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.
