This macro specifies that the target system uses the LP64 data model; specifically, that integers are 32 bits, while longs and pointers are 64 bits.
This macro indicates that the benchmark is being compiled on an AMD64-compatible system running the Linux operating system.
This option is used to indicate that the host system's integers are 32-bits wide, and longs and pointers are 64-bits wide. Not all benchmarks recognize this macro, but the preferred practice for data model selection applies the flags to all benchmarks; this flag description is a placeholder for those benchmarks that do not recognize this macro.

This macro indicates that the benchmark is being compiled on an AMD64-compatible system running the Linux operating system.
This macro determines which file system interface will be used. Common file i/o calls like stat() and readdir() return off_t data that may or may not fit within a 32bit data structure if this flag is not used. With _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64, types like off_t have a size of 64 bits. The truncation that happens without _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 has been observed to yield intermittent failures.
Ex: RHEL7 distributions format partitions using xfs. Runtime errors are observed on such systems because sometimes returned values will not fit into 32bit data types that are a mismatch for xfs.

Sets the language dialect to conform to the indicated C standard.
Compiles for a 64-bit (LP64) data model.
Enable SmartHeap and/or other library usage by forcing the linker to ignore multiple definitions if present
Code is optimized for Intel(R) processors with support for AVX2 instructions. The resulting code may contain unconditional use of features that are not supported on other processors. This option also enables new optimizations in addition to Intel processor-specific optimizations including advanced data layout and code restructuring optimizations to improve memory accesses for Intel processors.
Do not use this option if you are executing a program on a processor that is not an Intel processor. If you use this option on a non-compatible processor to compile the main program (in Fortran) or the function main() in C/C++, the program will display a fatal run-time error if they are executed on unsupported processors.
Enable O2 optimizations plus more aggressive optimizations, such as prefetching, scalar replacement, and loop and memory access transformations. Enable optimizations for maximum speed, such as:
On IA-32 and Intel EM64T processors, when O3 is used with options -ax or -x (Linux) or with options /Qax or /Qx (Windows), the compiler performs more aggressive data dependency analysis than for O2, which may result in longer compilation times. The O3 optimizations may not cause higher performance unless loop and memory access transformations take place. The optimizations may slow down code in some cases compared to O2 optimizations. The O3 option is recommended for applications that have loops that heavily use floating-point calculations and process large data sets.
Enable fast math mode. This option may yield faster code for programs that do not require the guarantees of exact implementation of IEEE or ISO rules/specifications for math functions.
Performs link time optimizations, which is also known as Interprocedural Optimizations.
Generate floating-point arithmetic for selected unit unit. Here use scalar floating-point instructions present in the SSE instruction set
Tells the compiler the maximum number of times to unroll loops. For example -funroll-loops0 would disable unrolling of loops.
Controls the level of memory layout transformations performed by the compiler. This option can improve cache reuse and cache locality.

Controls the level of memory layout transformations performed by the compiler. This option can improve cache reuse and cache locality.
Option standard-realloc-lhs (the default), tells the compiler that when the left-hand side of an assignment is an allocatable object, it should be reallocated to the shape of the right-hand side of the assignment before the assignment occurs. This is the current Fortran Standard definition. This feature may cause extra overhead at run time. This option has the same effect as option assume realloc_lhs.
If you specify nostandard-realloc-lhs, the compiler uses the old Fortran 2003 rules when interpreting assignment statements. The left-hand side is assumed to be allocated with the correct shape to hold the right-hand side. If it is not, incorrect behavior will occur. This option has the same effect as option assume norealloc_lhs.
The align toggle changes how data elements are aligned. Variables and arrays are analyzed and memory layout can be altered. Specifying array32byte will look for opportunities to transform and reailgn arrays to 32byte boundaries.

