<p><code>as</code> now supports assembly using Intel assembler syntax.
|
||
|
|
<code>.intel_syntax</code> selects Intel mode, and <code>.att_syntax</code> switches
|
||
|
|
back to the usual AT&T mode for compatibility with the output of
|
||
|
|
<code>gcc</code>. Either of these directives may have an optional
|
||
|
|
argument, <code>prefix</code>, or <code>noprefix</code> specifying whether registers
|
||
|
|
require a ‘<samp>%</samp>’ prefix. AT&T System V/386 assembler syntax is quite
|
||
|
|
different from Intel syntax. We mention these differences because
|
||
|
|
almost all 80386 documents use Intel syntax. Notable differences
|
||
|
|
between the two syntaxes are:

<li> AT&T immediate operands are preceded by ‘<samp>$</samp>’; Intel immediate
|

operands are undelimited (Intel ‘<samp>push 4</samp>’ is AT&T ‘<samp>pushl $4</samp>’).
|
||
|
|
AT&T register operands are preceded by ‘<samp>%</samp>’; Intel register operands
|
||
|
|
are undelimited. AT&T absolute (as opposed to PC relative) jump/call
|
||
|
|
operands are prefixed by ‘<samp>*</samp>’; they are undelimited in Intel syntax.

AT&T and Intel syntax use the opposite order for source and destination
|
||
|
|
operands. Intel ‘<samp>add eax, 4</samp>’ is ‘<samp>addl $4, %eax</samp>’. The
|
||
|
|
‘<samp>source, dest</samp>’ convention is maintained for compatibility with
|
||
|
|
previous Unix assemblers. Note that ‘<samp>bound</samp>’, ‘<samp>invlpga</samp>’, and
|
||
|
|
instructions with 2 immediate operands, such as the ‘<samp>enter</samp>’
|
||
|
|
instruction, do <em>not</em> have reversed order. <a href="i386_002dBugs.html#i386_002dBugs">i386-Bugs</a>.

In AT&T syntax the size of memory operands is determined from the last
|
||
|
|
character of the instruction mnemonic. Mnemonic suffixes of ‘<samp>b</samp>’,
|
||
|
|
‘<samp>w</samp>’, ‘<samp>l</samp>’ and ‘<samp>q</samp>’ specify byte (8-bit), word (16-bit), long
|
||
|
|
(32-bit) and quadruple word (64-bit) memory references. Intel syntax accomplishes
|
||
|
|
this by prefixing memory operands (<em>not</em> the instruction mnemonics) with
|
||
|
|
‘<samp>byte ptr</samp>’, ‘<samp>word ptr</samp>’, ‘<samp>dword ptr</samp>’ and ‘<samp>qword ptr</samp>’. Thus,
|
||
|
|
Intel ‘<samp>mov al, byte ptr <var>foo</var></samp>’ is ‘<samp>movb <var>foo</var>, %al</samp>’ in AT&T
|
||
|
|
syntax.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>In 64-bit code, ‘<samp>movabs</samp>’ can be used to encode the ‘<samp>mov</samp>’
|
||
|
|
instruction with the 64-bit displacement or immediate operand.

Immediate form long jumps and calls are
|
||
|
|
‘<samp>lcall/ljmp $<var>section</var>, $<var>offset</var></samp>’ in AT&T syntax; the
|
||
|
|
Intel syntax is
|
||
|
|
‘<samp>call/jmp far <var>section</var>:<var>offset</var></samp>’. Also, the far return
|
||
|
|
instruction
|
||
|
|
is ‘<samp>lret $<var>stack-adjust</var></samp>’ in AT&T syntax; Intel syntax is
|
||
|
|
‘<samp>ret far <var>stack-adjust</var></samp>’.

The AT&T assembler does not provide support for multiple section

|
programs. Unix style systems expect all programs to be single sections.
