+# Codegen options
+
+All of these options are passed to `rustc` via the `-C` flag, short for "codegen." You can see
+a version of this list for your exact compiler by running `rustc -C help`.
+
+## ar
+
+This option is deprecated and does nothing.
+
+## linker
+
+This flag lets you control which linker `rustc` invokes to link your code.
+
+## link-arg=val
+
+This flag lets you append a single extra argument to the linker invocation.
+
+"Append" is significant; you can pass this flag multiple times to add multiple arguments.
+
+## link-args
+
+This flag lets you append multiple extra arguments to the linker invocation. The
+options should be separated by spaces.
+
+## link-dead-code
+
+Normally, the linker will remove dead code. This flag disables this behavior.
+
+An example of when this flag might be useful is when trying to construct code coverage
+metrics.
+
+## lto
+
+This flag instructs LLVM to use [link time
+optimizations](https://llvm.org/docs/LinkTimeOptimization.html).
+
+It takes one of two values, `thin` and `fat`. 'thin' LTO [is a new feature of
+LLVM](http://blog.llvm.org/2016/06/thinlto-scalable-and-incremental-lto.html),
+'fat' referring to the classic version of LTO.
+
+## target-cpu
+
+This instructs `rustc` to generate code specifically for a particular processor.
+
+You can run `rustc --print target-cpus` to see the valid options to pass
+here. Additionally, `native` can be passed to use the processor of the host
+machine.
+
+## target-feature
+
+Individual targets will support different features; this flag lets you control
+enabling or disabling a feature.
+
+To see the valid options and an example of use, run `rustc --print
+target-features`.
+
+## passes
+
+This flag can be used to add extra LLVM passes to the compilation.
+
+The list must be separated by spaces.
+
+## llvm-args
+
+This flag can be used to pass a list of arguments directly to LLVM.
+
+The list must be separated by spaces.
+
+## save-temps
+
+`rustc` will generate temporary files during compilation; normally it will
+delete them after it's done with its work. This option will cause them to be
+preserved instead of removed.
+
+## rpath
+
+This option allows you to set the value of
+[`rpath`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rpath).
+
+## overflow-checks
+
+This flag allows you to control the behavior of integer overflow. This flag
+can be passed many options:
+
+* To turn overflow checks on: `y`, `yes`, or `on`.
+* To turn overflow checks off: `n`, `no`, or `off`.
+
+## no-prepopulate-passes
+
+The pass manager comes pre-populated with a list of passes; this flag
+ensures that list is empty.
+
+## no-vectorize-loops
+
+By default, `rustc` will attempt to [vectorize
+loops](https://llvm.org/docs/Vectorizers.html#the-loop-vectorizer). This
+flag will turn that behavior off.
+
+## no-vectorize-slp
+
+By default, `rustc` will attempt to vectorize loops using [superword-level
+parallelism](https://llvm.org/docs/Vectorizers.html#the-slp-vectorizer). This
+flag will turn that behavior off.
+
+## soft-float
+
+This option will make `rustc` generate code using "soft floats." By default,
+a lot of hardware supports floating point instructions, and so the code generated
+will take advantage of this. "soft floats" emulate floating point instructions
+in software.
+
+## prefer-dynamic
+
+By default, `rustc` prefers to statically link dependencies. This option will
+make it use dynamic linking instead.
+
+## no-integrated-as
+
+LLVM comes with an internal assembler; this option will let you use an
+external assembler instead.
+
+## no-redzone
+
+This flag allows you to disable [the
+red zone](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_zone_\(computing\)). This flag can
+be passed many options:
+
+* To enable the red zone: `y`, `yes`, or `on`.
+* To disable it: `n`, `no`, or `off`.
+
+## relocation-model
+
+This option lets you choose which relocation model to use.
+
+To find the valid options for this flag, run `rustc --print relocation-models`.
+
+## code-model=val
+
+This option lets you choose which code model to use.
+
+To find the valid options for this flag, run `rustc --print code-models`.
+
+## metadata
+
+This option allows you to control the metadata used for symbol mangling.
+
+## extra-filename
+
+This option allows you to put extra data in each output filename.
+
+## codegen-units
+
+This flag lets you control how many threads are used when doing
+code generation.
+
+Increasing paralellism may speed up compile times, but may also
+produce slower code.
+
+## remark
+
+This flag lets you print remarks for these optimization passes.
+
+The list of passes should be separated by spaces.
+
+`all` will remark on every pass.
+
+## no-stack-check
+
+This option is deprecated and does nothing.
+
+## debuginfo
+
+This flag lets you control debug information:
+
+* `0`: no debug info at all
+* `1`: line tables only
+* `2`: full debug info
+
+## opt-level
+
+This flag lets you control the optimization level.
+
+* `0`: no optimizations
+* `1`: basic optimizations
+* `2`: some optimizations
+* `3`: all optimizations
+* `s`: optimize for binary size
+* `z`: optimize for binary size, but also turn off loop vectorization.
+
+## debug-assertions
+
+This flag lets you turn `cfg(debug_assertions)` on or off.
+
+## inline-threshold
+
+This option lets you set the threshold for inlining a function.
+
+The default is 225.
+
+## panic
+
+This option lets you control what happens when the code panics.
+
+* `abort`: terminate the process upon panic
+* `unwind`: unwind the stack upon panic
+
+## incremental
+
+This flag allows you to enable incremental compilation.

+# Command-line arguments
+
+Here's a list of command-line arguments to `rustc` and what they do.

+
+## `--cfg`: configure the compilation environment
+
+This flag can turn on or off various `#[cfg]` settings.

+## `-L`: add a directory to the library search path
+
+When looking for external crates, a directory passed to this flag will be searched.
+
+## `-l`: link the generated crate to a native library
+
+This flag allows you to specify linking to a specific native library when building

+
+The outputted crate will be written to this directory.

+
+Each error of `rustc`'s comes with an error code; this will print
+out a longer explanation of a given error.
+
+## `--test`: build a test harness

+
+This flag will set which lints should be set to the [forbid level](lints/levels.html#forbid).
+
+## `--cap-lints`: set the most restrictive lint level
+
+This flag lets you 'cap' lints, for more, [see here](lints/levels.html#capping-lints).
+
+## `-C`/`--codegen`: code generation options
+
+This flag will allow you to set [codegen options](codegen-options/index.html).

+
+This flag allows you to pass the name and location of an external crate that will
+be linked into the crate you're buildling.
+
+## `--sysroot`: Override the system root
+
+The "sysroot" is where `rustc` looks for the crates that come with the Rust
+distribution; this flag allows that to be overridden.
+
+## `--error-format`: control how errors are produced
+
+This flag lets you control the format of errors.
+
+## `--color`: configure coloring of output
+
+This flag lets you control color settings of the output.
