The default search path includes ! 234: @code{GPLUSPLUS_INCLUDE_DIR}, @code{GCC_INCLUDE_DIR}, ! 235: @code{LOCAL_INCLUDE_DIR}, @code{SYSTEM_INCLUDE_DIR}, and ! 236: @code{STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIR}. In addition, the macros ! 237: @code{GPLUSPLUS_INCLUDE_DIR} and @code{GCC_INCLUDE_DIR} are defined ! 238: automatically by @file{Makefile}, and specify private search areas for ! 239: GCC. The directory @code{GPLUSPLUS_INCLUDE_DIR} is used only for C++ ! 240: programs. ! 241: ! 242: The definition should be an initializer for an array of structures. ! 243: Each array element should have two elements: the directory name (a ! 244: string constant) and a flag for C++-only directories.

These ! 332: @samp{__} macros are permitted by the ANSI standard, so they are ! 333: predefined regardless of whether @samp{-ansi} is specified. ! 334: ! 335: For example, on the Sun, one can use the following value: ! 336: ! 337: @example ! 338: "-Dmc68000 -Dsun -Dunix" ! 339: @end example ! 340: ! 341: The result is to define the macros @code{__mc68000__}, @code{__sun__} ! 342: and @code{__unix__} unconditionally, and the macros @code{mc68000}, ! 343: @code{sun} and @code{unix} provided @samp{-ansi} is not specified. ! 344: ! 345: @findex STDC_VALUE ! 346: @item STDC_VALUE ! 347: Define the value to be assigned to the built-in macro @code{__STDC__}. ! 348: The default is the value @samp{1}. ! 349: ! 350: @findex extern int target_flags ! 351: @item extern int target_flags; ! 352: This declaration should be present. ! 353: ! 354: @cindex optional hardware or system features ! 355: @cindex features, optional, in system conventions ! 356: @item TARGET_@dots{} ! 357: This series of macros is to allow compiler command arguments to ! 358: enable or disable the use of optional features of the target machine. ! 359: For example, one machine description serves both the 68000 and ! 360: the 68020; a command argument tells the compiler whether it should ! 361: use 68020-only instructions or not. This command argument works ! 362: by means of a macro @code{TARGET_68020} that tests a bit in ! 363: @code{target_flags}. ! 364: ! 365: Define a macro @code{TARGET_@var{featurename}} for each such option. ! 366: Its definition should test a bit in @code{target_flags}; for example: ! 367: ! 368: @example ! 369: #define TARGET_68020 (target_flags & 1) ! 370: @end example ! 371: ! 372: One place where these macros are used is in the condition-expressions ! 373: of instruction patterns. Note how @code{TARGET_68020} appears ! 374: frequently in the 68000 machine description file, @file{m68k.md}. ! 375: Another place they are used is in the definitions of the other ! 376: macros in the @file{@var{machine}.h} file. ! 377: ! 378: @findex TARGET_SWITCHES ! 379: @item TARGET_SWITCHES ! 380: This macro defines names of command options to set and clear ! 381: bits in @code{target_flags}. Its definition is an initializer ! 382: with a subgrouping for each command option. ! 383: ! 384: Each subgrouping contains a string constant, that defines the option ! 385: name, and a number, which contains the bits to set in ! 386: @code{target_flags}. A negative number says to clear bits instead; ! 387: the negative of the number is which bits to clear. The actual option ! 388: name is made by appending @samp{-m} to the specified name. ! 389: ! 390: One of the subgroupings should have a null string. The number in ! 391: this grouping is the default value for @code{target_flags}. Any ! 392: target options act starting with that value. ! 393: ! 394: Here is an example which defines @samp{-m68000} and @samp{-m68020} ! 395: with opposite meanings, and picks the latter as the default: ! 396: ! 397: @example ! 398: #define TARGET_SWITCHES \ ! 399: @{ @{ "68020", 1@}, \ ! 400: @{ "68000", -1@}, \ ! 401: @{ "", 1@}@} ! 402: @end example ! 403: ! 404: @findex TARGET_OPTIONS ! 405: @item TARGET_OPTIONS ! 406: This macro is similar to @code{TARGET_SWITCHES} but defines names of command ! 407: options that have values. Its definition is an initializer with a ! 408: subgrouping for each command option. ! 409: ! 410: Each subgrouping contains a string constant, that defines the fixed part ! 411: of the option name, and the address of a variable. The variable, type ! 412: @code{char *}, is set to the variable part of the given option if the fixed ! 413: part matches. The actual option name is made by appending @samp{-m} to the ! 414: specified name. ! 415: ! 416: Here is an example which defines @samp{-mshort-data-@var{number}}. If the ! 417: given option is @samp{-mshort-data-512}, the variable @code{m88k_short_data} ! 