<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <title> GCC 13 Release Series — Changes, New Features, and Fixes - GNU Project</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="gcc.css"> </head> <!-- GCC maintainers, please do not hesitate to contribute/update entries concerning those part of GCC you maintain! --> <body> <h1>GCC 13 Release Series<br>Changes, New Features, and Fixes</h1> <p> This page is a "brief" summary of some of the huge number of improvements in GCC 13. You may also want to check out our <a href="porting_to.html">Porting to GCC 13</a> page and the <a href="../onlinedocs/index.html#current">full GCC documentation</a>. </p> <!-- .................................................................. --> <h2>Caveats</h2> <ul> <li>OpenMP offloading to Intel MIC has been removed.</li> <li>The support for the <code>cr16-elf</code>, <code>tilegx*-linux</code>, <code>tilepro*-linux</code>, <code>hppa[12]*-*-hpux10*</code>, <code>hppa[12]*-*-hpux11*</code> and <code>m32c-rtems</code> configurations has been removed.</li> <li>Support for Solaris 11.3 (<code>*-*-solaris2.11.3</code>) has been declared obsolete. The next release of GCC will have corresponding code permanently <strong>removed</strong>. Details can be found in the <a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc/2022-December/240322.html"> announcement</a>. </li> <li>Support for emitting the STABS debugging format (including the <code>-gstabs</code> and <code>-gxcoff</code> options) has been removed. (This means the <strong>dbx</strong> debugger is no longer supported, either.)</li> <li>Legacy debug info compression option <code>-gz=zlib-gnu</code> was removed and the option is ignored right now.</li> <li><a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/Warning-Options.html#index-Warray-bounds"><code>-Warray-bounds=2</code></a> will no longer issue warnings for out of bounds accesses to trailing struct members of one-element array type anymore. Instead it diagnoses accesses to trailing arrays according to <code>-fstrict-flex-arrays</code>. </li> <li><a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/Static-Analyzer-Options.html"><code>-fanalyzer</code></a> is still only suitable for analyzing C code. In particular, using it on C++ is unlikely to give meaningful output.</li> <li>In the arm port, support for the iWMMXt extensions, enabled through <code>-mcpu=iwmmxt</code>, has been deprecated and will be removed in a future release. This includes support for the <a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/ARM-iWMMXt-Built-in-Functions.html"> iWMMXt built-in functions</a>. </li> </ul> <!-- .................................................................. --> <h2 id="general">General Improvements</h2> <ul> <li id="openmp"><a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/gomp/">OpenMP</a> <ul> <li> Reverse offload is now supported with AMD GCN and nvptx devices. Additionally, the <code>requires</code> handling has been improved and all clauses are now accepted. If a requirement cannot be fulfilled for an accessible device, this device is excluded from the list of available devices. This may imply that the only device left is the host (the initial device). In particular, <code>unified_address</code> and <code>unified_shared_memory</code> are unsupported by all non-host devices. </li> <li> OpenMP 5.0: Fortran now supports some non-rectangular loop nests; for C/C++, the support was added in GCC 11. </li> <li> The following OpenMP 5.1 features have been added: the <code>omp_all_memory</code> reserved locator, the <code>inoutset</code> modifier to the <code>depend</code> clause, the <code>nowait</code> clause for the <code>taskwait</code> directive and the <code>omp_target_is_accessible</code>, <code>omp_target_memcpy_async</code>, <code>omp_target_memcpy_rect_async</code> and <code>omp_get_mapped_ptr</code> API routines. The <code>assume</code> and <code>assumes</code> directives, the <code>begin/end declare target</code> syntax in C/C++ and device-specific ICV settings with environment variables are now supported.