<p><a name="index-options-for-SPARC-2139"></a><a name="index-SPARC-options-2140"></a><a name="index-architectures_002c-SPARC-2141"></a><a name="index-SPARC-architectures-2142"></a>The SPARC chip family includes several successive versions, using the same
core instruction set, but including a few additional instructions at
each version. There are exceptions to this however. For details on what
instructions each variant supports, please see the chip's architecture
reference manual.
<p>By default, <code>as</code> assumes the core instruction set (SPARC
v6), but &ldquo;bumps&rdquo; the architecture level as needed: it switches to
successively higher architectures as it encounters instructions that
only exist in the higher levels.
<p>If not configured for SPARC v9 (<code>sparc64-*-*</code>) GAS will not bump
past sparclite by default, an option must be passed to enable the
v9 instructions.
<p>GAS treats sparclite as being compatible with v8, unless an architecture
is explicitly requested. SPARC v9 is always incompatible with sparclite.
<!-- The order here is the same as the order of enum sparc_opcode_arch_val -->
<!-- to give the user a sense of the order of the "bumping". -->
