+<h4 class="subsection">3.19.11 Darwin Options</h4>
+<a name="index-Darwin-options"></a>
+
+<p>These options are defined for all architectures running the Darwin operating
+system.
+</p>
+<p>FSF GCC on Darwin does not create &ldquo;fat&rdquo; object files; it creates
+an object file for the single architecture that GCC was built to
+target. Apple&rsquo;s GCC on Darwin does create &ldquo;fat&rdquo; files if multiple
+<samp>-arch</samp> options are used; it does so by running the compiler or
+linker multiple times and joining the results together with
+<samp>lipo</samp>.
+</p>
+<p>The subtype of the file created (like &lsquo;<samp>ppc7400</samp>&rsquo; or &lsquo;<samp>ppc970</samp>&rsquo; or
+&lsquo;<samp>i686</samp>&rsquo;) is determined by the flags that specify the ISA
+that GCC is targeting, like <samp>-mcpu</samp> or <samp>-march</samp>. The
+<samp>-force_cpusubtype_ALL</samp> option can be used to override this.
+</p>
+<p>The Darwin tools vary in their behavior when presented with an ISA
+mismatch. The assembler, <samp>as</samp>, only permits instructions to
+be used that are valid for the subtype of the file it is generating,
+so you cannot put 64-bit instructions in a &lsquo;<samp>ppc750</samp>&rsquo; object file.
+The linker for shared libraries, <samp>/usr/bin/libtool</samp>, fails
+and prints an error if asked to create a shared library with a less
+restrictive subtype than its input files (for instance, trying to put
+a &lsquo;<samp>ppc970</samp>&rsquo; object file in a &lsquo;<samp>ppc7400</samp>&rsquo; library). The linker
+for executables, <code>ld</code>, quietly gives the executable the most
+restrictive subtype of any of its input files.
+</p>
+<dl compact="compact">
+<dd><a name="index-F"></a>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>-F<var>dir</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Add the framework directory <var>dir</var> to the head of the list of
+directories to be searched for header files. These directories are
+interleaved with those specified by <samp>-I</samp> options and are
+scanned in a left-to-right order.
+</p>
+<p>A framework directory is a directory with frameworks in it. A
+framework is a directory with a <samp>Headers</samp> and/or
+<samp>PrivateHeaders</samp> directory contained directly in it that ends
+in <samp>.framework</samp>. The name of a framework is the name of this
+directory excluding the <samp>.framework</samp>. Headers associated with
+the framework are found in one of those two directories, with
+<samp>Headers</samp> being searched first. A subframework is a framework
+directory that is in a framework&rsquo;s <samp>Frameworks</samp> directory.
+Includes of subframework headers can only appear in a header of a
+framework that contains the subframework, or in a sibling subframework
+header. Two subframeworks are siblings if they occur in the same
+framework. A subframework should not have the same name as a
+framework; a warning is issued if this is violated. Currently a
+subframework cannot have subframeworks; in the future, the mechanism
+may be extended to support this. The standard frameworks can be found
+in <samp>/System/Library/Frameworks</samp> and
+<samp>/Library/Frameworks</samp>. An example include looks like
+<code>#include &lt;Framework/header.h&gt;</code>, where <samp>Framework</samp> denotes
+the name of the framework and <samp>header.h</samp> is found in the
+<samp>PrivateHeaders</samp> or <samp>Headers</samp> directory.
+</p>
+<a name="index-iframework"></a>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>-iframework<var>dir</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Like <samp>-F</samp> except the directory is a treated as a system
+directory. The main difference between this <samp>-iframework</samp> and
+<samp>-F</samp> is that with <samp>-iframework</samp> the compiler does not
+warn about constructs contained within header files found via
+<var>dir</var>. This option is valid only for the C family of languages.
+</p>
+<a name="index-gused"></a>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>-gused</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Emit debugging information for symbols that are used. For stabs
+debugging format, this enables <samp>-feliminate-unused-debug-symbols</samp>.
+This is by default ON.
+</p>
+<a name="index-gfull"></a>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>-gfull</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Emit debugging information for all symbols and types.
+</p>
+<a name="index-fconstant_002dcfstrings"></a>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>-fconstant-cfstrings</code></dt>
+<dd><p>The <samp>-fconstant-cfstrings</samp> is an alias for <samp>-mconstant-cfstrings</samp>.
+</p>
+<a name="index-mconstant_002dcfstrings"></a>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>-mconstant-cfstrings</code></dt>
+<dd><p>When the NeXT runtime is being used (the default on these systems), override
+any <samp>-fconstant-string-class</samp> setting and cause <code>@&quot;&hellip;&quot;</code>
+literals to be laid out as constant CoreFoundation strings.
+</p>
+<a name="index-mmacosx_002dversion_002dmin"></a>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>-mmacosx-version-min=<var>version</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>The earliest version of MacOS X that this executable will run on is
+<var>version</var>. Typical values supported for <var>version</var> include <code>12</code>,
+<code>10.12</code>, and <code>10.5.8</code>.
+</p>
+<p>If the compiler was built to use the system&rsquo;s headers by default,
+then the default for this option is the system version on which the
+compiler is running, otherwise the default is to make choices that
+are compatible with as many systems and code bases as possible.
+</p>
+<a name="index-mkernel"></a>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>-mkernel</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Enable kernel development mode. The <samp>-mkernel</samp> option sets
+<samp>-static</samp>, <samp>-fno-common</samp>, <samp>-fno-use-cxa-atexit</samp>,
+<samp>-fno-exceptions</samp>, <samp>-fno-non-call-exceptions</samp>,
+<samp>-fapple-kext</samp>, <samp>-fno-weak</samp> and <samp>-fno-rtti</samp> where
+applicable. This mode also sets <samp>-mno-altivec</samp>,
+<samp>-msoft-float</samp>, <samp>-fno-builtin</samp> and
+<samp>-mlong-branch</samp> for PowerPC targets.
+</p>
+<a name="index-mone_002dbyte_002dbool"></a>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>-mone-byte-bool</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Override the defaults for <code>bool</code> so that <code>sizeof(bool)==1</code>.
+By default <code>sizeof(bool)</code> is <code>4</code> when compiling for
+Darwin/PowerPC and <code>1</code> when compiling for Darwin/x86, so this
+option has no effect on x86.
+</p>
+<p><strong>Warning:</strong> The <samp>-mone-byte-bool</samp> switch causes GCC
+to generate code that is not binary compatible with code generated
+without that switch. Using this switch may require recompiling all
+other modules in a program, including system libraries. Use this
+switch to conform to a non-default data model.
