The RL78 has three modifiers that adjust the relocations used by the
linker:
<dl>
<dt><code>%lo16()</code><dd>
When loading a 20-bit (or wider) address into registers, this modifier
selects the 16 least significant bits.
<pre class="smallexample"> movw ax,#%lo16(_sym)
</pre>
<br><dt><code>%hi16()</code><dd>
When loading a 20-bit (or wider) address into registers, this modifier
selects the 16 most significant bits.
<pre class="smallexample"> movw ax,#%hi16(_sym)
</pre>
<br><dt><code>%hi8()</code><dd>
When loading a 20-bit (or wider) address into registers, this modifier
selects the 8 bits that would go into CS or ES (i.e. bits 23..16).
<pre class="smallexample"> mov es, #%hi8(_sym)
</pre>
</dl>
