|
|
@cindex SPARC architectures
|
|
The SPARC chip family includes several successive levels, using the same
|
|
core instruction set, but including a few additional instructions at
|
|
each level. There are exceptions to this however. For details on what
|
|
instructions each variant supports, please see the chip's architecture
|
|
reference manual.
|
|
|
|
By default, @code{@value{AS}} assumes the core instruction set (SPARC
|
|
v6), but ``bumps'' the architecture level as needed: it switches to
|
|
successively higher architectures as it encounters instructions that
|
|
only exist in the higher levels.
|
|
|
|
If not configured for SPARC v9 (@code{sparc64-*-*}) GAS will not bump
|
|
passed sparclite by default, an option must be passed to enable the
|
|
v9 instructions.
|
|
|
|
GAS treats sparclite as being compatible with v8, unless an architecture
|
|
is explicitly requested. SPARC v9 is always incompatible with sparclite.
|
|
|
|
@c The order here is the same as the order of enum sparc_opcode_arch_val
|
|
@c to give the user a sense of the order of the "bumping".
|
|
|
|
@table @code
|
|
@kindex -Av6
|
|
@kindex Av7
|
|
@kindex -Av8
|
|
@kindex -Asparclet
|
|
@kindex -Asparclite
|

@kindex -Av9

|
|
@item -Av6 | -Av7 | -Av8 | -Asparclet | -Asparclite
|
|
@itemx -Av8plus | -Av8plusa | -Av9 | -Av9a
|
|
Use one of the @samp{-A} options to select one of the SPARC
|
|
architectures explicitly. If you select an architecture explicitly,
|
|
@code{@value{AS}} reports a fatal error if it encounters an instruction
|
|
or feature requiring an incompatible or higher level.
|
|
|
|
@samp{-Av8plus} and @samp{-Av8plusa} select a 32 bit environment.
|
|
|
|
@samp{-Av9} and @samp{-Av9a} select a 64 bit environment and are not
|
|
available unless GAS is explicitly configured with 64 bit environment
|
|
support.
|
|
|
|
@samp{-Av8plusa} and @samp{-Av9a} enable the SPARC V9 instruction set with
|
|
UltraSPARC extensions.
|
|
|
|
@item -xarch=v8plus | -xarch=v8plusa
|
|
For compatibility with the Solaris v9 assembler. These options are
|
|
equivalent to -Av8plus and -Av8plusa, respectively.
|
|
|
|
@item -bump
|
|
Warn whenever it is necessary to switch to another level.
|
|
If an architecture level is explicitly requested, GAS will not issue
|
|
warnings until that level is reached, and will then bump the level
|
|
as required (except between incompatible levels).
|
|
|
|
@item -32 | -64
|
|
Select the word size, either 32 bits or 64 bits.
|
|
These options are only available with the ELF object file format,
|
|
and require that the necessary BFD support has been included.

@section Enforcing aligned data

|
@cindex data alignment on SPARC
|
|
@cindex SPARC data alignment
|
|
SPARC GAS normally permits data to be misaligned. For example, it
|
|
permits the @code{.long} pseudo-op to be used on a byte boundary.
|
|
However, the native SunOS and Solaris assemblers issue an error when
|
|
they see misaligned data.
|
|
|
|
@kindex --enforce-aligned-data
|
|
You can use the @code{--enforce-aligned-data} option to make SPARC GAS
|
|
also issue an error about misaligned data, just as the SunOS and Solaris
|
|
assemblers do.
|
|
|
|
The @code{--enforce-aligned-data} option is not the default because gcc
|
|
issues misaligned data pseudo-ops when it initializes certain packed
|
|
data structures (structures defined using the @code{packed} attribute).
|
|
You may have to assemble with GAS in order to initialize packed data
|
|
structures in your own code.

@section Sparc Machine Directives
|
|
|
|
@cindex SPARC machine directives
|
|
@cindex machine directives, SPARC
|
|
The Sparc version of @code{@value{AS}} supports the following additional
|
|
machine directives:
|
|
|
|
@table @code
|
|
@cindex @code{align} directive, SPARC
|
|
@item .align
|
|
This must be followed by the desired alignment in bytes.
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{common} directive, SPARC
|
|
@item .common
|
|
This must be followed by a symbol name, a positive number, and
|
|
@code{"bss"}. This behaves somewhat like @code{.comm}, but the
|
|
syntax is different.
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{half} directive, SPARC
|
|
@item .half
|
|
This is functionally identical to @code{.short}.
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{nword} directive, SPARC
|
|
@item .nword
|
|
On the Sparc, the @code{.nword} directive produces native word sized value,
|
|
ie. if assembling with -32 it is equivalent to @code{.word}, if assembling
|
|
with -64 it is equivalent to @code{.xword}.
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{proc} directive, SPARC
|
|
@item .proc
|
|
This directive is ignored. Any text following it on the same
|
|
line is also ignored.
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{register} directive, SPARC
|
|
@item .register
|
|
This directive declares use of a global application or system register.
|
|
It must be followed by a register name %g2, %g3, %g6 or %g7, comma and
|
|
the symbol name for that register. If symbol name is @code{#scratch},
|
|
it is a scratch register, if it is @code{#ignore}, it just suppresses any
|
|
errors about using undeclared global register, but does not emit any
|
|
information about it into the object file. This can be useful e.g. if you
|
|
save the register before use and restore it after.
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{reserve} directive, SPARC
|
|
@item .reserve
|
|
This must be followed by a symbol name, a positive number, and
|
|
@code{"bss"}. This behaves somewhat like @code{.lcomm}, but the
|
|
syntax is different.
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{seg} directive, SPARC
|
|
@item .seg
|
|
This must be followed by @code{"text"}, @code{"data"}, or
|
|
@code{"data1"}. It behaves like @code{.text}, @code{.data}, or
|
|
@code{.data 1}.
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{skip} directive, SPARC
|
|
@item .skip
|
|
This is functionally identical to the @code{.space} directive.
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{word} directive, SPARC
|
|
@item .word
|
|
On the Sparc, the @code{.word} directive produces 32 bit values,
|
|
instead of the 16 bit values it produces on many other machines.
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{xword} directive, SPARC
|
|
@item .xword
|
|
On the Sparc V9 processor, the @code{.xword} directive produces
|
|
64 bit values.
