<a name="index-parameters_002c-miscellaneous"></a>
<p>Here are several miscellaneous parameters.
</p>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-HAS_005fLONG_005fCOND_005fBRANCH"></a>Macro: <strong>HAS_LONG_COND_BRANCH</strong></dt>
<dd><p>Define this boolean macro to indicate whether or not your architecture
has conditional branches that can span all of memory. It is used in
conjunction with an optimization that partitions hot and cold basic
blocks into separate sections of the executable. If this macro is
set to false, gcc will convert any conditional branches that attempt
to cross between sections into unconditional branches or indirect jumps.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-HAS_005fLONG_005fUNCOND_005fBRANCH"></a>Macro: <strong>HAS_LONG_UNCOND_BRANCH</strong></dt>
<dd><p>Define this boolean macro to indicate whether or not your architecture
has unconditional branches that can span all of memory. It is used in
conjunction with an optimization that partitions hot and cold basic
blocks into separate sections of the executable. If this macro is
set to false, gcc will convert any unconditional branches that attempt
to cross between sections into indirect jumps.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-CASE_005fVECTOR_005fMODE"></a>Macro: <strong>CASE_VECTOR_MODE</strong></dt>
<dd><p>An alias for a machine mode name. This is the machine mode that
elements of a jump-table should have.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-CASE_005fVECTOR_005fSHORTEN_005fMODE"></a>Macro: <strong>CASE_VECTOR_SHORTEN_MODE</strong> <em>(<var>min_offset</var>, <var>max_offset</var>, <var>body</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>Optional: return the preferred mode for an <code>addr_diff_vec</code>
when the minimum and maximum offset are known. If you define this,
it enables extra code in branch shortening to deal with <code>addr_diff_vec</code>.
To make this work, you also have to define <code>INSN_ALIGN</code> and
make the alignment for <code>addr_diff_vec</code> explicit.
The <var>body</var> argument is provided so that the offset_unsigned and scale
flags can be updated.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-CASE_005fVECTOR_005fPC_005fRELATIVE"></a>Macro: <strong>CASE_VECTOR_PC_RELATIVE</strong></dt>
<dd><p>Define this macro to be a C expression to indicate when jump-tables
should contain relative addresses. You need not define this macro if
jump-tables never contain relative addresses, or jump-tables should
contain relative addresses only when <samp>-fPIC</samp> or <samp>-fPIC</samp>
is in effect.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fCASE_005fVALUES_005fTHRESHOLD"></a>Target Hook: <em>unsigned int</em> <strong>TARGET_CASE_VALUES_THRESHOLD</strong> <em>(void)</em></dt>
<dd><p>This function return the smallest number of different values for which it
is best to use a jump-table instead of a tree of conditional branches.
The default is four for machines with a <code>casesi</code> instruction and
five otherwise. This is best for most machines.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-WORD_005fREGISTER_005fOPERATIONS"></a>Macro: <strong>WORD_REGISTER_OPERATIONS</strong></dt>
<dd><p>Define this macro if operations between registers with integral mode
smaller than a word are always performed on the entire register.
Most RISC machines have this property and most CISC machines do not.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-LOAD_005fEXTEND_005fOP"></a>Macro: <strong>LOAD_EXTEND_OP</strong> <em>(<var>mem_mode</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>Define this macro to be a C expression indicating when insns that read
memory in <var>mem_mode</var>, an integral mode narrower than a word, set the
bits outside of <var>mem_mode</var> to be either the sign-extension or the
zero-extension of the data read. Return <code>SIGN_EXTEND</code> for values
of <var>mem_mode</var> for which the
insn sign-extends, <code>ZERO_EXTEND</code> for which it zero-extends, and
<code>UNKNOWN</code> for other modes.
</p>
<p>This macro is not called with <var>mem_mode</var> non-integral or with a width
greater than or equal to <code>BITS_PER_WORD</code>, so you may return any
value in this case. Do not define this macro if it would always return
<code>UNKNOWN</code>. On machines where this macro is defined, you will normally
define it as the constant <code>SIGN_EXTEND</code> or <code>ZERO_EXTEND</code>.
