@kindex -warn-multiple-gp
@item -warn-multiple-gp
Warn if multiple global pointer values are required in the output file.
This is only meaningful for certain processors, such as the Alpha.
Specifically, some processors put large-valued constants in a special
section. A special register (the global pointer) points into the middle
of this section, so that constants can be loaded efficiently via a
base-register relative addressing mode. Since the offset in
base-register relative mode is fixed and relatively small (e.g., 16
bits), this limits the maximum size of the constant pool. Thus, in
large programs, it is often necessary to use multiple global pointer
values in order to be able to address all possible constants. This
option causes a warning to be issued whenever this case occurs.
