-qminimaltoc

In IBM® XL C/C++ for AIX® 16.1.0 or earlier releases, the -qminimaltoc option ensures that the compiler creates only one TOC entry for each compilation unit. Specifying this option can minimize the use of available TOC entries. In addition, the compiler used -qpic=large to support larger TOCs on AIX.

The method of using -qminimaltoc to reduce the number of TOC entries on AIX is no longer supported in IBM Open XL C/C++ for AIX 17.1.4. To let programs support large TOCs, specify the -mcmodel=large and -Wl,-bbigtoc options in IBM Open XL C/C++ for AIX 17.1.4.