</p>
<p>You may return a non-<code>UNKNOWN</code> value even if for some hard registers
the sign extension is not performed, if for the <code>REGNO_REG_CLASS</code>
of these hard registers <code>CANNOT_CHANGE_MODE_CLASS</code> returns nonzero
when the <var>from</var> mode is <var>mem_mode</var> and the <var>to</var> mode is any
integral mode larger than this but not larger than <code>word_mode</code>.
</p>
<p>You must return <code>UNKNOWN</code> if for some hard registers that allow this
mode, <code>CANNOT_CHANGE_MODE_CLASS</code> says that they cannot change to
<code>word_mode</code>, but that they can change to another integral mode that
is larger then <var>mem_mode</var> but still smaller than <code>word_mode</code>.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-SHORT_005fIMMEDIATES_005fSIGN_005fEXTEND"></a>Macro: <strong>SHORT_IMMEDIATES_SIGN_EXTEND</strong></dt>
<dd><p>Define this macro if loading short immediate values into registers sign
extends.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fMIN_005fDIVISIONS_005fFOR_005fRECIP_005fMUL"></a>Target Hook: <em>unsigned int</em> <strong>TARGET_MIN_DIVISIONS_FOR_RECIP_MUL</strong> <em>(enum machine_mode <var>mode</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>When <samp>-ffast-math</samp> is in effect, GCC tries to optimize
divisions by the same divisor, by turning them into multiplications by
the reciprocal. This target hook specifies the minimum number of divisions
that should be there for GCC to perform the optimization for a variable
of mode <var>mode</var>. The default implementation returns 3 if the machine
has an instruction for the division, and 2 if it does not.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-MOVE_005fMAX"></a>Macro: <strong>MOVE_MAX</strong></dt>
<dd><p>The maximum number of bytes that a single instruction can move quickly
between memory and registers or between two memory locations.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-MAX_005fMOVE_005fMAX"></a>Macro: <strong>MAX_MOVE_MAX</strong></dt>
<dd><p>The maximum number of bytes that a single instruction can move quickly
between memory and registers or between two memory locations. If this
is undefined, the default is <code>MOVE_MAX</code>. Otherwise, it is the
constant value that is the largest value that <code>MOVE_MAX</code> can have
at run-time.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-SHIFT_005fCOUNT_005fTRUNCATED"></a>Macro: <strong>SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED</strong></dt>
<dd><p>A C expression that is nonzero if on this machine the number of bits
actually used for the count of a shift operation is equal to the number
of bits needed to represent the size of the object being shifted. When
this macro is nonzero, the compiler will assume that it is safe to omit
a sign-extend, zero-extend, and certain bitwise &lsquo;and&rsquo; instructions that
truncates the count of a shift operation. On machines that have
instructions that act on bit-fields at variable positions, which may
include &lsquo;bit test&rsquo; instructions, a nonzero <code>SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED</code>
also enables deletion of truncations of the values that serve as
arguments to bit-field instructions.
</p>
<p>If both types of instructions truncate the count (for shifts) and
position (for bit-field operations), or if no variable-position bit-field
instructions exist, you should define this macro.
</p>
<p>However, on some machines, such as the 80386 and the 680x0, truncation
only applies to shift operations and not the (real or pretended)
bit-field operations. Define <code>SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED</code> to be zero on
such machines. Instead, add patterns to the <samp>md</samp> file that include
the implied truncation of the shift instructions.
</p>
<p>You need not define this macro if it would always have the value of zero.
</p></dd></dl>
<a name="TARGET_005fSHIFT_005fTRUNCATION_005fMASK"></a><dl>
<dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fSHIFT_005fTRUNCATION_005fMASK"></a>Target Hook: <em>unsigned HOST_WIDE_INT</em> <strong>TARGET_SHIFT_TRUNCATION_MASK</strong> <em>(enum machine_mode <var>mode</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>This function describes how the standard shift patterns for <var>mode</var>
deal with shifts by negative amounts or by more than the width of the mode.
See <a href="Standard-Names.html#shift-patterns">shift patterns</a>.
