<h1>GCC 13 Release Series<br>Changes, New Features, and Fixes</h1>
<p>
This page is a "brief" summary of some of the huge number of improvements
in GCC 13.
You may also want to check out our
<a href="porting_to.html">Porting to GCC 13</a> page and the
<a href="../onlinedocs/index.html#current">full GCC documentation</a>.
</p>
<!-- .................................................................. -->
<h2>Caveats</h2>
<ul>
<li>OpenMP offloading to Intel MIC has been removed.</li>
<li>The support for the <code>cr16-elf</code>, <code>tilegx*-linux</code>, <code>tilepro*-linux</code>,
<code>hppa[12]*-*-hpux10*</code>, <code>hppa[12]*-*-hpux11*</code>
and <code>m32c-rtems</code> configurations has been removed.</li>
<li>Support for Solaris 11.3 (<code>*-*-solaris2.11.3</code>) has been
declared obsolete. The next release of GCC will have corresponding
code permanently <strong>removed</strong>. Details can be found in
the
<a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc/2022-December/240322.html">
announcement</a>.
</li>
<li>Support for emitting the STABS debugging format (including the
<code>-gstabs</code> and <code>-gxcoff</code> options) has been removed.
(This means the <strong>dbx</strong> debugger is no longer
supported, either.)</li>
<li>Legacy debug info compression option <code>-gz=zlib-gnu</code> was removed
and the option is ignored right now.</li>
<li><a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/Warning-Options.html#index-Warray-bounds"><code>-Warray-bounds=2</code></a>
will no longer issue warnings for out of
bounds accesses to trailing struct members of one-element array type
anymore. Instead it diagnoses accesses to trailing arrays according to
<a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/C-Dialect-Options.html#index-fstrict-flex-arrays"><code>-fstrict-flex-arrays</code></a>. </li>
<li><a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/Static-Analyzer-Options.html"><code>-fanalyzer</code></a>
is still only suitable for analyzing C code.
In particular, using it on C++ is unlikely to give meaningful output.</li>
<li>In the arm port, support for the iWMMXt extensions, enabled through
<code>-mcpu=iwmmxt</code>, has been deprecated and will be removed in a
future release. This includes support for the
<a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/ARM-iWMMXt-Built-in-Functions.html">
iWMMXt built-in functions</a>.
</li>
<li>For C++, construction of the global iostream objects
<code>std::cout</code>, <code>std::cin</code>, etc. is now done
inside the standard library, instead of in every source file that
includes the <code><iostream></code> header. This change
improves the start-up performance of C++ programs, but it means that
code compiled with GCC 13.1 will crash if the correct version of
<code>libstdc++.so</code> is not used at run time. See the
<a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/using_dynamic_or_shared.html#manual.intro.using.linkage.dynamic">documentation</a>
about using the right <code>libstdc++.so</code> at run time.
Future GCC releases will mitigate the problem so that the program
cannot be run at all with an older <code>libstdc++.so</code>.
</li>
</ul>
<!-- .................................................................. -->
<h2 id="general"><a href="#general">General Improvements</a></h2>
<ul>
<li id="openmp"><a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/gomp/">OpenMP</a>
<ul>
<li>
Reverse offload is now supported with AMD GCN and nvptx devices.
Additionally, the <code>requires</code> handling has been improved and
all clauses are now accepted. If a requirement cannot be fulfilled for
an accessible device, this device is excluded from the list of
available devices. This may imply that the only device left is the host
(the initial device).
In particular, <code>unified_address</code> and
<code>unified_shared_memory</code> are unsupported by all non-host
devices.
</li>
<li>
OpenMP 5.0: Fortran now supports some non-rectangular loop nests; for
C/C++, the support was added in GCC 11.
</li>
<li>
The following OpenMP 5.1 features have been added: the
<code>omp_all_memory</code> reserved locator, the <code>inoutset</code>
modifier to the <code>depend</code> clause, the <code>nowait</code>
clause for the <code>taskwait</code> directive and the
<code>omp_target_is_accessible</code>, <code>omp_target_memcpy_async</code>,
<code>omp_target_memcpy_rect_async</code> and
<code>omp_get_mapped_ptr</code> API routines. The <code>assume</code> and
<code>assumes</code> directives, the <code>begin/end declare target</code>
syntax in C/C++ and device-specific ICV settings with environment variables
are now supported.</li>
<li>
Initial support for OpenMP 5.2 features has been added:
<code>firstprivate</code> and <code>allocate</code> clauses on the
<code>scope</code> construct; the OpenMP 5.2 syntax of the
<code>linear</code> clause; new enum/constants
<code>omp_initial_device</code> and <code>omp_invalid_device</code>; and
optionally omitting the map-type in <code>target enter/exit data</code>.
The <code>enter</code> clause (as alias for <code>to</code>) has been added
to the <code>declare target</code> directive. Also added have been the
<code>omp_in_explicit_task</code> routine and the <code>doacross</code>
clause as alias for <code>depend</code> with
<code>source</code>/<code>sink</code> modifier.
</li>
<li>
The <code>_ALL</code> suffix to the device-scope environment variables
added in Technical Report (TR11) is already handled.
</li>
<li>
For user defined allocators requesting high bandwidth or large capacity
memspaces or interleaved partitioning, the <a
href="http://memkind.github.io/memkind/">memkind</a> library is used,
if available at run time.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
AddressSanitizer defaults to <code>detect_stack_use_after_return=1</code> on GNU/Linux targets.
For compatibility, it can be disabled with <code>env ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_stack_use_after_return=0</code>.
</li>
<li>New debug info compression option value <code>-gz=zstd</code> has been added.</li>
<li>
Link-time optimization improvements:
<ul>
<li>LTO supports the newly added jobserver of GNU make jobserver that uses named pipes (<code>--jobserver-style=fifo</code>)
by default.</li>
<li>If make's jobserver is active, parallel LTO WPA streaming communicates with it and thus avoids
system overcommitting.</li>

