@section Notes
|
|
As a back end for @sc{gnu} @sc{cc} @code{@value{AS}} has been throughly tested and should
|
|
work extremely well. We have tested it only minimally on hand written assembly
|
|
code and no one has tested it much on the assembly output from the HP
|
|
compilers.
|
|
|
|
The format of the debugging sections has changed since the original
|
|
@code{@value{AS}} port (version 1.3X) was released; therefore,
|
|
you must rebuild all HPPA objects and libraries with the new
|
|
assembler so that you can debug the final executable.
|
|
|
|
The HPPA @code{@value{AS}} port generates a small subset of the relocations
|
|
available in the SOM and ELF object file formats. Additional relocation
|
|
support will be added as it becomes necessary.
|
|
|
|
@node HPPA Options
|
|
@section Options
|
|
@code{@value{AS}} has no machine-dependent command-line options for the HPPA.
|

|
@cindex HPPA Syntax
|
|
@node HPPA Syntax
|
|
@section Syntax
|
|
The assembler syntax closely follows the HPPA instruction set
|
|
reference manual; assembler directives and general syntax closely follow the
|
|
HPPA assembly language reference manual, with a few noteworthy differences.
|
|
|
|
First, a colon may immediately follow a label definition. This is
|
|
simply for compatibility with how most assembly language programmers
|
|
write code.
|
|
|
|
Some obscure expression parsing problems may affect hand written code which
|
|
uses the @code{spop} instructions, or code which makes significant
|
|
use of the @code{!} line separator.
|
|
|
|
@code{@value{AS}} is much less forgiving about missing arguments and other
|
|
similar oversights than the HP assembler. @code{@value{AS}} notifies you
|
|
of missing arguments as syntax errors; this is regarded as a feature, not a
|
|
bug.
|
|
|
|
Finally, @code{@value{AS}} allows you to use an external symbol without
|
|
explicitly importing the symbol. @emph{Warning:} in the future this will be
|
|
an error for HPPA targets.
|
|
|
|
Special characters for HPPA targets include:
|
|
|
|
@samp{;} is the line comment character.
|
|
|
|
@samp{!} can be used instead of a newline to separate statements.
|
|
|
|
Since @samp{$} has no special meaning, you may use it in symbol names.
|
|
|
|

@section HPPA Assembler Directives
|
|
|
|
@code{@value{AS}} for the HPPA supports many additional directives for
|
|
compatibility with the native assembler. This section describes them only
|
|
briefly. For detailed information on HPPA-specific assembler directives, see
|
|
@cite{HP9000 Series 800 Assembly Language Reference Manual} (HP 92432-90001).
|
|
|
|
@cindex HPPA directives not supported
|
|
@code{@value{AS}} does @emph{not} support the following assembler directives
|
|
described in the HP manual:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
.endm .liston
|
|
.enter .locct
|
|
.leave .macro
|
|
.listoff
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{.param} on HPPA
|
|
Beyond those implemented for compatibility, @code{@value{AS}} supports one
|
|
additional assembler directive for the HPPA: @code{.param}. It conveys
|
|
register argument locations for static functions. Its syntax closely follows
|
|
the @code{.export} directive.
|
|
|
|
@cindex HPPA-only directives
|
|
These are the additional directives in @code{@value{AS}} for the HPPA:
|
|
|
|
@table @code
|
|
@item .block @var{n}
|
|
@itemx .blockz @var{n}
|
|
Reserve @var{n} bytes of storage, and initialize them to zero.
|
|
|
|
@item .call
|
|
Mark the beginning of a procedure call. Only the special case with @emph{no
|
|
arguments} is allowed.
|
|
|
|
@item .callinfo [ @var{param}=@var{value}, @dots{} ] [ @var{flag}, @dots{} ]
|
|
Specify a number of parameters and flags that define the environment for a
|
|
procedure.
|
|
|
|
@var{param} may be any of @samp{frame} (frame size), @samp{entry_gr} (end of
|
|
general register range), @samp{entry_fr} (end of float register range),
|
|
@samp{entry_sr} (end of space register range).
|
|
|
|
The values for @var{flag} are @samp{calls} or @samp{caller} (proc has
|
|
subroutines), @samp{no_calls} (proc does not call subroutines), @samp{save_rp}
|
|
(preserve return pointer), @samp{save_sp} (proc preserves stack pointer),
|
|
@samp{no_unwind} (do not unwind this proc), @samp{hpux_int} (proc is interrupt
|
|
routine).
