| |
| <p>The <code>absolute-literals</code> and <code>no-absolute-literals</code> |
| directives control the absolute vs. PC-relative mode for <code>L32R</code> |
| instructions. These are relevant only for Xtensa configurations that |
| include the absolute addressing option for <code>L32R</code> instructions. |
| </p> |
| <div class="smallexample"> |
| <pre class="smallexample"> .begin [no-]absolute-literals |
| .end [no-]absolute-literals |
| </pre></div> |
| |
| <p>These directives do not change the <code>L32R</code> mode—they only cause |
| the assembler to emit the appropriate kind of relocation for <code>L32R</code> |
| instructions and to place the literal values in the appropriate section. |
| To change the <code>L32R</code> mode, the program must write the |
| <code>LITBASE</code> special register. It is the programmer’s responsibility |
| to keep track of the mode and indicate to the assembler which mode is |
| used in each region of code. |
| </p> |
| <p>If the Xtensa configuration includes the absolute <code>L32R</code> addressing |
| option, the default is to assume absolute <code>L32R</code> addressing unless |
| the ‘<samp>--no-absolute-literals</samp>’ command-line option is specified. |
| Otherwise, the default is to assume PC-relative <code>L32R</code> addressing. |
| The <code>absolute-literals</code> directive can then be used to override |
| the default determined by the command-line options. |
