2.108 Pragma Machine_Attribute

Syntax:

pragma Machine_Attribute (
     [Entity         =>] LOCAL_NAME,
     [Attribute_Name =>] static_string_EXPRESSION
  [, [Info           =>] static_EXPRESSION] );

Machine-dependent attributes can be specified for types and/or declarations. This pragma is semantically equivalent to __attribute__((`attribute_name')) (if info is not specified) or __attribute__((`attribute_name(info'))) in GNU C, where `attribute_name' is recognized by the compiler middle-end or the TARGET_ATTRIBUTE_TABLE machine specific macro. A string literal for the optional parameter info is transformed into an identifier, which may make this pragma unusable for some attributes. For further information see GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) Internals.
