    %% Functionality Overview
% Describes the support package functionality & use-cases.
%
% This support package enables Arm Compiler 5 and 6 to be used as
% toolchains for running various tests on Arm targets, hardware or virtual.
% Select the desired Arm target, choose an Arm Compiler as the project
% toolchain, select / configure the build configuration, and start working.
% This integration with Arm Compiler unlocks quite a bit of value:
% 
%% Arm Compiler 6 - The Flagship Compiler for Arm Hardware
% * Arm Compiler 6, or AC6, is the latest and most efficient version of 
%           Arm's industry-reference C/C** compilation tools. Arm Compiler
%           5 is also supported by this package for legacy reasons only,
%           and it is highly recommended that all projects be migrated to or
%           start on Arm Compiler 6.
% 
%% Superior Code Size
% * This package is tuned to unlock the full potential of Arm Compiler 6,
%           including its outstanding code size reduction. To generate
%           smaller code, the default optimization flag '-O' is '-O3'. For 
%           even smaller code, try the '-Oz' switch.
%
%% Superior Code Performance
% * Arm Compiler 6 has finely tuned libraries and instruction set
%           scheduling to achieve faster execution times. For more details
%           on the performance gains seen in different applications, see the 
%           <https://developer.arm.com/products/software-development-tools/compilers/arm-compiler
%           Arm Compiler website>. For the best performance, try the
%           '-Omax' switch.
%
%% Safety Certification
% * Arm Compiler 6 has a proven track record in safety applications over
%           many years in safety-critical systems. Arm Compiler 6 is 
%           certified by safety experts TUV SUD in the automotive, industrial,
%           railway, and medical industries. For more specifics on how to
%           use Arm Compiler 6 in a safety certified flow, see the
%           information on <https://developer.arm.com/products/software-development-tools/compilers/arm-compiler/safety 
%           our site> or reach out to Channel-sales@arm.com
