Selecting one of the following will take you directly to that section:
Perform optimizations for maximum performance. This includes maximum interprocedural analysis on all of the objects presented on the "link" step. This level of optimization will increase the compiler's memory usage and compile time requirements. -O5 Provides all of the functionality of the -O4 option, but also provides the functionality of the -qipa=level=2 option.
-O5 is equivalent to the following flags
Perform optimizations for maximum performance. This includes interprocedural analysis on all of the objects presented on the "link" step.
-O4 is equivalent to the following flags
-O3 Performs additional optimizations that are memory intensive, compile-time intensive, and may change the semantics of the program slightly, unless -qstrict is specified. We recommend these optimizations when the desire for run-time speed improvements outweighs the concern for limiting compile-time resources.
-O3 is equivalent to the following flags
Produces object code containing instructions that will run on the specified processors. "auto" selects the processor the compile is being done on. "pwr5x" is the POWER5+ processor.
Supported values for this flag are
Specifies the system architecture for which the executable program is optimized. This includes instruction scheduling and cache setting. The supported values for suboption are:
This option inlines glue code that optimizes external function calls when compiling.
Performs high-order transformations on loops during optimization. The supported values for suboption are:
Specifying -qhot without suboptions implies -qhot=nosimd, -qhot=noarraypad, -qhot=vector and -qhot=level=1. The -qhot option is also implied by -O4, and -O5.
Enhances optimization by doing detailed analysis across procedures (interprocedural analysis or IPA). The level determines the amount of interprocedural analysis and optimization that is performed.
level=0 Does only minimal interprocedural analysis and optimization
level=1 turns on inlining , limited alias analysis, and limited call-site tailoring
level=2 turns on full interprocedural data flow and alias analysis
The option used in the first pass of a profile directed feedback compile that causes pdf information to be generated. The profile directed feedback optimization gathers data on both execution path and data values. It does not use hardware counters, nor gather any data other than path and data values for PDF specific optimizations.
The option used in the second pass of a profile directed feedback compile that causes PDF information to be utilized during optimization.
-qxlf90=
Determines whether the compiler provides the
Fortran 90 or the Fortran 95 level of support for
certain aspects of the language. can be
one of the following:
signedzero | nosignedzero
Determines how the SIGN(A,B) function handles
signed real 0.0. In addition, determines
whether negative internal values will be
prefixed with a minus when formatted output
would produce a negative sign zero.
autodealloc | noautodealloc
Determines whether the compiler deallocates
allocatable arrays that are declared locally
without either the SAVE or the STATIC
attribute and have a status of currently
allocated when the subprogram terminates.
oldpad | nooldpad
When the PAD=specifier is present in the
INQUIRE statement, specifying -qxlf90=nooldpad
returns UNDEFINED when there is no connection,
or when the connection is for unformatted I/O.
This behavior conforms with the Fortran 95
standard and above. Specifying -qxlf90=oldpad
preserves the Fortran 90 behavior.
Default:
o signedzero, autodealloc and nooldpad for the
xlf95, xlf95_r, xlf95_r7 and f95 invocation
commands.
o nosignedzero, noautodealloc and oldpad for
all other invocation commands.
Generates 64 bit ABI binaries. The default is to generate 32 bit ABI binaries.
Causes the system loader to put the heap in it's own segment of the size specified. This is only required for 32-bit applications, as their segments are 256M. If the last digit of the value is "C", then it also turns off the malloc pool option for that executable.
Specifies a non-default page size of 64K for the program data segment.
Specifies a non-default page size of 64K for the program stack segment.
Specifies a non-default page size of 64K for the program text segment.
Sets the bit in the file's XCOFF header indicating that this executable will request the use of large pages when they are available on the system and when the user has an appropriate privilege
Indicates that a program, designed to execute in a large page memory environment, can take advantage of large 16 MB pages provided on POWER4 and higher based systems.
Indicates that the compiler understands how to do alloca().
Causes the Fortran compiler to allocate dynamic arrays on the heap instead of the stack
Enables the generation of vector instructions for processors that support them.