418: will be set to the string @code{"512"}. ! 419: ! 420: @example ! 421: extern char *m88k_short_data; ! 422: #define TARGET_OPTIONS @{ @{ "short-data-", &m88k_short_data @} @} ! 423: @end example ! 424: ! 425: @findex TARGET_VERSION ! 426: @item TARGET_VERSION ! 427: This macro is a C statement to print on @code{stderr} a string ! 428: describing the particular machine description choice. Every machine ! 429: description should define @code{TARGET_VERSION}. For example: ! 430: ! 431: @example ! 432: #ifdef MOTOROLA ! 433: #define TARGET_VERSION fprintf (stderr, " (68k, Motorola syntax)"); ! 434: #else ! 435: #define TARGET_VERSION fprintf (stderr, " (68k, MIT syntax)"); ! 436: #endif ! 437: @end example ! 438: ! 439: @findex OVERRIDE_OPTIONS ! 440: @item OVERRIDE_OPTIONS ! 441: Sometimes certain combinations of command options do not make sense on ! 442: a particular target machine. You can define a macro ! 443: @code{OVERRIDE_OPTIONS} to take account of this. This macro, if ! 444: defined, is executed once just after all the command options have been ! 445: parsed. ! 446: ! 447: Don't use this macro to turn on various extra optimizations for ! 448: @samp{-O}. That is what @code{OPTIMIZATION_OPTIONS} is for. ! 449: ! 450: @findex OPTIMIZATION_OPTIONS ! 451: @item OPTIMIZATION_OPTIONS (@var{level}) ! 452: Some machines may desire to change what optimizations are performed for ! 453: various optimization levels. This macro, if defined, is executed once ! 454: just after the optimization level is determined and before the remainder ! 455: of the command options have been parsed. Values set in this macro are ! 456: used as the default values for the other command line options. ! 457: ! 458: @var{level} is the optimization level specified; 2 if -O2 is specified, ! 459: 1 if -O is specified, and 0 if neither is specified. ! 460: ! 461: @strong{Do not examine @code{write_symbols} in this macro!} ! 462: The debugging options are not supposed to alter the generated code. ! 463: @end table ! 464: ! 465: @node Storage Layout, Type Layout, Run-time Target, Machine Macros ! 466: @section Storage Layout ! 467: @cindex storage layout ! 468: ! 469: Note that the definitions of the macros in this table which are sizes or ! 470: alignments measured in bits do not need to be constant.

If it is impossible to move a ! 1066: value of a certain mode between memory and certain registers, then ! 1067: @code{HARD_REGNO_MODE_OK} must not allow this mode in those registers. ! 1068: @end ignore ! 1069: ! 1070: The minimum requirement for a mode to be OK in a register is that the ! 1071: @samp{mov@var{mode}} instruction pattern support moves between the ! 1072: register and any other hard register for which the mode is OK; and that ! 1073: moving a value into the register and back out not alter it. ! 1074: ! 1075: Since the same instruction used to move @code{SImode} will work for all ! 1076: narrower integer modes, it is not necessary on any machine for ! 1077: @code{HARD_REGNO_MODE_OK} to distinguish between these modes, provided ! 1078: you define patterns @samp{movhi}, etc., to take advantage of this. This ! 1079: is useful because of the interaction between @code{HARD_REGNO_MODE_OK} ! 1080: and @code{MODES_TIEABLE_P}; it is very desirable for all integer modes ! 1081: to be tieable. ! 1082: ! 1083: Many machines have special registers for floating point arithmetic. ! 1084: Often people assume that floating point machine modes are allowed only ! 1085: in floating point registers. This is not true. Any registers that ! 1086: can hold integers can safely @emph{hold} a floating point machine ! 1087: mode, whether or not floating arithmetic can be done on it in those ! 1088: registers. Integer move instructions can be used to move the values. ! 1089: ! 1090: On some machines, though, the converse is true: fixed-point machine ! 1091: modes may not go in floating registers. This is true if the floating ! 1092: registers normalize any value stored in them, because storing a ! 1093: non-floating value there would garble it. In this case, ! 1094: @code{HARD_REGNO_MODE_OK} should reject fixed-point machine modes in ! 1095: floating registers. But if the floating registers do not automatically ! 1096: normalize, if you can store any bit pattern in one and retrieve it ! 1097: unchanged without a trap, then any machine mode may go in a floating ! 1098: register and this macro should say so. ! 1099: ! 1100: The primary significance of special floating registers is rather that ! 1101: they are the registers acceptable in floating point arithmetic ! 1102: instructions.