</p>
<p>On many machines, the shift patterns will apply a mask <var>m</var> to the
shift count, meaning that a fixed-width shift of <var>x</var> by <var>y</var> is
equivalent to an arbitrary-width shift of <var>x</var> by <var>y &amp; m</var>. If
this is true for mode <var>mode</var>, the function should return <var>m</var>,
otherwise it should return 0. A return value of 0 indicates that no
particular behavior is guaranteed.
</p>
<p>Note that, unlike <code>SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED</code>, this function does
<em>not</em> apply to general shift rtxes; it applies only to instructions
that are generated by the named shift patterns.
</p>
<p>The default implementation of this function returns
<code>GET_MODE_BITSIZE (<var>mode</var>) - 1</code> if <code>SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED</code>
and 0 otherwise. This definition is always safe, but if
<code>SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED</code> is false, and some shift patterns
nevertheless truncate the shift count, you may get better code
by overriding it.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-TRULY_005fNOOP_005fTRUNCATION"></a>Macro: <strong>TRULY_NOOP_TRUNCATION</strong> <em>(<var>outprec</var>, <var>inprec</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>A C expression which is nonzero if on this machine it is safe to
&ldquo;convert&rdquo; an integer of <var>inprec</var> bits to one of <var>outprec</var>
bits (where <var>outprec</var> is smaller than <var>inprec</var>) by merely
operating on it as if it had only <var>outprec</var> bits.
</p>
<p>On many machines, this expression can be 1.
</p>
<p>When <code>TRULY_NOOP_TRUNCATION</code> returns 1 for a pair of sizes for
modes for which <code>MODES_TIEABLE_P</code> is 0, suboptimal code can result.
If this is the case, making <code>TRULY_NOOP_TRUNCATION</code> return 0 in
such cases may improve things.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fMODE_005fREP_005fEXTENDED"></a>Target Hook: <em>int</em> <strong>TARGET_MODE_REP_EXTENDED</strong> <em>(enum machine_mode <var>mode</var>, enum machine_mode <var>rep_mode</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>The representation of an integral mode can be such that the values
are always extended to a wider integral mode. Return
<code>SIGN_EXTEND</code> if values of <var>mode</var> are represented in
sign-extended form to <var>rep_mode</var>. Return <code>UNKNOWN</code>
otherwise. (Currently, none of the targets use zero-extended
representation this way so unlike <code>LOAD_EXTEND_OP</code>,
<code>TARGET_MODE_REP_EXTENDED</code> is expected to return either
<code>SIGN_EXTEND</code> or <code>UNKNOWN</code>. Also no target extends
<var>mode</var> to <var>rep_mode</var> so that <var>rep_mode</var> is not the next
widest integral mode and currently we take advantage of this fact.)
</p>
<p>Similarly to <code>LOAD_EXTEND_OP</code> you may return a non-<code>UNKNOWN</code>
value even if the extension is not performed on certain hard registers
as long as for the <code>REGNO_REG_CLASS</code> of these hard registers
<code>CANNOT_CHANGE_MODE_CLASS</code> returns nonzero.
</p>
<p>Note that <code>TARGET_MODE_REP_EXTENDED</code> and <code>LOAD_EXTEND_OP</code>
describe two related properties. If you define
<code>TARGET_MODE_REP_EXTENDED (mode, word_mode)</code> you probably also want
to define <code>LOAD_EXTEND_OP (mode)</code> to return the same type of
extension.
</p>
<p>In order to enforce the representation of <code>mode</code>,
<code>TRULY_NOOP_TRUNCATION</code> should return false when truncating to
<code>mode</code>.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-STORE_005fFLAG_005fVALUE"></a>Macro: <strong>STORE_FLAG_VALUE</strong></dt>
<dd><p>A C expression describing the value returned by a comparison operator
with an integral mode and stored by a store-flag instruction
(&lsquo;<samp>cstore<var>mode</var>4</samp>&rsquo;) when the condition is true. This description must
apply to <em>all</em> the &lsquo;<samp>cstore<var>mode</var>4</samp>&rsquo; patterns and all the
comparison operators whose results have a <code>MODE_INT</code> mode.
