This instructs Mono to precompile code that has historically not been
precompiled with AOT.

+.I data-outfile=FILE.dll.aotdata
+.Sp
+This instructs the AOT code generator to output certain data
+constructs into a separate file. This can reduce the executable
+images some five to twenty percent. Developers need to then ship the
+resulting aotdata as a resource and register a hook to load the data
+on demand by using the
+.I mono_install_load_aot_data_hook
+method.

.I direct-pinvoke
.Sp
When this option is specified, P/Invoke methods are invoked directly
.I llvm-path=<PREFIX>
Same for the llvm tools 'opt' and 'llc'.
.TP
+.I gen-seq-points-file=FILE.msym
+Instructs the AOT compiler to generate offline sequence points .msym files.
+The path is optional, if none is passed then a .msym file will be generated
+next to the input assembly.
+.TP
.I mtriple=<TRIPLE>
Use the GNU style target triple <TRIPLE> to determine some code generation options, i.e.
--mtriple=armv7-linux-gnueabi will generate code that targets ARMv7. This is currently
The maintainer options are only used by those developing the runtime
itself, and not typically of interest to runtime users or developers.

+\fB--bisect=optimization:filename\fR
+This flag is used by the automatic optimization bug bisector. It
+takes an optimization flag and a filename of a file containing a list
+of full method names, one per line. When it compiles one of the
+methods in the file it will use the optimization given, in addition to
+the optimizations that are otherwise enabled. Note that if the
+optimization is enabled by default, you should disable it with `-O`,
+otherwise it will just apply to every method, whether it's in the file
+or not.
+.TP
\fB--break method\fR
Inserts a breakpoint before the method whose name is `method'
(namespace.class:methodname). Use `Main' as method name to insert a
If set, the log mask is changed to the set value. Possible values are
"asm" (assembly loader), "type", "dll" (native library loader), "gc"
(garbage collector), "cfg" (config file loader), "aot" (precompiler),
-"security" (e.g. Moonlight CoreCLR support) and "all".
+"security" (e.g. Moonlight CoreCLR support), "threadpool" (thread pool generic),
+"io-threadpool" (thread pool I/O), "io-layer" (I/O layer - sockets, handles, shared memory etc)
+and "all".
The default value is "all". Changing the mask value allows you to display only
messages for a certain component. You can use multiple masks by comma
separating them. For example to see config file messages and assembly loader
this mode can be enabled at compile time by using the --with-cooperative-gc
flag when calling configure.

-\fBMONO_ENABLE_SHM\fR
-Unix only: Enable support for cross-process handles. Cross-process
-handles are used to expose process handles, thread handles, named
-mutexes, named events and named semaphores across Unix processes.
-.TP
\fBMONO_ENV_OPTIONS\fR
This environment variable allows you to pass command line arguments to
a Mono process through the environment. This is useful for example
deployment, see

-\fBMONO_RTC\fR
-Experimental RTC support in the statistical profiler: if the user has
-the permission, more accurate statistics are gathered. The MONO_RTC
-value must be restricted to what the Linux rtc allows: power of two
-from 64 to 8192 Hz. To enable higher frequencies like 4096 Hz, run as root:

This is the directory where the Windows I/O Emulation layer stores its
When this option is set, the runtime will invalidate the domain memory
pool instead of destroying it.

+\fBdisable_omit_fp\fR
+Disables a compiler optimization where the frame pointer is omitted
+from the stack. This optimization can interact badly with debuggers.

\fBdont-free-domains\fR
This is an Optimization for multi-AppDomain applications (most
commonly ASP.NET applications). Due to internal limitations Mono,
