However, some machines, have instructions that preferentially handle
either signed or unsigned quantities of certain modes. For example, on
the DEC Alpha, 32-bit loads from memory and 32-bit add instructions
sign-extend the result to 64 bits. On such machines, set

&mdash; Macro: <b>PCC_BITFIELD_TYPE_MATTERS</b><var><a name="index-PCC_005fBITFIELD_005fTYPE_005fMATTERS-3964"></a></var><br>
<blockquote><p>Define this if you wish to imitate the way many other C compilers handle
alignment of bit-fields and the structures that contain them.
<p>The behavior is that the type written for a named bit-field (<code>int</code>,
<code>short</code>, or other integer type) imposes an alignment for the entire
structure, as if the structure really did contain an ordinary field of
that type. In addition, the bit-field is placed within the structure so
that it would fit within such a field, not crossing a boundary for it.
<p>Thus, on most machines, a named bit-field whose type is written as
<code>int</code> would not cross a four-byte boundary, and would force
four-byte alignment for the whole structure. (The alignment used may
not be four bytes; it is controlled by the other alignment parameters.)
<p>An unnamed bit-field will not affect the alignment of the containing
structure.
<p>If the macro is defined, its definition should be a C expression;
a nonzero value for the expression enables this behavior.
<p>Note that if this macro is not defined, or its value is zero, some
bit-fields may cross more than one alignment boundary. The compiler can
support such references if there are &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">insv</span></samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">extv</span></samp>&rsquo;, and
&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">extzv</span></samp>&rsquo; insns that can directly reference memory.
<p>The other known way of making bit-fields work is to define
<code>STRUCTURE_SIZE_BOUNDARY</code> as large as <code>BIGGEST_ALIGNMENT</code>.
Then every structure can be accessed with fullwords.
<p>Unless the machine has bit-field instructions or you define
<code>STRUCTURE_SIZE_BOUNDARY</code> that way, you must define
<code>PCC_BITFIELD_TYPE_MATTERS</code> to have a nonzero value.
<p>If your aim is to make GCC use the same conventions for laying out
bit-fields as are used by another compiler, here is how to investigate
what the other compiler does. Compile and run this program:

<blockquote><p>This target hook returns <code>true</code> if bit-fields in the given

unit with the previous bit-field if their underlying types have
different sizes, and the bit-field will be aligned to the highest
alignment of the underlying types of itself and of the previous
bit-field; (ii) a zero-sized bit-field will affect the alignment of
the whole enclosing structure, even if it is unnamed; except that
(iii) a zero-sized bit-field will be disregarded unless it follows
another bit-field of nonzero size. If this hook returns <code>true</code>,
other macros that control bit-field layout are ignored.
<p>When a bit-field is inserted into a packed record, the whole size
of the underlying type is used by one or more same-size adjacent
bit-fields (that is, if its long:3, 32 bits is used in the record,
and any additional adjacent long bit-fields are packed into the same
chunk of 32 bits. However, if the size changes, a new field of that
size is allocated). In an unpacked record, this is the same as using
alignment, but not equivalent when packing.
<p>If both MS bit-fields and &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">__attribute__((packed))</span></samp>&rsquo; are used,
the latter will take precedence. If &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">__attribute__((packed))</span></samp>&rsquo; is

precedence for that field, but the alignment of the rest of the structure

<blockquote><p>If your target defines any fundamental types, or any types your target
uses should be mangled differently from the default, define this hook
to return the appropriate encoding for these types as part of a C++
mangled name. The <var>type</var> argument is the tree structure representing
the type to be mangled. The hook may be applied to trees which are
not target-specific fundamental types; it should return <code>NULL</code>
for all such types, as well as arguments it does not recognize. If the
return value is not <code>NULL</code>, it must point to a statically-allocated
string constant.
<p>Target-specific fundamental types might be new fundamental types or
qualified versions of ordinary fundamental types. Encode new
fundamental types as &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">u&nbsp;</span><var>n</var><span class="samp">&nbsp;</span><var>name</var><span class="samp"><!-- /@w --></span></samp>&rsquo;, where <var>name</var>
is the name used for the type in source code, and <var>n</var> is the
length of <var>name</var> in decimal. Encode qualified versions of
ordinary types as &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">U&nbsp;</span><var>n</var><span class="samp">&nbsp;</span><var>name</var><span class="samp">&nbsp;</span><var>code</var><span class="samp"><!-- /@w --></span></samp>&rsquo;, where
<var>name</var> is the name used for the type qualifier in source code,
<var>n</var> is the length of <var>name</var> as above, and <var>code</var> is the
code used to represent the unqualified version of this type. (See
<code>write_builtin_type</code> in <samp><span class="file">cp/mangle.c</span></samp> for the list of
codes.) In both cases the spaces are for clarity; do not include any
spaces in your string.
<p>This hook is applied to types prior to typedef resolution. If the mangled
name for a particular type depends only on that type's main variant, you
can perform typedef resolution yourself using <code>TYPE_MAIN_VARIANT</code>
before mangling.
<p>The default version of this hook always returns <code>NULL</code>, which is
appropriate for a target that does not define any new fundamental
types.
