| <a name="index-directives_002c-M32R"></a> |
| <a name="index-M32R-directives"></a> |
| |
| <p>The Renease M32R version of <code>as</code> has a few architecture |
| specific directives: |
| </p> |
| <dl compact="compact"> |
| <dd> |
| <a name="index-low-directive_002c-M32R"></a> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>low <var>expression</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>The <code>low</code> directive computes the value of its expression and |
| places the lower 16-bits of the result into the immediate-field of the |
| instruction. For example: |
| </p> |
| <div class="smallexample"> |
| <pre class="smallexample"> or3 r0, r0, #low(0x12345678) ; compute r0 = r0 | 0x5678 |
| add3, r0, r0, #low(fred) ; compute r0 = r0 + low 16-bits of address of fred |
| </pre></div> |
| |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>high <var>expression</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><a name="index-high-directive_002c-M32R"></a> |
| <p>The <code>high</code> directive computes the value of its expression and |
| places the upper 16-bits of the result into the immediate-field of the |
| instruction. For example: |
| </p> |
| <div class="smallexample"> |
| <pre class="smallexample"> seth r0, #high(0x12345678) ; compute r0 = 0x12340000 |
| seth, r0, #high(fred) ; compute r0 = upper 16-bits of address of fred |
| </pre></div> |
| |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>shigh <var>expression</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><a name="index-shigh-directive_002c-M32R"></a> |
| <p>The <code>shigh</code> directive is very similar to the <code>high</code> |
| directive. It also computes the value of its expression and places |
| the upper 16-bits of the result into the immediate-field of the |
| instruction. The difference is that <code>shigh</code> also checks to see |
| if the lower 16-bits could be interpreted as a signed number, and if |
| so it assumes that a borrow will occur from the upper-16 bits. To |
| compensate for this the <code>shigh</code> directive pre-biases the upper |
| 16 bit value by adding one to it. For example: |
| </p> |
| <p>For example: |
| </p> |
| <div class="smallexample"> |
| <pre class="smallexample"> seth r0, #shigh(0x12345678) ; compute r0 = 0x12340000 |
| seth r0, #shigh(0x00008000) ; compute r0 = 0x00010000 |
| </pre></div> |
| |
| <p>In the second example the lower 16-bits are 0x8000. If these are |
| treated as a signed value and sign extended to 32-bits then the value |
| becomes 0xffff8000. If this value is then added to 0x00010000 then |
| the result is 0x00008000. |
| </p> |
| <p>This behaviour is to allow for the different semantics of the |
| <code>or3</code> and <code>add3</code> instructions. The <code>or3</code> instruction |
| treats its 16-bit immediate argument as unsigned whereas the |
| <code>add3</code> treats its 16-bit immediate as a signed value. So for |
| example: |
| </p> |
| <div class="smallexample"> |
| <pre class="smallexample"> seth r0, #shigh(0x00008000) |
| add3 r0, r0, #low(0x00008000) |
| </pre></div> |
| |
| <p>Produces the correct result in r0, whereas: |
| </p> |
| <div class="smallexample"> |
| <pre class="smallexample"> seth r0, #shigh(0x00008000) |
| or3 r0, r0, #low(0x00008000) |
| </pre></div> |
| |
| <p>Stores 0xffff8000 into r0. |
| </p> |
| <p>Note - the <code>shigh</code> directive does not know where in the assembly |
| source code the lower 16-bits of the value are going set, so it cannot |
| check to make sure that an <code>or3</code> instruction is being used rather |
| than an <code>add3</code> instruction. It is up to the programmer to make |
| sure that correct directives are used. |

| </dd> |
| <dt><code>.m32r</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>The directive performs a similar thing as the <em>-m32r</em> command |
| line option. It tells the assembler to only accept M32R instructions |
| from now on. An instructions from later M32R architectures are |
| refused. |
| </p> |
| <a name="index-_002em32rx-directive_002c-M32RX"></a> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>.m32rx</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>The directive performs a similar thing as the <em>-m32rx</em> command |
| line option. It tells the assembler to start accepting the extra |
| instructions in the M32RX ISA as well as the ordinary M32R ISA. |

| </dd> |
| <dt><code>.little</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>The directive performs a similar thing as the <em>-little</em> command |
| line option. It tells the assembler to start producing little-endian |
| code and data. This option should be used with care as producing |
| mixed-endian binary files is fraught with danger. |
| </p> |
| <a name="index-_002ebig-directive_002c-M32RX"></a> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>.big</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>The directive performs a similar thing as the <em>-big</em> command |
