@item -bump
Warn whenever it is necessary to switch to another level.
Select the word size, either 32 bits or 64 bits.
These options are only available with the ELF object file format,

+@item --dcti-couples-detect
+Warn if a DCTI (delayed control transfer instruction) couple is found
+when generating code for a variant of the SPARC architecture in which

or quad numbered accesses are allowed. For example, @samp{%f34}
is a legal floating point register, but @samp{%f35} is not.
+Floating point registers accessed as double can also be referred using
+the @samp{%d@var{n}} notation, where @var{n} is even. Similarly,
+floating point registers accessed as quad can be referred using the
+@samp{%q@var{n}} notation, where @var{n} is a multiple of 4. For
+example, @samp{%f4} can be denoted as both @samp{%d4} and @samp{%q4}.
+On the other hand, @samp{%f2} can be denoted as @samp{%d2} but not as
+@samp{%q2}.
+
Certain V9 instructions allow access to ancillary state registers.
Most simply they can be referred to as @samp{%asr@var{n}} where
@var{n} can be from 16 to 31. However, there are some aliases
specification of which set of integer condition codes to
test. These are referred to as @samp{%xcc} and @samp{%icc}.
+Additionally, GAS supports the so-called ``natural'' condition codes;
+these are referred to as @samp{%ncc} and reference to @samp{%icc} if
+the word size is 32, @samp{%xcc} if the word size is 64.
+
In V9, there are 4 sets of floating point condition codes
which are referred to as @samp{%fcc@var{n}}.
The hyperprivileged implementation version register is referred
to as @samp{%hver}.
+@item
+The hyperprivileged system tick offset register is referred to as
+@samp{%hstick_offset}. Note that there is no @samp{%hstick} register,
+the normal @samp{%stick} is used.
+
+@item
+The hyperprivileged system tick enable register is referred to as
+@samp{%hstick_enable}.

The hyperprivileged system tick compare register is referred

+The @samp{%l34} generates a @code{R_SPARC_L44} relocation because it
+calculates the necessary value, and therefore no explicit
+@code{R_SPARC_L34} relocation needed to be created for this purpose.
+
+The @samp{%h34} and @samp{%l34} relocations are used for the abs34 code
+model. Here is an example abs34 address generation sequence:
+
+@example
+sethi %h34(symbol), %g1
+sllx %g1, 2, %g1
+or %g1, %l34(symbol), %g1
+@end example

The PC relative relocation @code{R_SPARC_PC22} can be obtained by
enclosing an operand inside of @samp{%pc22}. Likewise, the
@code{R_SPARC_PC10} relocation can be obtained using @samp{%pc10}.
