-qoption | spill=512 | SPILL=size | x | x |
Syntax
-qspill=size SPILL=size
Purpose
Specifies the register allocation spill area as being size bytes.
Notes
If your program is very complex, or if there are too many computations to hold in
registers at one time and your program needs temporary storage, you might need to increase
this area. Do not enlarge the spill area unless the compiler issues a message requesting a
larger spill area. In case of a conflict, the largest spill area specified is used.
Example
If you received a warning message when compiling myprogram.c and want to compile it
specifying a spill area of 900 entries, enter:
xlC myprogram.c -qspill=900
