<h3 class="section">3.12 Passing Options to the Assembler</h3>
<!-- prevent bad page break with this line -->
<p>You can pass options to the assembler.
<dl>
<dt><code>-Wa,</code><var>option</var><dd><a name="index-Wa-1200"></a>Pass <var>option</var> as an option to the assembler. If <var>option</var>
contains commas, it is split into multiple options at the commas.
<br><dt><code>-Xassembler </code><var>option</var><dd><a name="index-Xassembler-1201"></a>Pass <var>option</var> as an option to the assembler. You can use this to
supply system-specific assembler options that GCC does not
recognize.
<p>If you want to pass an option that takes an argument, you must use
<samp><span class="option">-Xassembler</span></samp> twice, once for the option and once for the argument.
