That's something I've not done (my expertise is mostly in the frontends
and diagnostics).

With that caveat, I believe the official documentation is here:
  https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Machine-Desc.html

FWIW one of my colleagues wrote a series of posts about how to add an
entirely new CPU to the GNU toolchain here (originally called "ggx",
but now "moxie"):
  http://atgreen.github.io/ggx/
though that's from 2008 so might be out-of-date, and covers the whole
toolchain, not just GCC, so might be overwhelming.

Hope this is helpful
Dave
