.I info
Print the architecture the AOT in this copy of Mono targets and quit.
.TP
+.I interp
+Generates all required wrappers, so that it is possible to run --interpreter without
+any code generation at runtime. This option only makes sense with \fBmscorlib.dll\fR.
+Embedders can set

+.nf
+mono_jit_set_aot_mode (MONO_AOT_MODE_INTERP);
+.fi
+.ne
+.TP
.I ld-flags
Additional flags to pass to the C linker (if the current AOT mode calls for invoking it).

.TP
+\fB--aot-path=PATH\fR
+List of additional directories to search for AOT images.
+.TP
+\fB--apply-bindings=FILE\fR
+Apply the assembly bindings from the specified configuration file when running
+the AOT compiler. This is useful when compiling an auxiliary assembly that is
+referenced by a main assembly that provides a configuration file. For example,
+if app.exe uses lib.dll then in order to make the assembly bindings from
+app.exe.config available when compiling lib.dll ahead of time, use:
+.nf
+ mono --apply-bindings=app.exe.config --aot lib.dll
+.fi
+.TP
+\fB--assembly-loader=MODE\fR
+If mode is \fBstrict\fR, Mono will check that the public key token, culture and version
+of a candidate assembly matches the requested strong name. If mode is \fBlegacy\fR, as
+long as the name matches, the candidate will be allowed. \fBstrict\fR is the behavior
+consistent with .NET Framework but may break some existing mono-based applications.
+The default is \fBlegacy\fR.
+.TP
\fB--attach=[options]\fR
Currently the only option supported by this command line argument is
\fBdisable\fR which disables the attach functionality.
specified in the MONO_CONFIG environment variable, if set. See the
mono-config(5) man page for details on the format of this file.
.TP
-\fB--aot-path=PATH\fR
-List of additional directories to search for AOT images.
-.TP
\fB--debugger-agent=[options]\fR
This instructs the Mono runtime to
start a debugging agent inside the Mono runtime and connect it to a
compile 10 methods with LLVM and then switch to the Mono JIT engine.
\fBLLVM_COUNT=0\fR would disable the LLVM engine altogether.
.TP
-\fBMONO_AOT_CACHE\fR
-If set, this variable will instruct Mono to ahead-of-time compile new
-assemblies on demand and store the result into a cache in
-~/.mono/aot-cache.
-.TP
\fBMONO_ASPNET_INHIBIT_SETTINGSMAP\fR
Mono contains a feature which allows modifying settings in the .config files shipped
with Mono by using config section mappers. The mappers and the mapping rules are
program but will obviously use more memory. The default nursery size
4 MB.
.TP
-\fBmajor=\fIcollector\fR Specifies which major collector to use.
-Options are `marksweep' for the Mark&Sweep collector, and
-`marksweep-conc' for concurrent Mark&Sweep. The non-concurrent
-Mark&Sweep collector is the default.
+\fBmajor=\fIcollector\fR
+Specifies which major collector to use.
+Options are `marksweep' for the Mark&Sweep collector, `marksweep-conc'
+for concurrent Mark&Sweep and `marksweep-conc-par' for parallel and
+concurrent Mark&Sweep. The concurrent Mark&Sweep collector is the default.
+.TP
+\fBmode=balanced|throughput|pause\fR[:\fImax-pause\fR]
+Specifies what should be the garbage collector's target. The `throughput'
+mode aims to reduce time spent in the garbage collector and improve
+application speed, the `pause' mode aims to keep pause times to a minimum
+and it receives the argument \fImax-pause\fR which specifies the maximum
+pause time in milliseconds that is acceptable and the `balanced' mode
+which is a general purpose optimal mode.
.TP
\fBsoft-heap-limit=\fIsize\fR
Once the heap size gets larger than this size, ignore what the default
This option is EXPERIMENTAL, so it might disappear in later versions of mono.
.TP
\fBminor=\fIminor-collector\fR
-Specifies which minor collector to use. Options are 'simple' which
-promotes all objects from the nursery directly to the old generation
-and 'split' which lets object stay longer on the nursery before promoting.
+Specifies which minor collector to use. Options are `simple' which
+promotes all objects from the nursery directly to the old generation,
+`simple-par' which has same promotion behavior as `simple' but using
+multiple workers and `split' which lets objects stay longer on the nursery
+before promoting.
.TP
\fBalloc-ratio=\fIratio\fR
Specifies the ratio of memory from the nursery to be use by the alloc space.