</p>
<p>A value of 1 or -1 means that the instruction implementing the
comparison operator returns exactly 1 or -1 when the comparison is true
and 0 when the comparison is false. Otherwise, the value indicates
which bits of the result are guaranteed to be 1 when the comparison is
true. This value is interpreted in the mode of the comparison
operation, which is given by the mode of the first operand in the
&lsquo;<samp>cstore<var>mode</var>4</samp>&rsquo; pattern. Either the low bit or the sign bit of
<code>STORE_FLAG_VALUE</code> be on. Presently, only those bits are used by
the compiler.
</p>
<p>If <code>STORE_FLAG_VALUE</code> is neither 1 or -1, the compiler will
generate code that depends only on the specified bits. It can also
replace comparison operators with equivalent operations if they cause
the required bits to be set, even if the remaining bits are undefined.
For example, on a machine whose comparison operators return an
<code>SImode</code> value and where <code>STORE_FLAG_VALUE</code> is defined as
&lsquo;<samp>0x80000000</samp>&rsquo;, saying that just the sign bit is relevant, the
expression
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">(ne:SI (and:SI <var>x</var> (const_int <var>power-of-2</var>)) (const_int 0))
</pre></div>
<p>can be converted to
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">(ashift:SI <var>x</var> (const_int <var>n</var>))
</pre></div>
<p>where <var>n</var> is the appropriate shift count to move the bit being
tested into the sign bit.
</p>
<p>There is no way to describe a machine that always sets the low-order bit
for a true value, but does not guarantee the value of any other bits,
but we do not know of any machine that has such an instruction. If you
are trying to port GCC to such a machine, include an instruction to
perform a logical-and of the result with 1 in the pattern for the
comparison operators and let us know at <a href="mailto:gcc@gcc.gnu.org">gcc@gcc.gnu.org</a>.
</p>
<p>Often, a machine will have multiple instructions that obtain a value
from a comparison (or the condition codes). Here are rules to guide the
choice of value for <code>STORE_FLAG_VALUE</code>, and hence the instructions
to be used:
</p>
<ul>
<li> Use the shortest sequence that yields a valid definition for
<code>STORE_FLAG_VALUE</code>. It is more efficient for the compiler to
&ldquo;normalize&rdquo; the value (convert it to, e.g., 1 or 0) than for the
comparison operators to do so because there may be opportunities to
combine the normalization with other operations.
</li><li> For equal-length sequences, use a value of 1 or -1, with -1 being
slightly preferred on machines with expensive jumps and 1 preferred on
other machines.
</li><li> As a second choice, choose a value of &lsquo;<samp>0x80000001</samp>&rsquo; if instructions
exist that set both the sign and low-order bits but do not define the
others.
</li><li> Otherwise, use a value of &lsquo;<samp>0x80000000</samp>&rsquo;.
</li></ul>
<p>Many machines can produce both the value chosen for
<code>STORE_FLAG_VALUE</code> and its negation in the same number of
instructions. On those machines, you should also define a pattern for
those cases, e.g., one matching
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">(set <var>A</var> (neg:<var>m</var> (ne:<var>m</var> <var>B</var> <var>C</var>)))
</pre></div>
<p>Some machines can also perform <code>and</code> or <code>plus</code> operations on
condition code values with less instructions than the corresponding
&lsquo;<samp>cstore<var>mode</var>4</samp>&rsquo; insn followed by <code>and</code> or <code>plus</code>. On those
machines, define the appropriate patterns. Use the names <code>incscc</code>
and <code>decscc</code>, respectively, for the patterns which perform
<code>plus</code> or <code>minus</code> operations on condition code values. See
<samp>rs6000.md</samp> for some examples. The GNU Superoptimizer can be used to
find such instruction sequences on other machines.
</p>
<p>If this macro is not defined, the default value, 1, is used. You need
not define <code>STORE_FLAG_VALUE</code> if the machine has no store-flag
instructions, or if the value generated by these instructions is 1.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-FLOAT_005fSTORE_005fFLAG_005fVALUE"></a>Macro: <strong>FLOAT_STORE_FLAG_VALUE</strong> <em>(<var>mode</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>A C expression that gives a nonzero <code>REAL_VALUE_TYPE</code> value that is
returned when comparison operators with floating-point results are true.