Some machines allow copying all ! 1469: registers to and from memory, but require a scratch register for stores ! 1470: to some memory locations (e.g., those with symbolic address on the RT, ! 1471: and those with certain symbolic address on the Sparc when compiling ! 1472: PIC). In some cases, both an intermediate and a scratch register are ! 1473: required. ! 1474: ! 1475: You should define these macros to indicate to the reload phase that it may ! 1476: need to allocate at least one register for a reload in addition to the ! 1477: register to contain the data. Specifically, if copying @var{x} to a ! 1478: register @var{class} in @var{mode} requires an intermediate register, ! 1479: you should define @code{SECONDARY_INPUT_RELOAD_CLASS} to return the ! 1480: largest register class all of whose registers can be used as ! 1481: intermediate registers or scratch registers. ! 1482: ! 1483: If copying a register @var{class} in @var{mode} to @var{x} requires an ! 1484: intermediate or scratch register, you should define ! 1485: @code{SECONDARY_OUTPUT_RELOAD_CLASS} to return the largest register ! 1486: class required. If the requirements for input and output reloads are ! 1487: the same, the macro @code{SECONDARY_RELOAD_CLASS} should be used instead ! 1488: of defining both macros identically. ! 1489: ! 1490: The values returned by these macros are often @code{GENERAL_REGS}. ! 1491: Return @code{NO_REGS} if no spare register is needed; i.e., if @var{x} ! 1492: can be directly copied to or from a register of @var{class} in ! 1493: @var{mode} without requiring a scratch register.

These patterns, which will normally be ! 1500: implemented with a @code{define_expand}, should be similar to the ! 1501: @samp{mov@var{m}} patterns, except that operand 2 is the scratch ! 1502: register. ! 1503: ! 1504: Define constraints for the reload register and scratch register that ! 1505: contain a single register class. If the original reload register (whose ! 1506: class is @var{class}) can meet the constraint given in the pattern, the ! 1507: value returned by these macros is used for the class of the scratch ! 1508: register. Otherwise, two additional reload registers are required. ! 1509: Their classes are obtained from the constraints in the insn pattern. ! 1510: ! 1511: @var{x} might be a pseudo-register or a @code{subreg} of a ! 1512: pseudo-register, which could either be in a hard register or in memory. ! 1513: Use @code{true_regnum} to find out; it will return -1 if the pseudo is ! 1514: in memory and the hard register number if it is in a register. ! 1515: ! 1516: These macros should not be used in the case where a particular class of ! 1517: registers can only be copied to memory and not to another class of ! 1518: registers. In that case, secondary reload registers are not needed and ! 1519: would not be helpful. Instead, a stack location must be used to perform ! 1520: the copy and the @code{mov@var{m}} pattern should use memory as a ! 1521: intermediate storage.

In writing this macro, you can use the construct ! 3373: @code{COSTS_N_INSNS (@var{n})} to specify a cost equal to @var{n} fast ! 3374: instructions. ! 3375: ! 3376: This macro is optional; do not define it if the default cost assumptions ! 3377: are adequate for the target machine. ! 3378: ! 3379: @findex ADDRESS_COST ! 3380: @item ADDRESS_COST (@var{address}) ! 3381: An expression giving the cost of an addressing mode that contains ! 3382: @var{address}.

