<ekaitz>hi! anyone knows if x86 or arm have an option stack like RISC-V assembler does?

<ekaitz>i'm talking about `.option norelax`

<ekaitz>and `.option push/pop`

<ekaitz>that kind of stuff

<Googulator>Is that a thing architecturally on RISC-V (i.e. there are opcodes in machine code corresponding to such statements)?

<Googulator>Or just an assembler feature

<Googulator>Some x86 assemblers certainly have `.pragma`

<ekaitz>assembler feature

<ekaitz>it has some push/pop thing i need to understand better

<ekaitz>how does the push/pop system work? does it keep all the options in the stack plus the one I pushed?

<Googulator>I guess it's like pragma on x86 then

<ekaitz>and when I pop it just ignores?

<ekaitz>but pragma doesn't have this kind of push/pop thing, right?

<ekaitz>i'm thinking on the easiest way to implement this

<deesix>So, basically that allows saving and restoring three bool flags, right?

<ekaitz>deesix: yep

<ekaitz>so what should I do?

<ekaitz>make a small array of options, that is a char with some bits set or what?