Define this macro on machines that have comparison operations that return
floating-point values. If there are no such operations, do not define
this macro.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-VECTOR_005fSTORE_005fFLAG_005fVALUE"></a>Macro: <strong>VECTOR_STORE_FLAG_VALUE</strong> <em>(<var>mode</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>A C expression that gives a rtx representing the nonzero true element
for vector comparisons. The returned rtx should be valid for the inner
mode of <var>mode</var> which is guaranteed to be a vector mode. Define
this macro on machines that have vector comparison operations that
return a vector result. If there are no such operations, do not define
this macro. Typically, this macro is defined as <code>const1_rtx</code> or
<code>constm1_rtx</code>. This macro may return <code>NULL_RTX</code> to prevent
the compiler optimizing such vector comparison operations for the
given mode.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-CLZ_005fDEFINED_005fVALUE_005fAT_005fZERO"></a>Macro: <strong>CLZ_DEFINED_VALUE_AT_ZERO</strong> <em>(<var>mode</var>, <var>value</var>)</em></dt>
<dt><a name="index-CTZ_005fDEFINED_005fVALUE_005fAT_005fZERO"></a>Macro: <strong>CTZ_DEFINED_VALUE_AT_ZERO</strong> <em>(<var>mode</var>, <var>value</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>A C expression that indicates whether the architecture defines a value
for <code>clz</code> or <code>ctz</code> with a zero operand.
A result of <code>0</code> indicates the value is undefined.
If the value is defined for only the RTL expression, the macro should
evaluate to <code>1</code>; if the value applies also to the corresponding optab
entry (which is normally the case if it expands directly into
the corresponding RTL), then the macro should evaluate to <code>2</code>.
In the cases where the value is defined, <var>value</var> should be set to
this value.
</p>
<p>If this macro is not defined, the value of <code>clz</code> or
<code>ctz</code> at zero is assumed to be undefined.
</p>
<p>This macro must be defined if the target&rsquo;s expansion for <code>ffs</code>
relies on a particular value to get correct results. Otherwise it
is not necessary, though it may be used to optimize some corner cases, and
to provide a default expansion for the <code>ffs</code> optab.
</p>
<p>Note that regardless of this macro the &ldquo;definedness&rdquo; of <code>clz</code>
and <code>ctz</code> at zero do <em>not</em> extend to the builtin functions
visible to the user. Thus one may be free to adjust the value at will
to match the target expansion of these operations without fear of
breaking the API.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-Pmode"></a>Macro: <strong>Pmode</strong></dt>
<dd><p>An alias for the machine mode for pointers. On most machines, define
this to be the integer mode corresponding to the width of a hardware
pointer; <code>SImode</code> on 32-bit machine or <code>DImode</code> on 64-bit machines.
On some machines you must define this to be one of the partial integer
modes, such as <code>PSImode</code>.
</p>
<p>The width of <code>Pmode</code> must be at least as large as the value of
<code>POINTER_SIZE</code>. If it is not equal, you must define the macro
<code>POINTERS_EXTEND_UNSIGNED</code> to specify how pointers are extended
to <code>Pmode</code>.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-FUNCTION_005fMODE"></a>Macro: <strong>FUNCTION_MODE</strong></dt>
<dd><p>An alias for the machine mode used for memory references to functions
being called, in <code>call</code> RTL expressions. On most CISC machines,
where an instruction can begin at any byte address, this should be
<code>QImode</code>. On most RISC machines, where all instructions have fixed
size and alignment, this should be a mode with the same size and alignment
as the machine instruction words - typically <code>SImode</code> or <code>HImode</code>.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-STDC_005f0_005fIN_005fSYSTEM_005fHEADERS"></a>Macro: <strong>STDC_0_IN_SYSTEM_HEADERS</strong></dt>
<dd><p>In normal operation, the preprocessor expands <code>__STDC__</code> to the
constant 1, to signify that GCC conforms to ISO Standard C. On some
hosts, like Solaris, the system compiler uses a different convention,
where <code>__STDC__</code> is normally 0, but is 1 if the user specifies
strict conformance to the C Standard.
</p>
<p>Defining <code>STDC_0_IN_SYSTEM_HEADERS</code> makes GNU CPP follows the host
convention when processing system header files, but when processing user
files <code>__STDC__</code> will always expand to 1.
