<h4 class="subsubsection">9.20.2.2 Relocatable Expression Modifiers</h4>
<a name="index-LM32-modifiers"></a>
<a name="index-syntax_002c-LM32"></a>
<p>The assembler supports several modifiers when using relocatable addresses
in LM32 instruction operands. The general syntax is the following:
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">modifier(relocatable-expression)
</pre></div>
<dl compact="compact">
<dd><a name="index-symbol-modifiers-1"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>lo</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>This modifier allows you to use bits 0 through 15 of
an address expression as 16 bit relocatable expression.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>hi</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>This modifier allows you to use bits 16 through 23 of an address expression
as 16 bit relocatable expression.
</p>
<p>For example
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">ori r4, r4, lo(sym+10)
orhi r4, r4, hi(sym+10)
</pre></div>
</dd>
<dt><code>gp</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>This modified creates a 16-bit relocatable expression that is
the offset of the symbol from the global pointer.
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">mva r4, gp(sym)
</pre></div>
</dd>
<dt><code>got</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>This modifier places a symbol in the GOT and creates a 16-bit
relocatable expression that is the offset into the GOT of this
symbol.
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">lw r4, (gp+got(sym))
</pre></div>
</dd>
<dt><code>gotofflo16</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>This modifier allows you to use the bits 0 through 15 of an
address which is an offset from the GOT.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>gotoffhi16</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>This modifier allows you to use the bits 16 through 31 of an
address which is an offset from the GOT.
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">orhi r4, r4, gotoffhi16(lsym)
addi r4, r4, gotofflo16(lsym)
</pre></div>
</dd>
</dl>
