<a name="index-i386-options"></a>
<a name="index-x86_002d64-options"></a>
<p>The i386 version of <code>as</code> has a few machine
dependent options:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dd><a name="index-_002d_002d32-option_002c-i386"></a>
<a name="index-_002d_002d32-option_002c-x86_002d64"></a>

<a name="index-_002d_002d64-option_002c-i386"></a>
<a name="index-_002d_002d64-option_002c-x86_002d64"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>--32 | --x32 | --64</code></dt>
<dd><p>Select the word size, either 32 bits or 64 bits. &lsquo;<samp>--32</samp>&rsquo;
implies Intel i386 architecture, while &lsquo;<samp>--x32</samp>&rsquo; and &lsquo;<samp>--64</samp>&rsquo;
imply AMD x86-64 architecture with 32-bit or 64-bit word-size
respectively.
</p>
<p>These options are only available with the ELF object file format, and
require that the necessary BFD support has been included (on a 32-bit
platform you have to add &ndash;enable-64-bit-bfd to configure enable 64-bit
usage and use x86-64 as target platform).
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-n</code></dt>
<dd><p>By default, x86 GAS replaces multiple nop instructions used for
alignment within code sections with multi-byte nop instructions such
as leal 0(%esi,1),%esi. This switch disables the optimization.
</p>
<a name="index-_002d_002ddivide-option_002c-i386"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>--divide</code></dt>
<dd><p>On SVR4-derived platforms, the character &lsquo;<samp>/</samp>&rsquo; is treated as a comment
character, which means that it cannot be used in expressions. The
&lsquo;<samp>--divide</samp>&rsquo; option turns &lsquo;<samp>/</samp>&rsquo; into a normal character. This does
not disable &lsquo;<samp>/</samp>&rsquo; at the beginning of a line starting a comment, or
affect using &lsquo;<samp>#</samp>&rsquo; for starting a comment.
</p>

</dd>
<dt><code>-march=<var>CPU</var>[+<var>EXTENSION</var>&hellip;]</code></dt>
<dd><p>This option specifies the target processor. The assembler will
issue an error message if an attempt is made to assemble an instruction
which will not execute on the target processor. The following
processor names are recognized:

</p>
<p>In addition to the basic instruction set, the assembler can be told to
accept various extension mnemonics. For example,
<code>-march=i686+sse4+vmx</code> extends <var>i686</var> with <var>sse4</var> and
<var>vmx</var>. The following extensions are currently supported:

Note that rather than extending a basic instruction set, the extension
mnemonics starting with <code>no</code> revoke the respective functionality.

<p>When the <code>.arch</code> directive is used with <samp>-march</samp>, the
<code>.arch</code> directive will take precedent.
