Compile with GCC -ffast-math

Enables the GCC compiler -ffast-math option when compiling real-time application code

Since R2020b

Model Configuration Pane: Code Generation / Simulink Real-Time Options

Description

Enables the GCC compiler -ffast-math option when compiling real-time application code. This option is disabled by default for Simulink® Real-Time™ models.

By enabling the Compile with GCC -ffast-math option, you provide the compiler with more flexibility to optimize floating-point math at the expense of deviating from the IEEE-754 floating-point standard.

For more information about the -ffast-math option, see the Semantics of Floating-Point Math in GCC.
