<p><a name="index-insn-attributes-3719"></a><a name="index-instruction-attributes-3720"></a>
In addition to describing the instruction supported by the target machine,
the <samp><span class="file">md</span></samp> file also defines a group of <dfn>attributes</dfn> and a set of
values for each. Every generated insn is assigned a value for each attribute.
One possible attribute would be the effect that the insn has on the machine's
condition code. This attribute can then be used by <code>NOTICE_UPDATE_CC</code>
to track the condition codes.