This section contains descriptions of flags that were included implicitly by other flags, but which do not have a permanent home at SPEC.
Enable optimizations for speed. This is the generally recommended
optimization level. This option also enables:
- Inlining of intrinsics
- Intra-file interprocedural optimizations, which include:
- inlining
- constant propagation
- forward substitution
- routine attribute propagation
- variable address-taken analysis
- dead static function elimination
- removal of unreferenced variables
- The following capabilities for performance gain:
- constant propagation
- copy propagation
- dead-code elimination
- global register allocation
- global instruction scheduling and control speculation
- loop unrolling
- optimized code selection
- partial redundancy elimination
- strength reduction/induction variable simplification
- variable renaming
- exception handling optimizations
- tail recursions
- peephole optimizations
- structure assignment lowering and optimizations
- dead store elimination
Enable optimizations for speed and disables some optimizations that increase code size and affect speed.
To limit code size, this option:
The O1 option may improve performance for applications with very large code size, many branches, and execution time not dominated by code within loops.
-O1 sets the following options:Tells the compiler the maximum number of times to unroll loops. For example -funroll-loops0 would disable unrolling of loops.
-fno-builtin disables inline expansion for all intrinsic functions.
This option trades off floating-point precision for speed by removing the restriction to conform to the IEEE standard.
EBP is used as a general-purpose register in optimizations.
Places each function in its own COMDAT section.
Flushes denormal results to zero.
Enable O2 optimizations plus more aggressive optimizations, such as prefetching, scalar replacement, and loop and memory access transformations. Enable optimizations for maximum speed, such as:
On IA-32 and Intel EM64T processors, when O3 is used with options -ax or -x (Linux) or with options /Qax or /Qx (Windows), the compiler performs more aggressive data dependency analysis than for O2, which may result in longer compilation times. The O3 optimizations may not cause higher performance unless loop and memory access transformations take place. The optimizations may slow down code in some cases compared to O2 optimizations. The O3 option is recommended for applications that have loops that heavily use floating-point calculations and process large data sets.
Governors are power schemes for the CPU. It is in-kernel pre-configured power schemes for the CPU and allows you to change the clock speed of the CPUs on the fly. On Linux systems can set the govenor for all CPUs through the cpupower utility with the following command:
Below are govenors in the Linux kernel.
A commandline interface for switching between different tuning profiles available in supported Linux distributions. The distribution provided profiles are located in /usr/lib/tuned and the user defined profiles in /etc/tuned. To set a profile, one can issue the command "tuned-adm profile (profile_name)". Below are details about some relevant profiles.
Enabled for Windows and Linux (OS optimized for Hyper-Threading Technology) and Disabled for other OS (OS not optimized for Hyper-Threading Technology). When Disabled only one thread per enabled core is enabled.
When enabled, a VMM can utilize the additional hardware capabilities provided by Vanderpool Technology.
The LLC prefetcher is an additional prefetch mechanism on top of the existing prefetchers that prefetch data into the core Data Cache Unit (DCU) and Mid-Level Cache (MLC). Enabling LLC prefetch gives the core prefetcher the ability to prefetch data directly into the LLC without necessarily filling into the MLC.
Switch processor power management features. If value "Custom" is set, Customer can define the values of all power management setup items.
Allows the OS or BIOS to control the Energy Performance Bias.
This BIOS option allows for processor performance and power optmization. Available optoins are:
Controls the BIOS to report the CPU C6 State (ACPI C3) to the operating system. During the CPU C6 State, the power to all cache is turned off. Available options are:
Power saving feature where, when enabled, idle processor cores will halt.
The Hardware P-State setting allows the user to select between OS and hardware-controlled P-states. Selecting Native Mode allows the OS to choose a P-state. Selecting Out of Band Mode allows the hardware to autonomously choose a P-state without OS guidance. Selecting Native Mode with No Legacy Support functions as Native Mode with no support for older hardware.
Sub-NUMA Clusters (SNC) is a feature that provides similar localization benefits as Cluster-On-Die (COD), without some of COD's downsides. SNC breaks up the LLC into disjoint clusters based on address range, with each cluster bound to a subset of the memory controllers in the system. SNC improves average latency to the LLC.
This feature allows an LLC read request to be speculatively duplicated and sent concurrently to the appropriate MC (Memory Controller). These speculative MC reads are sent when an LLC miss is likely based on recent LLC history. If an LLC miss does occur, the MC read is already in flight so the requested data will be returned more quickly.
When this feature is set to Enable, the KTI prefetcher will preload the L1 cache with data deemed relevant to allow the memory read to start earlier on a DDR bus in an effort to reduce latency. Available options are "Auto", "Disable" and "Enable".
This feature allows the user to set the threshold for the Interrupt Request (IRQ) signal, which handles hardware interruptions. There are 5 options: "Disable", "Auto", "Low", "Medium", and "High". This BIOS option changes the threshold number of requests in remote/local-to-remote request queues to cause the throttling.
The in-memory directory has three states: I, A, and S. I (invalid) state means the data is clean and does not exist in any other socket's cache. The A (snoopAll) state means the data may exist in another socket in exclusive or modified state. S (Shared) state means the data is clean and may be shared across one or more socket's caches. When doing a read to memory, if the directory line is in the A state we must snoop all the other sockets because another socket may have the line in modified state. If this is the case, the snoop will return the modified data. However, it may be the case that a line is read in A state and all the snoops come back a miss. This can happen if another socket read the line earlier and then silently dropped it from its cache without modifying it. Available options are:
In the Skylake-SP non-inclusive cache scheme, MLC evictions are filled into the LLC. When lines are evicted from the MLC, the core can flag them as "dead" (i.e., not likely to be read again). The LLC has the option to drop dead lines and not fill them in the LLC. If the LLC Dead Line Alloc feature is disabled, dead lines will always be dropped and will never fill into the LLC. This can help save space in the LLC and prevent the LLC from evicting useful data. However, if the LLC Dead Line Alloc feature is enabled, the LLC can opportunistically fill dead lines into the LLC if there is free space available. Available options are "Auto", "Enable" and "Disable".
Set to POR enforce Plan Of Record restrictions for DDR4 frequency and voltage programming. Memory speeds will be capped at Intel guidelines. Disabling allows user selection of additional supported memory speeds. Available options are "POR" and "Disable".
Set the maximum memory frequency for onboard memory modules. Available options are "Auto", "2133", "2200", "2400", "2600", "2666", "2800", "2933", "3000", "3200".
Adaptive Double Device Data Correction (ADDDC) Sparing detects the predetermined threshold for correctable errors, copying the contents of the failing DIMM to spare memory. The failing DIMM or memory rank will then be disabled. Available options are:
Enable or disable the ability to proactively search the system memory, repairing correctable errors.
This L1-cache prefether looks for sequential load history and attempts on this basis to determine the next data to be expected and, if necessary, to prefetch this data from the L2 cache or the main memory into the L1 cache.
This prefetcher is a L1 data cache prefetcher, which detects multiple loads from the same cache line done within a time limit, in order to then prefetch the next line from the L2 cache or the main memory into the L1 cache based on the assumption that the next cache line will also be needed.