</li> <li> Initial support for OpenMP 5.2 features has been added: <code>firstprivate</code> and <code>allocate</code> clauses on the <code>scope</code> construct; the OpenMP 5.2 syntax of the <code>linear</code> clause; new enum/constants <code>omp_initial_device</code> and <code>omp_invalid_device</code>; and optionally omitting the map-type in <code>target enter/exit data</code>. The <code>enter</code> clause (as alias for <code>to</code>) has been added to the <code>declare target</code> directive. Also added have been the <code>omp_in_explicit_task</code> routine and the <code>doacross</code> clause as alias for <code>depend</code> with <code>source</code>/<code>sink</code> modifier. </li> <li> The <code>_ALL</code> suffix to the device-scope environment variables added in Technical Report (TR11) is already handled. </li> <li> For user defined allocators requesting high bandwidth or large capacity memspaces or interleaved partitioning, the <a href="http://memkind.github.io/memkind/">memkind</a> library is used, if available at run time. </li> </ul> </li> <li> AddressSanitizer defaults to <code>detect_stack_use_after_return=1</code> on GNU/Linux targets. For compatibility, it can be disabled with <code>env ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_stack_use_after_return=0</code>. </li> <li>New debug info compression option value <code>-gz=zstd</code> has been added.</li> <li> Link-time optimization improvements: <ul> <li>LTO supports the newly added jobserver of GNU make jobserver that uses named pipes (<code>--jobserver-style=fifo</code>) by default.</li> <li>If make's jobserver is active, parallel LTO WPA streaming communicates with it and thus avoids system overcommitting.</li> </ul> </li> <li><code>-Ofast</code>, <code>-ffast-math</code> and <code>-funsafe-math-optimizations</code> will no longer add startup code to alter the floating-point environment when producing a shared object with <code>-shared</code>. </li> <li> GCC can now emit its diagnostics using <a href="https://sarifweb.azurewebsites.net/">SARIF</a>. This is a JSON-based format suited for capturing the results of static analysis tools (like GCC's <a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/Static-Analyzer-Options.html"><code>-fanalyzer</code></a>), but it can also be used to capture other GCC warnings and errors in a machine-readable format. Specifically, the <a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/Diagnostic-Message-Formatting-Options.html#index-fdiagnostics-format"><code>-fdiagnostics-format=</code></a> option has been extended to support these new values: <ul> <li><code>-fdiagnostics-format=sarif-stderr</code></li> <li><code>-fdiagnostics-format=sarif-file</code></li> <li><code>-fdiagnostics-format=json-stderr</code>, a synonym for the existing <code>-fdiagnostics-format=json</code></li> <li><code>-fdiagnostics-format=json-file</code></li> </ul> where the <code>json</code>-prefixed variants refer to GCC's own JSON diagnostic format. </li> </ul> <!-- .................................................................. --> <h2 id="languages">New Languages and Language specific improvements</h2> <h3 id="ada">Ada</h3> <ul> <li>Traceback support added in RTEMS for the PPC ELF and ARM architectures.</li> <li>Support for versions older than VxWorks 7 has been removed.</li> <li>General improvements to the contracts in the standard libraries.</li> <li>Addition of <code>GNAT.Binary_Search</code>.</li> <li>Further additions and fixes for the Ada 2022 specification.</li> <li>The Pragma <code>SPARK_Mode=>Auto</code> is now accepted.

It is enabled by default in strict standard modes like <code>-std=c++17</code>, where it defaults to <code>-fexcess-precision=standard</code>, while in GNU standard modes like <code>-std=gnu++20</code> it defaults to <code>-fexcess-precision=fast</code>. The option mainly affects IA-32/x86-64 using x87 math and in some cases on Motorola 68000, where <code>float</code> and <code>double</code> expressions are evaluated in <code>long double</code> precision and S/390, System z, IBM z Systems where <code>float</code> expressions are evaluated in <code>double</code> precision. Also, on several architectures where <code>std::float16_t</code> or <code>std::bfloat16_t</code> types are supported those are evaluated in <code>float</code> precision. <code>-fexcess-precision=fast</code> restores previous behavior. </li> <li>Several C++23 features have been implemented: <ul> <li><a href="https://wg21.link/p2324">P2324R1</a>, Labels at the end of

The switch makes GCC consider using 512 bit vectors when auto-vectorizing. </li> </ul> <h3 id="loongarch">LoongArch</h3> <ul> <li>New features <ul> <li>The new command-line option <code>-mexplicit-relocs</code> decides whether to use the assembler relocation operator when dealing with symbolic addresses.