GCC can now emit its diagnostics using <a href="https://sarifweb.azurewebsites.net/">SARIF</a>.
This is a JSON-based format suited for capturing the results of static
analysis tools (like GCC's <a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/Static-Analyzer-Options.html"><code>-fanalyzer</code></a>),
but it can also be used to capture other GCC warnings and errors in a
machine-readable format.
Specifically, the <a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/Diagnostic-Message-Formatting-Options.html#index-fdiagnostics-format"><code>-fdiagnostics-format=</code></a>
option has been extended to support these new values:
<ul>
<li><code>-fdiagnostics-format=sarif-stderr</code></li>
<li><code>-fdiagnostics-format=sarif-file</code></li>
<li><code>-fdiagnostics-format=json-stderr</code>, a synonym for the
existing <code>-fdiagnostics-format=json</code></li>
<li><code>-fdiagnostics-format=json-file</code></li>
</ul>
where the <code>json</code>-prefixed variants refer to GCC's own JSON diagnostic format.
</li>
<li>
Support for profiling and test coverage in freestanding environments has
been added, see also
<a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Freestanding-Environments.html">Profiling and Test Coverage in Freestanding Environments</a>.
</li>
<li>
New options <code>-fharden-compares</code>
and <code>-fharden-conditional-branches</code> to verify compares
and conditional branches, to detect some power-deprivation
hardware attacks, using reversed conditions.

(<a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/PR90885">PR90885</a>)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Three new function attributes for documenting <code>int</code> arguments that are file descriptors:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-13.1.0/gcc/Common-Function-Attributes.html#index-fd_005farg-function-attribute"><code>__attribute__((fd_arg(N)))</code></a></li>

<li>GCC can now control when to treat the trailing array of a structure as a
flexible array member for the purpose of accessing the elements of such
an array. By default, all trailing arrays in aggregates are treated as
flexible array members. Use the new command-line option

<ul>
<li>Excess precision support (which has been available in C since GCC 4.5)
has been implemented for C++ as well. It is enabled by default
in strict standard modes like <code>-std=c++17</code>, where it
defaults to <code>-fexcess-precision=standard</code>, while in GNU
standard modes like <code>-std=gnu++20</code> it defaults to
<code>-fexcess-precision=fast</code>. The option mainly affects
IA-32/x86-64 using x87 math and in some cases on Motorola 68000,
where <code>float</code> and <code>double</code> expressions
are evaluated in <code>long double</code> precision and S/390, System z,
IBM z Systems where <code>float</code> expressions are evaluated in
<code>double</code> precision. Also, on several architectures where
<code>std::float16_t</code> or <code>std::bfloat16_t</code> types
are supported those are evaluated in <code>float</code> precision.
<code>-fexcess-precision=fast</code> restores previous behavior.

<li><code><format></code> header and <code>std::format</code>.</li>
<li><code>std::chrono::utc_clock</code> and other clocks, time zones,
and <code>std::format</code> support in the <code><chrono></code>

</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Improved experimental support for C++23, including:
<ul>
<li>Additions to the <code><ranges></code> header:
<code>views::zip</code>, <code>views::zip_transform</code>,
<code>views::adjacent</code>, <code>views::adjacent_transform</code>
<code>views::pairwise</code>, <code>views::slide</code>,
<code>views::chunk</code>, <code>views::chunk_by</code>,
<code>views::repeat</code>, <code>views::chunk_by</code>,
<code>views::cartesian_product</code>, <code>views::as_rvalue</code>,

<li>Library support for extended floating-point types.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Support for the <code><experimental/scope></code> header
from v3 of the Library Fundamentals Technical Specification.
</li>
<li>Support for the <code><experimental/synchronized_value></code>
header from v2 of the Concurrency Technical Specification.
</li>
<li>Support for many previously unavailable features in freestanding mode,
thanks to Arsen Arsenović. For example, <code>std::tuple</code> is
now available for freestanding compilation. The freestanding subset
contains all the components made freestanding by
<a href="https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2022/p1642r11.html">P1642</a>,
and libstdc++ adds more components
such as <code>std::array</code> and <code>std::string_view</code>.
Additionally, libstdc++ now respects the <code>-ffreestanding</code>
compiler option and so it is not necessary to build a separate
freestanding installation of libstdc++. Compiling with
<code>-ffreestanding</code> restricts the available features to
the freestanding subset, even if libstdc++ was built as a full, hosted
implementation.

<li>The GNU threads library used by the <code>win32</code> thread model has
been reimplemented using direct Win32 API calls, except for the Objective-C
specific subset. It requires Windows XP/Server 2003 or later. The new
implementation also adds the support needed for the C++11 threads, using
again direct Win32 API calls; this additional layer requires Windows
Vista/Server 2008 or later. It is recommended to use a recent version of
MinGW-W64 in conjunction with the <code>win32</code> thread model.
