Stack checking option for ARM

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello.

In the documentation, the command line optionoverview
(http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.1.2/gcc/Option-Summary.html#Option-Summ
ary) shows a command line option for ARM: -mapcs-stack-check.

However, in the detailed documentation for the ARM options
(http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.1.2/gcc/ARM-Options.html#ARM-Options),
I cannot find a description for this option.

Does this option actually exist, and how does it work? I found an old post
to the bugs mailing list where a Richard Earnshaw stated that the option was
recognised by gcc, but does not work. It was suggested that the option be
removed from the documentation until it was implemented. I have compiled my
code with it enabled using gcc 4.2.1, and it adds a few bytes to the size of
my binary.

Thanks,

Bruce Sutherland