</p></dd></dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fC_005fPREINCLUDE"></a>C Target Hook: <em>const char *</em> <strong>TARGET_C_PREINCLUDE</strong> <em>(void)</em></dt>
<dd><p>Define this hook to return the name of a header file to be included at the start of all compilations, as if it had been included with <code>#include &lt;<var>file</var>&gt;</code>. If this hook returns <code>NULL</code>, or is not defined, or the header is not found, or if the user specifies <samp>-ffreestanding</samp> or <samp>-nostdinc</samp>, no header is included.
</p>
<p>This hook can be used together with a header provided by the system C library to implement ISO C requirements for certain macros to be predefined that describe properties of the whole implementation rather than just the compiler.
</p></dd></dl>

</p>
<p>The primary reason to define this macro is to provide compatibility with

<dd>
<p>Each call to <code>c_register_pragma</code> or
<code>c_register_pragma_with_expansion</code> establishes one pragma. The
<var>callback</var> routine will be called when the preprocessor encounters a
pragma of the form
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">#pragma [<var>space</var>] <var>name</var> &hellip;
</pre></div>
<p><var>space</var> is the case-sensitive namespace of the pragma, or
<code>NULL</code> to put the pragma in the global namespace. The callback
routine receives <var>pfile</var> as its first argument, which can be passed
on to cpplib&rsquo;s functions if necessary. You can lex tokens after the
<var>name</var> by calling <code>pragma_lex</code>. Tokens that are not read by the
callback will be silently ignored. The end of the line is indicated by
a token of type <code>CPP_EOF</code>. Macro expansion occurs on the
arguments of pragmas registered with
<code>c_register_pragma_with_expansion</code> but not on the arguments of
pragmas registered with <code>c_register_pragma</code>.
</p>
<p>Note that the use of <code>pragma_lex</code> is specific to the C and C++
compilers. It will not work in the Java or Fortran compilers, or any
other language compilers for that matter. Thus if <code>pragma_lex</code> is going
to be called from target-specific code, it must only be done so when
building the C and C++ compilers. This can be done by defining the
variables <code>c_target_objs</code> and <code>cxx_target_objs</code> in the
target entry in the <samp>config.gcc</samp> file. These variables should name
the target-specific, language-specific object file which contains the
code that uses <code>pragma_lex</code>. Note it will also be necessary to add a
rule to the makefile fragment pointed to by <code>tmake_file</code> that shows
how to build this object file.

<dd><p>The compiler invokes this hook whenever it changes its current function
context (<code>cfun</code>). You can define this function if
the back end needs to perform any initialization or reset actions on a
per-function basis. For example, it may be used to implement function
attributes that affect register usage or code generation patterns.
The argument <var>decl</var> is the declaration for the new function context,
and may be null to indicate that the compiler has left a function context
and is returning to processing at the top level.
The default hook function does nothing.
</p>
<p>GCC sets <code>cfun</code> to a dummy function context during initialization of
some parts of the back end. The hook function is not invoked in this
situation; you need not worry about the hook being invoked recursively,
or when the back end is in a partially-initialized state.
<code>cfun</code> might be <code>NULL</code> to indicate processing at top level,
outside of any function scope.

<dd><p>On some architectures it can take multiple instructions to synthesize
a constant. If there is another constant already in a register that
is close enough in value then it is preferable that the new constant
is computed from this register using immediate addition or
subtraction. We accomplish this through CSE. Besides the value of
the constant we also add a lower and an upper constant anchor to the
available expressions. These are then queried when encountering new
constants. The anchors are computed by rounding the constant up and
down to a multiple of the value of <code>TARGET_CONST_ANCHOR</code>.
<code>TARGET_CONST_ANCHOR</code> should be the maximum positive value
accepted by immediate-add plus one. We currently assume that the
value of <code>TARGET_CONST_ANCHOR</code> is a power of 2. For example, on
MIPS, where add-immediate takes a 16-bit signed value,
<code>TARGET_CONST_ANCHOR</code> is set to &lsquo;<samp>0x8000</samp>&rsquo;. The default value