Specifies whether to use volatile or non-volatile vector registers. Volatile vector registers are registers whose value is not preserved across function calls so the compiler will not depend on values in them across function calls.
The __IBM_FAST_VECTOR macro defines a different iterator for the std::vector template class. This iterator results in faster code, but is not compatible with code using the default iterator for a std::vector template class. All uses of std::vector for a data type must use the same iterator. Add -D__IBM_FAST_VECTOR to the compile line, or "#define __IBM_FAST_VECTOR 1" to your source code to use the faster iterator for std::vector template class. You must compile all sources with this macro.
Causes AIX to define "ischar()" (and friends) as macro's and not subroutines.
Link the mathematical acceleration subsystem libraries (MASS), which contain libraries of tuned mathematical intrinsic functions.
Link the Engineering and Scientific Subroutine Library (ESSL).
Specifies that, if either -lessl or -lesslsmp are also specified, then Engineering and Scientific Subroutine Library (ESSL) routines should be used in place of some Fortran 90 intrinsic procedures when there is a safe opportunity to do so.
Cause the C++ compiler to generate Run Time Type Identification code
qalias=ansi | noansi If ansi is specified, type-based aliasing is used during optimization, which restricts the lvalues that can be safely used to access a data object. The default is ansi for the xlc, xlC, and c89 commands. This option has no effect unless you also specify the -O option. qalias=std |nostd Indicates whether the compilation units contain any non-standard aliasing (see Compiler Reference for more information). If so, specify nostd.
Specifies what aggregate alignment rules the
compiler uses for file compilation, where the
alignment options are:
bit_packed
The compiler uses the bit_packed alignment
rules.
full
The compiler uses the RISC System/6000
alignment rules. This is the same as power.
mac68k
The compiler uses the Macintosh alignment
rules. This suboption is valid only for 32-
bit compilations.
natural
The compiler maps structure members to their
natural boundaries.
packed
The compiler uses the packed alignment rules.
power
The compiler uses the RISC System/6000
alignment rules.
twobyte
The compiler uses the Macintosh alignment
rules. This suboption is valid only for 32-
bit compilations. The mac68k option is the
same as twobyte.
The default is -qalign=full.
Turns off aggressive optimizations which have the
potential to alter the semantics of your program.
-qstrict sets -qfloat=nofltint:norsqrt. -qnostrict
sets -qfloat=rsqrt. This option is only valid with
-O2 or higher optimization levels.
Default:
o -qnostrict at -O3 or higher.
o -qstrict otherwise.
Allows most any c dialect.
The compiler generates additional symbol information for use by the AIX "fdprpro" code optimizer.
Causes the compiler to treat "char" variables as signed instead of the default of unsigned.
Indicates that the input fortran source program is in fixed form.
Adds an underscore to global entities to match the C compiler ABI
Permits the usage of "//" to introduce a comment that lasts until the end of the current source line, as in C++.
Specifies whether to include standard object code in the object files. The noobject suboption can substantially reduce overall compilation time, by not generating object code during the first IPA phase.
The threads suboption allows the IPA optimizer to run portions of the optimization process in parallel threads, which can speed up the compilation process on multi-processor systems. All the available threads, or the number specified by N, are used. N must be a positive integer. Specifying nothreads does not run any parallel threads; this is equivalent to running one serial thread.
Causes the compiler to output a traceback if it abends.
Suppresses the message with the message number specified.
Suppresses informational, language-level, and warning messages. This option sets -qflag=e:e.
Usage: chsyscfg -r lpar | prof | sys | sysprof | frame
-m <managed system> | -e <managed frame>
-f <configuration file> | -i "<configuration data>"
[--help]
Changes partitions, partition profiles, system profiles, or the attributes of a
managed system or a managed frame.
-r - the type of resource(s) to be changed:
lpar - partition

sysprof - system profile
frame - managed frame
-m <managed system> - the managed system's name
-e <managed frame> - the managed frame's name

The format is:
"attr_name1=value,attr_name2=value,..."
or
