appended to
each directory name, separated by a colon (e.g.
&lsquo;<samp>../lib32:i386-linux-gnu</samp>&rsquo;).
</p>
<p>Each multiarch subdirectory will be searched before the corresponding OS
multilib directory, for example &lsquo;<samp>/lib/i386-linux-gnu</samp>&rsquo; before
&lsquo;<samp>/lib/../lib32</samp>&rsquo;.  The multiarch name will also be used to modify the
system header search path, as explained for <code>MULTIARCH_DIRNAME</code>.
</p>
<a name="index-MULTIARCH_005fDIRNAME"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>MULTIARCH_DIRNAME</code></dt>
<dd><p>This variable specifies the multiarch name for configurations that are
multiarch-enabled but not multilibbed configurations.
</p>
<p>The multiarch name is used to augment the search path for libraries, crt
files and system header files with additional locations.  The compiler
will add a multiarch subdirectory of the form
<var>prefix</var>/<var>multiarch</var> before each directory in the library and
crt search path.  It will also add two directories
<code>LOCAL_INCLUDE_DIR</code>/<var>multiarch</var> and
<code>NATIVE_SYSTEM_HEADER_DIR</code>/<var>multiarch</var>) to the system header
search path, respectively before <code>LOCAL_INCLUDE_DIR</code> and
<code>NATIVE_SYSTEM_HEADER_DIR</code>.
</p>
<p><code>MULTIARCH_DIRNAME</code> is not used for configurations that support
both multilib and multiarch.  In that case, multiarch names are encoded
in <code>MULTILIB_OSDIRNAMES</code> instead.
</p>
<p>More documentation about multiarch can be found at
<a href="https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch">https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch</a>.
</p>
<a name="index-SPECS"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>SPECS</code></dt>
<dd><p>Unfortunately, setting <code>MULTILIB_EXTRA_OPTS</code> is not enough, since
it does not affect the build of target libraries, at least not the
build of the default multilib.  One possible work-around is to use
<code>DRIVER_SELF_SPECS</code> to bring options from the <samp>specs</samp> file
as if they had been passed in the compiler driver command line.
However, you don&rsquo;t want to be adding these options after the toolchain
is installed, so you can instead tweak the <samp>specs</samp> file that will
be used during the toolchain build, while you still install the
original, built-in <samp>specs</samp>.  The trick is to set <code>SPECS</code> to
some other filename (say <samp>specs.install</samp>), that will then be
created out of the built-in specs, and introduce a <samp>Makefile</samp>
rule to generate the <samp>specs</samp> file that&rsquo;s going to be used at
build time out of your <samp>specs.install</samp>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>T_CFLAGS</code></dt>
<dd><p>These are extra flags to pass to the C compiler.  They are used both
when building GCC, and when compiling things with the just-built GCC.
This variable is deprecated and should not be used.
