| <h4 class="subsection">17.20.10 Assembler Commands for Alignment</h4> |
| |
| <p>This describes commands for alignment. |
| </p> |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-JUMP_005fALIGN"></a>Macro: <strong>JUMP_ALIGN</strong> <em>(<var>label</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>The alignment (log base 2) to put in front of <var>label</var>, which is |
| a common destination of jumps and has no fallthru incoming edge. |
| </p> |
| <p>This macro need not be defined if you don’t want any special alignment |
| to be done at such a time. Most machine descriptions do not currently |
| define the macro. |
| </p> |
| <p>Unless it’s necessary to inspect the <var>label</var> parameter, it is better |
| to set the variable <var>align_jumps</var> in the target’s |
| <code>TARGET_OPTION_OVERRIDE</code>. Otherwise, you should try to honor the user’s |
| selection in <var>align_jumps</var> in a <code>JUMP_ALIGN</code> implementation. |
| </p></dd></dl> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fASM_005fJUMP_005fALIGN_005fMAX_005fSKIP"></a>Target Hook: <em>int</em> <strong>TARGET_ASM_JUMP_ALIGN_MAX_SKIP</strong> <em>(rtx_insn *<var>label</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>The maximum number of bytes to skip before <var>label</var> when applying |
| <code>JUMP_ALIGN</code>. This works only if |
| <code>ASM_OUTPUT_MAX_SKIP_ALIGN</code> is defined. |
| </p></dd></dl> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-LABEL_005fALIGN_005fAFTER_005fBARRIER"></a>Macro: <strong>LABEL_ALIGN_AFTER_BARRIER</strong> <em>(<var>label</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>The alignment (log base 2) to put in front of <var>label</var>, which follows |
| a <code>BARRIER</code>. |
| </p> |
| <p>This macro need not be defined if you don’t want any special alignment |
| to be done at such a time. Most machine descriptions do not currently |
| define the macro. |
| </p></dd></dl> |

| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fASM_005fLABEL_005fALIGN_005fAFTER_005fBARRIER_005fMAX_005fSKIP"></a>Target Hook: <em>int</em> <strong>TARGET_ASM_LABEL_ALIGN_AFTER_BARRIER_MAX_SKIP</strong> <em>(rtx_insn *<var>label</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>The maximum number of bytes to skip before <var>label</var> when applying |
| <code>LABEL_ALIGN_AFTER_BARRIER</code>. This works only if |
| <code>ASM_OUTPUT_MAX_SKIP_ALIGN</code> is defined. |
| </p></dd></dl> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-LOOP_005fALIGN"></a>Macro: <strong>LOOP_ALIGN</strong> <em>(<var>label</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>The alignment (log base 2) to put in front of <var>label</var> that heads |
| a frequently executed basic block (usually the header of a loop). |
| </p> |
| <p>This macro need not be defined if you don’t want any special alignment |
| to be done at such a time. Most machine descriptions do not currently |
| define the macro. |
| </p> |
| <p>Unless it’s necessary to inspect the <var>label</var> parameter, it is better |
| to set the variable <code>align_loops</code> in the target’s |
| <code>TARGET_OPTION_OVERRIDE</code>. Otherwise, you should try to honor the user’s |
| selection in <code>align_loops</code> in a <code>LOOP_ALIGN</code> implementation. |
| </p></dd></dl> |

| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fASM_005fLOOP_005fALIGN_005fMAX_005fSKIP"></a>Target Hook: <em>int</em> <strong>TARGET_ASM_LOOP_ALIGN_MAX_SKIP</strong> <em>(rtx_insn *<var>label</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>The maximum number of bytes to skip when applying <code>LOOP_ALIGN</code> to |
| <var>label</var>. This works only if <code>ASM_OUTPUT_MAX_SKIP_ALIGN</code> is |
| defined. |
| </p></dd></dl> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-LABEL_005fALIGN"></a>Macro: <strong>LABEL_ALIGN</strong> <em>(<var>label</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>The alignment (log base 2) to put in front of <var>label</var>. |
| If <code>LABEL_ALIGN_AFTER_BARRIER</code> / <code>LOOP_ALIGN</code> specify a different alignment, |
| the maximum of the specified values is used. |
| </p> |
| <p>Unless it’s necessary to inspect the <var>label</var> parameter, it is better |
| to set the variable <code>align_labels</code> in the target’s |
| <code>TARGET_OPTION_OVERRIDE</code>. Otherwise, you should try to honor the user’s |
| selection in <code>align_labels</code> in a <code>LABEL_ALIGN</code> implementation. |
| </p></dd></dl> |

| <dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fASM_005fLABEL_005fALIGN_005fMAX_005fSKIP"></a>Target Hook: <em>int</em> <strong>TARGET_ASM_LABEL_ALIGN_MAX_SKIP</strong> <em>(rtx_insn *<var>label</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>The maximum number of bytes to skip when applying <code>LABEL_ALIGN</code> |
| to <var>label</var>. This works only if <code>ASM_OUTPUT_MAX_SKIP_ALIGN</code> |
| is defined. |
| </p></dd></dl> |

| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-ASM_005fOUTPUT_005fSKIP"></a>Macro: <strong>ASM_OUTPUT_SKIP</strong> <em>(<var>stream</var>, <var>nbytes</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>A C statement to output to the stdio stream <var>stream</var> an assembler |
| instruction to advance the location counter by <var>nbytes</var> bytes. |
| Those bytes should be zero when loaded. <var>nbytes</var> will be a C |
| expression of type <code>unsigned HOST_WIDE_INT</code>. |
| </p></dd></dl> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-ASM_005fNO_005fSKIP_005fIN_005fTEXT"></a>Macro: <strong>ASM_NO_SKIP_IN_TEXT</strong></dt> |
| <dd><p>Define this macro if <code>ASM_OUTPUT_SKIP</code> should not be used in the |
| text section because it fails to put zeros in the bytes that are skipped. |
| This is true on many Unix systems, where the pseudo–op to skip bytes |
| produces no-op instructions rather than zeros when used in the text |
| section. |
| </p></dd></dl> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-ASM_005fOUTPUT_005fALIGN"></a>Macro: <strong>ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGN</strong> <em>(<var>stream</var>, <var>power</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>A C statement to output to the stdio stream <var>stream</var> an assembler |
| command to advance the location counter to a multiple of 2 to the |
| <var>power</var> bytes. <var>power</var> will be a C expression of type <code>int</code>. |
| </p></dd></dl> |

| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-ASM_005fOUTPUT_005fALIGN_005fWITH_005fNOP"></a>Macro: <strong>ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGN_WITH_NOP</strong> <em>(<var>stream</var>, <var>power</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>Like <code>ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGN</code>, except that the “nop” instruction is used |
| for padding, if necessary. |
| </p></dd></dl> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-ASM_005fOUTPUT_005fMAX_005fSKIP_005fALIGN"></a>Macro: <strong>ASM_OUTPUT_MAX_SKIP_ALIGN</strong> <em>(<var>stream</var>, <var>power</var>, <var>max_skip</var>)</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>A C statement to output to the stdio stream <var>stream</var> an assembler |
| command to advance the location counter to a multiple of 2 to the |
| <var>power</var> bytes, but only if <var>max_skip</var> or fewer bytes are needed to |
| satisfy the alignment request. <var>power</var> and <var>max_skip</var> will be |
| a C expression of type <code>int</code>. |
