+@node RX Options
+@subsection RX Options
+@cindex RX Options
+
+These command line options are defined for RX targets:
+
+@table @gcctabopt
+@item -m64bit-doubles
+@itemx -m32bit-doubles
+@opindex m64bit-doubles
+@opindex m32bit-doubles
+Make the @code{double} data type be 64-bits (@option{-m64bit-doubles})
+or 32-bits (@option{-m32bit-doubles}) in size. The default is
+@option{-m32bit-doubles}. @emph{Note} RX floating point hardware only
+works on 32-bit values, which is why the default is
+@option{-m32bit-doubles}.
+
+@item -fpu
+@itemx -nofpu
+@opindex fpu
+@opindex nofpu
+Enables (@option{-fpu}) or disables (@option{-nofpu}) the use of RX
+floating point hardware. The default is enabled for the @var{RX600}
+series and disabled for the @var{RX200} series.
+
+Floating point instructions will only be generated for 32-bit floating
+point values however, so if the @option{-m64bit-doubles} option is in
+use then the FPU hardware will not be used for doubles.
+
+@emph{Note} If the @option{-fpu} option is enabled then
+@option{-funsafe-math-optimizations} is also enabled automatically.
+This is because the RX FPU instructions are themselves unsafe.
+
+@item -mcpu=@var{name}
+@itemx -patch=@var{name}
+@opindex -mcpu
+@opindex -patch
+Selects the type of RX CPU to be targeted. Currently three types are
+supported, the generic @var{RX600} and @var{RX200} series hardware and
+the specific @var{RX610} cpu. The default is @var{RX600}.
+
+The only difference between @var{RX600} and @var{RX610} is that the
+@var{RX610} does not support the @code{MVTIPL} instruction.
+
+The @var{RX200} series does not have a hardware floating point unit
+and so @option{-nofpu} is enabled by default when this type is
+selected.
+
+@item -mbig-endian-data
+@itemx -mlittle-endian-data
+@opindex mbig-endian-data
+@opindex mlittle-endian-data
+Store data (but not code) in the big-endian format. The default is
+@option{-mlittle-endian-data}, ie to store data in the little endian
+format.
+
+@item -msmall-data-limit=@var{N}
+@opindex msmall-data-limit
+Specifies the maximum size in bytes of global and static variables
+which can be placed into the small data area. Using the small data
+area can lead to smaller and faster code, but the size of area is
+limited and it is up to the programmer to ensure that the area does
+not overflow. Also when the small data area is used one of the RX's
+registers (@code{r13}) is reserved for use pointing to this area, so
+it is no longer available for use by the compiler. This could result
+in slower and/or larger code if variables which once could have been
+held in @code{r13} are now pushed onto the stack.
+
+Note, common variables (variables which have not been initialised) and
+constants are not placed into the small data area as they are assigned
+to other sections in the output executable.
+
+The default value is zero, which disables this feature. Note, this
+feature is not enabled by default with higher optimization levels
+(@option{-O2} etc) because of the potentially detrimental effects of
+reserving register @code{r13}. It is up to the programmer to
+experiment and discover whether this feature is of benefit to their
+program.
+
+@item -msim
+@itemx -mno-sim
+@opindex msim
+@opindex mno-sim
+Use the simulator runtime. The default is to use the libgloss board
+specific runtime.
+
+@item -mas100-syntax
+@itemx -mno-as100-syntax
+@opindex mas100-syntax
+@opindex mno-as100-syntax
+When generating assembler output use a syntax that is compatible with
+Renesas's AS100 assembler. This syntax can also be handled by the GAS
+assembler but it has some restrictions so generating it is not the
+default option.
+
+@item -mmax-constant-size=@var{N}
+@opindex mmax-constant-size
+Specifies the maximum size, in bytes, of a constant that can be used as
+an operand in a RX instruction. Although the RX instruction set does
+allow constants of up to 4 bytes in length to be used in instructions,
+a longer value equates to a longer instruction. Thus in some
+circumstances it can be beneficial to restrict the size of constants
+that are used in instructions. Constants that are too big are instead
+placed into a constant pool and referenced via register indirection.
+
+The value @var{N} can be between 0 and 4. A value of 0 (the default)
+or 4 means that constants of any size are allowed.
+
+@item -mrelax
+@opindex mrelax
+Enable linker relaxation. Linker relaxation is a process whereby the
+linker will attempt to reduce the size of a program by finding shorter
+versions of various instructions. Disabled by default.
+
+@item -mint-register=@var{N}
+@opindex mint-register
+Specify the number of registers to reserve for fast interrupt handler
+functions. The value @var{N} can be between 0 and 4. A value of 1
+means that register @code{r13} will be reserved for the exclusive use
+of fast interrupt handlers. A value of 2 reserves @code{r13} and
+@code{r12}. A value of 3 reserves @code{r13}, @code{r12} and
+@code{r11}, and a value of 4 reserves @code{r13} through @code{r10}.
+A value of 0, the default, does not reserve any registers.
+
+@item -msave-acc-in-interrupts
+@opindex msave-acc-in-interrupts
+Specifies that interrupt handler functions should preserve the
+accumulator register. This is only necessary if normal code might use
+the accumulator register, for example because it performs 64-bit
+multiplications. The default is to ignore the accumulator as this
+makes the interrupt handlers faster.
+
+@end table
+
+@emph{Note:} The generic GCC command line @option{-ffixed-@var{reg}}
+has special significance to the RX port when used with the
+@code{interrupt} function attribute. This attribute indicates a
+function intended to process fast interrupts. GCC will will ensure
+that it only uses the registers @code{r10}, @code{r11}, @code{r12}
+and/or @code{r13} and only provided that the normal use of the
+corresponding registers have been restricted via the
+@option{-ffixed-@var{reg}} or @option{-mint-register} command line
+options.
