9.2.1 Options

-marc[5|6|7|8] This option selects the core processor variant. Using -marc is the same as -marc6, which is also the default.

arc5 Base instruction set.

arc6 Jump-and-link (jl) instruction. No requirement of an instruction between setting flags and conditional jump. For example:

                 mov.f r0,r1
                 beq   foo

arc7 Break (brk) and sleep (sleep) instructions.

arc8 Software interrupt (swi) instruction.

Note: the .option directive can to be used to select a core variant from within assembly code.

-EB This option specifies that the output generated by the assembler should be marked as being encoded for a big-endian processor.

-EL This option specifies that the output generated by the assembler should be marked as being encoded for a little-endian processor - this is the default.