However, on RISC machines, all ! 3387: instructions normally have the same length and execution time. Hence ! 3388: all addresses will have equal costs. ! 3389: ! 3390: In cases where more than one form of an address is known, the form with ! 3391: the lowest cost will be used. If multiple forms have the same, lowest, ! 3392: cost, the one that is the most complex will be used. ! 3393: ! 3394: For example, suppose an address that is equal to the sum of a register ! 3395: and a constant is used twice in the same basic block. When this macro ! 3396: is not defined, the address will be computed in a register and memory ! 3397: references will be indirect through that register. On machines where ! 3398: the cost of the addressing mode containing the sum is no higher than ! 3399: that of a simple indirect reference, this will produce an additional ! 3400: instruction and possibly require an additional register. Proper ! 3401: specification of this macro eliminates this overhead for such machines. ! 3402: ! 3403: Similar use of this macro is made in strength reduction of loops. ! 3404: ! 3405: @var{address} need not be valid as an address. In such a case, the cost ! 3406: is not relevant and can be any value; invalid addresses need not be ! 3407: assigned a different cost. ! 3408: ! 3409: On machines where an address involving more than one register is as ! 3410: cheap as an address computation involving only one register, defining ! 3411: @code{ADDRESS_COST} to reflect this can cause two registers to be live ! 3412: over a region of code where only one would have been if ! 3413: @code{ADDRESS_COST} were not defined in that manner. This effect should ! 3414: be considered in the definition of this macro.

To do this, define @code{DBX_OUTPUT_STANDARD_TYPES} to output ! 4644: those symbols in the necessary order. Any predefined types that you ! 4645: don't explicitly output will be output afterward in no particular order. ! 4646: ! 4647: Be careful not to define this macro so that it works only for C.

It can also ! 5007: replace comparison operators with equivalent operations if they cause ! 5008: the required bits to be set, even if the remaining bits are undefined. ! 5009: For example, on a machine whose comparison operators return an ! 5010: @code{SImode} value and where @code{STORE_FLAG_VALUE} is defined as ! 5011: @samp{0x80000000}, saying that just the sign bit is relevant, the ! 5012: expression ! 5013: ! 5014: @example ! 5015: (ne:SI (and:SI @var{x} (const_int @var{power-of-2})) (const_int 0)) ! 5016: @end example ! 5017: ! 5018: @noindent ! 5019: can be converted to ! 5020: ! 5021: @example ! 5022: (ashift:SI @var{x} (const_int @var{n})) ! 5023: @end example ! 5024: ! 5025: @noindent ! 5026: where @var{n} is the appropriate shift count to move the bit being ! 5027: tested into the sign bit. ! 5028: ! 5029: There is no way to describe a machine that always sets the low-order bit ! 5030: for a true value, but does not guarantee the value of any other bits, ! 5031: but we do not know of any machine that has such an instruction. If you ! 5032: are trying to port GNU CC to such a machine, include an instruction to ! 5033: perform a logical-and of the result with 1 in the pattern for the ! 5034: comparison operators and let us know (@pxref{Bug Reporting}). ! 5035: ! 5036: Often, a machine will have multiple instructions that obtain a value ! 5037: from a comparison (or the condition codes). Here are rules to guide the ! 5038: choice of value for @code{STORE_FLAG_VALUE}, and hence the instructions ! 5039: to be used: ! 5040: ! 5041: @itemize @bullet ! 5042: @item ! 5043: Use the shortest sequence that yields a valid definition for ! 5044: @code{STORE_FLAG_VALUE}. It is more efficent for the compiler to ! 5045: ``normalize'' the value (convert it to, e.g., 1 or 0) than for the ! 5046: comparison operators to do so because there may be opportunities to ! 5047: combine the normalization with other operations. ! 5048: ! 5049: @item ! 5050: For equal-length sequences, use a value of 1 or -1, with -1 being ! 5051: slightly preferred on machines with expensive jumps and 1 preferred on ! 