|
|
|
|
@item .code
|
|
Assemble into the standard section called @samp{$TEXT$}, subsection
|
|
@samp{$CODE$}.
|
|
|
|
@ifset SOM
|
|
@item .copyright "@var{string}"
|
|
In the SOM object format, insert @var{string} into the object code, marked as a
|
|
copyright string.
|
|
@end ifset
|
|
|
|
@ifset ELF
|
|
@item .copyright "@var{string}"
|
|
In the ELF object format, insert @var{string} into the object code, marked as a
|
|
version string.
|
|
@end ifset
|
|
|
|
@item .enter
|
|
Not yet supported; the assembler rejects programs containing this directive.
|
|
|
|
@item .entry
|
|
Mark the beginning of a procedure.
|
|
|
|
@item .exit
|
|
Mark the end of a procedure.
|
|
|
|
@item .export @var{name} [ ,@var{typ} ] [ ,@var{param}=@var{r} ]
|
|
Make a procedure @var{name} available to callers. @var{typ}, if present, must
|
|
be one of @samp{absolute}, @samp{code} (ELF only, not SOM), @samp{data},
|
|
@samp{entry}, @samp{data}, @samp{entry}, @samp{millicode}, @samp{plabel},
|
|
@samp{pri_prog}, or @samp{sec_prog}.
|
|
|
|
@var{param}, if present, provides either relocation information for the
|
|
procedure arguments and result, or a privilege level. @var{param} may be
|
|
@samp{argw@var{n}} (where @var{n} ranges from @code{0} to @code{3}, and
|
|
indicates one of four one-word arguments); @samp{rtnval} (the procedure's
|
|
result); or @samp{priv_lev} (privilege level). For arguments or the result,
|
|
@var{r} specifies how to relocate, and must be one of @samp{no} (not
|
|
relocatable), @samp{gr} (argument is in general register), @samp{fr} (in
|
|
floating point register), or @samp{fu} (upper half of float register).
|
|
For @samp{priv_lev}, @var{r} is an integer.
|
|
|
|
@item .half @var{n}
|
|
Define a two-byte integer constant @var{n}; synonym for the portable
|
|
@code{@value{AS}} directive @code{.short}.
|
|
|
|
@item .import @var{name} [ ,@var{typ} ]
|
|
Converse of @code{.export}; make a procedure available to call. The arguments
|
|
use the same conventions as the first two arguments for @code{.export}.
|
|
|
|
@item .label @var{name}
|
|
Define @var{name} as a label for the current assembly location.
|
|
|
|
@item .leave
|
|
Not yet supported; the assembler rejects programs containing this directive.
|
|
|
|
@item .origin @var{lc}
|
|
Advance location counter to @var{lc}. Synonym for the @code{@value{AS}}
|
|
portable directive @code{.org}.
|
|
|
|
@item .param @var{name} [ ,@var{typ} ] [ ,@var{param}=@var{r} ]
|
|
@c Not in HP manual; @sc{gnu} HPPA extension
|
|
Similar to @code{.export}, but used for static procedures.
|
|
|
|
@item .proc
|
|
Use preceding the first statement of a procedure.
|
|
|
|
@item .procend
|
|
Use following the last statement of a procedure.
|
|
|
|
@item @var{label} .reg @var{expr}
|
|
@c ?? Not in HP manual (Jan 1988 vn)
|
|
Synonym for @code{.equ}; define @var{label} with the absolute expression
|
|
@var{expr} as its value.
|
|
|
|
@item .space @var{secname} [ ,@var{params} ]
|
|
Switch to section @var{secname}, creating a new section by that name if
|
|
necessary. You may only use @var{params} when creating a new section, not
|
|
when switching to an existing one. @var{secname} may identify a section by
|
|
number rather than by name.
|
|
|
|
If specified, the list @var{params} declares attributes of the section,
|
|
identified by keywords. The keywords recognized are @samp{spnum=@var{exp}}
|
|
(identify this section by the number @var{exp}, an absolute expression),
|
|
@samp{sort=@var{exp}} (order sections according to this sort key when linking;
|
|
@var{exp} is an absolute expression), @samp{unloadable} (section contains no
|
|
loadable data), @samp{notdefined} (this section defined elsewhere), and
|
|
@samp{private} (data in this section not available to other programs).
