. -maccumulate-args
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 to be removed from the stack after such a function call.
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.
-mbranch-cost=
cost
-mcall-prologues
-mint8
int
to be 8-bit integer. This affects the sizes of all types: a char
is 1 byte, an int
is 1 byte, a long
is 2 bytes, and long long
is 4 bytes. Please note that this option does not conform to the C standards, but it results in smaller code size. -mn-flash=
num
-mno-interrupts
-mrelax
CALL
resp. JMP
instruction by the shorter RCALL
resp. RJMP
instruction if applicable. Setting -mrelax
just adds the --mlink-relax
option to the assembler's command line and the --relax
option to the linker's command line. 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.
Relaxing must be turned on if linker stubs are needed, see the section on EIND
and linker stubs below.
-mrmw
XCH
, LAC
, LAS
and LAT
. -msp8
This option is used internally by the compiler to select and build multilibs for architectures avr2
and avr25
. These architectures mix devices with and without SPH
. For any setting other than -mmcu=avr2
or -mmcu=avr25
the compiler driver adds or removes this option from the compiler proper's command line, because the compiler then knows if the device or architecture has an 8-bit stack pointer and thus no SPH
register or not.
-mstrict-X
X
in a way proposed by the hardware. This means that X
is only used in indirect, post-increment or pre-decrement addressing. Without this option, the X
register may be used in the same way as Y
or Z
which then is emulated by additional instructions. For example, loading a value with X+const
addressing with a small non-negative const < 64
to a register Rn is performed as
adiw r26, const ; X += const ld Rn, X ; Rn = *X sbiw r26, const ; X -= const

EIND
and Devices with More Than 128 Ki Bytes of FlashPointers in the implementation are 16 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 Ki words.
In order to facilitate indirect jump on devices with more than 128 Ki bytes of program memory space, there is a special function register called EIND
that serves as most significant part of the target address when EICALL
or EIJMP
instructions are used.
Indirect jumps and calls on these devices are handled as follows by the compiler and are subject to some limitations:
EIND
. EIND
implicitly in EICALL
/EIJMP
instructions or might read EIND
directly in order to emulate an indirect call/jump by means of a RET
instruction. EIND
never changes during the startup code or during the application. In particular, EIND
is not saved/restored in function or interrupt service routine prologue/epilogue. -mrelax
and the linker option --relax
. There are corner cases where the linker is supposed to generate stubs but aborts without relaxation and without a helpful error message. EIND = 0
. If code is supposed to work for a setup with EIND != 0
, a custom linker script has to be used in order to place the sections whose name start with .trampolines
into the segment where EIND
points to. EIND
. Notice that startup code is a blend of code from libgcc and AVR-LibC. For the impact of AVR-LibC on EIND
, see the AVR-LibC user manual. EIND
early, for example by means of initialization code located in section .init3
. 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 EIND
to the segment where the vector table is located. #include <avr/io.h> static void __attribute__((section(".init3"),naked,used,no_instrument_function)) init3_set_eind (void) { __asm volatile ("ldi r24,pm_hh8(__trampolines_start)\n\t" "out %i0,r24" :: "n" (&EIND) : "r24","memory"); }
The __trampolines_start
symbol is defined in the linker script.
gs
modifier (short for generate stubs) like so: LDI r24, lo8(gs(func)) LDI r25, hi8(gs(func))
gs
modifiers for code labels in the following situations: -mcall-prologues
command-line option. -fno-jump-tables
command-line option. gs()
modifier explained above. int main (void) { /* Call function at word address 0x2 */ return ((int(*)(void)) 0x2)(); }
Instead, a stub has to be set up, i.e. the function has to be called through a symbol (func_4
in the example):
int main (void) { extern int func_4 (void); /* Call function at byte address 0x4 */ return func_4(); }
and the application be linked with -Wl,--defsym,func_4=0x4
. Alternatively, func_4
can be defined in the linker script.
RAMPD
, RAMPX
, RAMPY
and RAMPZ
Special Function RegistersSome AVR devices support memories larger than the 64 KiB range that can be accessed with 16-bit pointers. To access memory locations outside this 64 KiB range, the contentent of a RAMP
register is used as high part of the address: The X
, Y
, Z
address register is concatenated with the RAMPX
, RAMPY
, RAMPZ
special function register, respectively, to get a wide address. Similarly, RAMPD
is used together with direct addressing.
RAMP
special function registers with zero. __flash
is used, then RAMPZ
is set as needed before the operation. RAMPZ
to accomplish an operation, RAMPZ
is reset to zero after the operation. RAMP
register, the ISR prologue/epilogue saves/restores that SFR and initializes it with zero in case the ISR code might (implicitly) use it. RAMP
registers, you must reset it to zero after the access. GCC defines several built-in macros so that the user code can test for the presence or absence of features. Almost any of the following built-in macros are deduced from device capabilities and thus triggered by the -mmcu=
command-line option.
For even more AVR-specific built-in macros see AVR Named Address Spaces and AVR Built-in Functions.

the macro is defined to 4

__AVR_

-mmcu=atmega8
defines the built-in macro __AVR_ATmega8__
, -mmcu=attiny261a

Device__
where Device is the device name as from the AVR user manual. The difference between Device in the built-in macro and device in -mmcu=device is that the latter is always lowercase.
If device is not a device but only a core architecture like ‘avr51
’, this macro is not defined.
__AVR_DEVICE_NAME__
-mmcu=atmega8
the macro is defined to atmega8
