    Hum.

    -marm seems to work thank's
    but I still have some interrogation

    I have tried this command

    gcc -S -marm add.c

    an the code produced is


    .arch armv7-a
    ...
    .file "add.c"
    .text
    .align 2
    .global add
    .type add, %function
    add:
    @ args = 0, pretend = 0, frame = 8
    @ frame_needed = 1, uses_anonymous_args = 0
    @ link register save eliminated.
    ...
    bx lr
    .size add, .-add
    .ident "GCC: (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.4.4-14ubuntu5) 4.4.5"
    .section .note.GNU-stack,"",%progbits

    My problem is about the
    bx lr instruction.

    Bx intruction Does it not supposed to swap between ARM and thumb mode ?
