New Options

This topic lists the options that provide new functionality in this release.

If no label appears, the option is available on all supported systems.

If "only" appears in the label, the option is only available on the identified system.

For more details on the options, refer to the individual option descriptions.

For information on conventions used in this table, see Notational Conventions.

New compiler options are listed in tables below:

The first table lists new options that are available on Windows* systems.
The second table lists new options that are available on Linux* and OS X* systems. If an option is only available on one of these operating systems, it is labeled.

Windows* OS Options	Description	Default
/fpp-name:name	Lets you specify an alternate preprocessor to use with Fortran.	OFF
/gen-depshow:[no]intr_mod	Determines whether certain features are excluded from dependency analysis. Currently, it only applies to intrinsic modules.	/gen-depshow:intr_mod
/Qopt-prefetch-issue-excl-hint	Supports the prefetchW instruction in Intel® microarchitecture code name Broadwell and later.	OFF
/Qprotect-parens	Determines whether the optimizer honors parentheses when expressions are evaluated.	/Qprotect-parens-

Linux* OS and OS X* Options	Description	Default
-fpp-name=name	Lets you specify an alternate preprocessor to use with Fortran.	OFF
-fprotect-parens	Determines whether the optimizer honors parentheses when expressions are evaluated.	-fno-protect-parens
-fstack-protector-strong	Enables stack overflow security checks for routines with any buffer.	-fno-stack-protector-strong
-gen-depshow=[no]intr_mod	Determines whether certain features are excluded from dependency analysis. Currently, it only applies to intrinsic modules.	-gen-depshow=intr_mod
-gsplit-dwarf (Linux* OS only)	Creates a separate object file containing DWARF debug information.	OFF
-print-sysroot (Linux* OS only)	Prints the target sysroot directory that is used during compilation.	OFF
-qopt-prefetch-issue-excl-hint (Linux* OS only)	Supports the prefetchW instruction in Intel® microarchitecture code name Broadwell and later.	OFF

Optimization Notice
Intel's compilers may or may not optimize to the same degree for non-Intel microprocessors for optimizations that are not unique to Intel microprocessors. These optimizations include SSE2, SSE3, and SSSE3 instruction sets and other optimizations. Intel does not guarantee the availability, functionality, or effectiveness of any optimization on microprocessors not manufactured by Intel. Microprocessor-dependent optimizations in this product are intended for use with Intel microprocessors. Certain optimizations not specific to Intel microarchitecture are reserved for Intel microprocessors. Please refer to the applicable product User and Reference Guides for more information regarding the specific instruction sets covered by this notice. Notice revision #20110804