5052: other machines. ! 5053: ! 5054: @item ! 5055: As a second choice, choose a value of @samp{0x80000001} if instructions ! 5056: exist that set both the sign and low-order bits but do not define the ! 5057: others. ! 5058: ! 5059: @item ! 5060: Otherwise, use a value of @samp{0x80000000}. ! 5061: @end itemize ! 5062: ! 5063: You need not define @code{STORE_FLAG_VALUE} if the machine has no store-flag ! 5064: instructions. ! 5065: ! 5066: @findex Pmode ! 5067: @item Pmode ! 5068: An alias for the machine mode for pointers. Normally the definition ! 5069: can be ! 5070: ! 5071: @example ! 5072: #define Pmode SImode ! 5073: @end example ! 5074: ! 5075: @findex FUNCTION_MODE ! 5076: @item FUNCTION_MODE ! 5077: An alias for the machine mode used for memory references to functions ! 5078: being called, in @code{call} RTL expressions. On most machines this ! 5079: should be @code{QImode}. ! 5080: ! 5081: @findex INTEGRATE_THRESHOLD ! 5082: @item INTEGRATE_THRESHOLD (@var{decl}) ! 5083: A C expression for the maximum number of instructions above which the ! 5084: function @var{decl} should not be inlined. @var{decl} is a ! 5085: @code{FUNCTION_DECL} node. ! 5086: ! 5087: The default definition of this macro is 64 plus 8 times the number of ! 5088: arguments that the function accepts. Some people think a larger ! 5089: threshold should be used on RISC machines. ! 5090: ! 5091: @findex SCCS_DIRECTIVE ! 5092: @item SCCS_DIRECTIVE ! 5093: Define this if the preprocessor should ignore @code{#sccs} directives ! 5094: and print no error message. ! 5095: ! 5096: @findex HANDLE_PRAGMA ! 5097: @findex #pragma ! 5098: @findex pragma ! 5099: @item HANDLE_PRAGMA (@var{stream}) ! 5100: Define this macro if you want to implement any pragmas. If defined, it ! 5101: should be a C statement to be executed when @code{#pragma} is seen. The ! 5102: argument @var{stream} is the stdio input stream from which the source ! 5103: text can be read. ! 5104: ! 5105: It is generally a bad idea to implement new uses of @code{#pragma}. The ! 5106: only reason to define this macro is for compatibility with other ! 5107: compilers that do support @code{#pragma} for the sake of any user ! 5108: programs which already use it. ! 5109: ! 5110: @findex HAVE_VPRINTF ! 5111: @findex vprintf ! 5112: @item HAVE_VPRINTF ! 5113: Define this if the library function @code{vprintf} is available on your ! 5114: system. ! 5115: ! 5116: @findex DOLLARS_IN_IDENTIFIERS ! 5117: @item DOLLARS_IN_IDENTIFIERS ! 5118: Define this macro to control use of the character @samp{$} in identifier ! 5119: names. The value should be 0, 1, or 2. 0 means @samp{$} is not allowed ! 5120: by default; 1 means it is allowed by default if @samp{-traditional} is ! 5121: used; 2 means it is allowed by default provided @samp{-ansi} is not used. ! 5122: 1 is the default; there is no need to define this macro in that case. ! 5123: ! 5124: @findex DEFAULT_MAIN_RETURN ! 5125: @item DEFAULT_MAIN_RETURN ! 5126: Define this macro if the target system expects every program's @code{main} ! 5127: function to return a standard ``success'' value by default (if no other ! 5128: value is explicitly returned). ! 5129: ! 5130: The definition should be a C statement (sans semicolon) to generate the ! 5131: appropriate rtl instructions. It is used only when compiling the end of ! 5132: @code{main}. ! 5133: ! 5134: @item HAVE_ATEXIT ! 5135: @findex HAVE_ATEXIT ! 5136: Define this if the target system supports the function ! 5137: @code{atexit} from the ANSI C standard. If this is not defined, ! 5138: and @code{INIT_SECTION_ASM_OP} is not defined, a default ! 5139: @code{exit} function will be provided to support C++. ! 5140: ! 5141: @item EXIT_BODY ! 5142: @findex EXIT_BODY ! 5143: Define this if your @code{exit} function needs to do something ! 5144: besides calling an external function @code{_cleanup} before ! 5145: terminating with @code{_exit}. The @code{EXIT_BODY} macro is ! 5146: only needed if netiher @code{HAVE_ATEXIT} nor ! 5147: @code{INIT_SECTION_ASM_OP} are defined. ! 5148: @end table ! 5149: @end ifset
