White Paper Migrating Applications to Intel® Compilers for Mac OS* Introduction This document provides the background for developers who are migrating to the Intel® C++ Compiler 9.1 for Mac OS*. It discusses default behavior, and it highlights optimization and source changes that may be needed as part of the migration. Overview • Interprocedural optimization (IPO) The Intel® C++ Compiler 9.1 for Mac OS* integrates with Apple’s • Profile-guided optimization (PGO) Xcode* ..1 and is compatible with GNU C/C++ .0 to provide very high levels of optimization for Intel® processor technologies. • High-level language optimization (HLO) In addition to performance and industry-compatibility gains, this • Support for OpenMP* .5 version provides full support for processor-specific instruction sets available on Mac OS running on Intel® processors. Intel® • Auto-parallelization software technologies such as code generation, optimization, • Compiler-generated optimization reports and parallel processing, combined with compatibility features and support for language extensions, offer a robust feature set and Support for Apple Specific Features excellent runtime performance. • Support for GNU inline ASM syntax In general, the source changes required to migrate to Intel C++ Compiler for Mac OS are the same as those for GNU C++ .0. In • Support for Microsoft MASM-style inline assembly format most cases, if you can build existing applications with GCC .0 in (-use-msasm) Xcode ..1, you can rebuild the applications with the Intel C++ • Support of Pascal strings (-fpascal-strings) Compiler for Mac OS without source changes. Some applications may need minor coding changes, and build methods may need • Support for the weak_import attribute minor adjustments. • Support for Apple legacy alignment options This document assumes that your project is imported to Xcode (-malign-power, -malign-natural, -malign-mac68k) ..1 or built from the command line. You may want to look at • Support for Apple frameworks and Apple’s C++ the following documents from the Apple developer site for language extensions more information: • Interoperable with objective C, where GCC will compile • Porting CodeWarrior* Project to Xcode 1 object C source • GCC Porting Guide • Universal binary support Getting Started Support for Apple-specific Linker Options • Produce a Mach-O bundle format file with (-bundle) Supported Features The Intel C++ Compiler for Mac OS runs on Intel processor-based • Produce Mach-O demand page executable format Mac systems running Mac OS X* version 10... Key features file (-execute) supported by the Intel C++ Compiler for Mac OS include those • Specify file containing list of files to link (-filelist) discussed below. • Build output as flat namespace image; not default Performance Features (-flat_namespace) • Auto-vectorization

Care must be taken to ensure that the two sets of tools do not interact with each other. Both the proper configuration sequences and the potential pitfalls are described here. This application note assumes the use of CodeWarrior for StarCore DSPs v10.2.10 or later, and CodeWarrior for Power Architecture® v10.1.2 or later. © 2012 Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. 1 BSC9131 overview The Freescale QorIQ Qonverge BSC9131 contains two processor cores, each of whose microarchitecture is optimized for a specific purpose: StarCore SC3850 DSP core implements high-throughput signal processing functions Power Architecture e500 core implements high-volume network functions These cores manage a number of powerful peripherals, all of which are interconnected through a low- latency switching fabric (Figure 1). However, for debugging setup purposes, only the cores are considered in this application note.
