+
+<p>In GNU C and C++, you can use function attributes to specify certain
+function properties that may help the compiler optimize calls or
+check code more carefully for correctness. For example, you
+can use attributes to specify that a function never returns
+(<code>noreturn</code>), returns a value depending only on the values of
+its arguments (<code>const</code>), or has <code>printf</code>-style arguments
+(<code>format</code>).
+</p>
+<p>You can also use attributes to control memory placement, code
+generation options or call/return conventions within the function
+being annotated. Many of these attributes are target-specific. For
+example, many targets support attributes for defining interrupt
+handler functions, which typically must follow special register usage
+and return conventions. Such attributes are described in the subsection
+for each target. However, a considerable number of attributes are
+supported by most, if not all targets. Those are described in
+the <a href="Common-Function-Attributes.html#Common-Function-Attributes">Common Function Attributes</a> section.
+</p>
+<p>Function attributes are introduced by the <code>__attribute__</code> keyword
+in the declaration of a function, followed by an attribute specification
+enclosed in double parentheses. You can specify multiple attributes in
+a declaration by separating them by commas within the double parentheses
+or by immediately following one attribute specification with another.
+See <a href="Attribute-Syntax.html#Attribute-Syntax">Attribute Syntax</a>, for the exact rules on attribute syntax and
+placement. Compatible attribute specifications on distinct declarations
+of the same function are merged. An attribute specification that is not
+compatible with attributes already applied to a declaration of the same
+function is ignored with a warning.
+</p>
+<p>Some function attributes take one or more arguments that refer to
+the function&rsquo;s parameters by their positions within the function parameter
+list. Such attribute arguments are referred to as <em>positional arguments</em>.
+Unless specified otherwise, positional arguments that specify properties
+of parameters with pointer types can also specify the same properties of
+the implicit C++ <code>this</code> argument in non-static member functions, and
+of parameters of reference to a pointer type. For ordinary functions,
+position one refers to the first parameter on the list. In C++ non-static
+member functions, position one refers to the implicit <code>this</code> pointer.
+The same restrictions and effects apply to function attributes used with
+ordinary functions or C++ member functions.
+</p>
+<p>GCC also supports attributes on
+variable declarations (see <a href="Variable-Attributes.html#Variable-Attributes">Variable Attributes</a>),
+labels (see <a href="Label-Attributes.html#Label-Attributes">Label Attributes</a>),
+enumerators (see <a href="Enumerator-Attributes.html#Enumerator-Attributes">Enumerator Attributes</a>),
+statements (see <a href="Statement-Attributes.html#Statement-Attributes">Statement Attributes</a>),
+types (see <a href="Type-Attributes.html#Type-Attributes">Type Attributes</a>),
+and on field declarations (for <code>tainted_args</code>).
+</p>
+<p>There is some overlap between the purposes of attributes and pragmas
+(see <a href="Pragmas.html#Pragmas">Pragmas Accepted by GCC</a>). It has been
+found convenient to use <code>__attribute__</code> to achieve a natural
+attachment of attributes to their corresponding declarations, whereas
+<code>#pragma</code> is of use for compatibility with other compilers
+or constructs that do not naturally form part of the grammar.
+</p>
+<p>In addition to the attributes documented here,
+GCC plugins may provide their own attributes.
