+	  The `-msave-restore` option enables the compiler to emit calls to library
+	  routines `__riscv_save_X` and `__riscv_restore_X` for preserving the
+	  callee-saved registers instead of inlining them in every function. This
+	  can reduce code size in large functions. However, it introduces extra
+	  branching overhead, which may slightly impact performance in hot paths.
+
+	  If supported by your SoC, the `Zcmp` ISA extension should be preferred.
