End of line comments may be introduced by @samp{#}. Instructions consist of a leading opcode or macro name followed by whitespace and an optional comma-separated list of operands: @smallexample @var{opcode} [@var{operand}, @dots{}] @end smallexample Instructions must be separated by a newline or semicolon. There are two ways to write code: either write naked instructions, which the assembler is free to combine into VLIW bundles, or specify the VLIW bundles explicitly. Bundles are specified using curly braces: @smallexample @{ @var{add} r3,r4,r5 ; @var{add} r7,r8,r9 ; @var{lw} r10,r11 @} @end smallexample A bundle can span multiple lines. If you want to put multiple instructions on a line, whether in a bundle or not, you need to separate them with semicolons as in this example. A bundle may contain one or more instructions, up to the limit specified by the ISA (currently three). If fewer instructions are specified than the hardware supports in a bundle, the assembler inserts @code{fnop} instructions automatically. The assembler will prefer to preserve the ordering of instructions within the bundle, putting the first instruction in a lower-numbered pipeline than the next one, etc. This fact, combined with the optional use of explicit @code{fnop} or @code{nop} instructions, allows precise control over which pipeline executes each instruction. If the instructions cannot be bundled in the listed order, the assembler will automatically try to find a valid pipeline assignment. If there is no way to bundle the instructions together, the assembler reports an error. The assembler does not yet auto-bundle (automatically combine multiple instructions into one bundle), but it reserves the right to do so in the future. If you want to force an instruction to run by itself, put it in a bundle explicitly with curly braces and use @code{nop} instructions (not @code{fnop}) to fill the remaining pipeline slots in that bundle. @menu * TILEPro Opcodes:: Opcode Naming Conventions. * TILEPro Registers:: Register Naming. * TILEPro Modifiers:: Symbolic Operand Modifiers. @end menu @node TILEPro Opcodes @subsection Opcode Names @cindex TILEPro opcode names @cindex opcode names, TILEPro For a complete list of opcodes and descriptions of their semantics, see @cite{TILE Processor User Architecture Manual}, available upon request at www.tilera.com. @node TILEPro Registers @subsection Register Names @cindex TILEPro register names @cindex register names, TILEPro General-purpose registers are represented by predefined symbols of the form @samp{r@var{N}}, where @var{N} represents a number between @code{0} and @code{63}. However, the following registers have canonical names that must be used instead: @table @code @item r54 sp @item r55 lr @item r56 sn @item r57 idn0 @item r58 idn1 @item r59 udn0 @item r60 udn1 @item r61 udn2 @item r62 udn3 @item r63 zero @end table The assembler will emit a warning if a numeric name is used instead of the canonical name. The @code{.no_require_canonical_reg_names} assembler pseudo-op turns off this warning. @code{.require_canonical_reg_names} turns it back on. @node TILEPro Modifiers @subsection Symbolic Operand Modifiers @cindex TILEPro modifiers @cindex symbol modifiers, TILEPro The assembler supports several modifiers when using symbol addresses in TILEPro instruction operands. The general syntax is the following: @smallexample modifier(symbol) @end smallexample The following modifiers are supported: @table @code @item lo16 This modifier is used to load the low 16 bits of the symbol's address, sign-extended to a 32-bit value (sign-extension allows it to be range-checked against signed 16 bit immediate operands without complaint). @item hi16 This modifier is used to load the high 16 bits of the symbol's address, also sign-extended to a 32-bit value. @item ha16 @code{ha16(N)} is identical to @code{hi16(N)}, except if @code{lo16(N)} is negative it adds one to the @code{hi16(N)} value. This way @code{lo16} and @code{ha16} can be added to create any 32-bit value using @code{auli}. For example, here is how you move an arbitrary 32-bit address into r3: @smallexample moveli r3, lo16(sym) auli r3, r3, ha16(sym) @end smallexample @item got This modifier is used to load the offset of the GOT entry corresponding to the symbol. @item got_lo16 This modifier is used to load the sign-extended low 16 bits of the offset of the GOT entry corresponding to the symbol. @item got_hi16 This modifier is used to load the sign-extended high 16 bits of the offset of the GOT entry corresponding to the symbol. @item got_ha16 This modifier is like @code{got_hi16}, but it adds one if @code{got_lo16} of the input value is negative. @item plt This modifier is used for function symbols. It causes a @emph{procedure linkage table}, an array of code stubs, to be created at the time the shared object is created or linked against, together with a global offset table entry. The value is a pc-relative offset to the corresponding stub code in the procedure linkage table. This arrangement causes the run-time symbol resolver to be called to look up and set the value of the symbol the first time the function is called (at latest; depending environment variables). It is only safe to leave the symbol unresolved this way if all references are function calls. @item tls_gd This modifier is used to load the offset of the GOT entry of the symbol's TLS descriptor, to be used for general-dynamic TLS accesses. @item tls_gd_lo16 This modifier is used to load the sign-extended low 16 bits of the offset of the GOT entry of the symbol's TLS descriptor, to be used for general dynamic TLS accesses. @item tls_gd_hi16 This modifier is used to load the sign-extended high 16 bits of the offset of the GOT entry of the symbol's TLS descriptor, to be used for general dynamic TLS accesses. @item tls_gd_ha16 This modifier is like @code{tls_gd_hi16}, but it adds one to the value if @code{tls_gd_lo16} of the input value is negative. @item tls_ie This modifier is used to load the offset of the GOT entry containing the offset of the symbol's address from the TCB, to be used for initial-exec TLS accesses. @item tls_ie_lo16 This modifier is used to load the low 16 bits of the offset of the GOT entry containing the offset of the symbol's address from the TCB, to be used for initial-exec TLS accesses. @item tls_ie_hi16 This modifier is used to load the high 16 bits of the offset of the GOT entry containing the offset of the symbol's address from the TCB, to be used for initial-exec TLS accesses. @item tls_ie_ha16 This modifier is like @code{tls_ie_hi16}, but it adds one to the value if @code{tls_ie_lo16} of the input value is negative. @item tls_le This modifier is used to load the offset of the symbol's address from the TCB, to be used for local-exec TLS accesses. @item tls_le_lo16 This modifier is used to load the low 16 bits of the offset of the symbol's address from the TCB, to be used for local-exec TLS accesses. @item tls_le_hi16 This modifier is used to load the high 16 bits of the offset of the symbol's address from the TCB, to be used for local-exec TLS accesses. @item tls_le_ha16 This modifier is like @code{tls_le_hi16}, but it adds one to the value if @code{tls_le_lo16} of the input value is negative. @item tls_gd_call This modifier is used to tag an instrution as the ``call'' part of a calling sequence for a TLS GD reference of its operand. @item tls_gd_add This modifier is used to tag an instruction as the ``add'' part of a calling sequence for a TLS GD reference of its operand. @item tls_ie_load This modifier is used to tag an instruction as the ``load'' part of a calling sequence for a TLS IE reference of its operand. @end table @node TILEPro Directives @section TILEPro Directives @cindex machine directives, TILEPro @cindex TILEPro machine directives @table @code @cindex @code{.align} directive, TILEPro @item .align @var{expression} [, @var{expression}] This is the generic @var{.align} directive.
