16 @code{@value{AS}} can assemble code for several different members of
17 the Renesas M32C family. Normally the default is to assemble code for
18 the M16C microprocessor. The @code{-m32c} option may be used to
19 change the default to the M32C microprocessor.
22 * M32C-Opts:: M32C Options
23 * M32C-Syntax:: M32C Syntax
32 The Renesas M32C version of @code{@value{AS}} has these
33 machine-dependent options:
37 @cindex @samp{-m32c} option, M32C
38 @cindex architecture options, M32C
39 @cindex M32C architecture option
40 Assemble M32C instructions.
43 @cindex @samp{-m16c} option, M16C
44 @cindex architecture options, M16C
45 @cindex M16C architecture option
46 Assemble M16C instructions (default).
49 Enable support for link-time relaxations.
52 Support H'00 style hex constants in addition to 0x00 style.

67 @cindex M32C modifiers
68 @cindex modifiers, M32C
70 The assembler supports several modifiers when using symbol addresses
71 in M32C instruction operands. The general syntax is the following:
78 @cindex symbol modifiers
83 These modifiers override the assembler's assumptions about how big a
84 symbol's address is. Normally, when it sees an operand like
85 @samp{sym[a0]} it assumes @samp{sym} may require the widest
86 displacement field (16 bits for @samp{-m16c}, 24 bits for
87 @samp{-m32c}). These modifiers tell it to assume the address will fit
88 in an 8 or 16 bit (respectively) unsigned displacement. Note that, of
89 course, if it doesn't actually fit you will get linker errors. Example:
92 mov.w %dsp8(sym)[a0],r1
93 mov.b #0,%dsp8(sym)[a0]
98 This modifier allows you to load bits 16 through 23 of a 24 bit
99 address into an 8 bit register. This is useful with, for example, the
100 M16C @samp{smovf} instruction, which expects a 20 bit address in
101 @samp{r1h} and @samp{a0}. Example:
111 Likewise, this modifier allows you to load bits 0 through 15 of a 24
112 bit address into a 16 bit register.
116 This modifier allows you to load bits 16 through 31 of a 32 bit
117 address into a 16 bit register. While the M32C family only has 24
118 bits of address space, it does support addresses in pairs of 16 bit
119 registers (like @samp{a1a0} for the @samp{lde} instruction). This
120 modifier is for loading the upper half in such cases. Example:
132 @subsection Special Characters
134 @cindex line comment character, M32C
135 @cindex M32C line comment character
136 The presence of a @samp{;} character on a line indicates the start of
137 a comment that extends to the end of that line.
139 If a @samp{#} appears as the first character of a line, the whole line
140 is treated as a comment, but in this case the line can also be a
141 logical line number directive (@pxref{Comments}) or a
142 preprocessor control command (@pxref{Preprocessing}).
144 @cindex line separator, M32C
145 @cindex statement separator, M32C
146 @cindex M32C line separator
147 The @samp{|} character can be used to separate statements on the same