|
|
|
|
@item .spnum @var{secnam}
|
|
@c ?? Not in HP manual (Jan 1988)
|
|
Allocate four bytes of storage, and initialize them with the section number of
|
|
the section named @var{secnam}. (You can define the section number with the
|
|
HPPA @code{.space} directive.)
|
|
|
|
@cindex @code{string} directive on HPPA
|
|
@item .string "@var{str}"
|
|
Copy the characters in the string @var{str} to the object file.
|
|
@xref{Strings,,Strings}, for information on escape sequences you can use in
|
|
@code{@value{AS}} strings.
|
|
|
|
@emph{Warning!} The HPPA version of @code{.string} differs from the
|
|
usual @code{@value{AS}} definition: it does @emph{not} write a zero byte
|
|
after copying @var{str}.
|
|
|
|
@item .stringz "@var{str}"
|
|
Like @code{.string}, but appends a zero byte after copying @var{str} to object
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
@item .subspa @var{name} [ ,@var{params} ]
|
|
@itemx .nsubspa @var{name} [ ,@var{params} ]
|
|
Similar to @code{.space}, but selects a subsection @var{name} within the
|
|
current section. You may only specify @var{params} when you create a
|
|
subsection (in the first instance of @code{.subspa} for this @var{name}).
|
|
|
|
If specified, the list @var{params} declares attributes of the subsection,
|
|
identified by keywords. The keywords recognized are @samp{quad=@var{expr}}
|
|
(``quadrant'' for this subsection), @samp{align=@var{expr}} (alignment for
|
|
beginning of this subsection; a power of two), @samp{access=@var{expr}} (value
|
|
for ``access rights'' field), @samp{sort=@var{expr}} (sorting order for this
|
|
subspace in link), @samp{code_only} (subsection contains only code),
|
|
@samp{unloadable} (subsection cannot be loaded into memory), @samp{comdat}
|
|
(subsection is comdat), @samp{common} (subsection is common block),
|
|
@samp{dup_comm} (subsection may have duplicate names), or @samp{zero}
|
|
(subsection is all zeros, do not write in object file).
|
|
|
|
@code{.nsubspa} always creates a new subspace with the given name, even
|
|
if one with the same name already exists.
|
|
|
|
@samp{comdat}, @samp{common} and @samp{dup_comm} can be used to implement
|
|
various flavors of one-only support when using the SOM linker. The SOM
|
|
linker only supports specific combinations of these flags. The details
|
|
are not documented. A brief description is provided here.
|
|
|
|
@samp{comdat} provides a form of linkonce support. It is useful for
|
|
both code and data subspaces. A @samp{comdat} subspace has a key symbol
|
|
marked by the @samp{is_comdat} flag or @samp{ST_COMDAT}. Only the first
|
|
subspace for any given key is selected. The key symbol becomes universal
|
|
in shared links. This is similar to the behavior of @samp{secondary_def}
|
|
symbols.
|
|
|
|
@samp{common} provides Fortran named common support. It is only useful
|
|
for data subspaces. Symbols with the flag @samp{is_common} retain this
|
|
flag in shared links. Referencing a @samp{is_common} symbol in a shared
|
|
library from outside the library doesn't work. Thus, @samp{is_common}
|
|
symbols must be output whenever they are needed.
|
|
|
|
@samp{common} and @samp{dup_comm} together provide Cobol common support.
|
|
The subspaces in this case must all be the same length. Otherwise, this
|
|
support is similar to the Fortran common support.
|
|
|
|
@samp{dup_comm} by itself provides a type of one-only support for code.
|
|
Only the first @samp{dup_comm} subspace is selected. There is a rather
|
|
complex algorithm to compare subspaces. Code symbols marked with the
|
|
@samp{dup_common} flag are hidden. This support was intended for "C++
|
|
duplicate inlines".
|
|
|
|
A simplified technique is used to mark the flags of symbols based on
|
|
the flags of their subspace. A symbol with the scope SS_UNIVERSAL and
|
|
type ST_ENTRY, ST_CODE or ST_DATA is marked with the corresponding
|
|
settings of @samp{comdat}, @samp{common} and @samp{dup_comm} from the
|
|
subspace, respectively. This avoids having to introduce additional
|
|
directives to mark these symbols. The HP assembler sets @samp{is_common}
|
|
from @samp{common}. However, it doesn't set the @samp{dup_common} from
|
|
@samp{dup_comm}. It doesn't have @samp{comdat} support.
|
|
|
|
@item .version "@var{str}"
|
|
Write @var{str} as version identifier in object code.
