Intel® Fortran Compiler 16.0 User and Reference Guide

Gs

Lets you control the threshold at which the stack checking routine is called or not called.

Syntax

Linux and OS X:

None

Windows:

/Gs[n]

Arguments

n

Is the number of bytes that local variables and compiler temporaries can occupy before stack checking is activated. This is called the threshold.

Default

/Gs

Stack checking occurs for routines that require more than 4KB (4096 bytes) of stack space. This is also the default if you do not specify n.

Description

This option lets you control the threshold at which the stack checking routine is called or not called. If a routine's local stack allocation exceeds the threshold (n), the compiler inserts a __chkstk() call into the prologue of the routine.
